Richmond voters approve financing for $6.8M town center complex


RICHMOND — Town voters easily approved the second and final step to finance a new town hall, community center and library off State Road (Route 41). The project, costing up to $6.8 million, is on town-owned land adjoining the Richmond Consolidated School.
The “yes” vote on a debt-exclusion ballot question at Saturday’s annual town election was a landslide 260 to 22, said Town Accountant/Town Clerk Angela Garrity. The turnout was nearly 23 percent of Richmond’s 1,245 registered voters.

Richmond voters approve $6.8 million town center complex


RICHMOND — Prolonged applause and cheers erupted Wednesday night as a huge turnout of annual town meeting voters approved the largest building project since the expansion and renovation of the Richmond Consolidated School 20 years ago.

Turnout was about 25 percent of the 1,239 registered voters. The thumping victory margin surprised and gratified town leaders who had expected a tighter tally.
