Text Box: Text Box: TOWN COUNCIL NOTES
February 12
	 The Town has signed an agreement with Condon-Reed to update the AC/heating system in the town hall.  Mayor Debbie Beers expressed her pleasure at getting the agreement done.  Councilmember Long noted that the council had tried to do it in an environmentally friendly (or, green) manner but that the facility was just not compatible with this.  Councilmembers anticipate that the back parking lot may need to be shut down for a short time to accommodate the work; the timing of this has yet to be determined
	Mayor Beers reported that a letter was sent to Frank Bell on Jan. 24 asking him to restore the right of way to its previous condition within 30 days of receiving the letter.  No response had been received to date.  If the work is not done, the town will do it and bill Mr. Bell.  There could be a lien against the property if the town were to subsequently get a judgment against Mr. Bell.
	Councilmember Long noted that the area around the flagpole in front of the town hall was only partly planted and that it would be better if the area could be planted more fully, with a stepping stone to stand on for access to the flagpole.  Councilmember Arber agreed to provide the stepping stone.  She also asked if Chapel Valley could be instructed to use environmentally safe products, not Round Up.
	Mayor Beers noted that last year the town did not make a contribution to Glen Echo Park.  The council agreed that the contribution this year would be $1,500 to make up for missing last year (in previous years, the town has contributed $1,000 to the park).  A motion was introduced and passed unanimously to contribute $1,500 to GPPAC for 2007.  The budget for community contributions (before the above contribution to the park) is $2,900, Mayor Beers reported.
	Clerk/treasurer Polak reported that the display case for the town hall entranceway has been sent back to the shop for the hinge to be redone.
