t • <br /> that they did not errant to spend that much money, They recommended <br /> that they just mow and do the best that they could. Each year they kind of <br /> did more and more. They were able to stretch the limit a little bit with the <br /> machinery without sacrificing the membrane. Obviously they didn't want <br /> to be upon the slopes with any kind of machinery that would tilt or the <br /> machines that they have that would stretch the membrane, He felt that <br /> they had done it fairly well over the years. To do it any more, as far as the <br /> DPW doing something, he wasn't familiar with that situation. They would <br /> have to get Mr. Taylor or Ms. Laurent to speak to that situationO <br /> Mr. Santos stated that this had been brought to the board's attention <br /> because there was a memo that went from the DPW to the selectmen and <br /> back to the BOH* It stated that it had not been done properly. <br /> Mr. Esper asked if the DPW had stated that. <br /> Mr. Santos re-iterated that it had not been clone properly and that they had <br /> to go back out and mow it themselves. <br /> Mr. Esper interjected that that could be because they might not have been <br /> kept in the loop with the agreement between the BOH and Coastal Waste <br /> Management. They said that they couldn't do the hands on labor-intensive <br /> work of cutting. I Is. Laurent wasn't around when all of this was talked <br /> about. They were more than willing to be flexible, But, they would have to <br /> go send man-hours out to do that stretch by hand. That was not feasible <br /> at the current rate. He wouldn't suggest that they do it. The DPW had <br /> been very good in working with them in terms of sanding when they <br /> needed it. They worked pretty well Band in hand with there. They could <br /> bring Ills. Laurent in to sit and talk about this as well as going over to the <br /> site to look at it. But, he didn't foresee a problem unless the board wanted <br /> them to undertake the labor intensive of cutting it by hand. <br /> Mr. Santos felt that that was the crux of the problem. He was on the board <br /> when they first began this contract and he remembered the conversation. <br /> He remembered that the first time it was mowed a lot of stuff was not <br /> clone. There was a misunderstanding because Mr. Espees group curl not <br /> anticipate the amount of handwork that was necessary to complete the <br /> job or the right machinery that was needed to do it. There were mowers <br /> out there that have the arm mowers that could reach down and mow the <br /> real steep stuff. There was machinery that could mow just about anything. <br /> Mr. Esper agreed with Mr. Santos. He felt that some of those folds over <br /> there are not even accessible by a side mower. <br /> Mr. Santos didn't disagree with Mr. Esper. However, they had submitted a <br /> 3 <br />
