The Sterling Economic Development Commission on Feb. 10, 2026 approved its Jan. 14 meeting minutes, reported appointments to fill two open seats, conditionally approved an outreach mailing and assigned follow-up on several unfinished items before adjourning at 7:22 p.m.
Minutes approval: Scott Blinkhorn moved to approve the Jan. 14, 2026 minutes; Marisa Rokstad seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
Appointments: Chair Steve Hebner reported that two open seats on the commission have been filled and that Neil Delmonico and Steven Joslyn have been appointed to fill those seats. The minutes record that discussion about new EDC members was tabled to the next meeting by motion of Marisa Rokstad; the minutes do not record a formal EDC vote to appoint those individuals during this meeting.
Brochure and business directory: S. Sleboda drafted a letter to businesses in the directory. Neil Delmonico moved to approve mailing the letter contingent on verification and updating of the mailing list; Marisa Rokstad seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
Former Town Hall: Commissioners discussed the condition and potential uses of the Old Town Hall building. Chair Hebner will draft a letter with a final-notice recommendation to the Board of Selectmen asking them to determine how they wish to proceed; the EDC stated it has no proposals or recommendations at this time. Scott Blinkhorn moved to table further discussion until the March meeting; the motion passed.
Drainage in the industrial park: Commissioners discussed detention-basin drainage; S. Sleboda will assemble cost estimates for the Department of Public Works to perform the work. The discussion was tabled to the next meeting by unanimous motion.
Other business: The commission briefly discussed back taxes owed from an entity/person noted as "Valentina"; no motion or action is recorded in the minutes on that matter. The meeting adjourned at 7:22 p.m.
The minutes record no formal EDC vote granting staff authority to negotiate contracts or make expenditures related to these items; follow-up tasks (mailing-list verification, DPW cost estimates, and the chair's letter to the selectmen) were recorded as next steps.
