From the meeting
The chair postponed the GMB Preston Rails to Trails concept plan presentation to the next meeting. The town also noted the project still needs a project initiation form, engineer review form, and design plan before grant application work advances. GMB has been approved to create a design, so the project is still being shaped rather than procured.
This is an open planning lead with future design and grant work ahead.
