The meeting began with a detailed explanation of the procedural error that led to the omission of the Groton-Dunstable Regional School Committee member position from the ballot. The mistake was attributed to a failure in the town hall’s election process. To remedy the situation, the board and remaining school committee member Christina Andreoli were tasked with appointing a representative to fill the vacancy. Lacy McCabe, who was affected by the error, was appointed to serve through the next annual town election. The board expressed regret over the error and committed to implementing systems to prevent such issues in the future.

Following the appointment, the board moved on to its annual reorganization. It was decided that Ronald Mikol would serve as chair, Leah D. Basbanes as vice-chair, and a new member welcomed to the board would take on the role of selectman member.
