Selectboard proposes Building Advisory Committee to study firehouse expansion and revitalization
Summary
Goldstone Architects and the Selectboard discussed options for expanding Winhall's firehouse; the board proposed forming a Building Advisory Committee and agreed to broadly advertise to recruit members, noting potential zoning barriers and a possible need for ambulance service.
Goldstone Architects met with the Selectboard to present options for the town's public safety facility. The board suggested forming a Building Advisory Committee to look into ways to expand and revitalize the existing firehouse building and agreed broad outreach (website, mailings to the Grand List and Voter List) would be used to recruit committee members.
Discussion flagged potentially prohibitive zoning regulations and the possibility that the town might need an ambulance or variances from the Zoning Board of Adjustment to pursue certain facility options. No formal committee appointments were made at the meeting; the board asked staff to prepare advertisements and procedural steps for committee formation.
