Committee eyes cafeteria AV upgrades and replacement of aging music risers as safety priority
Summary
June summarized capital needs including AV improvements for the middle/high school cafeteria and replacement of old music risers described as a safety issue; the district plans to cover the work from existing dollars with DPW and technology support.
June presented budget highlights and unanticipated facilities needs, citing DPW support that helped the district avoid large removal costs for an outdated wellness center and noting water damage repairs in the music rooms. She flagged music risers as a safety priority that did not make the most recent capital outlay vote and said the district will seek to cover replacements internally.
"This is a safety issue," June said regarding the music risers, urging the committee to consider covering the expense. The superintendent and technology staff also described bids and plans for cafeteria audiovisual and acoustical improvements to make the cafeteria a more usable public and professional‑development space; the district expects to fund the upgrades from existing lines and with town department collaboration.
