State reduces BCRC reimbursement; town loses $700 of a $10,000 grant
Summary
Board learned the state denied a $1,000 BCRC reimbursement for July 2023 work filed past the deadline; staff said the town will receive $9,300 instead of $10,000 and still owes the BCRC bill to be paid from town funds.
Town staff (S5) told the board that paperwork for a BCRC reimbursement was filed late and the state declined payment for $1,000 of the claim. "So now instead of getting the full $10,000 grant we're only gonna get $9,300," S5 reported, and the town must still pay the BCRC invoice out of local funds.
Board members discussed contacting their state representative for assistance and whether to sign the reimbursement paperwork that night while holding submission pending further action; Chair (S2) noted the form deadline referenced in the discussion as December 30. Staff removed the BCRC bill from the reimbursement request and presented a revised form for the board to sign.
