    <summary>The board voted to substantiate an application for an interest-free loan from the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority for the Presidential and Fisher Road waterline looping project. The project connects two dead-end water lines under the CSX railroad tracks to improve water pressure and reduce bacterial buildup. The loan is estimated to save the town over $400,000 in interest costs compared to traditional borrowing. Outcome: Approved the Select Board vote supporting the $1 million MWRA loan application.</summary>

Outcome: Committee will report its position at Town Meeting.</summary>
