Appropriation Voted, to ask for the same appropriation in 1947 as in 1946, namely $250. School Sites Committee It was decided to advise Mr. Roland Greeley that the Planning Board believed the school sites problem was in capable hands, that we had no suggestions to make but that we would be glad to cooperate if requested. Parking Project The following thoughts were evolved in the discussion of the Parking Project. ' Thus far the project has been discussed primarily as a parking project with other related matters such as streets, re -zoning, etc. as incidental. Being considered this way all the expense of new streets and other changes are viewed as contributing the cost of the parking area. If none of the changes have any value except the parking area then the latter will be very expensive. However, the parking area is simply one part of a much larger program and it would be neither fair nor realistic to charge all costs to parking itself. The designation "parking project" und►aly emphasizes only one part of a larger plan. It was decided that the Planning Board would attempt to prepare a general outline of a layout with a plan of suggested procedure which it favors for presentation to the Selectmen. If this meets with favor the Board is willing to proceed with more detailed study. lies 0tfully u tted� Cl erk n
