Meeting
Notes:
·
Wolfgang called the
meeting to order at
· The committee reviewed the building options that Janet Mahannah incorporated into the draft power point presentation for the Information Meeting.
· The committee reviewed the “To Do” list.
· Julie has received design prices from:
o Professional Engineering Design, LLC (Eric Grondahl)
o Andrew McCullough
· Is expecting additional proposals from :
o Bill Hamilton
o
o Smith Reuter
o Scott Burkett (possibly)
· Julie has received insurance quotes on a $300,000 and a $500,000 building from MMA risk management to use in the “anticipated operating and maintenance costs table”
· She has also received information regarding operation and maintenance from some other towns. The proposed table is a “best guess” which the Committee reviewed and approved. $2,000 per year was added as an estimate for snow removal.
· It will be more difficult to produce the table for anticipated building costs but a “best guess” will be made once the design proposals have all been received.
· Julie has contacted the administrative assistant (D.J. Curtis) who will help with tabulation of effects on taxes.
· Julie has also contacted MMA legal for assistance in writing the article(s) to be presented at the Special Town Meeting on June 14th.
· Julie will continue to work with Janet Mahannah to complete the Power Point presentation.
· The entire presentation will be made by one individual (probably Julie) and questions will be answered by the appropriate parties afterwards.
· Most questions will be answered by the Fire Chief; Ron Kiesman will discuss the property and Bill Jones and Jim Willey will respond to questions regarding their discussions with Bridgton and Lovell about providing fire protection coverage.
· The committee has yet to divide up the questions relating to their work.
· There will be so much information that it will be best to make the presentation, give attendees paper and pencil to write down their questions and allow for questions and answers at the end.
· The committee also agreed to have another meeting to prepare for the information meeting next Tuesday May 13, 2008 from 9-10:00 AM.(a regular meeting date anyway)
· The meeting was adjourned at 9:30 AM.
