        The meeting was called to order at 6:15 p.m.
        
        Townspeople to Address Board:  David Rapaport, Harwood Union Board representative,
        informed the selectboard of Harwood's plan for bonds on a wood chip baler and athletic field
        improvements.
        
        There was a discussion on the Hayden Hill Road bridge.  After the discussion it was decided that
        the landowners as a group will supply milled wood as decking after the town installs the steel
        beams.  The town will supply the labor for that. Richard Avery will be the contact person for the
        landowners (496-4663).
        
        Road Report:  David Quenneville is working on getting the steel for the bridge, and Eric Bauer
        will look at it.
        
        A bill has been sent to Green Mountain Power for the road repair on Mountain View Drive.
        
        Winter sand should be here in two weeks.
        
        The Turner Hill Project has been officially cancelled.
        
        The repair of the bridge on Camel's Hump Road will be going to the taxpayers in March. David
        won a grant for this project, and the town has to match it by 20%.
        
        Todd questioned the phone bill which seems high, but JoAnn referred to a bill to find that the
        base charge is high.  Craig will clarify some phone questions with  Ken.
        
        The state has requested that the town grade the road up at Camel's Hump State Park. David will
        do that.
        
        Fred Collins mentioned an email he had received from Sue Minter regarding an upcoming    
         Rt. 2/Rt. 100 intersection discussion.  The board will send a message through Fred that the board
        is not interested in joining this discussion.
        
        Evaluation of Town Employees:   Paul Brusa requested that David Quenneville submit written
        evaluations of his employees by the October 9 board meeting. This should include their strengths
        and weaknesses as well as a goal for each of them to achieve in the next year.
        
        Town Clerk's Building:  Ken is going to write up an advertisement soliciting volunteers for the
        building committee for approval by  the board. 
        
        New Business:  There was a question about the high cost of the last election.  JoAnn explained
        that the software for the new machine came in at a high price and a new piece of software will be
        required for the next one. Many towns have complained about this.
        
        A request has been made by the Children's Space to use the board meeting room once a month
        for a meeting.  After some discussion about use of the room in general, the board decided to talk
        to Ken about how this could be managed in terms of taking care of the room.  Craig will talk to
        Ken about the cleaning and management of the room, after which the board will come up with a
        policy regarding the use of the room.
        
        Minutes Approval:  JoAnn Berno made a motion to accept the minutes of the special board
        meeting of August 7, 2006, and the regular board meeting of August 14, 2006.  Fred Collins
        seconded the motion, and all were in favor of it.
        
        The meeting was adjourned at 8 p.m.
        
        Respectfully submitted,
