Summary

The Town Manager reported continued attorney turnover on a dock legal case and said the marina is still for sale. During public comment, P. Drinkwater asked about moving money to a CD versus the sweep account; minutes note the sweep is earning more interest.

Town Manager Sara J. Liscomb reported that the town is "on the fourth attorney for the dock" and that she has sent a thumb drive of camera footage to the new attorney in hopes the case will proceed. The minutes further record that the marina remains on the market when R. Littlefield asked for an update.

During public comment, P. Drinkwater asked whether it would be wiser to move more funds into a certificate of deposit rather than the sweep account given the town's high general ledger balance. The minutes state that the sweep is currently yielding more interest than a CD.

The items were recorded for information; the minutes do not document additional legal strategy, a sale timeline for the marina, or any fiscal action moving funds between accounts. Further detail will require future agenda items or staff follow-up.
