Longer-form draft.
Transparency Alert: During the July 7 Selectboard meeting, the board made a substantive decision regarding the management of $22,458 in insurance proceeds following the library flooding. However, this topic was not included on the public agenda. The board deliberated on whether to provide the funds directly to the library or to require the library to submit invoices to the town for reimbursement. The board ultimately decided that the library must submit invoices to the town, which will then pay them directly from the insurance proceeds. Because this was not an agenda item, residents were not given the opportunity to prepare for or participate in a discussion regarding the handling of these significant funds. Decisions involving the distribution of thousands of dollars in town-related funds should be transparently scheduled so the community can weigh in. Additionally, one board member abstained from this specific vote, noting a potential conflict of interest regarding Primex. We are highlighting this to remind residents of the importance of prior notice for all significant town decisions. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/brentwood/select-board/2026-07-07/ #MeetingWatch #BrentwoodNH
