Evaluating

 

The only other items for discussion on the agenda included a progress report on proposed extensions of the fiber trunk.  The Trooper’s Alley extension to the Abingdon Fire Department at 316 Park Street was reported as in progress with Purchase Orders issued by the Town to Sprint for such work.  Additionally, a contract for lease of electronics equipment from the TelImagine Co. has been signed and accompanying deposit check returned to that company via overnight letter service on 26 May.  The second of these extensions is a short one from the present terminus at Highlands Union Bank along Russell Road over to the general vicinity of Latture Field in order to serve the proposed new Police Department and the recreation buildings at that location.  This project is under evaluation for cost and that information will be forthcoming at a later meeting.

 

One other item worthy of note was reported by Dr. Moore.  That was that the current owner of the proposed Industrial Park had accepted the Town’s offer and that project will probably be underway shortly.

 

The date of the next meeting will be held on the normal fourth Wednesday meeting date which falls on 28 June, 2000.

 

 

 

There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 1:22 PM.

 

Respectfully Submitted,

 

 

Albert C. Bradley,

Secretary
