Chair Juliet Hodge led discussion of public input summary showing consensus on village revitalization and school challenges but disagreement on mechanisms like infrastructure investment and density; the committee noted the 2016 plan was not implemented and stressed the need for clear prioritization, inter-commission coordination, and quarterly reporting to the Town Council rather than another aspirational document. An outside consultant will facilitate a visioning session beginning in early June, and the committee approved prior minutes unanimously while noting the plan is now one to two months behind schedule.
