Board approves $550,000 Natchaug boiler replacement; funds to come from State Education Funds
Summary
The Board of Finance approved a $550,000 expenditure to replace the Natchaug boiler and noted the cost will be covered by State Education Funds rather than local taxpayers.
The Town of Windham Board of Finance approved a $550,000 expenditure for replacement of the Natchaug boiler at its July 1 special meeting. Board minutes state that the funds for the project "would be coming from State Education Funds and not taxpayers." A motion to approve the expenditure was made and seconded and the motion passed.
The minutes do not name who moved or seconded the motion, nor do they record individual vote tallies; they record only that the motion passed. The board did not specify the account line or grant program within the State Education Funds that will cover the work. Staff present at the meeting included Christian Johnson, Director of Finance, who would typically handle fiscal details for the project.
The replacement work is expected to proceed under the approved funding authorization; the board provided no further implementation timeline in the minutes.
