Summary

The commission identified and corrected an inconsistency in the draft charter summary: the Flood Prevention, Climate Resilience and Erosion Control Board is a seven‑member body, not five. Commissioners voted to amend the summary to reflect the body text.

Commissioners discovered a clerical inconsistency in the draft charter’s summary pages May 8: the Flood Prevention, Climate Resilience and Erosion Control Board was shown with five members in the summary but the body text and commenters indicated the correct composition is seven members.

The commission moved to correct the summary to list seven members. The motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.

Why it matters: Accurate summaries matter for public understanding; the body text already specified seven members and the commission acted to align the summary with the charter language.

Outcome: The CRC approved the correction and directed staff to update the summary and republish the draft packet to the Town Clerk for distribution to the Board of Selectmen.
