Mr. Edmundson, Ms. Tully, Mr. Riley
The Board convened in joint session with the Planning Board to vote on an individual to fill the vacancy on the Planning Board.
Ms. Murphy asked if there was anything new to report on the Old Salt discussion. Mr. Edmundson advised that there had been some discussion with Rod Gaskell but nothing has happened as yet.
The Planning Board also asked if there had been any further discussion of parking issues related to 3 Otis Street. The Planning Board expressed concern over the continued waiver for parking. There was some question whether the licensing of parking to a third party would be a permitted use under Chapter 97. The Selectmen will discuss this at a future meeting.
Mr. Edmundson explained the process for the roll call vote to fill the vacancy on the Planning Board, noting that the candidate receiving a majority of the votes will serve until the next election.
By roll call vote:
Ms. Sneath - Gary Tondorf-Dick
Ms. Murphy - Gary Tondorf -Dick
Mr. Riley - Gary Tondorf-Dick
Mr. Edmundson - Gary Tondorf-Dick
Ms. Tully - Gary Tondorf-Dick
Mr. Healey - Gary Tondorf-Dick

Ms. Murphy commented that this appointment would provide the right kind of mix for the Planning Board because of Mr. Tondorf-Dick's architectural background and experience in matters dealing with historic preservation. Mr. Edmundson noted that he was proud to see such qualified people volunteering for the position.
Meeting adjourned 7:25 pm.
