Carroll Board of Selectmen
Meeting Minutes
July 21, 2008
"These minutes of the Town of Carroll Select Board have been recorded by its Secretary. Though believed to be accurate and correct they are subject to additions, deletions and corrections by the Select Board at its next meeting when the Board votes its final approval of the minutes. They are being made available at this time to conform to the requirements of New Hampshire RSA 91-A:2."
Minutes recorded by Maryclare Quigley, Secretary
Board members present: Bonnie Moroney, Christopher Hancock
The meeting was called to order at 7:05 PM.
Members of the public present: Roberta McGee, Ann Fabrizio, Carmine Fabrizio, Evan Karpf, Bill Dowling, Mike Gooden, Jeff Duncan, John Trammell, Monica Scales, John Scales, Leo Scales
Pledge of Allegiance
The board announced the approval of bills and signing of checks.
Chairman Moroney made a Motion to: accept the minutes of July 14, 2008, as corrected (details were shown for the forms for the State of NH Water Grant and the Hoyle, Tanner Contract Amendment Form, whereas originally they had not been). Selectman Hancock seconded, and the Motion passed unanimously.
Stan Borkowski�s report has been received and posted.
Town Treasurer, Susan K. Kraabel, came to talk about transferring funds in the ambulance and the recycling accounts to the Public Deposit Investment Pool (PDIP), a state run fund for municipalities. This had been discussed at prior meetings for the purpose of getting a better interest rate which Mrs. Kraabel has found would be 2.2 compared to .75 which they are getting now. Discussion ensued regarding moving the funds that would not entail penalties as well as the amounts to be moved, as both Jeff Duncan, Fire Chief, and Bill Dowling, Transfer Station Manager, will be needing the use of some of their funds in the next few months. After further discussion on amounts, Mrs. Kraabel recommended moving $100,000 for the ambulance and $62,000 for recycling. Mr. Dowling requested that $14,000 remain in the current account, so Mrs. Kraabel will recalculate the amount to move as the recommended amount would have left only $10,000. Chairman Moroney made a Motion to: move money for these two accounts in PDIP. Selectman Hancock seconded and the Motion passed unanimously.
Next was the Old Roxmere Road right of way issue. Chairman Moroney read the inspection report from Stan Borkowski, Building Inspector and Code Enforcement Officer for the Town, and a letter from abutters, G. Ernest Temple and his son (both attached). Following this, Chairman Moroney made a Motion to: send the information to Town Counsel for his opinion. Selectman Hancock seconded and it passed unanimously.
Monica and Leo Scales had come to the Town about this issue and Mrs. Scales asked what question the Town would be asking of their Counsel. Chairman Moroney responded that this is no longer a town road, but as the Board respects what the people have to say, they want to listen. However, they also feel they should get professional advice as this may be considered a private issue. Mr. and Mrs. Scales contend it is a town issue as it has to do with setbacks and they believe the trees are planted within the right-of-way and defy regulations regarding setbacks. Discussion took place and Mr. Scales said maintaining it is not so much the issue as the difficulty of getting through with a vehicle because of the size of the trees, which becomes even worse in the winter when they are bowed down after a heavy snowfall. Chairman Moroney noted that Evan Karpf was in attendance, and as he is on the Planning Board, she asked if he would give an opinion. Dr. Karpf offered to come to the office during the week to look over the file as he did not have all the information at this time. Chairman Moroney asked Dr. Karpf if he would report his findings to the Selectmen�s Office.
The following items were approved and signed:
Letter of Engagement -- Carew & Company, LLC
(The letter outlined the audit that they would perform for the Town, when they would start
and when it would be complete, payment schedule, etc.)
Certificate of Occupancy � Marquis
Police Commendations -- Sergeant Smalley, Detective Brown, and Patrolman Bailey for
Volunteerism, education, promotions and devotion to duty
There has not been anything further on the Daly property, so this issue will be checked on.
Bill Dowling reported that he had been to a single stream meeting, meaning that all recyclables are in one truck. Due to increased trucking and tipping fees, plus the loss of revenue for those which he sells: cardboard, paper, aluminum cans, tin, to name a few, it is definitely not to the Town�s advantage, so he will not participate.
The updated trail crossing agreement for the waterline should be received within a few weeks. Bob Spuerl explained their office has been extremely busy and apologized for the delay.
Jeff Duncan gave an update on the fire station. He said the final invoice for the renovations had been submitted and requested approval for moving money around in the budget for furnishings and carpet. He advised the roof needs to be done but they have the money for that. He also advised that he�ll need a discussion regarding the septic. The design is in the works and state approval has been received, but the total cost hasn�t been received yet. As there is enough land at the station, they will not have to try to acquire more which had been previously thought. Chairman Moroney made a Motion to: Allow Chief Duncan to move money around to finish furnishing the station. Selectman Hancock seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
Chairman Moroney asked Chief Duncan to contact the Board to discuss money when the engineer gets back to him regarding the total amount of the septic project.
Roberta McGee advised the Board that Jo Cabral had been in a car accident and asked as she is a Supervisor of the Checklist, if they planned to send flowers to her. Chairman Moroney said this was the first she had heard of it and made a Motion to: Send flowers this week and Selectman Hancock seconded. The Motion passed unanimously.
As there was no further business, Chairman Moroney declared the meeting ended at
7:57 p.m. and moved to go into Executive Session for personnel matters. The Board was polled and went into executive session.
At the close of executive session, Chairman Moroney made a Motion to: return to public session and seal the minutes from executive session. Selectman Hancock seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
There being no further discussion, Chairman Moroney made a Motion to: adjourn the meeting. Selectman Hancock seconded and the Motion passed unanimously. Chairman Moroney declared the meeting ended at 9:05 p.m.
