1. Secretary's Report
Mr. Fuller moved, Mr. Silvaggi seconded and it was unanimously
voted to accept the report as read.
2. Director Keating outlined for the Board the plans for com-
pleting the front section of Charles Lawn. Weather and help per-
mitting the road should be complete along with loaming by late
summer or early fall.
3. It was suggested that we again look into the possibility of
finding additional lots at Laurel Hill, new lots or buying back
lots that have never been used. Bob will report back to the
Board at some future date.
4. Mr. Amon asked that the Board recognize the fine job done by
Bob and his staff in preparing the cemeteries for the Memorial
Day activities. It was quickly noted by all present that it was
indeed a fine job and that Bob and his staff should be as proud
as the Town was of their good work.
5. The question was raised by Mr. Amon as to when the Franklin
Street property would be turned over to the Board. The Chairman
will find out and report at a future meeting.
6. Director Keating displayed the new aerial photos for the
Board's review. All agreed they were excellent and will be an
important part of the Cemeteries records.
7. The question was raised as to whether the Trust Fund Com-
mittee could invest some or all of the Cemetery Bequest Fund in
something other than CD'S such as Mutual Funds. This will be
answered at a future meeting.
8. The next meeting was scheduled for September 2nd. unless
called earlier. Meeting adjourned 8:45 P.M.
