BOARD MEETING MINUTES
May 18, 2005
Selectmen Present: Mrs. Knight, Mr. Clukey and Mrs. Best
At 7:00pm, Mrs. Knight opened the meeting.
PRIMARY:
*** AL GRISWALD: Mr. Griswald stated that he is representing Paquette Appraisal. He
stated that it is his responsibility to obtain tax cards and tax maps. Our office had
recently told them that we would no longer fax the tax cards. This costs them a lot of
extra time and money. They are willing to leave a check with the office ahead of time
and keep a running tab. Mr. Clukey questioned how often we have to fax cards to
their office. Mr. Griswald stated that the last time he spoke with Mrs. Thompson it was
seven cards in a two-week period. Mrs. Knight stated that for this office it is an
interruption. Mrs. Knight stated that this board needs to discuss this matter. The
board discussed this matter and feels it should be the same for everyone. We have
open hours and they will need to obtain the cards in the office during these times.
*** UPDATE ON BRIDGE ON TEMPLETON TURNPIKE: The decision was made to
replace this culvert with another twelve foot culvert. Gene Cuomo spoke with Jeff
Plazarzicks. Mr. Cuomo ordered the culvert today. The cost was $18,000. We are
probably going to have to close this road for a few days. Mrs. Thompson spoke with
Robert Faulkner the engineer that we spoke with, he is not going to bill the town for any
services he provided. We will put a notice in the newsletter with regard to this matter.
*** REVIEW CEMETERY STONE PROPOSALS: The board reviewed these and feel that
we should go ahead. Mrs. Thompson stated that she had left a message for Richard
Paulik to meet with the commissioners for an interview. He did not attend this meeting.
Mr. Greer contacted Mr. Clukey and stated that he does not feel that the relationship
with the Sexton and the Commissioner is working. Mr. Greer contacted Margo and
stated that he does not feel that they have the cooperation with the Board of Selectmen.
Mrs. Knight stated that the Board had in a previous conversation with the Commissioners
told them they could hire a supervisor. Mrs. Thompson will contact Mr. Paulik again
to see if he would like to schedule an interview. Mrs. Thompson spoke with Mike Grab
