From the minutes
“Selectman Foresto moved that the Board to approve the interconnect service license agreement and authorize the Chair to execute the interconnect service license agreement with Eversource for the solar panel system at the new DPW facility. Selectman White seconded. Discussion: Selectman Crowley asked if Town Counsel has reviewed the agreement. Mr. Boynton reiterated it was sent to Town Counsel last evening and we have not received feedback as of yet but he does not anticipate any as this is Eversource’s boiler plate contract. Selectman Foresto asked what we would do differently if Town Counsel had the opportunity to review this. Mr. Boynton stated we would address any comments from Town Counsel but he again does not anticipate any as this is a boiler plate contract. He further noted that the content of the contract includes protection to the Town. Selectman Crowley requested an explanation for what this is. Mr. Boynton explained the interconnect agreement allows the electrical contractor to file for the smart block grant program. He explained the efforts he has made to date with Eversource to move this agreement forward in order to allow the Town the best possible grant funding opportunities. VOTE: 3-0-0.” (Motion: Foresto, second: White)
