Speakers report senior center with leaks in 35 locations and insulation failure
Speaker 4 reported "We got leaking in 35 locations in the building," and attributed the problem to through-wall flashing installations, multiple roof elevations, and insulation that no longer meets required thickness. Speaker 4 said the flashing was "literally pushing water back into the roof assembly," causing insulation failure.

Speaker 12 described long delays for the senior center to receive a new roof, saying the facility had "a child's swimming pool in the dining room collecting water," and urged moving the project forward so "the kids aren't wearing raincoats." Speaker 6 called for a public apology and criticized town leadership's handling of department communications.

The transcript documents the building problems and public pressure but does not include a motion, funding numbers, timeline for repairs, or specific contractor or procurement details. A follow-up should request the town's repair timeline, funding source, and any procurement records if available.
