Summary
Summary of formal votes and board actions taken April 22, 2025, including approval of conservation contribution, ambulance write-offs, dissolution of a household hazardous waste intermunicipal agreement, acceptance of electronic payments, and consent-agenda approvals.
The Alton Select Board recorded the following formal actions at its April 22 meeting.
- Conservation contribution: The board approved permitting the Conservation Commission to contribute $10,000 to the Lakes Region Conservation Trust toward acquisition costs for the Gould Lot, Map 6, Lot 6 at Stockbridge Corner. The motion passed; final disbursement is contingent on a Conservation Commission public hearing.
- Ambulance-billing write-offs: The board approved writing off two aged ambulance accounts totaling $31,631.23 after collection attempts by Comstar and First Financial Resources were exhausted.
- Household hazardous waste intermunicipal agreement: The board voted to dissolve the intermunicipal agreement with Wolfeboro for household hazardous waste collection and join Lakes Region Planning Commission programs; the motion passed. The agreement specifies a 70/30 cost split historically; staff will manage distribution of any remaining revolving-fund balance per the agreement terms.
- Acceptance of electronic payments: The board voted to accept electronic payments for taxes under RSA 80:52-c to update the DRA portal as a housekeeping matter; the motion passed unanimously.
- Minutes and consent agenda: The board approved meeting minutes (April 1, 2025) and the consent agenda for April 22, 2025, including approval of nonpublic minutes releases per the motions recorded in the minutes.
Motions were moved and seconded where recorded; roll-call detail in the meeting minutes records board members voting “Aye” on these items. Some administrative decisions (for example, Old Home Week fireworks funding) were handled by consensus and are recorded in meeting notes rather than as a roll-call vote.
