Longer-form draft.
At the June 1 Select Board meeting, several issues were addressed that directly impact Falmouth residents, ranging from school safety oversight to significant potential infrastructure costs. A resident raised a critical concern regarding the North Falmouth Elementary roof project, specifically citing a lack of professional oversight, management, and documentation regarding the structural integrity of the roof. While the Chair acknowledged the speaker, the Board did not offer a substantive response or outline any steps to ensure proper project management moving forward. On the fiscal front, the Board approved a charging document for a new 'Watershed Management Financial Fairness Task Force.' This group will be tasked with deciding how the costs of mandated innovative septic systems and sewer connections are distributed among residents. For homeowners required to make these upgrades, the decisions made by this task force will have a direct impact on their finances. Finally, the Board delayed the adoption of a new Artificial Intelligence policy. The discussion centered on whether town staff should be required to disclose the use of AI in public communications to ensure transparency. A revised draft is being prepared for the next meeting. https://meetingwatch.org/ma/falmouth/select-board/2026-06-01/ #MeetingWatch #FalmouthMA
