A contract was awarded to Schofield to put the beams on top of the pilings to prepare the platform for the new building. By having this done now under the current contract, the committee was able to reduce the number of pilings being used and reduce costs.

Bids for the new harbormaster building will be going out on December 19, 2009 and due back to be opened on January 19, 2010. If a bid is accepted this time around, the work for the building will begin in April 2010.
A new gangway will be built for commercial use on the waterside opposite the current gangway. This is to help the commercial fishermen use the crane easier.
Talk about a Shellfish Constable continued and will be looked into further for state requirements and qualifications.
Discussions also continued about the Harbor Enterprise Fund.
