The Hardwick Board of Selectmen convened to address a range of municipal issues, including an appeal concerning the non-renewal of a used car sales license with allegations of deceptive practices, and the process for selling the Ruggles School property. The meeting also covered updates from the Capital Planning Committee, the status of various town projects and grants, and discussions regarding the upcoming Fire Chief replacement. Key decisions included taking the used car license matter under advisement, approving the purchase of a police cruiser contingent on fleet reduction, and moving forward with contacting realtors for the Ruggles School sale.
