At its meeting, the Groveland Select Board took several formal actions.
Special event permit: The board approved Special Event Permit 2026‑SP‑6 for an event at the Pines Recreation Area submitted by Stephanie Guillemette. One board member recused; the tally was three yes, one abstention and one absent.
IT working group: The board voted to form an IT working group to advise the town administrator and consultants on cybersecurity and business‑continuity planning and to appoint Select Board member Baker to the group.
