About this listen
In this episode, we cover the Brentwood Select Board meeting from August 19th, 2025—a packed agenda featuring major announcements, community discussions, and important decisions. Highlights include John Morgan’s heartfelt resignation from the board, approval of payroll and consent items, and a unique property reassessment for a Middle Road resident. We introduce Julie Stevens as the new Finance Manager, celebrate National Night Out, and hear the retirement announcement of longtime Police Chief Joseph Bird. Other key topics include police detail rate adjustments, building inspector hours, health insurance concerns, Route One Twenty Five speed limit legislation, fire department updates including a new forestry tanker, progress on town-wide property revaluation, and a review of the COLA policy. Public comment raised spirited debate on trash collection, budget clarity, and community transparency. Committee reports rounded out the evening, touching on the municipal building project, highway paving, and upcoming school year events before the board moved into non-public session
