GENERAL BUSINESS/BOARD DISCUSSION
The Board confirmed the date of the Chichester/Epsom Perambulation to occur on April 10, 2004.
The bid notice for municipal grounds maintenance was reviewed by the Board and the office staff was directed to post the notice and to forward request letters to all parties of interest on record.
Lisa provided the Board with an update on the current status of application for the position of the Office Assistant/Bookkeeper. To date there have been 12 applications and/or resumes received. The Board agreed to review the received applications and choose top qualifying candidates at the next meeting scheduled for April 6, 2004 and to schedule interviews accordingly.
Selectman DeBold offered to make contact with Road Agent Kenneally concerning the updating and correction of the Town map.
Lisa provided the Board with feedback from Town Counsel Mayer regarding the sale of the Flander’s property. It is Mayer’s opinion that it would be to the best interest of the Town to dissolve their interest in said parcel by means of sealed bid or public auction. Mayer did request and has been forwarded information regarding the tax deed transfer to ensure acquisition of the parcel was done correctly. The Board shall decide upon their method of disposition at the forthcoming meeting.
Motion Selectman MacCleery and seconded by Selectman DeBold to rescind the Board’s decision on February 24, 2004 in regards to the waiver of such impact fee imposed upon Michael McKay for property located on Back Road referred to as Map 7 Lot 13, because the zoning change that was approved in March is retroactive back to the posting of the public hearing notice. All were in favor, motion carries.
Lisa was directed by the Board to draft a letter to the McKay’s in reference to this motion, stating that an impact fee shall be imposed and must be received prior to the issuance of any permit of occupancy for said parcel.
Mail and e-mail was reviewed. Accounts payable and payroll were signed.
The minutes of March 23, 2004 were approved as written.
Being no further business, the Chairman adjourned the meeting at 9:35pm.
Respectfully submitted,
Jamie A. Pike
Office Assistant
