The Auburntown City Council met Tuesday, September 6, 2011 at 6:00 PM for their regular monthly meeting. The Mayor and all councilpersons were
present.
The City Recorder presented a copy of the previous month’s business
meeting for approval. After a brief review the minutes were approved
as presented.
The financial statement ending August 31, 2011 was passed out for
review and approval. The report was approved without change or
question.
The recent Red Apple Day activities were discussed. A very favorable
report was given. However, the financial report has not been
completed but should be ready for the next council meeting.
No new information on the closing of the Auburntown Post Office. In
the meantime, the trouble encountered by the US Post Office is even
more troubling. Post Office officials have inquired regarding a
meeting place should a public hearing be needed.
Fund raising by the Volunteer Fire Dept. was discussed at length.
They have decided that with the last August Fish Fry, they will no
longer be conducting the monthly event. However, plans are being
made to go in another direction in conducting fund-raising
activities for the Dept.
Matthew Thomas and Mark Thomas, students at CCHS Civic Class,
attended and monitored this session.
