Ephraim Weiss moved that line item No. 44 - Personal Services be changed by increasing the figure stated in the motion by $40,000. 9:11 P.M. Mr. Weiss explained that this amendment is due to the adoption of the Accessory Apartments By -Law adopted at the April 6, 1983 session of this town meeting. This increase, which would represent two or three people, would assist the Building Commissioner in his enforcement of the by -law. Mr. Weiss claims that the Building Commissioner is understaffed and cannot enforce the current Zoning By -Laws now. 9:15 P.M. Selectman James F. Crain stated that the Town Manager feels that as this is a new by -law and that the town has no experience with it that there should no increase in the budget until next year. At that time, after the year's experience, it could be better judged what the dollar amount should be. 9:18 P.M. William J. Dailey, Jr. stated that the Appropriation Committee recommended against this amendment and added that there is no place in the budget for the increase of the $40,000. 9:18 P.M.
