Summary

Commissioners agreed to apply for a bylaw grant with an application due Sept. 1 and a closing date noted as 11/02; members said local bylaw work should be completed to strengthen the town’s chance of funding.

Chair opened discussion of a grant to support bylaw revisions, saying the application timeline will require quick work: "The due date is September 1 with a closing date of 11/02," the Chair said. Commissioners discussed a roughly 50% chance of receiving the award and asked staff to coordinate with Nick to support the application if he’s available.

Members agreed to pursue the grant to finance bylaw drafting and to organize a small team to prepare the materials. The commission asked staff to follow up with Nick about grant-writing assistance and to return with a draft application timeline at the next meeting.
