Select Board terminates agricultural lease for nonpayment
The Select Board voted to terminate the Moon and Stars farm lease for nonpayment after staff reported the tenant owes $800 and has not complied with lease obligations (cutting stalks and planting cover crops); staff proposed forgiving the debt in exchange for required agricultural work but the board voted to terminate.
