Ouellette suggests utilizing\u00a0OneDrive cloud storage\u00a0through their existing professional software accounts to create\u00a0shared folders\u00a0for all committee members. While the town acknowledges this need, officials explain that they are still working on\u00a0integrating external access\u00a0for boards after past difficulties with other file-sharing platforms. Ultimately, the discussion highlights a push for\u00a0greater digital transparency\u00a0and better preparation through improved\u00a0technical infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The TownUndergound fully supports Ouellette&#8217;s request and suggestions.
