Town staff used the Aug. 27 meeting to brief council on several administration and operations items, including social media, building access, facility upgrades and compliance audits.

Social media: Town Manager Christopher Cook said staff plan to create a town Instagram account linked to the existing Facebook page so posts can publish across both platforms. Staff named Andrea Balboni, Renee and "Juliandrea" as the administrators who would manage the account. Council members signaled they were comfortable with staff proceeding; Cook said no formal motion was required.

Key fobs and facilities: Clerk‑Treasurer Nanette Angel said a new key-fob system has been installed on multiple doors and staff would circulate the lock/unlock schedule to council. Angel also presented photos of recently renovated cottages and said the improvements have received positive feedback from renters.

MS4 audit and stormwater: Deputy Manager Balboni and Town Engineer Drew Flamingen reported the town’s MS4 (stormwater) audit went well. Balboni thanked staff for their work and said the town received several suggestions; final report will arrive later.

Boat dock and maintenance: Streets crews have received new boat-dock components and have been working on a range of routine maintenance tasks including ditch cleaning, pothole patching and decorative lighting. Staff said the components were unloaded and are awaiting installation.

Why it matters: the items affect town operations, public outreach and ongoing compliance obligations; council endorsed staff proceeding with the social-media expansion and accepted the operational updates.

Next steps: staff will set up the Instagram account under the same admin controls as Facebook, circulate key-fob schedules, and provide the final MS4 audit report when it is available.
