For the Planning Board, the board elected Anna Marie Palicia (at-large) and Stephen Leatherwood (farmer seat). Commissioners nominated and voted Jimmy Flynn as chair and Evelyn Cooper as vice chair for the Planning Board.
The clerk read the names and outcomes aloud for the record as ballots were tallied. Commissioners thanked applicants and encouraged civic participation.
