6) Robert Kokko, manager of the Eastview Condo Association, and members of that Board, attended the meeting to discuss the numbering of the units.  They informed the Board that they want the units to be numbered 1 through 45 and not have the buildings individually identified.  The Board feels that the unit building should be identified and then the individual units, such as building 44, unit 1.  After a discussion, it was agreed that Police Chief Hautanen, Selectman MacFarland, Fire Chief Dick and someone from the ambulance would meet and go to the condos and try to see what would work best for emergency vehicles. They will report back to the Board.

8) The regular meeting was called to order at 9:15.

10) Selectman Draper informed the Board that Jerri Nelson of the Wilton/Lyndeborough School had called and informed him that they are running in a deficit because of special education costs that were not budgeted for.  She asked if the school should borrow the money or if it should be the town. After a discussion, the Board agreed to ask Town Treasurer, Barry Greene’s opinion as to who should be the one to borrow the money.
