From the meeting
At the July 28, 2026 minutes reviewed on October 6, 2026, the town reported that a GIS intern had been engaged to perform change-detection analysis using pre- and post-Helene LiDAR data. The analysis is meant to produce more accurate estimates of canopy and basal area loss across the town. It was presented as support for the tree ordinance rewrite rather than a standalone procurement.
The work is underway and feeds future policy and mapping decisions.
