Waterford Board of Finance approves May minutes, flags capital projects policy review
Summary
At its June 10 meeting the Waterford Board of Finance approved minutes from May 27, recorded election results for two town offices, and agreed the town should review its capital projects reporting policy after a year-end overview; a building permit for the Oswegatchie Fire House was also announced.
WATERFORD, Conn. — The Waterford Board of Finance approved the minutes of its May 27 regular meeting and signaled it will review the town’s capital projects reporting policy after a brief year-end overview Wednesday night in the Town Hall Auditorium.
At the June 10 meeting, Board member Bill Sheehan moved “to approve the minutes of the May 27, 2026 Regular Meeting as presented.” Board member Michael Rocchetti seconded the motion, and the Board voted 5-0-0 to adopt the minutes.
The vote followed a year-end look at capital projects reporting led by Director of Finance Kimberly Allen. Allen and board members said the upcoming fourth-quarter Capital Project report will be more informative about the status of active projects, and members agreed that a formal review of the Board’s Capital Projects review policy may be necessary to ensure oversight and timely information on project progress.
The minutes also record election outcomes noted at the meeting: Abbas Danesh was recorded as elected treasurer and Rob Brule as first selectman. The Board received no public comments during the meeting’s public comment period.
In a liaison report, Board member Robert Tuneski announced that the Oswegatchie Fire House building permit was issued on June 10, 2026, and that construction will begin immediately. No funding or construction timelines were detailed in the minutes.
The meeting concluded with a routine adjournment motion by Bill Sheehan, seconded by Robert Tuneski; the Board voted 5-0-0 to adjourn at 7:36 p.m. The Board did not take formal motions tied to capital-project funding or approve changes to policy at this session; staff indicated the fourth-quarter capital report will be presented later and could inform any policy recommendations.
