The wireless zoning recommendation would replace the existing bylaw while retaining public review of proposed facilities and clarifying an exemption for some utility-pole installations. It is a recommendation to Town Meeting, not final approval of a new bylaw. On composting, the Board rejected the modified petition but discussed exploring lower rates from private suppliers and supporting public awareness; that alternative language still required review before Town Meeting.
