APPROVAL OF
MINUTES
First Selectwoman Gorski called for a motion of approval
for the minutes of the meeting of February 24, 2014. The motion of approval was moved by Selectman
Donald Shea and seconded by Selectwoman Magda.
The vote was called. The vote
taken was unanimous.
ICE SKATING
VETERANS MEMORIAL PARK
The Selectmen reviewed the information received from H.
D. Segur Insurance regarding ice skating
at Veterans Memorial Park. The insurance
company recommended signs clearly marked skating at your own risk. Attorney McSherry felt to allow skating greatly increased the Town
of Bethany’s liability. The Selectmen discussed
management for this activity if they voted to allow skating next year. The skating area would have to be clearly
marked. Testing of the ice would have to
be done each day and a sign posted stating condition of the ice. The skating would only be allowed during day
light.
TAX REFUNDS
Selectman Donald Shea moved to refund to Cory Bostick the
sum of $232.71 for overpayment of taxes.
The motion was seconded by Selectwoman Magda. The vote taken was unanimous.
OTHER
Selectman Shea and Selectwoman Magda asked about
obtaining working Town Hall email addresses.
First Selectwoman Gorski is checking into this matter with IP
Direct.
ADJOURNMENT
Adjournment was called at 7:50 pm after a motion was
moved by Selectman Shea and seconded by Selectwoman Magda. The vote taken was unanimous.
