Quick context to catch up fast.
The Town Council unanimously approved measures to create a lead service line inventory and add accessibility guidelines for pedestrian facilities in public rights-of-way. The water-line project will use a 10-year loan at 1.1% interest, a forgivable grant, and about 600 verification digs among 3,000 lines whose materials remain unverified.

The accessibility ordinance applies to both town projects and private development, setting guidelines for pedestrian facilities. The water-line measure allows Eastern Utilities to seek funding to confirm which service lines lack lead, with town records indicating no post-1972 lead pipes. The council also extended the mobile food truck pilot, approved two public events, and did not vote on the Comprehensive Plan because its public hearing remains open.
