Public
Comments: Mr. Bauries indicated that
all comments should be recorded—that he, (as well as others), take their time
to come to these meetings and often times have important things to say—so ALL
of these comments should be recorded. In
line with that, Mr. Bauries also pointed out that his letter, as included in
the minutes of 09-19-07—that references his comments during the meeting on
09-11-07, seems out of place—given that there are no comments attributed to him
in the minutes of 09-11-07. Mr. Bauries
also pointed out that the word “Special” was used to described this
meeting—this meeting, 9-11, was not noticed as a special meeting.
Editorial
Note: With regard to the word “special”. This was not a special meeting, but a
regularly scheduled meeting, the minute taker, TPeloquin,
used this word to describe the meeting—in the correct context, the word means
that this meeting had only KB issues on the agenda.
With regard to unrecorded comments…Mr.
Bauries arrived almost one hour late for the 9-11 meeting. His comments were not made during public
comments and he had not been recognized by the Chair. His comments were not on subject and
therefore not recorded.
Mr. Bauries is correct, all comments are
important and the committee very much appreciates the attendance of the public
and in line with that, it is always the minute takers intention to capture and
record those comments

Business
This
building is already over-crowded; it is not thought that anymore work space can
be added to it at this time.
MC2
Where
could this program be run from if it needed to move—there is no place for it to
go.
Troy Master Plan
Should all schools have a master plan…this will be looked
into.
Facilities Director
This
is still being looked at/worked on by Katie C.
Mt Caesar
It
has been brought to the committee’s attention that this project has run short
of money and that Betty Tatro has already spent $2,000.00 on it. They are now asking for an additional
$2,000.00. This was discussed at length
and is NOT a Facility Committee issue; it will be referred to Finance.
Next
Meetings
October 1, 2007 and
October 15, 2007 at 7.00 pm, these are for KB presentations/discussions.
Public
Comments
Neil Moriarty would like to know—have clarified,
relative to Warrant Articles, does the F/C think that it will submit one
article for MS/HS issues and one for other schools; or just ONE article for
everything. He also thinks that giving
the $2000.00 for the playground is money well spent.
