TOWNSHEND â Looking to get a handle on deferred maintenance and needs at school buildings, the West River Education District board will be weighing options including borrowing.
Laurie Garland, chief financial officer at Windham Central Supervisory Union, said the district could seek a 10-year bond at a time when lending rates are currently favorable.
âTo dig into this,â she said at the board meeting held remotely Dec. 21, âwe would need more information from the engineers and the bond bank.â
As much as $2 million is estimated to address building needs and deferred maintenance in the next few years for schools in Jamaica, Newfane and Townshend.
