The Lyman Select Board’s regular meeting on August 17, 2026, approved the bid from Municipal Consulting Group for assessing services. Members cited the firm’s staffing depth and continuity compared with a single-person provider; the town manager said both proposals covered the requested scope, estimated at 12–15 hours per week, and that the allocated assessor budget plus benefits would cover the MCG bid. No bid price was stated in the transcript. The board also approved accounts payable warrant No. 18 for fiscal year 2026 in the clearly transcribed amount of $1,911.13; other warrant amounts in the transcript are unclear.

The fire commission update noted that cardiac monitors are being considered for purchase through the GMFR reserve, with quotes to be presented to both boards for approval when available. Repairs to broken hydrant pipes were also reported as in progress or planned, though no costs or procurement decisions were provided. The board separately approved a $175.31 payment of remaining funds to the Lyman Historical Society and closure of its fundraising account, and approved an EMS transportation resolution. No other contract awards or bid approvals were identified.
