Board of Selectmen, October 22, 2026

The Greenwich Board of Selectmen meeting on October 22, 2026, included updates on municipal projects and school construction. The Riverside School Building Committee is refining project scope and design options, reported selecting Arcadis for a project role that is not fully identified in the transcript, and is preparing for municipal improvement approval and design-development submission next year. At Julian Curtiss School, cafeteria renovations are complete; Phase 4 is planned for summer 2027, with a construction contractor bid expected in December or January. At Old Greenwich School, construction is underway on an addition, elevator, and mechanical spaces. No contract award or project dollar amount was reported. A renewable-energy forum discussed audits, solar installations, and energy action plans, but no town purchasing decision was made.

The Board approved the October 8 regular-meeting minutes. It also discussed a community-funded hometown-hero banner pilot, with the First Selectman to contact the state DOT about possible installation on a state road, and considered extending the seasonal period when dogs may use beaches; both matters require further follow-up. The Board discussed revising its naming policy so gifts below $5,000 would not require RTM review, consistent with town code, but deferred further consideration and a possible vote to a later meeting. No new procurement award or spending approval was identified.
