There was a suggestion of paying the various board members a small salary
or perhaps an estimated mileage amount. Mr. McLean was asked to take this
to the Planning and Zoning Board for their reaction. Mr. McLean suggested
that perhaps any amount put in this type of fund should be used for the
placques.
Money for this purpose should be added to the budget. The Clerk was
instructed to recompute the Election Judges salaries.

money is not being spent in 1978, this year's budget will be adjusted and
that money will put in 1979's budget.
The police department proposed budget was discussed and the reasons for the
increase.
On the road budget, Mr. Volk had included his salary in that department.
Since in 1978, Mr. Volk's salary was included in the general salaries, he

a comparable compprison for 1979. Mr. McLean also suggested that the road
budget be increased in the area of contracted services for the upgrading
and maintenance of the•streets.
