Board approves FY26 GIA paperwork and to pursue municipal planning grant for hazard mitigation
Summary
The board approved local paperwork to receive an $11,500 FY26 GIA grant from the agency of transportation and voted to pursue a Municipal Planning Grant (MPG) to fund the required local hazard mitigation plan; MPG deadline is Nov. 1.
Members reviewed and approved paperwork to accept a FY26 GIA grant for $11,500 from the agency of transportation; board members noted the need to sign the paperwork to receive the funds. One member reminded the group that last year's award was smaller and that preapproval for certain DIA work must be handled in a timely way.
Separately, the board voted to pursue a Municipal Planning Grant to fund the town's required local hazard mitigation-plan update (estimated cost $7,000–$8,000). A board member noted the MPG application deadline is Nov. 1 and said the regional commission will assist with the application; the motion to pursue the MPG was seconded and approved by voice vote.
