Forum set on Westport Municipal Center
WESTPORT — After one more informational meeting on the proposed Westport Municipal Center project, the Town Council will decide whether to move forward with a bond issue to pay for the project.
The meeting is at 6 p.m. Wednesday in the Westport Town Hall.
"At this meeting, the proposed changes made to the project as a result of the last two informational meetings will be presented," Westport Supervisor Daniel Connell said.
"The time line and process for moving forward will be discussed and then questions and answers."
He said the committee working on this project requested that the full Town Council, School Board and Fire District Board of Commissioners attend and participate in the meeting.
"It is anticipated that within a short time of the Feb. 10 meeting, the town board, as the lead agency on this project, will be voting on the bond issue."
The new Municipal Center would house the town offices, school bus garage and fire department.
