02/05/15 AC Minutes done by the EWG and SMMA, but he wants to see funding alternatives, such as phasing projects, that allow more flexibility and reduce the impact on the tax rate. All potential debt exclusion funding for Town and School projects needs to be included. Dr. Ash stressed two points: ➢ There is an immediate, critical need for additional pre-kindergarten space and additional middle school space, irrespective of enrollment projections. ➢ The request for the $4,080,000 does not make a commitment to a series of projects that address all the enrollment issues; it allows the Town to prioritize the best approach for addressing the capacity needs associated with current and projected enrollment. Mr. Addelson discussed probable funding techniques for the $4,080,000. Dr. Ash said that he envisions a debt exclusion referendum in December 2015 or January 2016. The meeting was adjourned at 9:55 p.m. The documents used at the meeting are listed below. Respectfully submitted, Sara Arnold Recording Secretary Approved February 19, 2015 Exhibits 1.
