During the open discussion, Commissioner Leon Ward said he had heard from members of the public interested in establishing a venue (outside the Town Green) for outdoor concerts. Chair David Michelson said the idea "is a possibility" but recommended starting small and using resources already available to test community interest before pursuing a larger venue.
