Selectboard approves Town Plan; open-house scheduled for April 18
Summary
The Brookline Selectboard unanimously approved the Town Plan on March 18, 2026, and proposed an April 18 open house of town buildings while forming a buildings committee to develop options and cost estimates for community vote.
The Town of Brookline Selectboard unanimously approved the Town Plan on March 18, 2026. Chair Mike DeSocio moved to approve the plan and Emily Beer seconded; the motion passed without opposition.
DeSocio presented a draft Charter that would form a town buildings committee to identify options, analyze implications, and estimate costs before bringing recommendations back to the Selectboard and ultimately to a Town vote. The board also proposed an open house of the town buildings on April 18, 2026, to solicit public input on uses and conditions before the committee proceeds.
The action follows public comments urging careful consideration of historic properties and collaborative decision-making. The Selectboard signaled it will wait for committee input on whether to list the Schoolhouse for rent or pursue other options.
