Town of Princeton, Mass. – February 6, 2017 – 5 PM
Princeton Broadband MLP – Regular Meeting Minutes
Chairman Stan Moss, Edith Morgan and Jon Fudeman present;. TA Nina Nazarian. Marty Dell’Erba also present.
5 PM Stan opened meeting of PBMLP in the Town Hall Annex. Marty Dell’Erba explained that the line work that Axia is doing is now split—one job is transfers and the other job is line lowering. With Verizon, he reported that pole license #6 is 92 percent done and #7 is 70 percent complete, and #8 – 13 are pending. He received a bill for overage on Lic. #3 but didn’t know what for, and getting info from Verizon is close to impossible. The town received a refund from Lic. #5 of $151. Past overages were due to police details, but Marty will follow up.
The board voted all in favor to pay Verizon the overage invoice for Lic. #3 as submitted at $1,126.27.
The staff at MBI has called a meeting in Worthington (Berkshires) for Feb. 16 regarding the RFPs, and Marty will likely attend. Peter Larkin and others from MBI met with Stan and Nina last Thursday and there was nothing new in their presentation.
There is a group of towns to the west that is going through the same process with cable TV vendors and Stan offered to email them with what Princeton has learned so far.
Board voted all in favor to approve the PBMLP minutes from Jan. 23, 2017 with amendment to indicate that Nina was absent.
Wayne Adams from Adv. Cmte. asked about a proposal from Crocker Communications and was informed that Crocker’s proposal didn’t meet the town’s criteria.
5:25 PM PBMLP voted to adjourn and selectmen returned to regular BOS meeting.
Respectfully submitted, Marie Auger, Admin. Assistant
