ORLEANS — The Finance Committee unanimously approved revised language for its wastewater article ahead of the November 16 special town meeting. Vice Chair Elaine Baird moved to adopt amended wording describing the article as "a modest funding allocation to bring appropriate experts before the Town to explain the feasibility, costs, and likely effectiveness of multiple potential paths, including sewering," a motion seconded by Edmund Mahoney that carried 5-0. The committee also approved three sets of prior minutes unanimously and discussed scheduling for reviewing articles with financial implications ahead of the November 16 vote.
