The Open Cape representative cancelled his appointment with the Board this evening, but will attend the May meeting. We have requested reimbursement from Open Cape for legal expenses incurred for reviewing their fiber optics installation proposal.

The town attorney has set a closing date of 4/23/13 for the 671 Main Street project. Mr. Barnicle made a motion that, if
the closing does not take place on 4/23/13, the funds will be returned to the Cotuit Fire District treasurer within 14 days. Mr. Calise seconded the motion and it was so voted.

A brief discussion was held on the proposed security system.A more in-depth discussion will take place at May’s  meeting when the Open Cape  representative will be present to discuss the fiber optics relationship to the security system.

The Board was informed that the interiors of both the Main Street and West Street tanks will be chemically cleaned by Utility Services this Spring. The report that will follow will help the Board with decisions concerning the West Street tank painting project.

The Board reviewed the price estimate from Horsley & Witten for the installation of a new monitoring well near Station #5. The Board requested an additional price estimate from D.A. Scannell Company which also installs monitoring wells.
