ReplyDeleteSTM 11/19 - Stone Bridge- Balance $34,000
STM 10/20 - Stone Bridge- Balance $49,337.21
The Selectman requested $85,000 and spent $1,662.79 over the past 4+ years.
What about the plans that were drawn up, the cost for all that prior to the presentation must not be included in this funding.
I remember a walking bridge, narrow driving bridge and a two lane plan...........were they free?
I think we have a allocation problem and a accounting issue.
Just to be clear. Funding from another source had to be available prior to the 11/19 STM because we commissioned an RFP on 10/15/2018 and received one prior to the request for funding. How was this funded?
