Old Business

  1. John Halloran asked if there were any new weeks and we explained that there were new weeds but if we found any we should send the information to Amy Smagula at DHS. See Muriel’s Agenda from last week that has notes regarding Muriel’s meeting with Little Island Pond representatives and their issues with weeds.
  2. Rich St. Hilaire will notify the company to empty the Porta Potty. The Selectmen were surprised to hear the Porta Potty was not getting cleaned.

New Business

  • Update on website/lake host - Betty Wright - Here is the link to our new website. Thanks to Betty for all the hard work to get this set up.
