A trustee said they obtained a deed from the registry showing the Ramsdell family's agreement with Great Barrington and proposed making the document publicly available on a website or display case.

A trustee (S4) presented a historical deed from the registry of deeds documenting an agreement between the Ramsdell family and the town of Great Barrington and suggested making the document available to the public. "It's the historical document that states it's the agreement between the Ramsdell family and the town of Great Barrington," Trustee (S4) said, and offered to assist in preserving or publishing it.

The trustee framed the deed as useful for countering rumors about demolition or reuse of the building and suggested options such as posting it on a website or placing it under glass for public viewing. The chair acknowledged receipt of the document and said the trustees could decide on a future meeting agenda what to do with it.
