Selectboard debates timing of releasing building inspection report to public and school board
Summary
Board members said they will send the state inspection report to the school board—some argued it should be sent first or concurrently with public release to prompt a response—then arrange a tour and follow-up.
The selectboard debated whether to release a state building inspection report publicly immediately or first provide it to the school board. Some members argued the school board should receive the report first or at least simultaneously so it might spur faster action.
A resident asked whether the report had been given to the school board; the Chair said staff were hoping to meet with the school board and that the town's inspector and state electrical and mechanical inspectors had attended the inspection. One speaker argued, "I think it should be sent to the school board, or at least it sent to them at the same time," saying such a step could increase urgency from the district.
Board members agreed to send the report to the proper parties and to schedule a follow-up tour; the town's inspector and state inspectors will provide the full inspection documentation to the board and school as discussed.
