The HVAC system upgrade at the Council on Aging is ready to move forward following the approval of remaining funds at a recent town meeting. The director mentioned waiting on a final quote due to the time elapsed since initial estimates were received. This progress is crucial as it ensures the facility can maintain a comfortable environment for its patrons.

In addition, the Council has reapplied for a Mass DOT transit grant. This measure seeks to address potential future needs and ensure continued transportation services for the community. The application process required a financial commitment from the town, which was successfully secured, highlighting local support for the Council’s initiatives.

The meeting also covered a range of services and activities offered by the Council, such as Medicare counseling, a veterans’ social, and various support groups. Notably, a Thanksgiving dinner event at the Dartmouth VFW was announced, emphasizing community support and inclusivity.
