New Lebanon School Funding Vote Delayed By Greenwich RTM

GREENWICH, CT — A vote to release funding for the New Lebanon School building project was delayed by the Greenwich RTM on Monday night until late November, reports the Greenwich Time.

The vote is now scheduled to take place during a special meeting of the Representative Town Meeting on Nov. 20. At that time, the RTM will vote on whether to ask the Board of Estimate and Taxation to release more than $34 million for the reconstruction project.

RTM members who pushed for the postponement said they wanted to see if the state first approved a new budget, because the school building project could be in line for state reimbursement.

Last week, the executive boards of the town's PTA's overwhelmingly came out in favor of releasing the funds to move the project forward.
