Approximately seventy-five Windham community residents
joined Town Council members, Clayton Haskell, Jarrod Maxfield, Tim Nangle, Dave
Nadeau along with Interim Town Manager Don Gerish and Town Clerk, Linda Morrill
at the annual town hall meeting on Saturday, June 15 from 9:45 a.m. to
approximately 10:15 a.m.
The first article of business was to elect a moderator of
which Representative Patrick Corey was chosen. Before voting on the other six
articles that included excise tax receipts, recreation program fees, user fees
against operations of sewer funds, miscellaneous revenues, unappropriated
funds, an authorization of the municipal budget for the fiscal year 2019-2020,
discussions occurred between town officials and community members in a question
and answer format. All six articles passed.
Immediately following the town hall meeting, a public forum
to discuss a community survey of town residents with the intention of creating
a Windham Age-Friendly community occurred. Briefly, the survey suggestions
included the following subjects: transportation, housing, neighborhoods,
environment, health, engagement, and opportunities. The funding for the forum (and
the survey that will be sent out in the late summer) is provided by a grant by
AARP. Refreshments were provided.
