From the meeting
At the October 14, 2026 work session, Tim Karan explained that any offer to purchase town property would require an upset bid process and appraisal, and the town had no obligation to act. Staff said next steps for the downtown core could include a traffic engineer and an architectural engineering firm such as Haven Design Build. Mayor Dover said the Board should wait for the master plan presentation before any decision on the property.
