Cell Phones

Town Administrator David Stack reported that he and the Finance Administrator had met with a Sprint/Nextel sales representative and it looks like he can provide a plan that will save the Town a fair amount of money. The Board asked the Town Administrator to also contact Verizon for a proposal.

Bigelow Road Snow Plowing

Biglow Road neighborhood residents Janet Fortin, Wayne Fortin and Marion Knedler were present. They asked why the Town used to plow Bigelow Road down to Newman Road and now it stops at Big Buck Road. They believe that Bigelow Road was a Town-owned road all the way to Newman Drive. The Board asked the Town Administrator to research the matter and report back to the Board.

FY 2010 Budget Review

The Board reviewed the proposed budget line by line and also reviewed a list of proposed cuts that had been compiled by the Finance Administrator and Town Administrator.  Many cuts and adjustments were made to the proposed budget in an effort to cut the total proposed budget back to the same level it was in FY09. The Board accomplished that goal and reduced the proposed operating budget by $225,171.
