Public Comments
The first resident to speak was Mary Schmalz. She asked for clarification on Resolution
2010-98. Supervisor Colsey explained the Resolution for the resident. Ms. Schmalz then asked
about a bill to be paid for Sir Speedy in the amount of $3377.97. In her opinion, the Board has
taken the recreation guide and changed the name to a Town calendar of events. She noted that
other towns make money on their guides. She feels that this expense is extreme. Al Roberts,
Town Attorney, explained that it is his understanding that it is improper for a Town to solicit
funds or donations for government purposes.
Next resident to speak was Joseph Dauzat. He asked for clarification on Resolution
2010-105. He asked if this resolution was for additional expenses. Councilman Beale explained
that this Resolution is for reimbursement for transportation and meals. Supervisor Colsey noted
that there was a flat $5000 budgeted for the conference. He believes that this Resolution would
not put the total cost above $5000.
Mary Schmalz spoke again. She cited certain Recreation bills to be paid. She wanted to
know where the contracts for these bills are so that she could view them. Mr. Roberts explained
that he sent them off to Ralph Holt for review and comment before being submitted to the Board.
