Committee reviews 'shovel-ready' Revision Energy solar proposal for safety center, notes roof and procurement needs
Summary
The committee reviewed a Revision Energy rooftop solar proposal for the town safety center, noted that battery storage was not included, and said the project will need roof replacement quotes and three competitive proposals before the town can proceed.
Committee members described Revision Energy's submission as "shovel-ready" and said it contains the information needed to build financials for the Select Board packet. One member summarized: "If you actually want to do this right now, we have all the information we need. We could start doing it," reflecting the vendor's readiness claims.
Members emphasized constraints and next steps: the revision quote did not include batteries (a committee member noted backup generator capacity), roof-replacement costs were supplied by the town's roof vendor, and procurement rules will require three competitive proposals before the town contracts for the work. The committee asked for a one- to two-page summary explaining scope, roof needs, cost assumptions and payback analysis for inclusion in the August CIP packet.
