Other Business
Highway: Selectmen DeBold reminded Jim to provide a draft of a new winter policy. The inmate program was discussed. Jim and crew will be hosting a Road Scholars event in
March. Mr. Paveglio told Jim that he has been doing an excellent job with the scheduling and keeping the overtime hours down. Snow removal routes/procedures were discussed.
Fire Department: The Selectmen thank the Fire Department for shoveling off the Community Building Roof.
Jamie Pike: The Selectmen thank Jamie Pike for his work last week, when an unexpected issue left the Town Hall without water. Jamie worked with the electrician and did a lot of heavy snow moving to get the project completed.
Merrill: Jamie Pike informed the Selectmen that Frank Merrill is going forward with his subdivision on Healy Pasture Road. The AG’s office will be asking for a letter from the Selectmen stating that the Town will accept the road upon its completion. Jamie will provide the plans and have a draft letter for next Tuesday.
Zoning: The Selectmen received a zoning complaint regarding lighting (road glare) for several businesses on Route 4. Nancy will follow up with Sisti’s. The Selectmen will investigate the other properties.
Warrant: The Library roof replacement article was discussed. Nancy asked about having it on the Selectmen’s warrant if they are not going to recommend it. It was suggested that an article be placed on the warrant to name the Selectmen as agents to the Library Capital Reserve Fund and removing the roof article from the warrant. Since the money for the project is already in the fund, naming an agent would enable the library decide to have the work done mid-year if needed. This would not bind the Town into having work done that may not be needed at this time. Nancy will review with the Library Trustees and invite them to next week’s meeting.
Other: The Selectmen will be having a work session on March 2nd at 5:30 to go over the PowerPoint for Town Meeting. Town Meeting procedures were discussed. The Town Report was discussed.
Accounts payable and payroll were approved.
A motion by Mr. Paveglio and seconded by Mr. DeBold to adjourn the meeting at 8:20pm. Motion passes.
Respectfully submitted,
Approved
Nancy Tanner
