TOWN OF DUNBARTON

BOARD OF SELECTMEN

MINUTES OF MEETING

 

January 22, 2004

 

 

Present:  Charles Graybill, Chairman

    Stephen Kennedy

 

 

8:00 am

 

Meeting was posted on website and at town office, see attached.

 

The Board worked on the budget.  It was voted to adjust all employees pay to reflect a 3.5% increase.  This would cover Town Administrator, Office Secretarial help, transfer station full time and part time, Highway Dept full time, and Janitor. 

 

It was voted to decrease the police budget slightly. 

 

The motion was made second and passed that no town employee while on duty for the town and responding to fire calls will be credited with time under the point system used by the Dunbarton Fire Department. 

 

A letter received from New Hampshire the Beautiful with an offer of a grant for $3,000 towards the purchase of a new baler was discussed.  It was voted to pass over this offer because the town would have to put up another $9,000 for the purchase of the baler and the Selectmen felt this was not warranted at this time because of budget restraints. A letter will be mailed to NH the Beautiful.

 

Meeting was adjourned at 10 am
