THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The town reports that the MERP construction kickoff meeting will be held July 14 at the Town Office, and they expect to receive $76,800 in MERP grant funds after July 20. This indicates an energy-related capital project is moving from planning into construction under state grant funding. Energy, construction, and engineering firms should track this as an entry point for follow-on work, future phases, and specialized services around MERP-funded improvements.
Harry from Two Rivers and a Construction Manager will attend the MERP construction kickoff, suggesting a consultant/partner role for Two Rivers Ottauquechee Regional Commission.
