Bristol reviews water-line projects; East line qualifies for potential 50% state forgiveness
Summary
Town Administrator Gregory Faust reported Bristol West water-line construction progressing and Bristol East ranked second on the state's lead-service-line list, making it eligible for potential 50% state funding forgiveness; Faust discussed combining East and West projects pending state approval because the town is currently under-bonded.
Town Administrator Gregory Faust updated the Selectboard that Bristol West water-line construction has progressed from Elm Street to Taylor Street and that the Bristol East water-line project has placed second on the state's lead service line list. Faust said being second on the list makes the East project a candidate for 50% state funding forgiveness under relevant state programs.
Faust discussed the town’s bond status, noting the municipality is currently under-bonded and that combining the West and East water-line projects could yield more favorable contractor quotes, but any combined project would require state approval. The board did not make a binding decision at the meeting; Faust presented the status and potential funding implications for future board consideration.
