Some residents urge rejection, call proposed work renovations not stabilization
Summary
At the meeting several residents criticized the district’s framing of the project as stabilization, urged a multi-question referendum or rejection, and repeatedly requested hard data on movement and costs.
Resident Richard Kelsky told the board he believed the district was labeling renovations as stabilization and urged voters to reject the proposal unless more facts are provided. Kelsky suggested the referendum contain three distinct questions and repeatedly requested a detailed breakdown separating stabilization costs from renovation work.
Kelsky and other residents pressed the board to publish crack‑meter readings and to disclose where borings were taken. Kelsky said he had "no confidence" that the building had settled or that monitoring had been sufficient, and asked when the crack meters were installed. The meeting transcript shows consultants answered public queries but does not record the board adopting Kelsky’s suggested referendum structure or publishing the requested numerical data.
