Old Business

2. Status of available funds with suggestions for best use.
3. Review of community sign up status and appointment status (members, alternates and Community Emergency Response Coordinator). Note: The name of the coordinator is required for Ecemp. Please bring a listing of your community’s appointments, as you know it, to the meeting. The Town Clerks have received an independent request for this information and some have responded, but I would like your input. Each community is allowed 2 members and an alternate. I have 2 names for Ashby, 1 name for Ayer, 2 names for Harvard, 2 names for Littleton, 2 names for Shirley, and 2 names for Westford. Dunstable, Groton, Pepperell, and Townsend are OK with 3 names.  
4. Bylaws review. Comments on what we could be doing differently. See separate Email with copy attached
5. Certification 
6. Please bring your communities listing of Tier 2 reporters for comparison purposes. It is required that Tier 2 reporters send a copy to the Fire Chief. We are now in a new year and Tier 2 reporters must submit updated or new information. 
7. Availability of “NIMS for EOC’s” for use by communities for training
8.  Suggestions as to what can be done differently. What would members like to see at meetings? It has been suggested that we could do a series of short (1/2 to 3/4 hour)table top exercises / discussions of problems that we might encounter and how we could be prepared to help each other out.
