* Negotiation of a tax agreement with Tufts University’s Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine regarding solar installation: The solar setup would would yield just under $915,000 over 20 years.

* Adjustments from the fiscal 2013 budget: Moved money from the health insurance line to the snow and ice removal budget.

Town Meeting did not approve:
