Easton board forms infrastructure task force, punts cell-tower lease talks to 2028
Summary
The Board created a seven-member Infrastructure Task Force with a 12-month mandate to evaluate town facilities and infrastructure and directed negotiations on the town’s cell tower lease to begin in August 2028; no formal lease action was taken.
On May 7 the Easton Board of Selectmen approved creation of a seven-member Infrastructure Task Force with a 12-month mandate to evaluate town facilities, equipment and infrastructure needs.
The motion, made by Kristi Sogofsky and seconded by Nick D'Addario, passed unanimously. The Board described the task force as a vehicle for a town-wide efficiency review of facilities and staffing considerations and tasked it with delivering recommendations within a 12-month timeframe.
Separately, the Board discussed the town’s existing cell tower lease (expiring in 2029) and directed that negotiations begin in August 2028 with the intent of pursuing renewal under favorable terms; no negotiation directive, timeline or counterparty details were adopted beyond the August 2028 start instruction.
Minutes do not record membership names for the task force, nor do they provide specifics about the scope of authority or reporting obligations beyond the 12-month mandate.
