Town Meeting approved $100,000 for comprehensive water system repairs and a town-wide hydrant flushing program under Article 24. The funds will be raised through water rates rather than general taxation. The Board of Selectmen described the initiative as a "unique" effort to address system performance issues that have persisted for two decades.

The program, designed by engineers from Camp Dresser & McKee, is intended to clear sediment and improve water quality and pressure throughout the town. The Chair of the Board of Selectmen noted that this appropriation supplements existing maintenance funds to ensure the project is completed within the current fiscal year.

Motion: To appropriate $100,000 for water system improvements.

Vote: Passed Unanimously
