Voters approved Article 2, authorizing the expenditure of $679,000 from free cash to fund a variety of essential capital projects across town departments. The appropriation follows a report from Town Manager Bill Chenard that the town's ongoing public safety projects—including the fire substation and headquarters—are currently tracking both on time and under their $61.1 million budget.

The capital funding approved under Article 2 covers a broad range of equipment and infrastructure needs. While specific line items were not debated at length, the motion passed with a clear majority, reflecting the town's commitment to maintaining its facilities and vehicle fleets using available certified free cash rather than taking on additional debt. Following the vote, a local resident requested a special acknowledgement for Linda and Alan Peterson, who recently made a $1 million donation toward the library’s children’s wing, the largest donation in Pembroke's history.

Motion: That the sum of $679,000 is appropriated for the capital projects described in the table contained in Article 2.

Vote: Passed - Clear majority
