Finance Director Dawn <br /> Thayer stated that there are monies available from the $1.5 Million bond done previously to fund various CIP <br /> projects. She further stated that Town Counsel has ruled that the expenditure is fine without the need for <br /> Town Meeting action. The Town Manager agreed that the shortfall should be funded by the unused portion <br /> of the bond. Mr. Gottlieb asked if the cost of steel is what caused the cost to rise so much. Ms. Laurent stated <br /> that she believes it was due to the labor costs going up. <br /> 2 <br />
