First official update from the owner's project manager: the northern long-eared bat (an endangered species flagged by US Fish and Wildlife during stormwater permit review) pushed the start of tree clearing to December 1, about six weeks after the MOU sign-off; this will affect any town site clearing more than one acre. Submittals and shop drawings continue. The town applied this week for a federal rural health transformation grant focused on the housing components, potentially a six-figure sum. Next update the first meeting of December. Craig Piper of SMRT was also on the call.
