FLU continued from page 1 cine.” While in the past, municipalities have tar- geted the very young and the very old, this year Pelletier explained the target population has broadened considerably. “The recommendation this year for the flu is anybody six months old and older, which is kind of a new attitude. There is still a priority list — elderly,extreme youth, pregnant women — but the target group is now everybody.” The Auburn Free Public Flu Clinic, spon- sored by the Auburn Board of Health and Auburn Visiting Nurse Association, will be held Saturday,Nov.13, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., at Auburn High School. The clinic is for those ages 10 and older due to the fact that “we do not want to take an excuse away to see the pediatrician for those younger than 10 that should occur as much as possible,” Pelletier said. It is asked that visitors use the front doors, bring an insurance card if you have one, and sneeze respectfully.

Regarding Palmer’s budget, O’Connor said he would meet with department heads to assess how much money they need, especially in a period where many local governments have seen cuts in their state aid. To ease the already difficult budget process, O’Connor said he would start the budget process later, in January,after the state releas- es its preliminary local aid figures for commu- nities. O’Connor acknowledged, however, that he had difficulty answering the question because he had not reviewed the budget before the interview. O’Connor also admitted he spent a half a day in Palmer, familiarizing himself with the community, and knew little of its pressing issues. He said he would have to assess them, once hired, to answer the ques- tion. “You have to have an assessment,” he said. O’Connor also cited his views on local gov- ernment and problem-solving skills as rea- sons for wanting the job. He said he loves working with other people and hearing dis- senting views from his. Specifically,he said he excels at negotiating with other people. “You have to use every skill … in your tool bag,” he said. Despite his skills, O’Connor acknowledged he has difficulty firing employees, even if they deserve it. “Not taking a termination action fast enough, with an employee,” O’Connor said of his biggest weakness. “I have to feel comfort- able [the employees needs to be fired].” He said, however, he is not “gun-shy” in cases where an employee made an egregious Acclaim Claire Rainville, Realtor error.

The ZR1 offers a comfortable ride thanks to the magnetic ride control that allows for a cruise set- ting of sorts.
