The second donation of $1,500 is for the town center flagpole improvement trust fund. Both motions were approved unanimously by a 5-0-0 vote.
Community Organizations Report Progress on Events and Fundraising
Mr. Keishan provided updates on several community organizations and events. The Historical Society is open on Saturdays, meets monthly, and may be renamed. The Pelham Community Coalition Road Race raised over $12,000, with funds returning to Pelham, and purchased a trailer to educate parents. Pelham Community Spirit's Independence Day event proceeded despite an early fireworks display due to weather concerns, and they are now planning the Festival of Trees. Volunteers are encouraged to join Pelham Community Spirit, which meets monthly and requires significant time commitment for events.
Community Power Program Updates and Rate Comparisons Provided
Mr. Gagnon provided an update on the Community Power program, clarifying that recent bills may not yet reflect updated rates as the program officially went live in June. Bills received in July should include the new rates and reference to Pelham and Community Power. The current rate is 11 cents per kilowatt hour for a six-month contract until November. Liberty's current rate is 13 cents per kilowatt hour and will increase to 15 cents in August. Residents with billing questions can contact Emily Manns at ecmpower.com.
