Summary

Facilities official Scott Bushee told the Select Board the Transfer Station garage camera remains nonfunctional (possible wiring problem), proposed using the tire bin for mattresses, and reported no bear sightings so far; he also raised concerns about the Community Center.

Scott Bushee, the town's facilities and transfer station lead, opened the facilities report by distributing his job description to the board and updating members on several operational items. On the Transfer Station camera he said the system "is still not working properly" and that he suspects wiring problems; staff are continuing to troubleshoot. Bushee proposed using the tire bin to collect mattresses and noted community center maintenance issues that need follow up.

Bushee also told the board, "I haven't seen any bears at all so far," reporting there have been no recent bear sightings at the facility. The board asked staff to continue diagnostics on the camera and to bring draft language for a mattress collection plan back to a future meeting.
