03/16/2017 AC Minutes ➢ A motion was made and seconded to support all but the local option under Chapter 41, Section 111F included in Article 36. The motion passed. VOTE: 9-0. An effort will be made to obtain further information on the fifth local option in time to vote before the matter comes before the ATM. • Article 38: Amend General Bylaws Revolving funds: Resulting from the MMA, this article would allow the Town to expedite the process of establishing future revolving funds by including them in a bylaw. ➢ A motion was made and seconded to support Article 38. The motion passed. VOTE: 9-0 • Appendix A: Mr. Bartenstein noted that a Lexington bylaw requires this Committee to submit budget projections for future years [Code of Lexington § 29-11(A)]. Conservative estimates are typically used, sometimes projecting considerable deficits although the Town ultimately cannot incur deficits since its budget must be balanced; nevertheless, it is a useful exercise. • Introduction: Mr. Bartenstein reviewed his plans for an introduction to the Committee report. There was a review of remaining tasks required to finalize the report, which should go to the printer on Monday or Tuesday. 2.
