WATERTOWN — Library trustees approved the Watertown library as polling place for September 1 and November 3 elections. Director Long presented facility improvements including new wayfinding signage and a multi-phase lobby reconfiguration that would replace the existing 17-foot by 4-foot circulation desk with smaller, wheeled desks, with Phase 1 completion hoped for by fall. The FY26 financial report was accepted showing 95.3 percent of the fiscal year budget spent, and the trustees reviewed the FY27 Action Plan including annual heritage displays and outreach to the homeschooling community.
