Under questioning she said she didn't know any of the people banned by name, but that her employees know who they are. Slattery said, as suggested by Sgt. Murphy, that the club has wanted to hire a police- man to keep the peace there but that the town doesn't allow it. Commissioner Paul Sullivan said he was "convinced there was a stabbing, but we can't say it is on record or we can't saythe employees were aware of it, so I'm hesitant to act on the charges." He and commissioner Gene Burman strongly suggested Kendrick's management set up policies on reporting in- juries and disturbance and schedule some training for the security force. They also urged management to coop- erate with the police, since, in this case, an arrest should have been made of whoever was wielding the knife. Mooney told the Patriot the building, recently partially damaged in a fire, is being repaired and that it should open within several months. Fire department reports note, according to commissioners, the refrigerator and stove in the kitchen were rusty, indicating a possibility they weren't being used. Mooney contended at the hearing that Kendrick's does in fact sell food after Sullivan said he staked out the estab- lishment on several summer evenings and saw little doing up until 10:30.Slattery said the club caters to a late crowd.

Activity is good for the Reg- istry and for county coffers, so Meade sees promisingtrends. 'Thethingthat wouldscareme is if we see a bump in interest rates,"he said. Part ofthe fuel for the Registry's rise was not so much home sales but refi- nancing as rates plummeted. Theyhavebeeninchingupward again in recent years. With a 30 percent drop in revenues in the first three months of this fiscal year, county leaders are waiting to see second-quarter results through December in hopes of discovering an uptick. A combination oftapping county reserves and making budget cuts will be considered as responses. County departments are planning their FY 08 budgets without firm numbers as the commissioners wait for the latest numbers.Level-funding and no new initiatives are the bywords. Meade said the Registry has already identified about $45,000 that it won't spend thisyear, including acouple of unfilledvacancies and money for supplies. "We knew thiswas coming," CommissionerLanceLambros said. "We're prepared. We're not in panic mode." Meade agreed. "Interest rates are still low. Taxes are reasonable if you're coming from the city. If you're look- ing to buy, buy now. They're not making any more of Cape Cod." CONTINUED FROM PAGE A:1 nized standard. Hutchenrider advised against such a move because of the confusion it would undoubtedly cause. Daleysaidthat ifthe council is truly interested in a report by Feb. 1,it might simply state that changing representa- tion in advance of the census requires a special act of the legislature. "I'm not sure I know what's right for six years from now," Daley said,later adding,"They might be more comfortable having a group closer to that time take a look at it." This is a problem only if the committee attempts to make the council's member- ship smaller and maintain some form of district repre- sentation. Votong districts in town are precinct-based. For a council made up of all at-large members, for which there's been little public ap- petite in the past, the number of precincts would not be an issue. Thisproblem would surface as well for a charter commis- sion looking to change repre- sentation. Committee chairman and Town Councilor Jim Crocker said that he wasn't troubled by that possibility if it is the consensus and recommenda- tion of the committee. "That's the only way we're going to get a district repre- sentative before the census," Daley said,findingagreement withtown attorneyBob Smith and Hutchenrider. The Charter Drive The signature drive to get a charter commission on the 2007 town ballot is moving swiftly along and in all likeli- hood willhave little difficulty gainingthe needed signatures by the August deadline. With that understanding, along with the limitationsimposed by redistricting, the ques- tion of what good the review committee's work at present will be began to seep into the conversation. Review committeemember Susan Rohrbach said that her understandingofthe council's charge to the group was to develop aplan to be prepared for the changes that the 2010 census could bring, not to draft aplan to be implemented in advance of it. Rohrbach also recognized that a charter commission could negate any of the rec- ommendationsthe committee offered. The charter reviewcommit- tee was formed at Crocker 's request to addressthe section of the charter dealing with the composition, powers and duties of the town council, especially with respect to mode of election and number of councilors. It was the pos- sibilitythat the council would continue to grow in number, based on the one represen- tative from each precinct requirement , that Crocker said was the impetus for the committee. As the meeting drew to a close, town attorney Smith told the committee that the value ofthe committee'swork is in seeing the complexity of the proposition and thinking it through. The charter review commit- tee hit on a number of topics that have been the source of pained discussions by past councilsat Wednesday'smeet- ing - term limits, compensa- tion -but it was anew wrinkle that will affect the work of this council-appointed group and any charter commission impaneled in the next two years. Smith said the committee has an "appreciation for the complexity of the problem. I really think you've developed value rightnow,"he said ofthe committee's discussion. 13 unlucky for panel... jg A GRATEFULTHANK YOU I— —I ' Cape Cod Charitable Fun Raisers would like lo extend our most sincere thanks # t o all involved with this year's 15"' annual Last Gasp Bike, Boat n' Bake it was a fabulous year!
