The selectmen on July 21 approved the public site and building commission’s recommendation to install a two-ply roof as part of the Bethel High School roof project.
A committee member said choosing the thicker roof would be a minimal increase in cost — "less than $200,000" and under 10% of the total project cost, according to the discussion. The chair moved to approve the commission’s recommendation; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The board directed staff to proceed with implementation consistent with the commission’s recommendation.
No additional funding specifics or contract awards were provided in the meeting transcript; the board’s approval was a recommendation-acceptance step to proceed with the specified roofing approach.
