Procedural notes: Several agenda holds occurred earlier in the meeting; the board pulled items for further discussion where requested and returned to them later in the agenda. When members expressed concerns about scope and precedence (for example related to commercial activity on the common), the board used a denial to require applicants to seek alternate locations or return with revised proposals.
Provenance: The motions and votes are recorded in the meeting transcript during the warrant review and the items-review portions of the agenda.
No ordinances, bylaws or budget adoptions were passed during the recorded portion of the meeting.
