Buy a digital scanner

I have a lot of thoughts on the conundrum the town board faces.
To buy the Elna Ferrite building or not to buy, that seems to be one of the questions.
To sell or not to sell the Old Town Hall building, that seems to be another question.

What seems perfectly clear this beautiful snowy morning, digitize digitize digitize.
Town records don't need to be stored in metal file cabinets in the 21st century.

They can be safely scanned into digital files, easily retrieved from a data base, not a brick and mortar building.
