The Board discussed the meeting schedule over the winter holidays. The Sutton Select Board will not be meeting on December 24, 2018. The Select Board’s regularly scheduled meeting will be conducted on December 31, 2018. Robert DeFelice, Budget Committee Chair and Kearsarge Municipal Budget Committee Member presented to discuss miscellaneous budgetary items. He advised the Board that the Rescue Squad was requesting a capital reserve for safety equipment, specifically to acquire a new EKG using current technology. The reserve would be capped off at $42,000 – The budget committee is proposing not adding funds to the rescue truck capital reserve, because the squad is proposing to just replace the chassis on the rescue truck. The modification of the rescue truck will result in a savings to the town. An annual appropriation of $14,000 will be made to the Rescue Squad Safety Equipment Fund over the next three years. The Town will defer appropriations to the Rescue Truck fund until sufficient funds are available for the EKG (in three years.) Once the EKG is acquired, the $14,000 will once again be added to the rescue truck fund in preparation for the acquisition of a new rescue truck. Mr. DeFelice discussed the MBC meeting being conducted on December 4, 2018. The full KRSD proposed budget will be presented at that time. Superintendent Feneberg and Larry LeBouef, KRSD Finance Director, will be in attendance, as well as many of KRSD department heads. Mr. DeFelice reiterated the importance of attending the deliberative session. OLD BUSINESS: The Board issued a letter to Roger Wells, Planning Board Chairman and Derek Lick, Zoning Board of Adjustment Chair regarding recommended noticing practices. The Board finalized the letter to new property owners and will begin sending it to new property owners beginning with the November Transfers. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 4:30 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Elly Phillips Town Administrator
