The Community Preservation Committee meeting on June 9, 2026, began with the approval of meeting minutes from March 10th, March 17th, and April 14th. The approval process involved some confusion over member attendance, resulting in one abstention on the vote for the April 14th minutes. Following the minutes, the committee reviewed a progress report for the Cornell Pond Trail Design, noting that a final invoice for $13,345.50 was forthcoming. The primary focus of the meeting was the approval of several invoices. The committee unanimously approved a payment of $2,800 to Paul Showkat and Company for the Aikin House basement project and $6,700 to Ronald Perry for four kayak racks at Dias Landing. A third invoice for $12,000 to TNT Grave Stone Solutions for work at the Joseph Davis Cemetery sparked discussion. Committee member John raised concerns about the lack of detail in the invoice, such as a per-stone cost breakdown. After discussion, the committee voted to conditionally approve the payment, pending the receipt of more detailed backup documentation from the vendor. The committee also reviewed the Aikin House closeout report. In other business, the committee reviewed and unanimously approved sending letters of appreciation to former members Margaret and Joe for their years of service. Finally, the committee discussed scheduling their next meeting. Due to several members being unavailable on the proposed date of July 14th, they agreed to reschedule the meeting to July 7th. The meeting was then adjourned.
