Selectmen handle routine permits, fees, personnel updates and administrative items
Summary
The meeting included routine approvals: acceptance of payroll and bills, building permit receipts, recommendation to follow state building codes, time‑card and online payment system research, a sworn-in auditor, and a range of permit and Avitar paperwork issues.
The selectmen covered a broad set of administrative items on July 20. They signed payroll and paid bills, accepted routine receipts (including $332 from Marc Trubiano for building permit #1727 and $60 from Truman Heating for a furnace and ductwork permit), and recorded a Town Clerk receipt for dog forfeiture letters charged to a credit card for $636.89. Steve Goldsmith reported on a July 13 building code seminar and recommended following state building codes, flagging the need for local permitting to align with updated state standards.
Separately, the board discussed researching an electronic time card tracking system, evaluating EB2GOV for municipal payments, awaited two quotes for town‑hall air conditioning, reviewed Avitar submissions (including a missing NE Utility page and an Avitar statement submitted for payment), and noted a variety of permit matters (DE Brothers permit #1729 for a two‑story addition at 49 Village Road with payment due and a missing updated septic plan; Monique Newcombe's Avitar inspection opt-out request; and Welnak reapplying for a building permit). Nancy Callender was sworn in as Auditor and the board will thank Gary Gray for his interest in the position.
