Mayor Trinks called the Public Hearing to order at 7:18 p.m. to discuss "An ordinance appropriating $235,000 for the roof replacement and related work at Windsor High School and the construction of HVAC screening and related work at the high school and authorizing the issue of $235,000 bonds and notes to finance the appropriation."

Mayor Trinks read the legal notice which was published in the Journal Inquirer on August 12, 2002

Mr. Bradshaw Smith, 23 Ludlow Road, addressed the Town Council. This proposed project should be addressed for structural integrity. A cost of $90,000 for rooftop screenings is not necessary. Everyone has seen the a/c units, so why spend that much money for screening?

Mr. Smith compared the football field lights project with this ordinance for meeting the educational needs of the school. He noted that he hasn’t heard any residents in support of this project, but he has heard many in favor of the football field lights.

He quoted the PBC regarding the football field lights. "The Commission discussed the additional funding request to the Town Council. It was agreed that this money would be used to improve the educational process of the school. It was noted that many items were required to meet the code and were not intended in the original project."

The Public Meeting was adjourned at 7:24 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,

Kristin Countryman

Clerk of the Windsor Town Council

Cc: Town Clerk
