The council approved a successor intermunicipal agreement with the Town of Gilford covering the Lakes Business Park, noting a termination-date change for Gilford and a clause capping shared fiscal responsibility for capital over $1 million; approval was unanimous.

The City Council voted 6-0 to approve a successor intermunicipal agreement with the Town of Gilford governing the Lakes Business Park (Hounsell Avenue area).
