Item 4 –Proposed Mailing Policy; Note: We have been asked by some local businesses to include mailers in our monthly water bills. Gary reported a business had approached the town asking if they could send advertisements for their business in with the water billing, which Chris agreed to do. Since that time another business has come forward with the same request so staff decided a policy should be in place which would include a cost sharing between the town and the business making the request. The non-profit organizations will not be charged but must supply the advertisements folded to fit in a business size envelope. Concluding discussion, Trustee Thomas moved to approvethe Mailing Insert Policy for profit and non-profit, seconded by Trustee Heaton. Motion carried 5 – 0.
