Meeting called to order 7:05pm
VanTine reported that Comcast had reviewed and modified the contract draft. Attorney August reviewed the modifications and had no issue. All agreed to remove “Liquidated Damages” section. All were ok with the rewrite of Section 6.8.
Attendees discussed Paul Yannoni’s proposal to ask Comcast to pay the Town if they were authorized to abandon responsibility for the passive cable network (PCN). Bernklow moved that after examination and consideration, we find it not feasible to pursue an agreement with Comcast to reimburse the Town should they abandon the PCN. Golder seconded and it was approved unanimously.
Bernklow moved and Golder seconded to recommend Selectmen approval of the senor discount side letter. This was approved unanimously. Bernklow moved and Lavina seconded that we not raise the HD issue as an item to add to the contract. This was approved by a 2 to 1 vote.
Bernklow moved and Golder seconded to accept the Oct 9 version as draft. This was approved unanimously.
Discussion took place of the process for submitting the contract to the Selectmen to enable them to prepare for the meeting when they would be asked to approve it.
Bernklow moved and Golder seconded to authorize spending for a Video Level Meter. This was approved unanimously.
VanTine proposed rewarding Lew Halprin for his contributions to Town meeting setup. Golder moved to compensate Lew $100 for his service in single-handedly setting up audio for the October town meeting. This was approved unanimously.
At 8:35, Bernklow made a motion that the committee adjourn. The motion was seconded by Golder and received a unanimous vote to accept.
