Summary
Members agreed to prepare an application for a town highway grant potentially worth $175,000 and discussed committing a $100,000 local match; members noted application timing and project selection are needed before the mid-April deadline.
Leicester selectboard members discussed pursuing a state town highway grant that could award up to $175,000, with the town providing a local match of $100,000. Members discussed the deadline and agreed to identify project priorities and prepare the application, with some suggesting the board aim to finalize choices earlier in March to meet internal scheduling needs.
Committee member (S6) said the town has the local funds to meet the match and recommended applying for the full $175,000 amount and using the town’s budgeted $100,000 as match. Members noted grant awards are competitive and not guaranteed, and they agreed to coordinate a project list for submission.
