Bill Brown explained to the Board that one of the Selectmen suggested that "outsourcing" of
mowing etc. should be discussed with the proposed new building. He explained to the Board
that under Section 27 of Chapter 114, the Board and not the Selectmen hire the cemetery help.
The Board did not feel outsourcing would be good.

self - supporting.
