J � <br /> Finance Committee Minutes <br /> February 24, 1988 <br /> Page 3. <br /> Jean and Andy both noted that they are working with the Water District to - <br /> get things going. Carl inquired as to the status of the Transition Agreement.. . <br /> Jean noted that at present Town Counsel is reviewing, however it seems an <br /> agreement is very near and hopefully will be reached prior to Town Meeting. <br /> Andy explained the first item on the budget, the $20,000 for Professional <br /> Services. This would be to get someone who will take on, for a limited time, <br /> the over sight of the system. This would be part time, and the figure of $20,000 <br /> is speculative. <br /> The figure of 0 for Bottled Water to Summerwood will have to be increased <br /> The Highwood Appraisal will be permanetly delayed. The Water Contracts figure <br /> could change. Jean noted that all the figures were speculative and hopefully <br /> she would have more information as Town Meeting got closer. <br /> The Finance Committee proceeded to discuss Articles . Article 441 is for <br /> the acceptance of the Briarwood roadways. Joe Murphy noted that $266,575 will <br /> bring up the quality of the roadways, however, it will not be up to sub-division <br /> standards. Carl noted that he felt that it was a poor precedent to set, the <br /> town taking over roads that were not up to sub-division standards. <br /> Article #42 involves the construction of a town well and the Town <br /> commitment to Falmouth. <br /> Article #43 seeks Town authorization to replace mains in the Otis Trailor <br /> Park. The main will be brought up to the boundary of the trailor park and <br /> they will install their own water system. <br /> Article #44 seeks Town approval to raise and appropriate or appropriate <br /> and transfer $6, 155 to the Briarwood Water Project Account. <br /> Article #45 involves a Town well - it has not been determined if this <br /> Article will appear on the Warrant . <br /> Jean noted that headway has been made with the Department of Defense in <br /> relation to the Briarwood situation, and the negotiations are ongoing. <br /> Hopefully more information will be forthcoming to Finance Committee members <br /> on this budget and the Water Commissioners ' Articles . <br /> The Finance Committee adjourned at 9: 15 p.m. the next scheduled meeting <br /> is February 25, 1988. <br /> Gail McNabb <br /> Board Secretary <br />
