Planning committee notes fireworks budget, 5K run and forwards tentative June 26, 2027 date to board

The Planning Committee met July 15, 2026, and accepted its agenda without extended discussion. Tom M. moved to accept the agenda; the motion was seconded by Brett H.

Committee members recorded that the event lineup will include bands and a fireworks display. Minutes state the committee paid an additional $2,000 for a “250 year” fireworks display and noted that the event will include a 5K run for the first time. The minutes do not identify who made the payment or record a vote tied to that spending.

A tentative plan date of June 26, 2027 was entered; the committee discussed whether to move the start time to coincide with what the minutes record as “Ham Borparade.” The committee agreed to forward the date to the Board agenda for formal approval; the minutes do not record a vote tally for that referral.

The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn by Brett N., seconded by Tom M., which the minutes record as approved. The minutes list attendance as Brett N., Brett H. and Tom M. and provide no additional departmental or budget detail.
