He explained that. s ince hold- <br /> ing a Public Hearing is not required by law, the telephone company will <br /> not pay for the Public Notice. He stated that all that is required b <br /> ' <br /> law is for the abutters to be notified. Sel . Thomas asked then if the <br /> Telephone Company• paid for the os tage. He aoknoleded they did not. <br /> However, he suggested a filing fee could be charged by the Town to <br /> cover that expense. Mr. Murphy explained that the Town is moving in that <br /> direction, and at the Anual Town Meeting will be asking for a vote to <br /> authorize the 'down Clerk to assess such a fee. <br /> Sel . Thomas raised the question that .if someone has a .light put on a <br /> pole at their private expense, who owns that Light? Mr. Livingston sug- <br /> gested making ,that inquiry of the light company, since the pole would <br /> probably belong to thea, he feels the fixture would, tee, and the person <br /> would only be renting the light. Sel. Thomas wondered if a Hearing should <br /> be held in such a case, to allow abutters to express this disapproval if <br /> they didn't want the light for any reason. Mr. Murphy will contact Town <br /> Counsel on this matter. <br /> I <br /> Hearing closed -at 2:19, <br /> NEW BUSINESS (continued) <br /> i A copy of a letter has been received in the Selectmen' s <br /> s <br /> office which.
