                Motion carried 7/0.

The Town Council and the Board of Education members discussed the Board of Education's Capital Improvement Plan with particular emphasis on the roofs at Barnes School and Goodwin School.   Certain building code requirements increased the cost of the Goodwin School roof such that the original bond referendum appropriation would not be sufficient to repair both roofs.  Barnes School will be completed this summer.  Various options for completing the Goodwin School roof will be discussed at a future town council meeting.  The Board of Education indicated that operating funds are being used to complete smaller priority projects in the Capital Improvement Plan.
