The Commission cannot change the current five-year farm lease, but it is pursuing supplemental recommendations on soil testing, cover crops, and communication with the farmer. Jim Szipszky agreed to help develop the testing recommendations in coordination with the Agriculture Commission, including proposed costs and responsibility for payment. The Commission also discussed solar projects on town property and reported that the Broadleaf Solar project has slowed, with a future filing and public input process expected.
