MILTON — Warrant Committee structures 2026 town meeting with consent agenda. Town Moderator Liz Dillon outlined the proposed consent agenda for routine articles and flagged larger items—school budget, Atherton Fire Station, energy articles, and Wharf Park—for full presentation. The committee sought Town Counsel guidance on a sign bylaw amendment extending initial application approval from 7 to 30 days, particularly whether the timeline resets if an applicant must cure deficiencies.
Counsel later confirmed that under the proposed amendment the town takes the full 30 days for initial approval, with the period restarting if application issues arise. The committee adjourned unanimously to Annual Town Meeting.
