61-411 Selectmen's Meeting - September 27, 1999 Mrs. Krieger inquired about the length of the project. At 400 to 600 linear feet per day, it will take approximately a couple of months to complete the 25,000 linear foot project. Mrs. McKenna inquired about insurance coverage and bonding. They do have extensive coverage for every job. Lexington will be an additional insured on the policy and the Engineering Division will review appropriate bonding requirements for the project. There were other questions about the route, manholes along the route for maintenance access, stubs being part of the plan, coordinating plans with other cabling being done, and provision of maintenance fees once the system is in. Both the Engineering Department and Metromedia request the Board to continue the hearing to October 18 to give them time to resolve one issue. Upon motion duly made and seconded, it was voted to continue the hearing until Monday, October 18 at 7:30 p.m. Proposed FY2001 Budget Schedule Mr. Enrich indicated that since representation from both the School Committee, Board of Selectmen and Finance Committees have been meeting regularly on the FY2001 budget process the Board should be approaching the Town manager's budget as part of that collaborative effort. The Town Manager's budget should be the capstone of the process. Therefore it is recommended that the Town Manager's budget be submitted at the end of February 2000. Mr. Hornig indicated that what makes that date acceptable to the finance committees is that the budget will be adopted by the end of February. Upon motion duly made and seconded, it was voted to set February 28, 2000 as the date for the issuance of the Town Manager's budget for FY 2001. Appointment to the Council on Aging Upon motion duly made and seconded, it was voted to approve the Town Manager's appointment of Leo P. McSweeney to the Council on Aging.
