e the center playground is off the table. Can we demolish the structure this <br />year and “create” a new structure next year? But most of the cost is in <br />demolition and removal of the (hazardous) materials <br /> <br />f. Other items on the warrant – visitor’s center, fire station, town hall <br />handicapped ramp. These have been pulled from consideration in this <br />year’s budget. Could they be funded by CPA without being in the budget? <br /> <br />g. Dick suggested we escrow all/most of the funds for later, when we have <br />more information about projects <br /> <br />2. Administrative Costs <br /> <br />How much should we allocate to administrative expenses? Wendy noted that per <br />MaryAnn McCall Taylor, it costs $400-500 per public hearing: $200-300 for <br />public notice, $15 for tech support <br /> <br />Carl should communicate with the DOR to see if there is information or computer <br />programs available for use by the Assessors’ office. The Assessor’s office will <br />send information in July tax bills about abatements to each of the 11,257 <br />households. <br /> <br />3. Application forms – defer until later meeting. Betsey handed out sample forms from <br />other towns. <br /> <br />4. Powerpoint slides for town meeting: <br /> <br /> what are 4 areas – description of CPA <br /> where does money come from –state trust fund and local taxes <br />process for approving projects <br />timeline - updated <br /> <br />5.
