And what if the water is not back on yet?

Yes interesting, why would town offices need to close?  But not businesses?  Come on, toilet's aren't working at Walmart, Price Chopper, Hannaford, the fast food joints, the town gin mill, etc

Town offices closed- is this a free days pay or do they"make up" the lost time?   How are these make up days/time, monitored/accounted for?

Oh of course it's paid time.  Government workers never have to charge time.  

Knew someone who worked, I can't remember if it was Pr Chopper or Hannaford in the ice storm of 08, they place was closed, they lost pay for the day.

Just like the stupid governor last week giving state employees an extra hour time off to watch the soccer game.  I enjoy soccer but not at taxpayer expense.  Will the gov offer early release time tomorrow for tomorrows game?
