Town Hall capital request of $30,000 discussed and tabled for prioritization
Summary
The budget committee reviewed a $30,000 Town Hall capital request (siding repair, painting, entry flooring and lighting), discussed grant opportunities for flooring, and agreed to compile all departments' capital requests on one sheet before finalizing recommendations.
Budget Committee members reviewed a Town Hall capital request that included exterior siding repair and painting (proposed at $25,000), entry flooring (estimated $3,500) and lighting ($1,500). The Town Administrator said the rear of the building showed rot and mold and that the $25,000 figure was a first estimate to address the most damaged sides; he noted a $3,000 grant had been applied for to offset entry flooring costs. "I have here a request of $30,000 for FY '27 under Town Hall Capital," the Budget Committee Chair read from the materials provided to the committee.
Committee members urged staging capital work across fiscal years and requested a consolidated capital‑request spreadsheet that would present all departments' projects so members could assess total taxpayer impact and potential leveling. Because the committee wanted to view all capital requests in aggregate before final recommendations, the Town Hall capital request was tabled for follow‑up.
