The Select Board approved a contract with Stonem Ford Motor Company for a Ford F-150 responder vehicle for the police department. The cost of this vehicle is $48,779.

Fire Department Air Pack Replacement Contract Approved
The Select Board approved contract EFD 2026-10 with Industrial Protective Services LLC for breathing air packs for the Fire Department. The fire chief explained that the current air packs, ranging from 2007 to 2013, are outdated, costly to maintain, and no longer serviced by manufacturers, putting the department behind industry safety standards by two cycles. The new packs will ensure proper functionality and safety for firefighters. The contract amount was not explicitly stated in the provided text but was implied to be approved.

The Select Board approved a contract with Global Public Safety LLC for the upfitting of three police vehicles. This upfitting includes lights, sirens, consoles, and other necessary equipment. The cost of this contract is $106,107. Funds for this upfitting were approved as part of the fiscal year 2027 capital budget request for the police department at the 2026 annual town meeting. Chief Boon and Town Administrator Liz Deni recommended approval.
Swift Park Development Nears Completion, Enhancing Community Connectivity
The Select Board discussed the Swift Park development project on Foundry Street, which is nearing its final stages. The parking lot off Pquanica Street is scheduled for final paving. Recent improvements include the installation of trees, grass, and signage, giving the park a cohesive appearance. The project, supported by CPA funds and community input through town meeting, is seen as a significant addition that will enhance connectivity between Five Corners, Target, and Avalon. The development is a transformation from its previous state and is expected to be a valuable community asset for years to come.
Town and School Departments to Implement Tyler Technologies Munis ERPM Software
The Select Board discussed and approved a contract with Tyler Technologies for the Munis Enterprise Resource Management Planning (ERPM) software. This is a three-year contract that includes conversion, implementation, and migration costs, with an estimated total cost of $1.1 million over three years. The annual cost is approximately $170,000, split between the town and school department. Funding is a combination of a $750,000 town meeting appropriation, a $300,000 school department commitment, and annual operating budgets. The software is cloud-based for security and is widely used across Massachusetts. The system will integrate town and school operations, a significant improvement from previous fragmented systems. Features include customizable dashboards and employee self-service.
