Okay. Oh, you do. All right. So, we have previous meeting minutes. Well, Wow. Um, not yet. Sorry. Okay, the two right motion to approve subs of April
14th and April 28th as second. Any discussion? All in favor? I I Right. Audience participation, public comment. Right. See none. We're going to
go on to Highway. I don't see Highway. He's not here. He said he was going to try to make it. I think he's addressing an issue over on the Otis line. Oh, okay. Um, but he did ask that I represent to you the volunteer position for highway
liazison as described. Um, I believe Mr. Aley is here. Hi, Mr. Aley. Do you want to come on down? Mr. Aley, I haven't called you that in a while. Um, so last time we talked to Ray, he
had said he was he didn't think that he needed to have a liaison. So I'm assuming he's changing his mind if he asked you to put it on the agenda. I I'm assuming there was some sort of miscommunication somewhere because last
we met with Ray, we were I think all under the impression that for now he was okay. He said, "Okay, not a problem." Um, and I think I even ran into you and you said, "Well, thanks for trying." And shook hands. And then I've seen Ray since then and he was he's asking me, "When is it going to start?" So I said,
"Well, Ray, I thought we you know, you had said didn't want it." In any event, clearly just a miscommunication. They have the written um description of the hallway liaison in front of them there. Have you seen the description? Ray has a
copy. He didn't give you I'm sorry. I thought Ray wouldn't give you a copy. Look at You're welcome. Um, so read it over. Let us know what you think. think I can make it work. Okay. Um, any
questions on that or concerns? Not really. Okay. I've never never been one before, but if something comes up, I sure I'm sure we can work it out. I'm sure you're more than qualified.
Yeah. Better help there, too. Okay. Um, so do we need to officially adopt the position and then appoint make a motion to adopt the volunteer position? So, I'm not making I would make a motion to adopt the volunteer um position of
highway liaison. There's second. Any discussion? All in favor? I I So then I would make a motion to appoint um Tom Ashley to the position of volunteer highway lazison. Are we doing a term for the term of one year? For the term of one year. Yeah. Um, is there is that
acceptable? You might not live longer now or never. You keep with your ways, you might not. Any discussion? No. All in favor? I I congratulations.
Thank you. Thank you. All right. So, um, we'll let him know that we finished the appointment and he can I'm sure he'll stop by at some point tonight, but I guess I'll do the paperwork next. Oh, okay. Perfect. All right. Well, well,
thank you. Thank you. It's official. All right. Um, so we'll come back to the report from Ry. Sure. Um so current town administrator so I have received uh communications from the department of public utilities regarding NSTAR electric company doing business as
Eversource um in a petition for approval of revised 2025 energy efficient reconciling factors. So, um, basically what it is is they were outlining how they were there was going to be a cost increase, um, for
additional cost recovery for energy efficient programs. I drafted a response to be sent to the DPU. I've given it to legal. Yes. Um, I don't know if you guys have I did. I read it. I don't have a paper copy, but I did read it. Um, do you want me to read it or Sure. Go
ahead. That would be great. Thank you. Um, on behalf of the town of Blamford, I respectfully submit the following comments in response to the petition filed by NSAR Electric Company, EBA Eversource Energy, requesting approval of revised energy efficient reconciling
factors, ERFs, effective July 1st, 2025. Lamford is a rural community in Hammond County with a population of approximately 1,165 residents. The median age is 52 years old, significantly higher than the state and county averages. Approximately 27% of
our population is 65 or older, indicating a substantial senior demographic. The median household income is reported at to be 88,587 and the per capita income is 46,907. While these figures are above
the county county average, they remain below the Massachusetts state average and 5.4% of our residents live below the poverty line. Given these demographics, many of our residents are on fixed incomes and are particularly sensitive to increases in utility costs. The
proposed increase in C and I EFS ranging from 0.2% to 9.2% could disproportionately affect our local businesses which are vital to our economy and provide employment opportunities for our residents. Furthermore, as a municipality with a
limited tax base, the town of Blanford faces challenges in absorbing increased energy costs for municipal buildings and services. Even modest increases in utility rates can strain our budget and potentially lead to higher costs for taxpayers. While we understand the necessity for cost recovery for energy
efficient programs, we urge the department to consider the cumulative impact of such increases on small towns and their residents. We respectfully request that the department explore alternative mechanisms to mitigate the financial burden on municipalities like Glamford, such as targeted relief
programs or adjustments to the proposed EERFs for communities with specific demographic and economic characteristics. Thank you for considering our comments and we appreciate the opportunity to participate in this process and look forward to your response. Fantastic. Are you just looking for a copy?
No. Um, who is it from? Me. From you. Okay. Well, the select it's a draft. It's a draft. Yeah. It's not on town letterhead yet because I didn't get approval from So, if you approve this, I would send this in response what DPU sent us. Yes.
That's fantastic. Thank you for doing that. Thank you. Interesting. Um I think we're here now if you want. Yes. Um Ray, do you want to come on down? We we skipped you. We'll come back to um we last time we met we had talked about um
the volunteer liaison. You had said that you weren't think we didn't need one at that time but then um Christina said you had brought it up again. So we did um just adopt the position and appoint um Tom. Tom's all set. Yeah. Yeah. Okay.
Tommy's going to be your guardian angel for you. He's there if you need. No. No. That's dirty. Uh, so what do you got for us? How's this week going? Busy. Yeah, very
busy. Uh, Friday I had a call about Curtis Hall Road going out to Maru towards Talon. That swamp. There's a cover pipe there that goes across. It's a swamp to the left. Yeah. I believe long long ago there was a hay
field that they could hay before the beavers moved in and flooded out that section. Um, as of right now, I just went up there to check it out. Someone has stolen our four cones that we put along the edge of the road. I pulled the grade out on Friday. I went back, pulled
that out so that at least whatever water could flow could flow. The water level is equal on each side of the road right now. So, I'm going to be planning the meet with Dick Gates and presenting this to him and seeing if he could help me out in any way. A resident even stopped on Friday
and said, "Look, there's a huge beaver dam that's on the outlet side of that land mass area and it's holding all that water back. I had about six inches of water Friday night across the whole road. So, it's for public safety. It's
not good." Mhm. So that's why I brought some cones out and just set them up so people seeing hey slow down a little bit especially with the the water across the road. But as it's sitting right now the uh water is passing through the pipe very
slowly but not where it's actually flowing. So this is just a picture land or our No, this is our land. Okay. So this is the outlet of the pipe. Yeah. You can see the amount of water that's flowing out
of it is just the pipe's doing the best it could. So the inlet side is the same amount. Okay. The water level of the area the it's just it needs to get addressed. An old culvert. That is an old cover. So that has constant water
flowing through it though because of the water has been held back over the years, right? So the pipe's doing its job. We keep the screen on it. Ever since I've been here, we got a screen in front of it. We got some rebarb in the ground so it doesn't get pushed over or anything, but when I
seen how much water was coming across the road, I drove the JCB up there and lifted that right out just so it would flow. And it did flow a little more, but as of today, it's u water level. Trying to get this to look like
it's level on both sides. Yeah. I just I would run out of ink if I printed these pictures, but this is the inlet side. Yeah. Oh, yeah. So, the whole road that's where the uh inlet of the pipe is. Yeah.
Then this is the field side. Okay. So out here there's a dam that's holding that back going into Talon's like tributary that they have. Okay. And where is the dam? Is that on our property you're saying? I'm going to
find out and I'll get back to you about that. Yeah, that would be more in depth. But that's got to get taken care of. That's one issue that arose on Friday. And with the rain coming, it's going to get Oh, I know. Um, today I had the guys go out and start cleaning since we basically
tomorrow is our last nice day before we have the rain coming for this weekend. Hopefully it's Memorial Day. We're not going to end up getting any rain, but we need the parking lots clean. So, I had them swap over everything on the tractor and put the broom on, went out, we did the
uh post office in the old town hall, and we took care of half of this parking lot out here. So, we're going to end up getting everything swept off. We have the loader to put the material in to get it out of here just so that it looks presentable for the parade when we have everybody come. And we're going to do
the same thing up at the uh the highway garage in the library. That was one thing I wanted to end up getting done. Actually, can I just say, yeah, I the handicap spot because you guys told me to because they were sweeping the parking lot. I didn't park in the handicap spot on purpose. I just didn't have time to move it before the meeting.
I apologize. That's a She's putting a note on your car right there. That's okay. You're good. It had to be done. Another thing over the weekend, I checked out uh Gore Road again. So, in case any residents
are thinking that it's Bford that's having a lack of communication with Verizon, but there's two tickets that have been put in for the work on the power line or the communication lines that have been taken down on Gore. They're going across the road. They're
spooled up uh on the side of the road. And I ended up calling them again yesterday and said, "When is something going to happen? It's been over a week and we still have wines on the ground." Mhm. So they said they put it in our ticket. I I was wondering what those
wires were like. Yeah. They're not They're not power. I even touched them myself to move them. Yeah. just to make sure, you know, but they uh they're not power. They're all communication fiber optic. Um so that's
out of the way. It's safe for the residents. Just so any concerns because I I'm still getting phone calls at the shop saying there's power wires down. It's not power. Got the process going. The state police were there over a week ago when it happened that Saturday night. They put in a ticket to have that done, but
Eversource, that's not Eversource's deal. So they didn't end up doing anything about it. Verizon Verizon. Yeah. So I contact uh contacted Verizon and I asked them, "All right, so Eversource, we have a a direct uh line
for um Eversource that we don't have to wait in line. I call this number and they answer right away. There's no lag time. Ask Verizon, where's your municipality or emergency number for us to contact you directly?" and they don't even have
one. So, you got to go through the prompt of putting in your it's forever account number and like it it takes a while. But, I finally got to someone and I told them anything comes up, please email the highway department so that I have that contact information for the future. Yeah. Yeah. They're a nightmare
to work with. Yeah. Okay. Could be easier. Um, and the flags are up for Memorial Day. The flags are up for Memorial Day. And I know some people in town are going to be noticing that some of the flags came off their lanyards. We got the new flag poles. We Mario went
around and handed up bolting new uh bases on the poles that were broken. So we did that last week while the weather was good. I figured we'd get a jump start on that. Um but the lanyards aren't as good. So what we're going to do is we fix the bucket truck cuz we had a line break on
that. So we got that fixed today. Okay. Tomorrow he's going to go out and we're going to end up stringing up the lanyards with metal wire just so it looks presentable for the actual Memorial Day parade and not that we have flags waving around. Okay.
Um, one other thing is we do have one of the military flags that still need to be uh arose up at the shop that isn't on the pole. So, we need to rering it. And also the lanyard on the bottom is
broken. So, we have some work on that, too. So, we're kind of slowing down on progress of getting other stuff done in town, but it's kind of crunch time right now to get this stuff done so we look presentable for Memorial Day at least. Okay. What else do I got going on? Did you
want to tell them about your communications with the people from the state, the issues that they're having with the water? Is it Tim? Oh, yeah. Tim. So, we have an issue on one of the side roads over here.
Um, and the the drainage on 23 feeds into Kalin Kalin Road. Okay. Yeah. All right. The drainage from the catch basins go down Kalin Road and then dump out behind a residence house towards the Mass Pike.
That's how their system works on 23. I call Tim Dion. He's uh with the state. He came out. We looked at it. Reu is with us, too. It was good communication. I got a good contact there now for Blandford, especially since he's at the
Bamford maintenance facility. Came out. We looked at the pipe. It's a old steel pipe that's under the road. There's a box down under that. So, Kalin Road when that pipe was new was not that wide. Kalin Road was half the size. So where
that box is where the drain used to be like a catch basin to collect water. Well, it's been capped over and the road's been widening like 70 ft. So there's an issue there. I asked him if we could end up plugging up the feed that's coming because we
have constant flow of water on Kalin right now from 23 because it dead heads. It doesn't continue down 23. It turns on the Kalin from 23. So, we're going to work together on a plan of attack and either putting a like a silk net overneath the over the lid on the catch
basin on 23 so the water will continue down the pave swell to the next basin. So, it'll stop the water and then the state has a camera crew that I requested that they would come out and cam the actual pipe and see what the condition of that pipe is before we start putting
money into rebuilding the the road and the pipe. We're going to have to cut the road no matter what cuz it is pretty bad. But if it's the state's pipe, let's work together on this and actually get this resolved so that we don't have another undermining of a road in the
future. Mhm. So that was a plus. And um in those conversations, he ended up asking, "Is there a water issue in Bford?" I said, "Well, I'm not in the water department, but there is." and he said it's getting to a point where they got to keep a 5 gallon pail of water to flush the toilet
at the maintenance facility at DOT. Have they reached out to the water department to let them know? They have and they haven't gotten a response. So, I've been waiting. I told him I said, "Look, talk his maintenance supervisor that's at the facility was going to end up CCing Christina and
myself and sending a letter Yes. of the issue so that it does get acknowledged by the town. So that uh that definitely if they're willing to help us out as simple as flushing the toilet that shouldn't be an
issue. So definitely water from the maintenance center comes up old Chester Road. Does it? Yeah. Really up that pipe that we have to cover up with the wash out. Got that supplies the um magnet center. Oh, it doesn't come down Chester
Road. Uh, it No, it comes up Old Chester Road from uh North Lamperville. Okay. Really? Goes right up road goes into the turn point goes up to the turn point and goes to Poppy's old
house. Really? And that and that's a one inch line, isn't it? The one going across the turn. One one inch line. Really? Yeah. All right. So, we need just need to make sure that um we'll have it documented
and we will make sure water gets it as well. Yeah, I'll follow up with him on that because this week he was going to contact me about when they could get the camera crew out cuz having a camera crew come out on Blford's end. We're talking a couple thousand dollars just to have
something done like that. So, if they have something, especially since they got their fingers in those pipes, too, that'd be awesome if we could work together on that. So, that was good. Um, do you have any quotes for the bathroom? Yeah, I actually do. So,
um, I ended up reaching out to a couple and couple licensed plumbers and contractors and there was a time crunch. I know this is important to get in. So, what I ended up receiving is what I have now.
So I have uh for the cutting and removing of the interior concrete slab for plumbing repairs needed. Once the uh repairs are made on the floor, it's going to be reoured with concrete and finished to
the match the existing structure of the floor. Um so there will be a new line that will be excavated from the interior of the building to the septic system. Okay. All site work will be done
outside connecting everything with new pipe properly. New bedding sand and then back build. Um all disturbed in exterior areas will be overseated and top soiled and then put some hay on. Mhm. Uh that
price is through Eminem site services and 9,450. Okay. So that's the entire that is not including the plumbing. This is just that's not including the plumbing. And on top of that, I don't even know what a sandy can would go for. I don't know if
we legally have to have a sandy can. Typically I for a day it's about 110. One with a sink. Okay. Is that one of those ones they have at like Butternut? I don't know. I just heater in it. No, no heat. There's no heater. Sorry.
It is nice. Honestly, go there to warm up. White has a ton of them. So, yeah, Greg, right? Greg, I'll end up calling him and see him. I know we got Rick's portaotti. Yeah, that's in Westfield. And we have Greg up in Washington. So, I can contact them, too. Um the other uh
so the contractor that got back to me is uh Connor on Sperry Road that has a plumbing business replacing the cast iron in the floor to bring up the code. This invoice brings the new vent through the roof. Honestly, right now he looked
at it and he said up the code there should be a a stink pipe going up through the roof, which it's not. So that's why we get a lot of the gas smell inside of the bathroom area when you're using the sink because it's not venting anywhere but in where the furnace is. So
the forced hot air during the winter time heats up in there and blows that smell all over the shop. Amazing. So it'd be nice to get this repaired. So he said that's not up to code. That would be one thing he'd want to bring up to code so we don't have any issues in the future on that. Um and then we're going
to reuse the sink. There's nothing wrong with the sink. It's a good cast sink. So, uh going to reuse the sink and uh he said in here the price is subject to change depending on what's found when
the floor is cut open. Yeah, which is true because we don't know what's under there, honestly. Uh that was $5,300. Okay. So, we're going to talk later about keeping this on the um
warrant for the fuel tanks, too. Yes, I do have a quote for the fuel tanks. Thank you. I'm weighing on an email. They're slow. So, I stayed Friday late in going
over this with them. Uh Nick Solder, he's a specialist in paint fuel tanks. Okay. And he's licensed in the state of Massachusetts. He came out and I got to meet with him and he did a walk around the tanks and he said, "Honestly, not
just the fuel tanks need to be painted, but we have a a heating oil tank. We have three tanks. We have gasoline, the diesel, and the heating oil. Mhm. He said those are the worst tanks he's seen. Like he's surprised we didn't end up getting any finds so far with no
labeling. So that Wow. Cuz you can barely read what the tags are even on the the tank itself. Mhm. So he works for Brimman Services. Beerman Beerman Services. So working with her, she sent him out. He and he
works for them directly. So, he couldn't give me a a number. He's got to give it to her and then she writes it up. But he suggests getting the oil tank done and the fuel and diesel tank at the same time so that it's all done and then at least everything's up to code, all the
identification uh stickers are put on properly where they should be and that would be taken care of. Um, what she gave me for a quote for just doing the painting on the tanks itself was anywhere from $4,200 to
$5,000. And that's stripping them, cleaning them, and then applying a special metal adhesive and then putting a metal uh primer and paint on it with the stickers. Um, so that I did not get this today
from her to have it in an actual paper email to give you, but these were the notes that I wrote down from Friday. That's not something we were looking at. Well, so I think it was the fuel tanks in general. Do you There was something about updating the system we had talked about. Yep. So I ended up speaking with
her also. She ended up uh hooking me up with Jack that's part of their service, their their company. Mh. and he actually the company provides card systems for the DOT facilities from all the way from
the New York border to the uh to the east coast. Okay. So, they've been doing this long enough a lot of issues have been weeded out by now and they can figure out what needs to be done and what would work for us. Okay. And what is a
good what is a good uh system. So, she ended up uh hooking me up with Jack. I talked to Jack for a Smartville cloud-based system, which basically works off the
Wi-Fi, because I did not know how the system works for the card reader at the shop that's there, the ancient one. Mhm. Did we have a system in the shop like a laptop or a computer that we manually downloaded everything and logs from when
you press your numbers in to unlock the fuel or the diesel? I don't know that info. And I asked Rainey that that wasn't working when he was here. So, they told me honestly that system's 20 years ago, it's obsolete and the issues
with it, you'd just be spending more trying to get that up to code. Okay. Um, so the cloud-based system, the smart fill, it does standard reports. Uh, it it's maintenancefree and it's the best
water weather resistant system that you can get. This is what the DOT facilities have. Mhm. It's $49.50 a month after you pay the initial installation, get everything in. The reason why it's $49.50 a month is because it logs
everything. It logs water department, it logs highway, fire, police, and then at that point it cloud-based. It puts it into a ledger so that it's all reported real time. So you want to see who filled up last night, you can click
on it and you can see it real time. Are you saying $4950? Okay. $49.50 a month for the fuel report package. That's what it is with that. So, $17,000 for the install on that
system. Yep. And then you pay the $49.50 a month for that. Or we could end up going with a proven vend system. It's a manual log info where we have to buy our own software. We have to buy our own computer and we have to end up having
the electrical work done where it's a hard line to that system. So instead of having it Wi-Fi capable, it would be hardwired. So we would end up needing to get that done. It's $20,000 for that system. Okay. Now,
at that point, no logging is like done at all. There's no calculations made. That's something then you would have to go into the system and every department would have to be separated out if it was
logged right. That's another thing. So it's a more time consuming um system for the proven vent versus the the cloud-based system. Um and with both systems you end up
getting 40 vehicle key fobs. So what they end up doing is they split up the key fobs to all departments. They add it up and they said they sell them in a 40 pack. So that would get dispersed to all departments and that department would be
logged to the key fob or we can do individuals like the person. The problem I don't like the person's having an individual key fob is what if that person had a key in a machine and he's in the 550 and he's driving the 550 to
the shop. Oh, sure. And it's getting worked on. You don't have a second fob. So, every vehicle has a fob in it on the key ring, then at least you know, okay, highway department truck 5 went and filled up and got 30 gallons on this
date at this time. So, it's more precise if we end up doing it that way. Um, I think they were just looking for rough numbers to go off of. We can definitely talk more detail later. Um, is that something we were putting on the warrant? Uh I think initially so there
was an article that we will discuss at the 7 o'clock meeting um to address both in the the upgrades needed to the bathroom and the security slashupgrades to the fuel pump. Um we put a placeholder number in there but I think
we were way off. We were way off. Uh so I think what we were really just looking for were some rough estimates which that's what I got for it. We may end up we we did talk about maybe holding that until a special town meeting so that we have more information. Okay. Um probably a couple months out, but we can talk
about that at 7. At seven. Yeah. Okay. Thank you, Ray. I appreciate it. Okay. Um I think those were my only questions for you. On on Old Chester Road, I took a ride down there the other day and that drainage ditch going down the left side
as you're headed toward North Lampers. There's a lot of water in that. And do you think that's all surface water from all the rain or do you think there might be a leak in that pipe? Is it past where the Mondays have their property entrance? No. Do you want to hold it or
do you want I can't tell you yes or no. No, but I have seen a lot of water. It would be worth uh mentioning it to water parking and maybe go stick the the line. Yeah. Just make sure that we're actually uh Check it out because I know
there is still a water leak in town. So, we have to find that. No. Or they have to find that. They said there wasn't. So, really? All right. Well, maybe there's not. Maybe they found it. I heard. No. And And before you get to Mundy's property where the Christmas
trees are planted there, there's a culvert that comes out of behind that field. Do we know where that comes from off? No. Is there a lot of debris? I think there's like some 55gallon drums or some water's running through them but right in that air it's on where the
woods turn into woods and the turns I' I've looked at that before. Yeah. I think that's just residual runoff from that field being the lowest level in that point there honestly. Okay. No, just wondering. And we took care of that tree too. Oh, good. On that's taken care
of. Great. I think that's it. Unless you have anything else for us, Ray. Um, no. I think that's it for now. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Christina, did you have anything else or
um I don't think so other than just No, I don't. All right. Um, board of health, Jennifer. No, I'm just going to remind um Highway that you do when you get ready to do the
bathroom, make sure your people pull permits with us. Um and then on the beavers, if you're going to do anything with the beavers, make sure you see the board help first. Okay. Just do it. Well, I know I'm going to need your help on that one. Most definitely. We can't
can't go out there and figure out a game plan without talking to you. So, this week I'll be in contact with you. decide what you want to do. Most definitely. Thanks, Jennifer. Oh, I was supposed to remind you that the the
swap shop ribbon cutting is the 31st. Okay. See, I told him. Um, thanks. You're welcome. Action item. Um, so we have a couple warrants to look at. We've
got this one. I'll give you that one to look at. That's the payroll. This is the regular warning. I don't see my race. Keep looking. Went harder. There's I really need to change this to
black. I can't see. water regional contractors. Is that the That's got to be the loan borrowing. So, it's 124. Also, it must be what they residual what they owe to Bay State Regional who
had emailed us that time recently saying that they were not moving forward to the get payment. So, this is coming out of Kelly is working on the discrepancies of where money has been coming out of for payment for certain projects within the
water department. Um, yeah. I don't know how to see on here where it's coming out. It says special town meetings 623 borrowing water ska upgrade expense. Is that the account was coming out of? I just
um yeah. So this was at special town meeting in June of 2023 and a borrowing was approved for this. Um but the borrowing didn't actually take place. What happens is the payments are um we submit uh reimbursements to Mass Clean
Water Trust and that's how it goes. So there's a 0% interest for us until we officially close out the loan. Okay. Which would be a different borrowing, but Kelly's trying to figure out. Okay. All right. Here's more water
VS and repairs. Water capital expense. Oh, that's a small one. All right. Motion to approve warrant number 24 for payroll and warrant number 24 for accounts payable. Second. Any
discussion? All in favor? I I All right. Then we've got appoint Mary Crown. No, we're not that. Mary is not going to take deposition, so if you could just table, just skip it. All right. Um motion to appoint Pat Lombard to
