Capital Planning Committee approves amended minutes on transfer station grants.
Capital Planning Committee · Meeting of February 25, 2026
Middlefield Capital Planning Committee approves amended meeting minutes, adding transfer station grant opportunity. The committee heard liaison reports on departmental capital needs, including fire equipment with two state-mandated 800 radio upgrades costing $10,500 each for vehicles and $6,500 each for handheld units across police and fire--fourteen radios totaling $123,000 required within 12 months. The brush truck is flagged in fair to poor condition with high risk of failure within three years.
Chair Jay Swift committed to developing a capital expenditure list for Town Hall with assistance from Ann Marie Visconti, and the committee voted to remove bridges, culverts, and roads from its planning scope.
