Review and Vote on Request to MSBA to Extend the Feasibility Study Agreement
Phil explained the MSBA approved increase funding levels as of January 2026. The vote for our project is
scheduled for December 2025. The school department sent a letter requesting the MSBA change the effective
date of the increase but they would not agree to do so.They would, however,consider a request to extend our
feasibility study agreement so the vote would not happen until the February meeting, making us eligible to receive
the higher reimbursement. If the MSBA agrees to extend,the schematic design submission would be due in
December. MSBA requires a vote from the town approving the project within 120 days of MSBA vote. Ms.
Rodrigues stated she has no concerns over delaying the MSBA submission and would be more concerned about
losing the out on additional funding.
Denevan O'Connell made a motion,seconded by Melissa Rodrigues,to request an extension of the Feasibility
Study Agreement from the MSBA. Motion approved 11-0 by roll call vote.
