	The discussion began regarding an invoice for life insurance which Louie Peyron obtained to fill the gap between our present policy and no policy at age 70.  George felt that the policy Louis had received is a full insurance policy that would cover him at all times not just in a fire-related incident.  Therefore, he suggested that the Town pay one half of the premium for this year only and to look for insurance coverage that might cover volunteers over 70.  George made the motion.  Cris seconded it.  The vote was unanimous.

	The Selectmen decided to send a letter to Mark Baldridge regarding the drainage problem, suggesting that he file a Request for Determination with the Conservation Commission.

	A decision was made by the Selectmen to not consider a cap on building permits.  Michael Blay will be asked to meet with the Selectmen when Deb returns on March 7 to discuss the Residential Exemption. 

	Nadine Kennedy,  union rep, Peter Barenski, Michael Buffoni, Mark Viola, Tony Campetti, Bob Kay, Gil McCormick and Clint Schneyer joined the meeting.

Present: Deb McMenamy, Cris Irsfeld, George Shippey, Keith Raftery, Charles Murray     Jean Rousseau, John Morse, Lisa Breault and Jorja Marsden.

	Lisa Breault from Lee Ambulance Squad reviewed their budget.  Lisa explained it is difficult to put numbers together as she had nothing to compare.  This is a transition year as far as the budget goes.  The Volunteers are down, so they will have to have paid people.  Ambulance is asking for $9000. this year, up $2000. from last year.  Lisa stated that if they billed per call it would be around $12,000.  The Finance Board and Selectmen 
approved the $9000.

	The Finance Board stated they were not happy with Tri-Town’s budget and is willing to stand up at Town Meeting to say so.

	The Plain School’s utilities were discussed.  It was felt that we would have to budget for the electricity and heat as we may not know what will be happening with the building by the Town Meeting.  The Finance Committee also stated that they thought another $100,000 should be added as a special article for litigation.
