North Brookfield Finance Committee advances $7,985 in reserve transfers and ADA grant recommendation. Chair Joseph Trentacosta's committee unanimously authorized $4,962.06 from reserves for Town Counsel legal costs and $3,023.63 for increased street lighting expenses. It voted 4-0 to recommend a $25,000 ADA grant for an accessible Police Department entry door, estimated to cost $15,000 to $20,000.
The committee declined to pursue a $150,000 Senior Center ramp grant, citing concerns it was overkill and would burden operating cashflow.
