The Board of Assessors met July 29, 2025, and carried motions to approve amended meeting minutes for July 1 and July 25 and signed Warrants 1 through 6 for disbursement.
During continuing business the board directed the clerk to send a finalized logging letter of concern to the Land Use Planning Commission (LUPC).

The clerk presented vacation and training day requests and a schedule of office closures for 2025 and 2026, including August 26–27, 2025 training days (office closed on Aug. 27, deputy coverage Aug. 26), Thanksgiving and Christmas week closures in both years, and Patriot’s Week closures and deputy coverage in April 2026.

A resident raised a concern about Sunday hours at the transfer station, suggesting reallocation of hours from Sunday to Wednesday; the clerk said she would present the suggestion to the board, and the board expressed consensus that current hours remain suitable.
