The agenda listed a discussion regarding the Standard Power agreement. However, the board went further, voting to dissolve the existing Energy and Efficiency Committee entirely to make way for a new 'Community Power Subcommittee.'

The move follows reports that the town's current broker, Standard Power, has been non-responsive. While the restructuring aims to improve focus, residents should note that a committee was dissolved in a session where only a contract was on the agenda. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/brentwood/select-board/2026-07-21/

Longer-form draft.
During the July 21 Selectboard meeting, two significant decisions were made that impact both town zoning and local governance structure. First, following complaints from a resident regarding unauthorized tree cutting and violations of the 50-foot natural buffer zone, the Selectboard voted 4-1 to issue a cease and desist order for the property at 62 Crowley Falls Road. The property owner argued the work was storm debris cleanup, but the board moved forward with the order to address potential buffer impacts and unauthorized activity. Second, the board took unexpected action regarding the town's energy initiatives. While the agenda item was focused on the Community Power program agreement, the board ultimately voted to terminate the contract with Standard Power—citing non-performance—and to dissolve the current Energy and Efficiency Committee. In its place, they are creating a new, more specialized 'Community Power Subcommittee.' We will continue to monitor how these changes, particularly the committee restructuring, affect the oversight of our town's energy programs. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/brentwood/select-board/2026-07-21/ #MeetingWatch #BrentwoodNH
