Attendance:  All board members were present.  There were 10 members of the public in the audience.
Action:  The town board approved a 2011 update to the town assessments.  The last town wide update of the real property took place in 2008.

• The board will resend the resolution for hours in the work day.  This only applies to town employees and elected officials participating in the New York State Retirement Program.  The standard hours were set for highway superintendent (eight hours), clerk (six hours), assessor (six hours), and code enforcement/zoning officer (six hours).
Discussion without action:  The board will wait to vote on highway law 284 until the state passes its budget.  Perry explained that law is basically the road work the town plans on doing that year.  The board may have an emergency meeting to vote on highway repairs if needed.
