     Cathy stated that she has Vic Putman working on a grant for upgrade and repair of the boat launch cement piers. Roger explained the background, and complete package for the grant.

in timely.

carried.

 

     Clara moved a resolution to come out of Executive Session, seconded by Sharon; carried.

 

     The Board made a decision that the Farmers’ Market would remain in the Town parking lot, as there

 

will be less traffic jam.

 

    Cathy stated that the Marathon wants poles on Main Street for the banner.  She will bring more

 

information as she received it.

 

     The Board needs to decide if we want to put power to the ski tow.  The matter was tabled for more
