Selectboard splits on CDBG-DR funding-gap letter, unanimously seeks project extension
Summary
The board voted 2–1 to send a letter confirming Weston can cover a funding gap on the CDBG-DR Mitigation Project (Benson opposed) and then voted unanimously to request an extension from the State of Vermont.
The Selectboard addressed two actions related to the town’s CDBG-DR Mitigation Project. Jim Linville moved to sign and forward a letter to the State of Vermont confirming the town has the financial capacity to cover the funding gap associated with the mitigation project; the motion passed 2–1, with Linville and Katie Fitzpatrick voting in favor and Denis Benson opposed.
Shortly after, the board voted unanimously to sign and forward a separate letter requesting an extension for the mitigation project. The transcript records the motions and the 2–1 split on the capacity confirmation but provides no additional detail about the size of the funding gap, specific funding sources, or the state’s response.
