Executive session
January 11, 1994
The meeting was convened at 9:45 p.m. in the Selectmen's Meeting
Room. Present were Chairman George Hines, Secretary Sally Hoyt,
Selectmen Bill Burditt and Dan Ensminger, Town Manager Peter
Hechenbleikner.
Not all members had the minutes, therefore, approval of minutes
was postponed to a future date.
Regarding litigation, the Town Manager reviewed the status of the
Masse litigation. There is no action to be taken by the Board.
With regard to sale of real estate, the Town Manager indicated
that we extended the time to the end of January to get title in-
surance for Bear Hill. The Board had no objections. Addition-
ally, the Board agreed to meet on January 19, 1994 with the Hous-
ing Authority at 5:30 p.m. for 30 minutes. Following that they
will meet with the developer for the Pearl Street School property
and see if we can get negotiations completed. The Town Manager
will independently contact the MHFA to confirm Mr. Casper' s
statement that an application has been made to federal
authorities to allow an increase in the maximum rent for the low
income program that will be used as part of this project.
George Hines indicated that he had talked with Town Counsel about
South Street, and a decision on our motion for summary judgment
should be in within the next month or so. The actual trial date
for the full hearing is set for the next month and one half.
Town Manager reviewed the status of negotiations with the Police
=}' Superior Officers. The consensus of the Board was that we had
committed to the 2. 5% and 4 . 5% increases including the Quinn
Bill. There was a suggestion that the Board needs to keep
separate the Quinn Bill from the general salary increases. The
Board asked to see if we can get something back in exchange for
this, but even if we are not able to we should go ahead with the
contract as proposed.
On motion by Ensminger seconded by Burditt the Board voted to ad-
journ at 10:45 p.m. All four members present voted in the af-
firmative and the meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,
