Bob explained the process of the RFQ for the purposed new building and that the Town
received only three replies from the twenty-one taken out. Bill Brown explained that perhaps

explain that the review committee was meeting February I P to go over the RFQ's and then set
up interviews.
Bob stated that a long term employee is still out and that a temp is still employed.
There were 17 funerals in January. Bob noted that burials will be done this week despite the

have been strong in the Forest Glen Um Garden and at Wood End.
