Select Board · Meeting of June 29, 2026

PAXTON — The Paxton Select Board adopted the town's Hazard Mitigation Plan and approved three fire department budget transfers before closing the meeting for executive session. Board members unanimously approved moving $4,466.69 from town insurance to purchase of services, $6,000 from employee benefits to purchase of services, and $26,500 from employee benefits to wages, all requested by the fire department ahead of the June 30 fiscal year-end. No residents signed up for citizen speak.

The board then voted by roll call to enter executive session under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 30A, Section 21, to discuss police union contract bargaining, a Director of Public Works contract, and a real estate purchase and exchange matter, with the chair noting the board would "return only to adjourn."
