Council discussed what was asked of them from the Joint Services Board Exploration Committee but felt that there was nothing to offer at this time. They were asked to discuss about any other services they may be interested in sharing, selling, or buying. The Town and the Municipality of Barrington now has an intermunicipal agreement regarding the fire department, landfill, recreation, and building inspections.
NEW BUSINESS:
The clerk was approached by Sea Star Seafoods Ltd to ask of the Town if they would allow them to remove a section of pavement on Courtney St that would abut their sidewalks and roadway for their equipment and replace with concrete. Concrete generally lasts longer than pavement and they are offering to do this and maintain this at their own expense.

Motion carried unanimously.

Being duly moved and seconded, porta potties will be used at the ball park instead of the current facilities.
Motion carried unanimously.
