Quite a few items were discussed at the Town Council meeting on April 21, 2021. This was to be expected, as they had released an 18-point agenda earlier in the week. Besides the discussion and votes pertaining to the proposed acquisition of a portion of the Overlook property, a few other tweaks were made to the Warrant for the Financial Town Meeting.
The council voted to include the request for $1.3 million for a replacement fire truck. Town Manager Maryanne Crawford asked to have one item, $1.5 million for housing for town employees, removed since she
did not as yet have a finalized plan of action for this item. The council removed the item, then voted to include the next item, $2 million for the Housing Board. See the full warrant on page 15.
