She noted on Friday the Board <br /> of Health discussed multifamily buildings and they now must report positive cases to the <br /> building for the safety of others living in the building. The Town has access to all the school <br /> nurses now. Their next steps are an educational outreach. <br /> Town Manager Bob LeLacheur gave a quick update and noted the Community Services <br /> secured another $15,000 grant. <br /> Public Comment - Timothy Kirwan sent an email asking if food and beverage establishments <br /> will need to be re-inspected before opening again and it was noted yes, they would. <br /> Assistant Town Manager Jean Delios and Community Development Director Julie Mercier <br /> gave the board an update focused on their land use boards and public hearings. Right now <br /> their thoughts are it is best to hold off on public hearings until a little more guidance is <br /> available. ZBA and CPDC applicants have been contacted and there has been no pushback <br /> about holding off with their applications at the moment. They plan to reconsider this in May <br /> if they can figure out how to allow public participation. The board agreed to have Town <br /> Counsel come up with some language universal to all boards regarding hearings. <br /> Economic Development Director Erin Schaeffer then gave the board an update of what she <br /> has been working on. She noted the new COVID-19 for businesses page she has created on <br /> the town website. She keeps this page updated daily and recently updated the business <br /> support letter. <br /> Page 1 1 <br />
