At Monday night's meeting trustees approved a contract with U.S. Equities to determine the best uses for their downtown properties and find potential developers.

The economic development commission is also in the midst of reworking its restaurant grant program. Trustees had conversations with two brokerage firms during closed session meetings earlier this year (the minutes have since been released to the public). Monday night trustees approved a brokerage agreement with U.…
