Several items were continued or postponed to the Jan. 27 meeting to give staff time to gather information and for the board to review packets prior to decisions. Where the meeting record does not list who moved or seconded each motion or an explicit numerical roll-call tally, the board recorded motions as moved/seconded and approved by roll call; the transcript records outcomes as ‘approved’ or ‘motion carries’ in the meeting minutes.

The board also scheduled to coordinate joint discussion(s) with the planning board, conservation and water staff on the Rocky Woods OSRD/40B matter (planning board discussion set for Jan. 9).
