Bolton approves reallocation of $69,100 in school security funds

First Selectman Pamela Z. Sawyer said Bolton electors approved a resolution April 19, 2022, to reallocate $69,100 that had been reserved for a Board of Education door lock replacement matching grant.

The measure moves $39,000 to purchase door locks with a master key system and reallocates $30,100 to the high school garage. Ms. Sawyer described the special meeting at Bolton Town Hall as strictly a "bookkeeping" action after the matching grant the funds had been set aside for fell through.

Ms. Sawyer motioned and reread the resolution; Scott Rich seconded. Town Meeting Moderator Mark T. Altermatt called for a vote and the resolution was approved unanimously. The transcript records the outcome as unanimous but does not specify the number of yea votes.

With no further business, Ms. Sawyer moved to adjourn; Susan Pike seconded and the meeting adjourned at 6:37 p.m. The minutes were submitted by Town Clerk Elizabeth C. Waters.
