Ms. Diaz-Trahan reported that there is no requirement to have a single document regarding history. The existing document on file (covering two years) records the Town's fight for incorporation. She explained that the commission can choose to work on expanding the existing historical document or choose a different kind of document, such as an annual report.
Commissioner Thomae discussed the need to meet Certified Local Government requirements in order to get grants. He offered to work with Chair Guyer to determine requirements and how to maintain the standards for certification. Chair Guyer and Commissioner Thomae will work together on this item.
