Bethlehem Board of Selectmen
Meeting Minutes
Bethlehem Selectmen Office
March 31, 2014
Present: Chairperson Laleme, Selectman Blanchard, Selectman Culver, Selectman Glavac, Selectman Fiorentino
Chairperson Laleme opened the meeting at 6:00pm.
The pool committee came before the Board to discuss lifeguard chairs. The committee members explained that Profile High School students will be building the chairs but they need to buy the supplies for the chairs. It would cost approximately $300.00 for both of the chairs. Chairperson Laleme suggested taking the money out the operating budget from maintenance or supplies. Rhienna Miscio said the chairs have to be able to be moved so the lifeguard can move it if they cannot see the bottom of the pool due to glare. It was decided to take the money out of the operating budget. There was discussion about the process to access the money in the escrow account. The committee was told the same way they were doing it before, they could bring in the receipts and/or bills and the Board would sign off on them and the bills would get
paid out of the escrow money.
