Announcements:
Supervisor McGee; We have a census that we need to get done. I looked on the tracking site
just before the meeting. New York's total so far is 51.6% And 42.6% done on the Internet.
Tompkins County, we're at 55.1% And 50.1% on the Internet. 2010, our self-response was
67.5%. Enfield, right now we're at 54.6%. 48.8% of those were done online. In 2010 we had a
69.8% response rate.
Town Clerk Ellen Woods; Oh, I was just going to encourage everyone to take a look at the
website updates and revisions. Happy to take any comments on that. I've updated and revised
that Enfield business directory. If there is a local business that I've missed, I'm going to be
looking for them. Please encourage everyone to contact me.
