Infront of a home or just on the side of the road. He stated if it was a mattress that was

bring it to the Transfer Station, noting that mattresses can be brought to the Transfer  
Station for free.

VII. NEW BUSINESS  
Discussion and possible action regarding the transition of outstanding/unfinished business  
1.  
items to be forwarded to the incoming Land Use/Planning/Public Works Committee.  
Councilor Dombroski explained that according to Roberts Rules, Article IX  
“Committees and Boards” Unfinished business from a committee generally dies when  
the committee's term ends and a new committee was elected, unless the unfinished  
business was specifically deferred to the new incoming committee with instructions.  
Therefore, he stated that it has been the Town Council’s practice to forward “Unfished  
Business” to the in-coming Members by providing the attached Transition Memo; as to  
save the Unfinished Items of Business from dying.  
By consensus the LUPPW Committee agreed to forward the following unfinished items  
of business to the i coming Land Use/Planning/Public Works Committee:  
(1) Process to designate the Spicer Ruins, within the Clark Farm property, as a  
Registered Historical Site.  
(2) Agricultural Commission List of Criteria for the Leasing of Town-Own  
Land such as Clark Farm and former Norwich State Hospital Property  
to encourage the properties continue to be used for Agricultural  
purposes,  
(3) Progress of enforcing regulations to address blight issues.
