Summary

The Town Administrator reported a migration from TRIO SQL to TRIO Web with staff training support, a citizen survey open through Nov. 4, exploration of a separate First Responder unit with NEMHS, and detailed real‑estate tax account totals and foreclosure deadlines.

The Town Administrator reported that the town changed over from TRIO SQL to TRIO Web earlier in October; staff participated in multiple trainings and used a 'play' environment, and TRIO sent two representatives to assist at go‑live.

She said she will meet with the three towns and Northern New England Medical Services (NEMHS) to follow up on the First Responder program; although Hope has several EMTs, the Town Administrator reported the Fire Chief seemed less enthusiastic and she is exploring creating a separate First Responder unit. The Administrator also said citizen surveys are on SurveyMonkey and available through Nov. 4, noted that a public testing session for voting machines drew no attendees, and provided real‑estate account totals: 1,049 accounts for FY2026 totaling $2,392,063.66 (first half due Oct. 1, 2025); 30 FY2025 accounts totaling $59,039.01 (subject to foreclosure Feb. 12, 2027 if unpaid); and 11 FY2024 accounts totaling $27,093.80 (subject to foreclosure Feb. 20, 2026 if unpaid).
