Summary

The committee opened its meeting, approved minutes of the prior two meetings by voice vote, and agreed to prioritize discussion of a draft recommendation to plan for 24/7 firefighter coverage while leaving consolidation discussion for later.

The Chair called the meeting to order and the committee approved the minutes of the last two meetings by voice vote. When asked "All in favor?" a member replied simply, "Aye."

After approving minutes, the committee took up a draft staffing recommendation distributed in print and agreed to defer consolidation material to the end of the agenda so members could focus first on proposed 24/7 coverage and related staffing questions. Committee members asked staff to circulate a clean copy and consider edits before the next meeting so the town can build budget estimates.
