Both applicants assured Davy that they are actively attempting to find a location for a skateboard park.
Because some of the members of the Commission are employees of the Town, the Board commented that it intends to reappoint the incumbents but will hold the reappointments until Town Counsel determines if there can be a Special Municipal Employee designation for these seats. Meschino asked that the two applicants for the positions, interviewed recently, be notified of the Board’s intent to reappoint.
