Selectmen’s Meeting
Pledge of Allegiance
Roll Call: Harold Wright, Chairman; Jack Meaney, Selectman; Barry Wheeler, Selectman
The meeting opened at 5:30pm.
1. Marlene Freyler reported on receiving three inquires regarding fireworks for Independence Day. She will return with more information next week.
2. Will Trueax and Kyle Whitehead met with selectmen regarding repairs to the Bement Bridge. The men outlined the problems they observed and asked the Board what the Town’s plan was. At this time, the town has not received a final review from the State Department of Transportation. If the town were to make the repair under the Municipal Bridge Program, it would need to follow a formal process of engineering/permitting and contractor selection. The following question was asked: If the town chose to handle the matter itself would the state allow the bridge to be returned to active service? Cheryl will check with the state bridge department.
The Selectmen reviewed and signed payable and payroll manifests
The Board signed letters to the Kearsarge Area Preschool terminating its lease on June 30, 2012 and a letter to The Children’s Center for Creative Learning to delay the beginning of their lease until July 1, 2012.
