Campton board ratifies policy updates, approves consent agenda and pursues lower-cost A/V bid
Summary
The board ratified multiple policy updates (Deposit & Investment, Social Media, Fixed Asset, Personnel, Fund Balance), approved the consent agenda including non-public minutes, and asked staff to seek lower-cost bids for Community Room audio/visual work after an initial CCS quote was high.
At its July 14 meeting the Campton Board of Selectmen ratified a set of policy changes and cleared routine business items while directing staff to pursue cost reductions for planned facility upgrades.
Selectman Sherrill Howard moved to ratify and confirm the Deposit & Investment Policy and Social Media Policy, approve revisions to the Fixed Asset and Personnel policies, and approve the Fund Balance Policy; the motion was seconded by Selectman Mort Donahue and passed unanimously. Selectman Sharon Davis added the non-public minutes from July 7, 2025 to the consent agenda; the consent agenda was then approved unanimously.
Town Administrator Kate O'Connor reported that CCS submitted a higher-than-expected quote to update the Community Room audio/visual systems. Interim TA Paul Sanderson suggested an alternate Somersworth firm; O'Connor said she will contact that company to seek a lower-cost option. The board also heard brief departmental reports and committee updates (Roads Committee, Conservation Commission, Planning Board), and discussed a potential town vehicle for the Building Inspector/DPW Director with no decision taken.
No votes were recorded on the Community Room procurement at the meeting; staff will continue outreach to find a more affordable solution.
