Summary

The board approved a $10,000 FY27 transfer for the Fire Services director to move generator maintenance into a consolidated equipment-repair line; the change aims to simplify tracking of fire equipment expenses.

The Board of Selectmen approved a fiscal-year transfer of $10,000 requested by the Director of Fire Services, Chris Haley, to move generator maintenance into a service-contract line and create a consolidated equipment-repair line for fire apparatus.

Members briefly discussed the purpose of the transfer and the accounting change; one board member described the move as a sensible consolidation for easier control and tracking of equipment expenses. "It gives him a little bit of flexibility," a member said, and the board approved the transfer on a voice vote.

No additional conditions were recorded in the meeting minutes; staff said service contracts and existing line-item budgets will remain aligned while the director transitions equipment maintenance into the new consolidated line.
