Mr. Caputo stated that the basic contract was the standard American Institute
of Architects (AIA) format with the scope of service attachment. He indicated
that he had reviewed the proposal with Mr. Gwynn and recommended it's approval
to the Commission.
Mr. James Stergas, representing GBS Architects, responded to specific questions
regarding timing, schedules, and the scope of services. He also stated that any
additional services as set forth in Section9..3 of the contract would only take
place at the Town's request.
After further discussion and upon a motion by Mr. Pfeifler and second by Mr.
Armour, the Commission unanimously approved the contract with GBS Architects,
and proceeded with contract signing.
Mr. Stergas then presented a tentative project schedule with an anticipated Town
1h11 gCound breaking date for December 15, 1984. He stated, however, that he would
present a more formal schedule to the Commission at it's regular meeting on
July 13, 1984.
3. Dredging Contract Discussion.
Mr. Caputo stated that he had met with Mike Walther from Strock Engineers and
that all contract modifications which had been requested by the Town had been
incorporated in the final contract which was submitted for today's meeting.
Mr. Walther discussed the roadway access to the FIND property spoil site,
protection of underground pipes, and construction cross - section profiles.
After further discussion and upon a motion by Mr. Armour and a second by Mr.
Hunter, the Commission unanimously approved the dredging contract with Murphy
Construction and proceeded with contract signing.

Mr. Walther stated that this action would acknowledge the Town's notice to
proceed and he would so indicate to the contractor in writing.
4. Preliminary Budget Review.
Mr. Gwynn presented the preliminary proposal and stated that it is still $16,000
over in expense above revenues.
There was considerable discussion on such items as salary increases, a Code
Enforcement Officer, Assistant Town Manager, payment of medical insurance depend-
ent coverage, and new equipment.
It was decided that, in order to adopt a balanced budget, the following amend-
ments to the proposal were necessary:
1. Provide for a 7% salary increase for all employees, but not provide for
dependant coverage to be paid by the Town; and
2. Retain the services of a part -time Code Enforcement Officer, but at a
reduced salary of $6,000; and
3. Reduce the water system repair fund from $25,000 to $20,000.
Action on these items provided for a balanced budget proposal. Therefore, based
\_ on a motion by Mr. Pfeifler and a second by Mr. Hunter, the Commission approved
the amended budget proposal on a 4 to 1 vote with Mr. Dixson dissenting due to the
Commission's opposition to payment of medical insurance dependant coverage.
Mayor Koch then set Thursday, September 6, 1984 at 5:01 P.M. as the first public
hearing for budget review.
5. Adjournment.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 6:30 P.M.
