Mr. Connolly asked Chairman Burr if we might observe a Moment of Silence in memory of
George Schugmann and Nathanial "Jake" Farrington. Mr. Connolly noted that retired Fire
Lieutenant Nathanial "Jake" Farrington was a long-time committed member of the Fire
Department. Mr. Schugmann was a former Veteran's Agent and a Finance Committee member.
Both gentlemen will be sorely missed.

License Renewals: Christina Carlton, Licensing Agent:

Mr. Friel noted that Mrs. Carlton has spent a lot of time and effort in preparing these licenses. He
explained that a couple workshops were held which required the applicants to turn in the
necessary paperwork. He commended Mrs. Carlton's efforts. Mr. Friel noted that there were very
few applicants with outstanding monies owed to the Town and asked that the Board consider
accepting these Applications contingent upon satisfactory payment of same.

Mrs. Carlton presented the License Renewals for the 2006 Calendar to the Board. She noted that
we have not yet received a renewal application for Francis Leahy, III for his Class II License. She
reminded the Board of the prior acceptance for a 90-day extension which would allow Mr. Leahy
the time to resolve his probate issues. Ms. Carlton noted that Mr. Leahy is still trying to resolve
these issues.

Mrs. Carlton noted also that R.M. Blue Hills (ski area) has not turned in their paperwork for
renewal of their Common Victualler's License.

Mrs. Carlton informed the Board that the ABCC is requiring a valid Certificate of Inspection
beginning with the Licensing in the year 2006 for certain establishments. She noted no license
would be issued without same.

Motion was made to approve contingent upon all standards being met the Common Victualler
Licenses for 2006 for the attached Applicants (see attached hereto and therefore made a part
thereof.).

Motion:Mr. Connolly

Second:Mrs. Elkort

Vote: 5-0

Mr. Salvatori inquired as to what would happen if Applicants were not compliant by the end-date.

Mr. Friel noted that the license would be suspended or revocation of same if compliance was not
met by the expiration date. He also noted that a vast majority were already compliant at this point.

Motion was made to approve contingent upon all standards being met the Entertainment Licenses
for 2006 for the attached Applicants (see attached hereto and therefore made a part thereof.).
