to conduct building assessment and ask Board of Finance for a
supplemental appropriation for this purpose." Our question:
how much $$ is the contract, is it (i.e. contract, RFP or any other
document) or has it been available for public inspection? Other
architectural work by this firm - does maybe Weston
need one of these?

forums to be held Thursday afternoon, September 29 at 3pm and Thursday
evening (we didn't catch the time - not yet up on Town TV information
about events or meetings notice board). We believe these will be
at Weston Library Community Room and be taped for later
broadcast. NOTE: power failure to parts of Town negated the
"live broadcast" aspect, but it will be shown on Town Channel at a
later date. "About Town" attended the evening session.

- 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.
- * = 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."
