Stonington board approves up to $2,200 in material costs for Beer Vault Saloon sidewalk
Summary
The board voted to pay up to $2,200 for concrete material to pour a 6-inch sidewalk along the side of Beer Vault Saloon LLC leading to the alley; other sidewalk projects remain tied to Motor Fuel Tax deadlines.
President Bruce Dowdy told trustees that he and Superintendent Jake Heberling were asked to fund concrete to pour a 6-inch sidewalk along the side of Beer Vault Saloon LLC to the alleyway and reported the village’s portion for materials would be $2,200. A motion by Trustee Tara Ramsey, seconded by Trustee Jeff Graham, approved paying for material only up to $2,200; the motion passed 6-0.
Dowdy noted separate sidewalk work is funded through the Motor Fuel Tax and must be completed before Nov. 1, 2024. The board did not discuss construction scheduling or who will perform the concrete work; the vote covered village payment for materials only.
Why it matters: the vote commits up to $2,200 in village funds for a private-business sidewalk material, while other sidewalk repairs are constrained by state funding deadlines.
