Highway department resolution

I stopped by Dryden Town Hall this morning - they're open Saturdays in January - and asked Dryden Town Clerk Bambi Hollenbeck for a copy of the highway funds spending resolution that was probably the most controversial aspect of Thursday's meeting. I took it home and scanned it. The optical character recognition (OCR) program that came with my scanner just plain doesn't seem to work, so for now here's the graphic in TIFF format.

Town Highway Expenditures approved January 15, 2004 (297K TIFF)

The two bits people at the meeting seemed most interested in were (F) and (G), which I've extracted with a different (though not great) OCR program, and then corrected by hand.

F. On the road commencing at Genung Rd. & Snyder Hill Rd. - and leading to Ellis Hollow Rd., a distance of .7 miles, there shall be expended not over the sum of $35,000. Type cold mix Width of traveled surface 20' + -, thickness __________, and subbase 3.5" crusher run cold mix, surface treat 1A limestone
G. On the road commencing at Hunt Hill Rd. & Midline Rd. - and leading to Ellis Hollow Rd., a distanceof 2.46 miles, there shall be expended not over the sum of$ 99,500. Type cold mix Width of traveled surface 20' + -, thickness _________, and subbase 3" crusher run cold mix, surface treat 1A limestone
