Spruces Update June 22, 2016

We are in the final stages of the Spruces closure. All residents have been relocated and all structures have been removed. All roads have been reclaimed. The last piece remaining is the removal of the Verizon utility poles. We continue to work with Senator Downing’s office to facilitate the completion of this work. National Grid will complete their work by June 30, 2016. We have received the payment for the purchase of the park for $4,102,525. There is one final future reimbursement submission for $464,929.93. This submission will be reimbursed after FEMA completes its final inspection. The final reports for relocation have been submitted to the Department of Housing and Community Development and the Attorney General’s office. Both offices expressed gratitude for the timely relocation of all residents within the defined timeframe.
