Rosemary Burns Love, and Joan Tavares -Avant telephoned in. Brian <br />Weeden was not present. <br />Commissioner Reports <br />Richard gave us an update on the War Memorial Monument. Work is proceeding, and <br />he is hopeful that he will receive some sketches from Catherine soon. Date to be <br />installed is not certain; will be dependent on weather. Names will have to be engraved. <br />Richard informed us that they have planned extra spacing for any names of veterans <br />who may have been inadvertently omitted, in spite of several attempts to publish the list <br />of names to be engraved. <br />Lakewood Cemetery <br />Catherine has had the cemetery surveyed, and all the trees have been removed. The <br />new fencing will fence in approximately the same area as before except she has added <br />footage near to headstones locations where she will extend the fencing. She may <br />install a simple wood fence to mark off the surveyed area. <br />Schoolhouse <br />The schoolhouse is mostly closed for the season except for a few tours that Richard will <br />be doing up until early November. After that time, he will remove some of the items on <br />display which will be stored in our basement for the winter, and the schoolhouse will be <br />boarded up until spring of 2023. <br />Richard informed us that the project to build the woodshed is on hold. Although <br />Catherine has installed a foundation for it, she has encountered supply issues, and <br />cannot get the cedar shingles, so the project will have to wait until Spring. <br />
