The Building Committee has formed at the request of the Board of Selectmen to recommend a police station site and design that will meet the needs of the community, with an eye toward modest growth, for the next generation.

To this end, the Building Committee will: 

• Review past deliberations and recommendations by the ad hoc committee, Town Hall employees and Board of Selectmen before the Building Committee was formed;
• Gather new information that may inform a new recommendation;
• Follow a process that is open and transparent to the public;
• Provide periodic updates in public forums, such as joint meetings with the Board of Selectmen, public access TV programming and/or press releases;
• Recommend a police station site and design to the Board of Selectmen, well in advance of the April 2013 Town Meeting.

The Building Committee regularly schedules meetings on alternate Thursdays at 8 a.m. and invites formal input by the public at the end of each meeting.
