Summary

A $5,000 request was made to address the Annex building's remaining repairs, including a boiler that has been unused for years; officials noted $25,000 already exists in the budget for that building.

Paul McCarty said he "put a request in for $5,000.00 for 2025. The bathroom is almost complete and that was done with a grant. The boiler has been sitting for years." He asked the board to include a line for the Annex building in the 2025 budget to cover immediate needs.

Peter Ives responded that "We have $25,000.00 in the budget for this building" and the board discussed the option of using general-fund reserves or grant applications if additional needs arise. Supervisor Fisher noted an allocation is necessary "in case we have to pay someone to get started," indicating the request was to allow prompt contracting if required.
