The NHERI Building Committee finance subcommittee met Feb. 28 and approved two sets of minutes and two vendor invoices during a short administrative session that began at 1:01 p.m.

Andrew, a finance subcommittee member, moved to approve the Jan. 24 and Feb. 10 meeting minutes “as presented.” Mark, a finance subcommittee member, seconded the motion. The committee approved the minutes by roll-call vote with Andrew, Mark, Lucas and Cook recorded as voting “aye.”

The committee then considered two invoices. Andrew moved to approve Skanska invoice number 1323833-000-14; the speaker read the amount as “64, 80” in the transcript. Mark seconded the motion and the committee recorded aye votes; the transcript does not provide a clear numeric dollar amount for that Skanska invoice. The committee approved Arrowstreet invoice number 729940 in the amount of $96,500 after a second and roll-call aye votes were recorded.

Committee members briefly reviewed budget tracking and cost projection language. One participant asked, “Still okay with our $9.50 budget?” and another responded, “Yep,” indicating the presenters said the project remains within its tracked budget; the transcript does not clarify whether “$9.50” reflects a transcription error or shorthand and does not specify the intended budget figure.

No members of the public spoke during the meeting; the chair asked whether there was anyone in the audience and was told there was none. After the administrative items, the committee moved to adjourn.

The session lasted only a few minutes, and committee members spent the meeting on routine approvals rather than substantive policy discussion or project decisions.
