He added that the <br /> Department was seeking a part time individual for enforcement, and <br /> that they have had some discussion with other Towns about the <br /> possibility of sharing one individual for this position. Bourne <br /> was one of the Towns mentioned. Mr. Sherman explained that he did <br /> not feel there would be a problem finding a part time person to <br /> work. He believed that there were many individuals wanting to get <br /> their foot in the door doing environmental work. He also stated <br /> that the Town Accountant gave him the salary figure of $13, 307. <br /> Ms. Greelish asked about the clerk who was hired for part time work <br /> after Hurricane Bob and is now a full time employee. Mx. Sherman <br /> explained that they were in great need of clerical help even before <br /> the hurricane, but the storm made it even clearer that they needed <br /> help. He explained that the Department is finally caught up with <br /> their paperwork, but a person to do the actual enforcement is <br /> needed. <br /> There was a question regarding bog receipts.

Mr. Sherman mentioned that he and Mr. Whritenour <br />
