GRS School Board candidate: Ben Mayerson

My name is Ben Mayerson, and I seek a second term to serve as your Gorham representative on the Gorham Randolph Shelburne Cooperative School Board. I am the father of two. One is a graduate of the Gorham Middle High School, and another will be graduating in the future. My community ties and residency go back to well before the GRS Cooperative was formed. I’ve served the GRS for many years, in many roles. I chaired the building committee in the mid-2000s, resulting in much needed renovations of Gorham Middle High School and Ed Fenn School. We were close to losing our accreditation due to poor facility conditions. The committee’s efforts led to modernizing systems at both schools. Now GMHS is safer, better laid out, and has state-of-the-art science labs. A dedicated group of citizens worked together, balancing the wants and needs, while listening to you. The commitment continues yearly with investments in repairs and improvements.

GRS school board outlines budget, postpones vote to Feb 16 meeting

GORHAM — Hoping to reduce its proposed 2021-22 budget further, the Gorham Randolph Shelburne Cooperative School Board on Thursday postponed a vote to finalize the budget to its Feb. 16 meeting. Board members noted the Feb. 16 vote will still be in plenty of time for the annual district meeting scheduled for March 23.  Only a handful of mostly local officials attended the board’s budget hearing at the Gorham Middle High School gym or virtually. GRS Cooperative Business Administrator Roselle Higgins reported that the total budget including capital items and increased benefit costs is $9.5 million, an increase of $620,867 or 6.9 percent. For the individual towns in the district the anticipated increase on the tax rate is $3.20 per thousand dollars of assessed valuation for Gorham, $1.52 for Randolph, and $1.73 for Shelburne.

GFD receives $30,000 grant to buy needed equipment

GORHAM — The Gorham Fire Department will receive a $29,866 grant to buy lifesaving extrication equipment, often called the “Jaws of Life,” from the nonprofit Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation. Fire Chief Phil Cloutier, who wrote the application, learned it is one of only 96 grants awarded in this latest nationwide funding round. The equipment is designed to safely and efficiently remove drivers and passengers trapped in motor vehicles at serious accident sites, fulfilling a critical need within the department. When town manager Denise Vallee announced the award at the Jan. 11 selectmen’s meeting, chairman Mike Waddell, and selectmen Judy LeBlanc and Adam White thanked the chief for his ongoing fundraising successes. In 2020, GPD was awarded both a $134,600 FEMA grant to buy multiple self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), also known as air packs, and a $10,000 grant for firefighters’ turnout gear from a community foundation supported by TC Energy,
