Key topics included a local law amendment to redefine building height in the town code and the repeal and replacement of Chapter 111 regarding the town's procurement policy, which now incorporates best value standards and authorizes updates by resolution. The board also discussed the proposed imposition of a $15 administrative fee per billing cycle for the Old Forge Water District to fund future system infrastructure and emergency needs, with varying perspectives on whether to base the fee on flat rates or usage. Additionally, the board acknowledged staff resignations and noted upcoming budget meetings.
