From the meeting
At its October 13, 2026 meeting, the Town Council discussed and advanced a resolution to create an Open Space Protection & Ordinance Development Subcommittee. The draft charge called for ordinance changes, policy changes to increase funding into the Land Acquisition Fund, and identification of parcels for conservation easements, right-of-first-refusal agreements, and purchasing development rights. The council said more discussion was needed and that the resolution would come back for future consideration.
No vendor was selected. This was a planning item tied to future land conservation funding and policy.
