The public hearing is being held to discuss the proposed $3.27 million appropriation for the design and construction of various athletic stadium improvements at Joel Barlow High School.  Redding's share of the allocation is about 55-percent based on population in the school.  Easton will pick up the other 45-percent of the tab. 

After the district meeting, the Board of Education will meet to set the dates for the referendums to be held in Easton and Redding, whose town charter calls for at least 30 days notice of a referendum. 

There is some money included in that total for soil testing, landscaping and improvements to the nearby parking lot.  Six bids came in for the project which includes a new turf field, a fence, field lighting and bleachers. 

Tuesday's meeting in the library of Joel Barlow will be held at 7pm.
