Summary

The Select Board approved a common-use request for Grace Cottage Fair Day (July 27–Aug 2, event Aug 1) with a $100 fee, a WRED end-of-year celebration for May 28, and Brattleboro Development Credit Corp.'s use of town hall on June 11 for a municipal leaders network meeting.

The board approved several common-use requests. Members approved Grace Cottage Fair Day use of the common July 27–August 2 (event on Aug. 1) and amended the motion to include the standard $100 fee. Committee members debated whether the common has outgrown the event and whether an alternate site (school ball fields) would be appropriate; supporters cited the event's fundraising support for the hospital.

The board also approved a WRED end-of-year celebration for May 28 (1–6 p.m.) and authorized Brattleboro Development Credit Corporation (BDCC) to use town hall on June 11 for a municipal leaders network meeting; fee-waiver requests were left to the policy committee for future guidance.
