  181. Board of Ethics "Commission", as the notice in Town Hall read.  (Does this signify that there is a Commission to study the Board of Ethics?)  A meeting was to take place Saturday, September 24, 2005, 11AM, at the Weston Public Library.  No agenda items named.  Unless this meeting was called off on Friday*, not only did it not take place Saturday, but it was not officially cancelled.  No one at the Library on Saturday was aware of anything more than the Board of Ethics reservation (for, I believe, the small room)...looked in the small room and the big room used for public events. Of course, we didn't check the Youth Services office in the back (shades appeared drawn), since there was a private conference going on at the long tables to the rear of the stacks...I didn't want to intrude...left at 11:20am.  Oh--didn't check what used to be the second floor "loft" stacks, either.
  182. * = It was, so we found out on Monday.  Rescheduled on Friday at the official  notice location in the Town Clerk's Office, September 23 at 11am, to "9/26 @11am, Weston Public Library."
