Coordinator Report

September 15, 2011

Constable Day posted the Special Town Meeting scheduled September 26 at
7 pm. The warrant consists of two pages of articles and seven pages of
attached zoning changes which includes two maps. Nick developed a
document with track changes which I have printed and supplied to the
library and town clerk.

I have scheduled the 3rd annual Internet Satellite Dish Toss for 5:45 pm
that evening and the Fire Dept. will sell hot dogs beginning at 5:30 pm
so folks can get a bite to eat. At 6:45 pm we will dedicate the maple
tree to Les Goodman. Postcards were mailed this week to publicize the
meeting and events.

Alana Day of Orange Rd has volunteered and will be appointed to the
Cemetery Commission by the Selectboard Monday evening, making a full
committee. Jim Toth, former commissioner has graciously volunteered to
continue to help the committee learn the ropes.

Building inspector Delorey will join Attorney Dupere and me in housing
court on the 16th in the Severance matter. I will seek an order allowing
night time inspections and an order to hire contractors to finish the
project within two months. The Gallagher and Dyer ZBA special permit
applications were received and the hearings scheduled for Oct 27 at 7
pm.

Highway department got the crack sealing done on the school driveway and
ball court.

We executed the $50k grant agreement with Mass Broadband Institute.

I have posted the 9/21 joint meeting with the Board of Health to discuss
management and governance of the transfer station. We will need to meet
in the board room on the second floor as the Historical Society has
reserved the dining hall.

We are making some sand bags to secure the soccer goals. Thanks to Steve
Rugerrio for the empty bags. The goals were held down with tent stakes
but we are seeing too much water. The school administration raised a
safety issue that the bags will solve. The recreation committee has
reserved the Town hall for a Halloween party on Monday the 31st of Oct.
The Selectboard meets that night so we will need to meet in the board
room. Feel free to come in costume.

I have lined up boiler / furnace cleaning for library and town hall.

We transferred the old copier to the library, the library's old copier
to the police department. The flags at Fellows memorial and the Veterans
monument are faded so I have ordered new ones. I will get the crab apple
trees pruned.

I am out of the office next week during the day Monday, Thursday pm and
Friday for outside business. I will return to town in time for the
Selectboard meeting Monday evening.
