Summary

Board approved publishing an RFP to scrape, repair and repaint the Town Hall exterior and asked staff to coordinate with the state historic-preservation office to ensure proper treatment of heritage features.

A late addition to the agenda proposed issuing a request for proposals (RFP) to repaint the Town Hall exterior, including scraping loose paint, replacing damaged wood, and using special equipment for high areas. The board approved publication of the RFP and asked staff to coordinate with the Vermont historic preservation office (or heritage preservation group) to ensure any historical-material requirements are met.

Board members noted the painting had been awarded previously but deferred after the flood; the project is sizable and may require specialized equipment. The board instructed staff to prepare the RFP for publication and to include language about following preservation guidance where applicable.

The board approved the measure by voice vote and directed the select board liaison and town staff to finalize the RFP and scope for post-flood repairs and repainting.
