Summary
Board voted to add C-PACE, Outdoor Dining and a Commercial Vacant Building ordinance to the November 2025 ballot, debated wording on other items and rejected or tabled several proposals; motions and recorded votes are in the minutes.
At its Aug. 21 meeting, the Rumford Select Board voted to place multiple ordinance language items on the November 2025 ballot, including C-PACE, Outdoor Dining and a measure labeled "256 - Commercial Vacant Building." The minutes record motions and votes for each addition.
Brennick moved to add C-PACE and the motion passed 5-0. Theriault moved to add Outdoor Dining and the motion passed 5-0. DiConzo moved to add "256 - Commercial Vacant Building," which also passed 5-0. The minutes show additional procedural votes: a proposed "227 - Spring CleanUp" was defeated 0-5; a motion to change wording to eliminate a 24-hour reference passed 4-1; and a motion to table an item indefinitely passed 4-1. Later in the record the board approved an additional unspecified change by a 5-0 vote.
The minutes document the board's deliberations and recorded votes but do not include the full ordinance text or explanatory staff memos. Residents seeking details of the proposed ballot language should consult the town clerk's office and the final warrant materials that accompany the November ballot.
