The five-member committee, comprising Chris Roman, Greg Pazurchek, Joyce Baldyga, Shila Duffy, and Bob Carr, voted unanimously to approve major grants including $9,999 for holiday lighting, $9,216.33 for fire department water and ice rescue equipment, and $8,000 for Council on Aging Senior Center programs.
