Longer-form draft.
At the October 21 joint School Board and Select Board meeting, residents raised ongoing issues with George's Park planning, including bathroom placement tied to leach field failure and the need for a multi-stakeholder steering committee to oversee the 2018 five-year plan. The boards responded with acknowledgment but no discussion or commitment to form such a group. Public comment also noted a potential conflict of interest on the high school security redesign RFP and asked about forum accessibility. The board assigned a legal review for the next meeting but took no immediate steps. Wastewater repairs and recycling program changes after the green bag transition were discussed with limited follow-through on cost prioritization. Budget coordination for FY2027 was set with public hearings planned for March 2026 and zero-based reviews underway. No fund balance projections were provided at this session. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/hopkinton/school-board/2025-10-21/ #MeetingWatch #HopkintonNH
