Council approves first readings for police suppressors, wastewater CCTV subscription and public works tractor
Summary
On first reading the council approved procurement measures including rifle suppressors for the police department, an annual CCTV software subscription for the wastewater division, and a replacement utility tractor and rotary broom.
The Westbrook City Council granted first reading approval to three procurement orders at its Jan. 5 meeting.
Councilor Anna A. Turcotte moved first reading of Order 2026‑02, authorizing the purchase of rifle suppressors for the Police Department; Captain Steve Goldberg spoke on the item before the council approved the first reading (vote 6‑0‑1). Councilor Brian McCambridge moved first reading of Order 2026‑03 to authorize the Wastewater Division's annual CCTV software subscription and amend the FY2025‑2026 annual vendor lists; no one spoke against the motion. Councilor Gary Rairdon moved first reading of Order 2026‑04 to authorize purchase of a replacement utility tractor and rotary broom for public works. All three items passed their first reading by voice vote and will return for a second reading where final approval is required.
Each item was approved on first reading without recorded dissent among those present. The council will consider final approval at a subsequent meeting; the minutes do not specify procurement vendor details or budget line items in this summary.
