The meeting started at 6:45 pm and ended at 10:50 pm, A Nashua resident appeared In person relative to a complaint he lent In letter form to Bednar cmv cernlng the Hudson Police Chief's lotions involving an arrest, with no conviction, ol his son. As a re- null, his son's license was svs- ponded even (hough he was not ihi' driver of the car in question, The Selectmen are awaiting more Information on this complaint discussing it further. In Ihe meantime, the Nashua resident cited Jhrce other inslances where he felt the Hudson Police Chief was somewhat out of order in the conduct of his office.

A Nashua contractor appeared before the board in connection wilh the paving of, Merrill sf. Building permits were being withheld, because the road was not accepted.

Involved There are two other contractors Involved In this area and It was decided to withhold building permits on these two contractors, until they agree to set aside money for the work to be performed. Meanwhile, efforts were to be made to sdve the proKcm of removing the ledge at no further expense to the contractor so the road could be tarred and additional building Issued. The quejllon of the acceptance ef the road near the Massachusetts line was again brought up bj a Hudson resident. No further information was received on any agreement between the Tyngsboro and Hudson Planning Boards concerning this problem and, until such an agreement can be reached, the cannot be nccepled by the Select- ji men.

Upon completion of the title search, the town would sell and deed the par. eels of land to the abullors.
