Meeting was called to order by Chairman Larry Rappaport.
Selectmen signed all vouchers and manifests.
Mr. Rappaport discussed with the other Board members the ambulance building issue. He asked for feedback from the Board in regard to building location and a method of billing for all towns that will be served by the ambulance service. Mr. Lamontagne suggested using the formula that Colebrook is hoping to use for the Dispatch Department as it is based on valuation, population, and number of calls. He said that this would be similar to the needs of the ambulance service.
Gail Purrington asked if the Board was aware if the CDC (Colebrook Development Corporation) has signed the conservation easement and if it had been filed at the Registry of Deeds. No one on the Board knew if this had been done. Mr. Rappaport and/or Mr. Lamontagne will find out and to remind them that this information needs to be received before November 30 to meet the grant requirements. Gail said that she had talked to Mr. Eldridge the owner of D&E Machines in regard to the easement. He said that he wasn’t sure what his company planned on doing. He had concerns as to the placement of the Riverwalk because D&E might be considering an expansion. Mr. McKinnon and Ms. Hyde offered to go see Mr. Eldridge and explain the process and the need of their participation. The Board
Meeting adjourned at 6:30 pm on a motion by Mr. Lamontagne and seconded by Mr. Dumaine. All approved 3-0.
Respectfully submitted,
Gail A. Purrington
