DPW Director David Cohen presented the department's third supplemental appropriation request for winter maintenance, seeking $200,000 to replenish salt supplies after an unusually active season. He said the request would leave the winter-maintenance account close to zero if there were no additional snow/ice events and would refill about three-quarters of the town's salt shed.

On a motion by Colette Aufranc, seconded by Thomas Ulfelder, the Board voted 5-0 to approve the supplemental and authorized modification of Article 7, Motion 1 to $1,100,000.
