At a glance: Select Board approves unanticipated revenue and several routine items
Summary
At its Dec. 2 meeting the Henniker Select Board accepted $31,877.42 from a regional solid-waste land sale, accepted a bench donation from the Lions Club, adopted the 2026 meeting schedule, authorized an energy-performance contract resolution, approved meeting minutes, and advanced an ordinance amendment to first reading.
During a broadly procedural segment of its Dec. 2 meeting the Henniker Select Board approved several motions that require minimal debate but have direct administrative or fiscal effects.
Key votes and outcomes:
- Acceptance of unanticipated revenue: The board voted to accept $31,877.42 from the Concord Regional Solid Waste/Co-op land sale for deposit to the town general fund. The motion carried unanimously.
- Noncash donation: The board accepted a bench donated by the Lions Club (retail value $359) and directed the Parks and Properties Department to assemble and place the bench in Community Park with a plaque recognizing a former selectman; motion carried unanimously.
- Meeting schedule: Members adopted the Select Board's 2026 meeting schedule (including town meeting timing) and approved the schedule.
- Energy efficiency: The board authorized the town administrator to engage town counsel and draft a board resolution to pursue an energy-performance contract (piggybacking with SAU 24) under RSA 53-A:3; motion carried.
- Minutes and adjournment: The board accepted draft minutes from Nov. 18 and later adjourned the meeting by unanimous vote.
What's next: Several of these votes will be implemented administratively (funds deposited to the general fund, Parks and Properties to place the bench, staff to draft resolution and ordinance amendments) and, where relevant, the items will reappear in future agenda packets for final readings or appropriation decisions.
