Mr. Foucher to use the Town Hall to provide service in town for the internet . Mrs. Silverman stated that the board would like
something in writing with regard to his plans. Mr. Foucher stated that currently the town hall is receiving 10 megabytes of
speed which they were able to do for the town because of the straight line of service. Mr. Foucher stated that he has
considered adding an antennae at the Depot Station as well. He feels all transmitting from the Town Hall can be inside the
tower. He could add a panel to the outside of the building, this would be a flat panel that would match the tower, this would
give better performance. In his proposal to the State for the grant he indicated that he would provide police, fire, town
buildings and the school service for three years with no charge. Mrs. Silverman stated that this should be included in his
material. We will hold an informational meeting on January 26 at 7:00 pm.
