The short-term borrowing acts as a bridge loan to ensure construction contracts can proceed on schedule without pausing between state 911 development grant disbursements. One board member opposed, arguing the town should not accept borrowing risk on behalf of the regional district, while other members noted neighboring member towns Grafton and Westborough had already approved the measure. Outcome: Approved 4-1, with member Tim Fling opposed.
