  • General:
Selectmen to consider approval of a transfer of funds in the amount of $73,501 from the Debt Service Account to the Group Health Insurance Account.
Note: This transfer is sometimes necessary because of fluctuations in the number of employees and retirees on our health plans during the year.  The number can increase when there are retirements and we fill the vacancies, or when we add grant-funded positions.  The need can also arise when employees move to a more expensive health plan.
Selectmen to consider approval of a transfer of funds in the amount of $6,000 from the IT Department’s Personnel account to the Town’s Postage account.
Note: This need periodically arises when there are a large number of project mailings throughout the year.

Selectmen to consider approval of updated fee schedule for the building permit fees.
Note:  These fees bring us more in line with surrounding communities and move some of the cost of administering the Building Department from tax-supported to user-supported.
Selectmen to consider voting to not permit any outside vendors along the race route and designated parking areas during the Second Annual Governor Cellucci Tribute 5K Road Race on Saturday, July 25, 2015 between the hours of 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM.
