-2- - the fire station at the Town Meeting. Mr. Nickerson said that it was not a function of his Committee, and he believed such recommendations should be made by the Selectmen or the Board of Fire Engineers. - Yr. Nickerson left this meeting at 8,05 P.7. Mr. Finery, representing the Board of Fire Engineers, remained at this meeting. 7r. Emery said that there seemed to be some question with regards to the amount requested for Privates in the Budget. He stated that his Board had submitted the new salary schedule to the Board of Selectmen which he understood had been approved. The old rates were ";4. 50 the first year, 55.00 for the second year, and 15.50 for the third year, and ' 6.00 for the fourth year. Pis Board feels that two years is long enough for a Private to reach the maximum, so the new salary schedule submitted is 15.50 for the first year, 16.25 for the second, and : 7.00 for the beginning of the third year. Also the differential between the Officers and the Privates is to be increased. Mr. Emery stated. the, entire Fire Department Personal Services Budget, except the amount for the Privates, was correct. The amount requested for Privates would amount to 122,997.25 which would. make a net difference in the Budget as approved of 1698.78. Mr. uoyt suggested that Mr. Emery see the Board of Selectmen and find out whether they understood this change, and if they approved the Budget as revised to notify this Committee tonight. The following Budgets were reconsidered: Selectmen' s T)epartment - Personal Services - Total Approved 13,529.04. This Budget was approved on January 26, 1945 for 13,489.87. A motion was made, seconded and voted to rescind the 7evi.ous vote and reconsider this Budget. The salary of the Assistant Clerk was changed from X1,316.08 to x;1,355.25. This gives her an increase of 12.00 per week instead of =01.00. The revised Budget is `'A3,529.04. A motion was made, seconded and voted to approve this Budget in the amount of 13,529.04.
