Town manager report: trailhead change order of $3,922, election filing deadline and municipal election date announced
Summary
Council heard the town manager report (delivered by the chair in the manager's absence) on Public Works progress and a Parsons Lane Trailhead change order that increased tree-removal costs by $3,922; the council also announced election filing deadlines and the municipal election date.
Chair (acting for absent Town Manager Gene) delivered the town manager report, citing ongoing site grading, stormwater structure delivery and hardware delivery for wastewater work. He reported work to lay out operations for both buildings and said compacted soil has been placed.
The Chair said the Parsons Lane Trailhead and parking area had incurred change orders; a cost-saving change was achieved on fabric and stone, but change order 3 increased tree removal costs by $3,922. The chair stated the town has funds set aside to cover that increase.
The chair also announced upcoming election dates and deadlines: candidate filing for mayor of Ward 3 and Ward 4 closes Friday, April 17, 2026 at 5:00 p.m.; the municipal election is Saturday, May 9, with polls open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. The council noted a budget workshop on April 20 and other calendar events.
No council action to alter projects or budgets was recorded in the transcript; the chair indicated the town's current allocations should cover the change order.
