Council hears committee reports on central business, sustainability and aging services
Summary
Committee representatives updated council: the Central Business District committee previewed opportunity- and tourism-zone topics; the Sustainable Committee outlined tree‑canopy goals and a volunteer tree survey; the Agency on Aging approved next year's budget and salary adjustments.
Council members gave brief committee updates. The Central Business District committee reported it discussed opportunity zones and tourism and encouraged council and the public to view the committee's meeting for detailed updates. The Emergency Services committee also shared EMS response-time data presented by staff.
The Sustainable Committee announced two main goals: increasing the town's tree canopy and conducting a volunteer survey of town trees; it also plans habitat management at Doe Run Park and Diamond Park to remove invasive species and encourage natives. The Agency on Aging reported it had approved next year's budget, a new handbook and salary changes to align with current economic conditions, and staff reported spending appears improved compared with last year.
