Stakeholders will be looking at the long-term programming and facility needs. Recommendations <br /> on the full build out, use,programming, and phasing will be under consideration this fall, winter, <br /> and spring and we anticipate there will likely be another capital request for the Annual Town <br /> Meeting in the spring. However, the scope of that request is yet to be determined. <br /> The AhCCAC is recommending the move of all Muzzey functions as soon as possible to avoid <br /> having to also spend the money to bring that building up to code compliance. It has not yet had <br /> adequate time to evaluate if other Town departments should also move in at this interim occupancy <br /> stage. <br /> Nonetheless, it plans to continue its consideration of the Recreation Department's interim <br /> occupancy at its upcoming meetings in order to be able to make a recommendation to the BOS well <br /> before the Town Meeting vote. The AhCCAC members, at various meetings to date, have strongly <br /> expressed the opinion that this new Community Center should be an intergenerational, <br /> multicultural, inclusive facility, right from the start. The Committee is looking to find ways to <br /> ensure that the programming at the CC will support this vision. <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT: <br /> NA—see budget in SBA report <br /> RECOMMENDATION/ SUGGESTED MOTION: <br /> Support the AhCCAC recommendations and include the necessary warrant articles on the <br /> STM Warrant. <br /> STAFF FOLLOW-UP: <br /> AhCCAC and Facilities Department will continue working with architects on plans and <br /> presentation for the Special Town Meeting. <br /> Prepared by MC <br />
