Library Progress Update

As of December 12, the new library project is approximately 40% complete. Masonry work is visible on the building’s north side. Utility connections on High Street have been finished. Currently, TLT Construction and the sub-contractors are working on spray foam insulation, drain line installation, and exterior masonry work. The roof shingles and gutters are almost complete. Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing work continues on the second floor. The Town’s plumbing and electrical inspectors have been on site reviewing the work of the sub-contractors.
Members of the Permanent Building Committee toured the site on November 22. Library Building consultants from the Mass Board of Library Commissioners toured the site on November 29. To date, the Town has received just over $2.2 million in state grants for the project.
