Falmouth police station design paused after development phase as committee discussed smaller option. The Police Station Advisory Committee decided at its Aug. 20 meeting to finish design development by Aug. 31 and send the plans for an updated cost estimate. The Select Board had requested a reduced-size Option B, and a GPI traffic study put average weekday trips at 615, below the 1,000 threshold for a MEPA filing.
The committee then decided to pause construction documents while next steps are determined.
