Select Board shifts to biweekly updates, seeks Northpointe cost estimates for town‑hall options

The Select Board agreed to move recurring project update meetings to Thursdays and hold them biweekly to maintain momentum on the town‑hall planning process. S4 proposed the schedule change, noting the Friday office closure and the need for timely updates from Northpointe; S2 stressed that "we have to have this done by December."

Northpointe has collected existing building drawings and structural assessments and is preparing conceptual layouts and cost estimates so the board can present realistic bond options to voters. Board members emphasized they want a rough order of magnitude — "Is this a $7,000,000 project? Is this a $17,000,000 project?" — so the town can set an appropriate bond amount for the March town meeting and avoid multiple years of incomplete design work. The board also discussed a possible field visit to the Tamposil land to inform siting and topography considerations.
