NEWBURYPORT â A proposed order, set to be introduced to the City Council on Monday night, authorizes the purchase of 57 Low St. for general municipal purposes, while also providing Newburyport Youth Services with $1.7 million to rehabilitate the ground floor of the former Brown School.Â
The order, cosponsored by Council President Jared Eigerman and Ward 1 Councilor Sharif Zeid, would appropriate $1 million for upgrades to Newburyport Youth Services at the former Brown School at 42 Milk St.
This $1 million would be added to $693,500 that has been sitting in the Special Revenue Fund for the Sale of Municipal Buildings since the city sold the Kelley School in 2016.
