The Town of Southborough Trails Committee on March 20 voted to approve its minutes as amended and later voted to adjourn at 7:58 p.m. The committee also sought an accounting of remaining trail funds and discussed mowing contracts, bench installations and community programming.

A motion “to approve the minutes as amended” was made and seconded; committee members voted by roll call. Will Warren, Kat McKee and Satyendra Sharma voted in favor. The chair announced the minutes would be submitted following the vote.

Committee members asked staff for a budget accounting so they can identify available funds before the fiscal year ends June 30. “I asked for an accounting so we know what our budget is,” Kat McKee said, noting the committee had a larger budget this year because of mowing. McKee said she will coordinate with Travis, the recreation director, and DPW—the department holding the town’s mowing contract—to confirm mowing coverage into the Westboro line and to ensure the contractor is meeting stated contract limits.

The committee also discussed installing benches and scheduling work parties, and asked members to propose options for weekday evening work sessions rather than full weekend days to accommodate people with full-time jobs. McKee asked members to bring ideas for map-making and said two members had volunteered to help with maps if the committee decides to allocate budget for that work.

The committee set a target meeting in early April and proposed April 10 at 7:30 p.m.; McKee said she would send a calendar invite. The meeting ended with a motion to adjourn at 7:58 p.m.; Will Warren seconded the motion and roll call votes were recorded.
