Paul Cushing presented the Commission with a contract and floor plans.

does not come into play. Paul will also check into $5 million
liability. The Town Coucil has one week to review the plans.
There was a discussion of the Pine View Cemetery sign to include
"Crematorium" . Mr. Cushing will advise Rodney of the original
supplier of the cast bronze letters.
The pickup truck needs replacement as well as Rodney's car. A Waste
Water Department truck is going to auction. It is a GM diesel with
approximately 90, 000 miles with a plow.
The Sheriff's Department quickly apprehended the person who stole Mrs.
Wilsey's purse from her car while she was visiting her granddaughter' s
grave.

Sylvia. Betty or Ted will request a new resolution to keep Sylvia on
the Board temporarily.
Two people will be hired for seven weeks this summer at the rate of
$8.50 per hour.
