North Branford meeting roundup: Quiet stretch as multiple boards cancel; PZC sets July 16 public hearings
North Branford's boards and commissions had a light two weeks, with five of seven scheduled meetings cancelled — most for lack of a quorum or lack of business. The one substantive meeting on the calendar, the Board of Education's June 30 session, included the superintendent's contract and the NBHS renovation project on its agenda, but minutes have not yet been published, so outcomes are not available.
Board of Education — June 30
The Board of Education's June 30 meeting agenda listed several significant items, but because only the agenda has been published and minutes are not yet available, it is not possible to report what, if anything, was decided.
Agenda items included:
- Superintendent's contract extension and salary — discussion and possible action
- NBHS Renovation Project — discussion
- Town manager pending requests — discussion
- Bargaining unit negotiations — discussion and possible action
- Consent agenda: resignations and appointments
Residents seeking the outcome of any votes should watch for the board's published minutes.
