At its March 9 meeting the Holderness Select Board heard Police Chief DiFilippe express strong disappointment that an MOU with Plymouth State University remains stalled and may not be approved. The board did not discuss the issue further in open session.
The board also voted unanimously to hold a non-public session under RSA 91A:3, II(l) and later voted to seal those minutes. No description of the topic was provided before the public was excluded.
Other actions were routine: 5-0 approvals of payroll, recent minutes, consent agenda items including ballot clerk appointments, and plans for a March 16 open house honoring the retiring Town Administrator. Cell tower clearing is set to begin April 14.
