TIF Advisory Committee - Oct 7, 2026
Some councilors reportedly want to vote against the sewer project to pressure the state into fixing Route 3A intersections. Committee members called that logic flawed, noting traffic to the area comes largely from I-93, not Route 3A, and that the town is already pursuing intersection fixes through the state's ten-year plan.

Capital Improvement Plan Committee - May 6, 2026
The long-planned dual roundabouts at Hackett Hill/Route 3A and Main Street have ballooned from $4.4 million to $11.8 million. The town's ~10% share comes from impact fees, but the project slipped to 2028 amid state funding pressures.
