At the April 28 meeting the Tamworth Select Board moved through a set of routine but consequential administrative items.

The board approved land-use change taxes that were described during the session, including a land-use change tax for Map 415, Lot 55 in the amount of $217,220 (described in discussion as related to a gravel pit). The board also approved accounts payable totaling $409,783.63, which the meeting record flagged includes a $300,000 payment for the school and $8,076.63 for tractor repair. Members took a roll-call for each motion, and multiple affirmative responses were recorded. The meeting adjourned at 5:32 p.m.
Separately, under new business the board appointed Paul King to serve as the town’s perambulation agent for the Tamworth–Madison and Tamworth–Albany boundary walks; King had organized volunteers and brought five copies of the perambulation documents for signatures. The board moved, seconded and approved his appointment by roll call.
All formal motions and outcomes recorded in the meeting transcript were routine approvals or appointments; no item on the signature file was tabled or postponed.
