What Are Hamilton Selectmen Talking About on Monday Night?

The Hamilton Board of Selectmen meet on Monday night for its first regular meeting since the Special Town Meeting earlier this month where voters turned down the town's proposed purchase of the Pirie property.

The board will debrief the meeting and also hear a presentation from Planning Coordinator Kristine Cheetham about downtown planning and a grant for the work.

At the end, the board is slated to go into executive session to discuss a challenge to the town's new ambulance contract, which was slated to move from Lyons Ambulance to Beauport ambulance next month. Take a look at the complete agenda below.
