Selectboard signs VTrans engineering grant application for up to $50,000 with 10% town match
Summary
The Selectboard authorized signing VTrans Engineering Grant #BC2506 for up to $50,000 with an expected Town contribution of 10% to support culvert/engineering work effective 7/1/2026–12/31/2028.
Kevin Gish moved to sign VTrans Engineering Grant #BC2506 with a grant award of up to $50,000 and an expected Town contribution of 10% of the total cost for the grant term effective July 1, 2026 through December 31, 2028. Ted Austin seconded and the motion passed 2‑0‑0 with Scott Henkels absent.
Town Administrator Nicola Shipman had earlier said she is drafting an RFP for culvert upsizing on Route 132 and is seeking technical assistance to support RFP development. The VTrans grant authorization aligns with that engineering work and will provide partial funding for engineering services; the board recorded the expected 10% town match but did not provide dollar amounts for the match in the minutes.
The motion authorizes staff to sign the grant documents and pursue the engineering work; specific engineering scopes of work and contractor selections will follow normal procurement and RFP processes.
