Review of proposals for green burial road

details of the bids . The motion was seconded and the Commission moved into executive
session at 5:15.

included a narrative, and was less costly, Appleton moved that the

the cost. If the cost does not increase significantly, she moved we accept
his bid. The motion was seconded and passed unanimously. Stitely will
