With the Wampanoag <br /> language immersion school moving to tribal grounds it is important to collaboratively work on <br /> education with the Tribe. Establishing a liaison is the School Committee's effort to designate a <br /> formal path of communication that allows the school to be proactive. <br /> The Board of Selectmen was in support of the School Committee's outreach as referenced. <br /> Catherine Laurent, DPW Director: <br /> Review and approval of Request to Deficit Spend Snow & Ice: <br /> Catherine Laurent, Director of Public Works was before the Board to request approval to deficit <br /> spend the Snow and Ice Account for fiscal year 2017. Although there have only been two winter <br /> snow storms to date, snow and ice operations have involved the use of sand and salt for ice <br /> conditions. A vast majority of the $116,570 budget has been expended to purchase and restock <br /> road salt. <br /> Additional expenses have resulted in DPW overtime (5%), equipment repair (5%) and <br /> contractual support (15%). <br /> Motion made by Selectman Cahalane to authorize the DPW to deficit spend the Snow and <br /> Ice Account for the remainder of fiscal year 2017. <br /> Motion seconded by Selectman O'Hara. <br /> VOTE: Unanimous. 5-0. <br /> Roll Call Vote: <br /> Selectman Gottlieb, yes Selectman Cahalane, yes Selectman O'Hara, yes <br /> Selectman Cotton, yes Selectman Sherman, yes Opposed, none <br />
