Bob Valentine noted all departments have been notified that all vouchers and invoices for last fiscal year must be submitted by Friday, July 30, 2010. Any vouchers/invoices submitted after this date will go against current fiscal years budget.
The roadway between Canterbury Court to Bentley Circle is closed to all vehicle, foot and bicycle traffic until further notice for road repair.
The cracksealing process on East Street North from Goshen to Norfolk has been completed. Minimal patching and paving is needed in Norfolk before the micro surfacing process for both towns can move forward. It is anticipated to start the second week on August.
Bob Valentine noted the schools water tank is being put into position and he is very disappointed with the engineering and layout.
Bob Valentine noted over the years the public works department has provided sand/salt to local contractors during the inclement weather. After reviewing outstanding balances, and finding two contractors, Mr. Jason Watley and Mr. Corey Bebault late in paying their salt/sand invoices from previous years, the public works department may revisit providing this service in the future. The Board of Selectmen will send a letter to the two contractors requesting payment and noting further purchases will be COD.
