On the agenda is setting the hours for the upcoming Nov. 4, 2025, municipal election. The Council is expected to set polling hours at the city’s six wards from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

One resolution would authorize a $900,000 expenditure for a new fire pumper truck to be used for everyday EMS emergencies and provide water for an immediate fire attack. The other resolution would authorize spending $52,400 to equip the department’s recently leased garage maintenance space.

The City Council will also consider authorizing the sale of a city parcel of land in Rollinsford that recently went through a competitive bid process.
