Council authorized the mayor to sign a five‑year operations, management and maintenance agreement enabling Braintree to operate the Triton treatment plant that serves Braintree, Randolph and Holbrook; the agreement includes two optional five‑year renewals and budget transparency provisions.

Council unanimously approved multiple FY2026 supplemental motions to fund startup operations of the Tri Town (Triton) water treatment plant; the finance director said Braintree will act as contracted operator for the stub year and will bill partner towns for their shares.
