Buhle will send photos to the Mayor for Events Magazine. Schneider asked if we could get this
into the newspaper. Mayor Allyn will look into that.

Vincent pointed out that we’ve been discussing this for a while. Tashea asked if we had budget
for the printed directory that was discussed as an option at our last meeting Hary suggested that
an online document is all that we need and avoids the cost of printing and offered to do the
layout for it. Buhle suggested that a printed directory that also included other useful town
information would be good to have for new residents. Dreimiller asked if there were updates that
needed to be made to the New Business brochure. Town Planner Hodge will work with
Dreimiller to update it. Town Planner Hodge has a list of new businesses since July 2020 and the
intern came up with for commercial areas. Dreimiller asked about whether the money that had
been budgeted for the AdvanceCT membership which was not renewed was still in the EDC
budget. Mayor Allyn wasn’t sure but would find out.
