Selectmen report application for $5,000 early-voting grant and note one home destroyed in July 4 storm
The Selectmen's report, read at the Board of Finance meeting on July 13, said the town applied for an early-voting grant of $5,000 and summarized damage from a July 4 weather event that destroyed one home.

Minutes state that the town is unlikely to meet thresholds for state or federal disaster funding related to the storm, though limited public assistance may be possible. The report does not identify specific individuals requesting aid or outline next steps for disaster assistance eligibility; minutes note only the grant application and the damage estimate.

The Board received the Selectmen's report as part of regular reports; no formal action or vote on disaster assistance was recorded during the Board of Finance meeting.
