Board of Trustees Meeting Recap

Highlights from the March 20 BOT Meeting:

The Board of Trustees met for their regularly scheduled meeting on Monday, Mar 20, 2023.  They had three public hearings, the consent agenda, general business items and more. The BOT approved Ord. 1142, at the second reading, approving an increase in the local marijuana sales tax to 5%, up from the 3.5% . Per the voters, the BOT may increase the marijuana sales tax up to ten percent (10%) by ordinance, without the need for voter approval. There were two additional public hearings. A first reading to amend a section of the LMC to allow for an increase in the maximum capacity of customer owned generation of electricity to 25 kilowatts, up from 10 kilowatts. A first reading to approve a sale of town land at 2157 Apple Valley Rd.  View a brief recap of the meeting.

Meeting minutes for the previous board meetings are posted in advance of the next BOT meeting for approval and also posted in the agenda center.

In February, the town also published a compendium of reports from town departments, boards and commissions, Lyons area organizations and more. The 2022 Annual Report is found on the town website.
