Ripton school dual roof proposal

At the upcoming town meet Ripton gets to vote on two linked proposals for the town's school.  Specifically, there is a combined Ripton Elementary School improvement strategy before us.

1. To replace the school's current roof with a standing seam one.
2. To mount a solar photovoltaic system on that new roof

How will we pay for this?  A combination of sources, including some funds from the town's Capital Reserve Fund, borrowing on the market, and a payment from the state's Renewable Energy
Incentive.

Why now?  The school roof is old and leaky.
