Where the data comes from

Data quality notes

  • The council roster needs a check (two members may not seek re-election).
  • Captions of the 10/13 council meeting name the Mayor Pro Tem and two members whose names match no roster entry, so those names are unverified.
  • Calendar items for November were not posted on 10/23, so the next work session date is unknown. Board chairs were not found, and the 9/22 recap PDF was unreadable. Meeting transcripts are auto-generated captions, so names and some terms may be misspelled or misheard.
  • Minutes later than May 28, 2026 are not yet posted; the October 27 meeting has only a Council Connector recap. The minutes rebuild therefore covers the May 2026 meetings and does not show the June 9 budget adoption or the final tax rate.
  • Planning Board minutes were not found on the Town Council minutes page and were not used.
  • The May 28 minutes give the weekday as both Thursday and Tuesday (May 28, 2026 was a Thursday). The budget town hall is dated May 26 in its own summary minutes but May 27 with about 20 attendees in the May 28 announcements (the summary says about 25). The minutes call the clerk Allen Coleman; the existing People page is Alan Coleman.
  • The minutes carry presentation slides as images only, so audit figures, budget scenario numbers and the May 2026 development ordinance amendment titles are not in the text. The May 21 work session vote is recorded as 5-0.
