<br />CEC minutes - 7 November 2000 (approved) <br /> <br />The meeting was called to order at 7:34 PM by the chairman. <br /> <br />Four members of the committee were present: Tom Griffths (TG), Shirley <br />Stolz (SS), George Burnell (GB), and Charles Hornig (CH). <br /> <br />Visiting were Deborah Brown (Appropriations Committee) and John Ryan <br />and <br />Connie Rawson of the Finance Department. <br /> <br />The minutes of the meeting of 19 October 2000 were approved. <br /> <br />John Ryan and Connie Rawson presented the department's proposal to <br />replace both the town and school MIS systems with a new combined system <br />for $425,000. Major points discussed were: <br /> <br /> - The town's current system is 10 years old. It meets the needs of <br />the <br />MIS department but not the rest of the staff. As it ages, it is getting <br />more difficult to find support for it. <br /> <br /> - The schools' current system is 25 years old. It does not meet their <br />needs at all any more, and absolutely needs to be replaced. The schools <br />have heavy state-mandated reporting requirements. <br /> <br />The report of the Selectmen's Blue-Ribbon Capital Finance Advisory <br />Committee was distributed for discussion at our next meeting. <br /> <br />We don't yet have dates to meet with Conservation and the library. It <br />looks like it will be in December. <br /> <br />The Senior Center Siting Committee is down to six sites. <br /> <br />We do want to meet with the COA about the proposed Senior Center this <br />fall. <br /> <br />The meeting was adjourned at 9:07 PM. Minutes were taken and submitted <br />by Charles Hornig, clerk. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
