OLD BUSINESS:
DPW Superintendent Kellaher was present to notify the Board that a change order was needed for the above-ground fuel storage tanks. He explained that the an additional $36,000 was needed on top of the $83,000 original bid in order to add a security system and other “bells & whistles”. An article could be added to the upcoming special town meeting to transfer money for the change order, otherwise it would have to be re-bid. Lengthy discussion. Mr. Pantos moved to allow the DPW Superintendent to proceed subject to getting authorization from Town Counsel on the funding mechanism and the change order being acceptable without having to re-bid and if a re-bid is required, then to proceed with the re-bid process. Mr. Becker seconded. Vote unanimous.
Mr. Becker moved to add an article to the November 13th special town meeting warrant to transfer a sum of money from the primary building article capital account to the fuel storage tank article account; or take any action in relation thereto. Mr. Pantos seconded. Vote unanimous.
Mr. Pantos moved to enter into executive session for Reason #2: To conduct strategy sessions in preparation for negotiations with non-union personnel or to conduct collective bargaining sessions or contract negotiations with non-union personnel and to move back into open session for adjournment purposes only. Mr. Becker seconded. Pantos aye, Becker aye, Clark aye.
Mr. Pantos moved to adjourn. Mr. Becker seconded. Vote unanimous. Meeting adjourned at 8:15 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Nancy M. Macaruso, Secretary
