The Representative Town Meeting (RTM) of Greenwich Community Television held on June 15, 2026, included extensive discussions on several procurement and capital improvement projects. Key procurement-related items included updates on the Old Greenwich School renovation project, with construction underway and a projected completion by January 2029. The RTM approved a $6 million appropriation and corresponding bond issuance for the Central Middle School project, addressing water infrastructure and fire suppression system deficiencies. A significant portion of the meeting was devoted to the municipal improvement referral for the Dorothy Hamill Rink, where after detailed debate and committee reports, the RTM approved the project to proceed. Additionally, the RTM considered the acceptance of a $100,000 gift for a George H.W. Bush statue, which was ultimately rejected due to concerns over the proposed location and process. The meeting concluded with a contentious vote approving the submission of a traffic safety plan involving automated speed enforcement cameras in school zones, despite public opposition and privacy concerns. Motions to postpone or indefinitely delay several items were discussed but mostly failed, and multiple committee reports highlighted the complexity and community impact of these projects.
