Members reported $515,657.61 in undesignated funds, including the estimated state match, and floated about $150,000 per category. Architect Robert Harrison said Berkshire Playhouse cupola repairs would cost "no less than $40,000" and possibly double.
Ron Broker sought roughly $53,000 for a parking-area stone wall and related work, while Kevin Foran requested $5,000 for invasives work and another $5,000 for 15 nut trees at Bullard Woods. An agricultural commission representative proposed a $25,000 seed contribution to an agricultural preservation fund. Members approved minutes from two earlier meetings.
