- Approved a nonpublic session amendment for April 15 (motion carried).

- Approved the consent agenda (voice vote).

- Approved a home‑based business application for a daycare; the matter will proceed to the Planning Board for site plan review.

- Authorized the town administrator to sign title to a 2015 Ford Explorer to the highest bidder (Dwayne Ronzkowski) for $2,050.

- Accepted a slate of tax abatements recommended by the town’s assessing consultant; one indigence application was discussed separately as a potential hardship referral to support services.

- Authorized $1,200 from a capital reserve fund to pay an invoice from GDS (one member abstained).
