Town staff told the board they are following up with counsel before finalizing a lease agreement (agenda item TB 6) with the Greenburgh Nature Center and asked the board to hold the item until the next meeting if needed. Committee member (Speaker 2) said he hoped the lease could be finalized soon but that he would recommend holding the item to Nov. 25 if compliance questions remain.

"They've done beautiful things," Committee member (Speaker 4) said, and Chair (Speaker 1) described features such as a heated enclosure for a resident turtle. No final vote on the lease was recorded; staff said they will continue negotiating with the center's counsel and return the item when it is ready for action.
