I <br /> IL <br /> i <br /> CF <br /> Board of Selectmen r <br /> Regular Meeting <br /> Wednesday, November 19, 1986 <br /> spoken with Chuck Liberty on this issue and "he expressed interest <br /> if it were possible to put the kindergarten in the library, it would <br /> free areas in the present school building. Tl at would allow the <br /> accommodation of their needs at least for the next year, probably <br /> two, until, the new school will be on the line". There is the question <br /> as to whether or notthis would satisfy the State 's requirements , <br /> Also what would it cost, etc .? Iver. Lawrence suggested that perhaps <br /> any purchased portable classrooms could be incorporated into the new <br /> school building. The School Committee and the Administrator will be <br /> instructed to look into the feasibility of this idea and report back <br /> to the Board. <br /> Members of the Historical Commission were present and <br /> stated that it was authorized at Town Meeting to use the existing library <br /> as an archives building. They also stated that the heating system at <br /> the library is inadequate for the children. Also. . .tha.t the corner <br /> intersection location of the library would be unsafe. Mrs Hanson <br /> stated that the Board understands their position; however, "The <br /> education of the children has to be a priorityff 0 <br /> r. Murphy was instructed to reply to the School o .mitte <br /> and the Administrator and Principal asking for "more solid numbers". <br /> Perhaps the State would just refuse the idea. The Board wants "solid <br /> ideas' <br /> HEARINGS AND APPOINTMENTS ( cont. ) <br /> 3 . Representative of State Department of Public Works re <br /> road salt nor snow and ice control. The -orsen` atz stated that the <br /> State DPW will reduce to a. 4-1 ratio the amount of salt used to control <br /> the amount of sodium chloride that gets into the ground water and town <br /> and private wells .

He especial.? <br /> asked that Police Chiefs be alert to more hazardous driving situations <br /> and the increased d.if'f�,culties that the driving and pedestrian public <br /> will have in coping. <br /> Mr. Vow=g i l i o said that he will expect to continue to use a. <br /> 3-1 ratio as was done l st year. He felt that it was a ratio that <br /> drivers could feel relatively comfortable with. This ratio will be in <br /> effect on Town-maintained roads .
