Trust approves $25,550 Phase 2 environmental study for 91 B Main Street
Summary
Trustees voted to fund a Phase 2 environmental assessment for 91 B Main Street after MassDOT gave conditional approval; trustees discussed a required access agreement and agreed to cover the $25,550 consultant quote.
Town staff reported that MassDOT has approved the request to proceed to a Phase 2 environmental assessment for 91 B Main Street but requires a formal access agreement between the town and MassDOT before fieldwork can begin. "MassDOT approved the request to proceed with the phase 2 environmental, but they have requested just a formal access agreement be made between the town and MassDOT," Kristen said.
Staff presented a consultant quote of $25,550 to perform the Phase 2 study (the packet referenced VHB; the transcript also alternately cited BHB). Trustees discussed whether to request cost-sharing from MassDOT given the state's sales price and constraints, but concluded that the trust should fund the assessment as due diligence. The motion to fund the Phase 2 assessment was moved and approved by roll call.
