Commission refines photo captions and proposes historic-preservation language
Summary
Members agreed to add descriptive captions minimizing personal names, identified images to use for the town report and discussed establishing a historic preservation group distinct from a proposed barn commission.
Commissioners reviewed many images for the plan and agreed to add brief captions that describe places rather than focus on individual names. Members suggested captions such as "Historic barn and Tinmouth channel view" and agreed to keep most personal names out of the main bullets while recording who appears in images in an appendix or photo credits section.
Separately, the commission discussed a proposed historic-preservation group to recommend town-sponsored programs or policies for historic structures. Chair (S2) clarified that the historic-preservation proposal is broader than a 'barn commission' and should cover structures beyond barns, and members asked staff to draft concise language reflecting that distinction.
