CEO Report & Chief deferred to action item:

Kelly Samperi came in with a document describing issues receiving help for her child who has a disability and is going to a private school. She has been refused help from the School Union. As there is not much we can do, but truly feel her desperation, we will call MMA Legal Dept. to see if there is anything we can do to assist her.

Return to regular meeting agenda

Fire Chief Report

Chief Carter discussed starting now to make plans for purchase of a new Fire Truck. Putting a truck together is 4 years out. Want to order as soon as they can. If Brooklin, DI/Stonington and Sedgwick do at the same times there is a better deal. They will all work together on this purchase. New truck will be $450,000 or more. Had a greater car show this year. Received donations and had several vendors at the show. Were able to buy new struts and air bag release device for vehicle accidents.
