Denise Sullivan asked <br /> whether the figure that Ms. Greelish had of 1.6 million and the <br /> requested figure of 2.1 million, isn't there some happy medium? <br /> Mr. Dinizio responded that it is the Selectmen's job to create the <br /> exact amount requested to the town. Mr. Baker asked whether the <br /> article is set up so that the town will have temporary bonding <br /> until there is an exact figure?
