the Peconic Lane Community Center to solicit volunteers.
Other: Rona expressed the importance of HAC understanding their role as an advisory body to
the Town Board and also cautioned that HAC should not demonstrate any support to the Habitat
project that could be perceived as an "endorsement" as it is their project, not the Town, not HAC.
As individuals, members of HAC can support as they see warranted.
Fred noted that the Town Hall meeting room is much preferable meeting space than the
conference room so future meetings will be scheduled there when available.
