They may need to do some work for October town meeting if we don't get the SRF funding. Brochures; they need 2,000. Moveable display: Tom would life 2. Dr. Howes suggesting urge posters of scanned copies of the display information. S&W and the Commission discussed the payment schedule. SRF funding: from S&W"s experience you sign an agreement and DEP extends line of credit for the total amount, they have tried to streamline the paperwork. When the town gets invoices from S&W,they complete a vouchers which gets sent to DEP, they pay the town and then the town pays the contractors. Tom said the town must rely on S&W to do the SRF work but that is not in the contract. S&W said it is clearly in their best interest to get that money. S&W discussed the women and minority business requirements with Dr. Howes and the Commission. Tom mentioned to Dr. Howes that DEP is looking for a strong sales pitch on the existing problem and we will need a report from him. The problem needs to be well documented.
