Both amendments will be put to further study by the planners.

In its present condition, Treasurer Brad Fisher told the council, it won’t pass the fire code. Mr. Fisher said the town’s insurance will also be expanded to include liability coveragefw town events and disability coverage for town employees.
• Reached no decision on a request by Julie Portman, representing the Golden Key Performance Group and Trapezoid, to use the Town Hall for rehearsals in return for labor to clean and fix up the structure. “I can’t vote for it when we haven’t decided how' we’re going to use it,” Councilman Peter Skowronski said. The rest of the council concurred.

Several residents raised vociferous objections to the proposal, including Jim Thomasson, the ARB’s secretary. “I don’t know where it came from . . . (but) it’s absurd. Picayune comes to mind,” he said of the proposal.
