Board approves $22,870 for supplemental phase‑2 assessment at Pleasant Street Auto Care site
Summary
The RPC approved $22,870 in Brownfields funding to complete a supplemental phase‑2 soil/site investigation at the former Pleasant Street Auto Care site to support proposed mixed‑use redevelopment.
The board approved a Brownfields funding request to supplement a phase‑2 environmental assessment at the former Pleasant Street Auto Care property, authorizing $22,870 for additional testing requested by the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation.
Staff said the property owner funded an initial phase‑1 and phase‑2 assessment, but DEC recommended additional testing to determine contamination boundaries; the Brownfields committee recommended the supplemental investigation to clear the way for mixed‑use redevelopment including residential and commercial uses. A board motion to award $22,870 carried by voice vote.
Next steps: the supplemental testing will proceed and results will determine remediation needs and whether the redevelopment proposal can move forward.
