The committee analyzed FlashVote survey results, noting that community feedback favors practical utility for the 1934 building over sentimental preservation. Financial strategies were reviewed, including utilizing Tax Increment Financing (TIF) and credit enhancement agreements to incentivize private development of the current town hall site.
