Summary

The Climate Action Committee approved its April 27 minutes, confirmed the quarterly newsletter and assigned tasks for the May Day table (tent, signage, sealed rain barrel), discussed nonmetal bike racks for the beach, and set a June 1 joint meeting with the Conservation Commission.

The committee approved the minutes from its April 27 meeting after a motion by Joshua Tabor and a second from a member identified only as Lisa; the transcript records the motion as "approved" but does not specify a roll-call vote.

On outreach, members confirmed the quarterly newsletter is finished; Mike McAtamney will send the newsletter to Lee Jay, and the committee agreed the next issue should be issued at the end of the summer. For the May Day table, members identified required supplies and assigned tasks: the committee wants a tent with both the town and Climate Action Committee logos for inclement weather, new signage for the house display, and the existing rain barrel (which Mike McAtamney sealed) is ready for placement. Lisa Pratt will ask Brian about placing the rain barrel in the garden by the door, Karina Graeter will locate JPEG versions of the logos for reproduction, and Lee Jay will order supplies; Josh (Joshua Tabor) will price items and send that information to Lee Jay so ordering can occur before July 1, 2026.

Under Connect Kennebunk updates, Jen Shak reported she located nonmetal bike racks suitable for the beach; Lisa Pratt will discuss procurement and placement with Brian.

Alison Malmqvist, the Conservation Commission liaison, said Stephen Houdlette will attend the June 1 meeting and requested a joint session with the Conservation Commission to discuss the Beaches to Blueberries project; to accommodate that, the committee set its next meeting for June 1 at 5:30 p.m. The meeting adjourned at 6:15 p.m.

(Notes: where the transcript named "Lisa" as second to the motion, it does not indicate whether that was Lisa Pagano or Lisa Pratt; the record treats that detail as not specified.)
