Davis Thayer Reuse Cmte hears & discusses multiple options (video)

The Davis Thayer Reuse Committee met on Tuesday, Aug 15, 2023 as scheduled and heard/discussed many ideas for possible reuse of the former school building. Police station, community arts center, housing, and recreation headquarters were among the key items mentioned. Splitting the land into 2 parcels was suggested. Another was to building a new municipal building in addition to the police station and sell off the current municipal building was a new idea.

Multiple parties apparently being invited to the next meeting proposed for Sep 19 at 7 PM. Police Chief, arts and recreation, and housing trust representatives among the key participants suggested to provide insights to the discussion.

Arrangements being finalized for movers to clear the facility to enable open houses for the community (and committee) to view the building, Open houses likely to be scheduled in October.
