BUDGET / WARRANT ARTICLES

Diane provided the Board with the Warrant Articles as they stand at this time for their approval. The Board will verify the Articles as written for the next meeting on June 1,2020. We will then set a Public Hearing on the Budget.

Consensus of the Board was to postpone the Referendum Question dealing with a low interest loan for Road Improvement. In dealing with the Covid pandemic, the road numbers are not available, and we have not been able to have the required public meetings for the residents input.

Levant’s Fire Chief and Assistant Fire Chief were present to give the Board an update on the deficiencies on both the equipment and building.

The two most important deficiencies were the maintance and inspections

of the truck, and the leak in the roof around the furnace area.
