The meeting was called to order at 9:35am by the Chairman Margaret Case. Members also present were Leo Hart, David Unger, J Gross, Mary Griffin and Alan Shoemaker. Steve Dirksen was not present. Christopher Doyle was excused. Lisa Evarts, Consultant and Barbara Coish, Recording Secretary were also present.

The November minutes were accepted as written with the following amendment. The makeup of the Technical Committee under the leadership of Leo Hart is David Unger, J Gross, Lisa Evarts and Tom Case. A new coordinator when hired would also be a member of the committee. Any member or volunteer may attend the meetings of this committee. Leo Hart, moved; J Gross, second. Unaniminous. 

The bulletin board was down and it was necessary to purchase a new power supply. Total cost of the power supply $ 152.00. Tom Case has the bulletin board running again.

The IT Director had representatives from Elcom checking out the studio phone system.  I appears that it is very difficult and expensive ( $ 3076.) to change the studio phone system over the what the rest of the Town is presently using. Cable was presented with an invoice for this report and survey which amounted to $ 499.88. The Chairman representing the Board objected to this amount of money for the work which was done. 

The financial statement for November shows that the budget had $ 22935.08 remaining. Any monies remaining at years end is returned to the Town budget. Having no paid coordinator for much of the year accounts for much of this amount remaining.

The Chairman reported on the Trust Funds.
