*	Town Hall insulation of is complete, and our teen employees will
perform some necessary clean up on the next rainy day, marking the
cracks where insulation blew out of the walls and ceilings for caulking.

Account for chimney pointing and to cap the unused chimney, along with
installing storm windows on the office side of the building.
Arguimbau inquired about the unsightly appearance of the Town Hall
roof peak. Young explained that the material now capping the roof,
called Graves roof seal, works well and has eliminated leakage and

limit reductions in several zones.
