accounts. 
 
6)  Town Manager Updates/New Business
 
•  DPW Facility Update Project had first meeting yesterday; state law requires hiring a 
designer and then contractor; RFP for designer underway; procurement laws made 
project slow to start; most work should be done next spring. 
•  DPW did not spend $15K from FY2010 budget because they were instructed not to 
spend due to overages in snow and ice line item. 
•  Small town hall project – Town Manager to meet with architect. 
•  Town clock has been repaired by Clock Fund. 
•  Municipal Relief Act has an Early Retirement incentive; caps replacement cost as a 
percentage in years 1, 2 and 3. 
•  Municipal Electrical Aggregation – Colonial Electric brings groups together that want 
to purchase as an aggregate; this would allow residents to potentially do the same 
rather than purchase from UNITIL; feasibility study completed and results will be 
presented to the Board next week; BL requested follow-up on earlier discussions on 
UNITIL assisting with few tasks at the school; Vegetation Management Program is said 
to be at 70% of their 5 to 7 year plan; program work currently on hold until approval by 
DPU. 
•  Final FY2010 transfer reviewed – MM made motion to approve, MS seconded, all 
approved. 
•  Water line repairs completed on Reservoir Road but road has not been repaired; 
Town Manager will follow-up with Water District. 
•  Discussion on Lunenburg resident who is a retired teacher who works with communities 
to find ways to save money and is paid on a percentage of savings. 
 
7)  Adjournment 
 – ME made motion to adjourn at 8:41 PM and MS seconded.
