East Hampton Finance Officials Meeting Monday on High School Project
The Board of Finance has scheduled a special meeting on the $52 million proposal.
East Hampton's Board of Finance will hold a special meeting Monday, April 22, to vote on the revised high school renovation proposal.
The board is scheduled to meet at 7:30 p.m., in the East Hampton Middle School Library.
The meeting was called after the high school building committee decided to revise the $52 million proposal and eliminate from it a proposal to move the Board of Education offices into the renovated building and a plan to install lights at the high school's athletic fields.
The finance board several weeks ago rejected the plan, in part because of concerns about the lights and moving the school board offices. The finance board, however, said it would reconsider the project if those two proposals were removed.
The building committee last week approved a revised plan, which the Board of Education approved earlier this week. However, the finance board's vote is needed before the proposal can go to voters.
