6. Henry Hamilton was told the board that David Rogers would not be attending the meeting tonight, as this was not a public hearing. Henry said that they had spent $5000. for the report that he gave the board. To have him here now would be a cost and then if there was a public hearing they would have to pay him again. Basically the report was submitted completed to develop a preservation plan as to what needs to be done to the town hall. The board explained that the town has financial restraints, at this time there is no extra money available for major reconstruction. They feel that there are grants that may be available. They would need to know what the grant requirements would and they need to have an idea of the cost. Tom stated that the major reason they looked at this building was the vault. If the vault
is no good we need to find a place or figure how to get a vault for your materials. Lenny said he thinks we should preserve the building but that does not include a reconstruction job. Make the building accessible so it may be used.
