<br /> November 16, 2006 <br />project was considered less important in the context of historical preservation than <br />the Hancock-Clark House project. It was also the opinion of some that the <br />Historical Society has the ability to raise these funds through alternative sources, <br />such as fees for use of the property. Some members also expressed a preference <br />to wait and see what else would be competing for these funds over the next year. <br />The committee voted 5-1 not to support this part of the article, with three <br />abstentions. <br /> <br />5. STM 1, Article 6 (Affordable Housing). <br /> This article seeks to appropriate for <br />use by Lexhab $50,000 recently paid to the Town by Brookhaven under a commitment it <br />had made, in connection with its recent expansion, to contribute $100,000 toward the <br />creation of affordable housing (presumably in lieu of creating affordable units as part of <br />its own expansion). After a short discussion, the committee voted 9-0 to support this <br />article. <br /> <br />6. STM 1, Article 8 (Senior Volunteer Program). <br /> This article seeks additional <br />funding for the senior volunteer program so that all seniors who have applied can be fully <br />accommodated. After a short discussion, the committee voted 9-0 in favor of this article. <br /> <br />The meeting adjourned at 11:00 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />Rod Cole <br /> <br />John Bartenstein <br /> <br />Approved January 11, 2007 <br /> - 3 - <br />
