The Board completed routine administrative business, signing the MS-1 form used to set the town tax rate, approving the Sept. 22 meeting minutes, and scheduling the next joint meeting.
The Select Board discussed the MS-1 (the municipal form used to establish the tax rate) and agreed there were no changes to make; a motion to sign the MS-1 was made and carried. The board also moved and seconded to approve the Sept. 22 minutes and voted to approve them.
Scheduling: The budget committee moved to meet next on Oct. 28 at 6:00 p.m.; the motion passed by voice vote. The board then closed the budget portion of the joint meeting and proceeded to the selectmen's agenda and nonpublic session.
What this means: Signing the MS-1 is an administrative step required to set the tax rate; approving minutes and confirming the meeting schedule are routine procedural actions that the board completed before moving on to the town-manager report.
