 The orc has been admitted. I've had Madam Chair. Okay, so let's get started. Hall to order. And is there any public comment for items not on the agenda? Additions or changes to the agenda? So the child clerk has requested a new laptop, so that he can use it at home. And we received a quote from RB Tech and between September 17th and today, all the computers are gone. So I would like us to, yeah, that's how fast they're going. What? All the computers are gone. You mean they're not working? What they had in inventory have already been. So, and they're hard to get. Right, they're very hard to get. Oh, the crisis, chip crisis. So I would suggest that we authorize the purchase up to a specified limits. And when there's, he can let Jeremy can let, what's his name? No, Brittany, Brittany at RB Tech start searching. And I'm looking at this quote, Jeremy, and it says 2379, then it's 1989, and then it's two, yeah. And then it's, so which, what's the amount? Well, this, the total amount will be that, that's the installment and the service. So what? Is this the total? Oh, okay. This is the total. This is the total. She was just suggesting total with 2379, and who knows what? For an invoice that's no good anymore because they don't have any more stocks. So depending on. So it would be like up to 2,500? That would be more than enough. I think she would suggest a 22 or 23 max. Hopefully we can come in under. Yeah. Just depends on the user. Thank you. Do we, there's a certain, I assume there's a budget for a capital budget, right? Right. There's no money currently in the technology fund. So we have, I think you saw, I sent an email. This is a replacement for a computer that's, it's not. The computer that Judy had is on its way up and currently serving. It was completely, they had it stripped by Army time. And now it serves as a computer in the vault for researchers. It can run the costs, but I did try to like, I couldn't, I was trying to get it to zoom or just do some basic things that's very slow, but it seems to be able to handle costs in print. So we're kind of just gonna let it do its thing until it doesn't work anymore. I'm not doubting the need for a new computer. What I'm wondering is why do we, as a select board, is this part of, do we have a kind of ongoing budgetary process for purchasing capital goods? The reason we need to ask, as a reason why do we need to because there's not a line item of money available. And if we were going to use the reserve fund, that has to be authorized by the select board. That's one. No, there's no ongoing, there's no ongoing response. Sandra sent an email out. Did you see that? Yeah, right here. Say that there's adequate resources in. Right, she's saying we don't have to use technology reserve fund. That's the reason that we wouldn't have to authorize it if that was the case. She said that their general government budget lines, office equipment and ITDRA, but I don't, when I looked at the budget, I didn't see that there was enough money in those line items. So what would happen is we would go over budget and generally you don't want to make that a habit. You want to try to stay on budget, even though at the end of the year, general government all sugars up and then highway does its thing. And there is a $500 line item in the town office equipment and budget that could be utilized. Right, but that's not the reason. Right, so that's why I was thinking technology reserve fund and that's why I looked it up in a previous, in 2016, we set up this reserve for technology. So that's why it was on the agenda because Jeremy was very mindful that there wasn't money in the budget specifically. Okay, so that's why you want to, yes. I'm going to approve all of the purchase of the computer from the reserve fund up to a maximum of $2,500. Hopefully less, but up to a maximum. Yep. There's any seconded. Did you get all that Katie? Okay, everyone in favor please say aye. Aye. Any opposed? None. Okay, all right, you're good to go. Thanks. Appreciate it everybody. All right, thank you. Good luck getting one with the way things are right now. I'll see you out there, I'll be right back. Yeah. I've been okay. Great evening, I do. So you're not from the woods. You're our man, the white, right? Yeah, it wasn't worth setting up the whole big thing because most of it's going to be an executive session. That's why. What's on this? I stuffed my face where I came here. So did I. Well, you better have my confidence. I really stuffed my face. I had two sandwiches, I should have one. I don't know, no, there was no girl involved. This is garlic. But I've been having goat cheese with garlic the last few days. Goat cheese, I did. We'll video it. I should come up with a video. I sure should. I should. There you go. Okay, so we're going to go and executive session for two things in my mind. Talk to Alfred about his valuation. All right. And our next steps. Huh? And our next steps. Right. Okay. And then another issue that has come up that we need to talk about. Okay. Well, are we ready for him? Are we gonna make a motion now or are we ready to come in? We can make it now. We can make it now and just hang. So. We're going to do it in a second for personnel matters. So, Shari moved. Mark seconded. We're going to go into executive session. It's one DSA. Exactly. Okay. Would you like, would you, shall I end the recording or pause it or the Zoom call or what should we do? Actually, before we go in, we just kind of put that on hold for two seconds. This is an FYI. Most of us are on the minstern when you're watching following along quality of cares. We will have an agreed upon easement. These cows is re-signed on the 27th. Yeah, I saw that. So I'll put it on the agenda pool. Yeah. And also, Katie, just for the minutes. That's great. The select board. That is great. Yep. Just so it's there for people to see. Yep. That's it. The other thing is, I wanted to tell you guys about this amazing restaurant we went to in New Hampshire the other day. It's called Thompson House Eerie. If you are looking for an anniversary experience, cannot recommend highly enough. I was finding one of them. Okay. It's only seven hours away. Right. It's in Jackson, New Hampshire. An hour and 40 minutes. Okay. So with that, we're in executive session. So I think we can shut down. We can end the call, right? Yep. Yes, please. Yes, please. Okay. Thank you. Good night. Okay. Good night.
