Town‑hall renovation scope grows; board approves $4,000 increase for project management
Summary
Select Board approved reallocating roughly $90,000 toward expanded town‑hall thermal‑envelope work and added $4,000 to WRC project‑management soft costs to support the larger scope. The board also authorized related signatures.
The town‑hall renovation committee presented a scope expansion that reallocates an available pot of about $90,000 to extend weatherization and resiliency work at the town hall. The change follows an approved petition to BGS to add thermal envelope work (insulation, air sealing and attic hatches) to the scope.
The committee described using the $90,000 to bring the town‑hall work closer to a year‑round, resilient configuration and recommended increasing the Windham Regional Commission (WRC) project‑management allocation by $4,000 to cover the extra management and legal review tasks. A member moved and the board approved the $4,000 increase and authorized the town administrator to execute documents necessary to implement the expanded scope.
Committee members said the reallocation is consistent with energy audit recommendations and that the expanded scope aims to maximize resiliency and long‑term energy savings.
