New Dorset Town Office more than 85% complete; board approves pay request
Summary
The board reported the new town office is over 85% complete with a mid‑August move-in goal and approved the listed pay request by a 4-0 vote. Minutes note the project budget is tracking closer to estimates and contingency funds may cover pending change orders.
The Select Board received a project update that the new Dorset Town Office construction is over 85% complete and that a mid‑August move-in remains the target. Sidewalks, parking and landscaping work were reported as being installed that week.
By motion, the board approved the pay request noted in the minutes (motion moved by Frank Parent; seconded by Jim Salsgiver; vote recorded as 4-0). The minutes contain an internal inconsistency: the agenda header lists "Approve Pay Req. No. 12," while the motion text records approval of "pay req. no. 11." The board also discussed that the total budget is moving closer to the original estimate and that contingency funds may cover several change orders.
