Community Preservation Committee · Meeting of May 28, 2026

Grafton's Community Preservation Committee approved up to $1,000 more for a double-sided Silver Lake sign and began planning a June 18 public hearing. Chairman John Stephens said about $1,144,962 remains for the October Town Meeting, and members accepted the treasurer's report. Committee members agreed to advertise the hearing in both The Grafton News and the Community Advocate, citing the Advocate's open access.

A member said they will step down from the At-Large seat because another resident applied. A member reported that rental assistance has used about $15,000, helping four households with roughly $3,338 in first-month costs last month. He also raised a possible future request to help turn over aging affordable units, with no proposal submitted.
