        Colleen O’Conner interrupted the meeting requesting a copy of a Title 5 Inspection of the Becket General Store.  She was informed that we have not received it as of this time.  She stated that the state DEP had a copy.  We suggested that she get a copy from DEP.

        The 4/15/09 minutes and the 4/24/09 Department Payments to Treasurer were approved.
