District says sewer line at Yale School needs urgent replacement; quote ~ $31,000

The superintendent informed the committee that the sewer line connecting the Yale School to the pump station is original to 1951 and requires replacement after an inspection. "We do have a quote. It's about $31,000," she said, and noted the work needed to get the building back online before students and staff return. She said she asked town leadership earlier in the week to consider the expense for reserve or emergency funding and that she had included relevant town staff on the communication.

Board members asked clarifying questions about logistics and budget treatment; the superintendent said she had shared the quote with the town official who indicated willingness to consider emergency reserve support. Staff said the work will proceed once funding is confirmed and that they would update the committee on scheduling and costs.
