BOARD MEETING MINUTES
March 12, 2007
Selectmen Present: Mr. Parker, Mr. Methe and Mr. Yon
At 1:05 pm Mr. Parker convened the meeting.
PRIMARY:
The selectmen went through the warrant articles deciding who would move each one at the town meeting tomorrow night.
They discussed the article to raise money for assessment. The board has three proposals:
Avitar – 75,000
Cross Country – 105,000
Vision – 68,000
Avitar’s proposal includes assessing and tax software, maintenance contract and sales study update. The cost for the first year is $75,100. This is just a little more than Vision but Vision’s does not include new software or maintenance contract. Cross Country’s proposal is very high. The board is leaning toward going with Avitar. Tom will move the article to the floor. Carmen will move to amend the amount to $65,000. This plus what we have in capital reserve will cover the cost of going with Avitar and give an extra $10,000 just in case we need it.
Mike would like to see the Conservation Commission with more diverse members. There will be some openings on the Commission. The selectmen will think about this.
At 2:55pm, Mr. Methe made a motion to adjourn. Mr. Yon seconded and the motion passed 3-0.
