Summary

Town Administrator Kathryn Lynch reported the town received a legal decision related to Eversource for 2017, 2018 and 2019. Lynch said that although the town 'won the case,' an allocation ratio used during those years creates an outstanding liability; she estimated the amount at about $55,000 plus interest and said staff must calculate interest and determine next steps.
Lynch presented the information as part of routine TA updates; the board did not take a recorded vote on how to fund the liability during the meeting. Lynch said the town's legal review and accounting will continue to clarify the precise amount owed once interest is calculated.
