2.   Police Department --Chief Shoemaker said that break-ins are on the
increase in the area, and cited one recent break-in here in Town. The
break-ins are happening during the daylight hours by brazen thieves who
kick in doors and take a snatch and grab approach to the thefts. The
Chief strongly reiterated that anyone who observes anything suspicious
or out of the ordinary should call the Police. Lemon suggested that he
ask the public for their help by calling Dispatch if they see or hear
anything suspicious. Shoemaker said that he was quoted in the paper as
asking for help and for people to please come forward with any
information.
	Shoemaker said that there was a large wooden storage chest taken
from one of the cruisers, as it had been replaced by another storage
option. He wanted the chest declared surplus property, which requires a
Selectboard vote.
Lemon MOVED that the large wooden storage chest be designated surplus
property. Magi SECONDED. Motion CARRIED 2-0-0.  

3.	FY 14 Transfer Station Hauling MOU --Young said that a quorum was
not achieved at the Transfer Station Commissioners meeting, the members
present were in favor of the Board signing the trash hauling MOU with
Franklin County Solid Waste Management District. Young recommended that
the Board sign the MOU.

Magi SECONDED. Motion CARRIED 2-0-0.

4.	Seaboard Solar Update--Young said that he had checked over the

months, they still start paying the Town. Young estimates payments could
begin in December of 2013.
5.	Selectboard Reports--There were no reports.   
6.	Coordinator Report--Young said that the list of reappointments
needed further review and would be presented for a vote at the June 24th
meeting.
7.	New and Other Business--Bill Lyman reported that the Fire
Department evaluation had begun. He noted that Engine 5, which he had
driven to be inspected in May, and which passed inspection, is now out
of service. Ernest Horn inspected the truck so thoroughly that he
identified problems with the springs, and put the truck out of service
pending repairs. Lyman note that they seemed to have hired a very good
consultant.
	Young said that he had been contacted by Leyden this morning about a
meeting set for 9 am on Thursday, June 13th in Leyden. This will be a
joint meeting with the Selectboards of the four PVRS towns, the Leyden
Finance Committee and PVRSD Superintendent Dayle Doiron. Magi and Lemon
both said that they would attend.
	Young requested that the Board appoint Jim McRae to the Transfer
Station Commissioners until the next Annual election. This would fill
the vacancy left when Dick Whiting did not run for election. Young noted
that McRae had previously served on the Board of Health and enjoyed the
Transfer Station aspects of that position.

Commissioners on an interim basis until the 2014 Annual Town Election.
