Board of Selectmen Minutes November 3, 2003 i APPOINTMENTS AND HEARINGS: Town Clerk---House I umberin Multi-Unit Corn lexes: Deborah Dami, Town Clerk was present with George Baler, Fire Chief to discussing addressing within Multi-Unit Complexes. It was noted that this type of complex has grown in population over the years, and it has caused an increased response time for ambulance and fire suppression services due to illogical building identification systems. The Town Clerk working with the Police, Fire, Town Planner and Post Office is presently developing a basic procedure to identify buildings within the multi-unit complexes. The Planning board will hold public hearings to accept the names of the streets within. After the names are accepted by the Planning Board, the Town Clerk would work in conjunction with the Office of the Assessor, and forward the change to the utility companies and Post Office. All homeowners would receive a certified copy of the change via certified mail. The Director of Public works related concern with respect to naming driveways that would take on the appearance of being a Town road. There needs to be a distinction between a road berg private and a driveway within a multi-unit complex. It was suggested that each complex would sign-off acknowledging that these are driveways and not Town roads. The Selectmen were in support of the project proposal as outlined.

Lotion made by Selectman Masters to approve the Request for Proposals as referenced. Motion seconded by Selectman Cahalane. VOTE: Unanimous. 5-0.
