Commissioners took several routine and formal votes during the meeting.

- Equitable sharing certification: The sheriff presented the federal equitable sharing report for the drug account, reporting an ending equitable sharing fund balance of $29,287.85 and describing allowable uses such as training and investigative tools. Commissioners moved to approve the equitable sharing agreement and certification and authorized the chair's signature; the motion was approved by voice vote.
- Motion to enter nonpublic session: Commissioners moved and seconded to enter a nonpublic session under RSA 91-A:3 II (k). The chair called the roll at the start of the nonpublic vote and several commissioners answered in the affirmative.
