A budget reveals a community's priorities and values,and here in Lexington,students are what matter most. The carefully selected student artwork that adorns the budget document in your hands reveals the diversity of our school community and reflects the impressive talent of our young people.The artistic renderings further symbolize the community's desire to nurture and grow our students' creative, as well as academic,talents. Each student's unique masterpiece reminds us that Lexington schools are culturally diverse and united by a shared sense of purpose and pride. Young people are at the heart of all that we do,and we emphasize their importance throughout our FY 2020 budget guidelines and goals.We dedicate resources to ensure smaller class sizes and academic innovations,such as the continued exploration of elementary world languages and project-based learning.We prioritize the health and well-beim of students by allocating funding for inclusion specialist support for teachers and elementary health education. We reflect our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion in the funding designated for an equity audit and a new "Director of Student Equity,Safety, and Supports,"designed to serve our students and families. Finally,our proposed budget supports collaborative,community- based endeavors, including the Town's joint mental health initiative and the school department's strategic planning effort, which provide direct support to students and strengthen our school-community partnerships. The Town of Lexington has historically and generously divided its revenues by allocating 74%to the schools and 26%to the municipality.While we are grateful for our annual allocation,we are not without tough choices.The FY 2020 recommended budget takes into account approximately$2.4 million in Lexington educator requests. Based on the allocation we received, we can fund an estimated$1.2 million,or roughly half of those requests,with the majority of resources dedicated to meeting state and federal educational mandates and rapidly increasing enrollments. In our view, approximately $370,000 of the unfunded educator requests—of the remaining $1.2 million—are worthy of continued consideration. These unresolved requests include what some may consider essential additions, such as a high school college and career Readiness counselor, a Sheltered English Immersion (SEI) coach for teachers of our English Language Learners, and an Assistant Athletic Director to oversee the expansion of intramurals and provide students with more opportunities to participate in school-based activities. Fortunately, we were able to find efficiencies, such as an economical approach to a later school start and a creative plan to address the need for additional science labs that saved over$1 million;otherwise,this list of unresolved budgetary requests would have grown longer.We will continue to maintain a responsible budget and collaborate with Town officials to respond to thoughtful budgetary requests of this nature in the years to come. It is a privilege to serve as your new Superintendent of Schools,and it is an exciting time for Lexington!As we work together to build an educational vision for the future,please know that I am honored to serve your children and grateful for your time, energy,and commitment to the Lexington Public Schools.

During this time, a series of working summit meetings including the Board of Selectmen,the School Committee,the Appropriation Committee, and the Capital Expenditures Committee are conducted to discuss the current financial health of the FY2020 Town Manager's Preliminary Recommended Budget&Financing Plan January 28, 2019 111 - 5 Program: Education 1100 Lexington Public Sch l Town, along with any budgetary issues, and provide policy guidance to the municipal and school staff in finalizing budget recommendations.The Superintendent, in consultation with the Assistant Superintendent for Finance and Operations and the School Department's Administrative Council, reviews budget requests and makes recommendations for all school programs to the School Committee. The School Committee takes the recommendations of the Superintendent and after public hearings on the Superintendent's Budget Recommendations, makes final budget decisions consistent with their collective goals. Early Spring: A month before Town Meeting discusses financial articles, the approved budget of the School Committee is distributed to Town Meeting members and the finance committees, it also isavailable tocitizens at the Library and the Town Manager's Office. In addition, the budget documents are publicly available on the Lexington Public 5choo|svvebsite: Spring: The Annual Town Meeting begins in March with meetings held on weekday evenings. Town Meeting debates and adopts the School Department budget as part of the total Town budget.Town Meeting has authority over the total appropriation of school department funds, but line-item authority and spending priorities are the purview ofthe School Committee. Budget Guidelines On October 23, 2018, the School Committee voted the FY 2020 Budget Guidelines and requested that the Superintendent present a level-service budget that addresses the fifteen highlighted areas.These guidelines serve as the basis for the Superintendent's Recommended Budget in FY 2020. For purposes of clarification, a level- service budget is defined as an allocation of the funds necessary to replicate the current level of services provided, eve|servicebudgetisdefinedasana||ocadonofthefundsnecessarytorep|icatethecurrent|eve|ofservicesprovided, accommodating increases in enrollment, all legal requirements, including current collective bargaining requirements, and special education laws.The FY 2020 budget guidelines are as follows: In order to provide for the educational needs of Lexington students, the Superintendent of Schools will develop a fiscal year 2O2Obudget that will: 1� Ensure the safety, security, and social-emotional well-being of our students. 1 Ensure all legal and contractual mandates will bemet. 1 Ensure professional staffing guidelines will be met and class sizes will remain within the established guidelines,tothe extent possible given space limitations. 4� Identify efficiencies and cost-saving measures that do not compromise the educational program. 5� Include sufficient operating and capital funds to: a. continue the current level ofservices,� b� be responsive to projected enrollment growth and corresponding needs, including those related to staffing, instructional supplies, andfaci|ides,� c. move the district forward in meeting the increasing technological demands in various educational settings,, d� implement a master capital plan to expand school capacity and meet rising enrollment� FfZOZOTown Manager's Preliminary Recommended Budget OkFinancing Plan January Z0, ZO19 Program: Education 1100 Lexington Public Sch l e. support the successful submission of Statement of Interest (SOI)for Lexington High School and advocate for proper budgetary planning in the feasibility and design phases. 6 Maintain capital assets in order to support the instructional program, protect the physical assets of the Town of Lexington, and ensure the health and safety of our students and staff. 7� Identify funds and strategies to implement diversity, equity and inclusion efforts and to increase the cultural proficiency ofour school community. & Identify funds and strategies to continue to leverage and support social and emotional learning efforts throughout the district. g� Identify funds and strategies to leverage and support project-based learning efforts throughout the district. 10� Continue to explore possible alternatives and improvements to school schedules at all levels, including elementary health education, K-8World Languages, and the scope and sequence ofscience classes atthe secondary level. 11� Identify costs, impacts, and an implementation plan associated with changes in school start times for Lexington students. 11 Identify funds and/or strategies necessary to develop a multi-year comprehensive Lexington Public Schools Strategic Plan for the district,to include equity and master planning. 11 Identify funds and/or strategies to continue the research and implementation of graduation requirements. 14� Identify funds and/or strategies to create an elementary and middle school redistricting plan. 15� Continue the Town's joint effort onmental health.

These past increases have had a direct impact on the School Department's operating budget each year to accommodate these new students and maintain the level of programming offered by Lexington Public Schools. To better understand future enrollment trends,five-year enrollment is projected for elementary, middle,and high school, incorporating new enrollments from October 1, 2018. For the purposes of this budget, a version of the Cohort Survival Method is used,which isone ofmultiple models the district runs each year. |nthis version,future kindergarten enrollments are estimated using the five-year average ofprevious kindergarten enrollment.Average grade-to-grade progression rates are then applied to the rest of the grades. Similar one-year school-level projections are used to plan staffing and other resource allocations for each specific school. Although enrollment projections can offer insight about the direction of future enrollment trends,they should not be viewed strictly as a point estimate, as this does not accurately acknowledge the uncertainty associated with projections. In recognition of this reality, gO% confidence intervals are produced for all enrollment projections. Correct interpretation of such intervals isthat there is gO%chance that the confidence interval contains the true value offuture enrollment. Another important consideration is a review of prior Lexington Public School enrollments and projections suggests thatfuture elementary enrollment may be underestimated with this model. Both this and the inherent uncertainty of enrollments should be kept in mind while planning for future school years. One way flexibility is incorporated into the budget is by having unallocated reserve full-time equivalent positions (FTEs) for both general education and special education. The proposed budget includes reserve of3.O FTE professional positions for General Education,a reserve of 3.0 FTE professional positions for Special Education,and a reserve of 1.6 FTE paraprofessional positions for Special Education. Additionally this budget recommends an increase of 5.5 FTE professional positions to Lexington High School where FY 2020 enrollment growth is anticipated to beapproximately 85 students (+/ 30)� FfZOZOTown Manager's Preliminary Recommended Budget OkFinancing Plan January Z0, ZO19 111 12 Program: Education 1100 Lexington Public Schools ------------------------------Town-- `L exington, MA Elementary School Enrollment: History and Forecast for FY 2020 to FY 2024(CSM) 38M –±1--Ly2-1 –Larn!Inro"I .......il� . ......... 3700 �WO .... $41,61 v yr ------- ....... 3600 2022-23 $1a216 t 19U_ 3500 AW,24 MO 34 ,235 3300 32W 31,00 3WO 2900 2800 270D 26W do" ?rd, 4L,p 00 , ��o vlol F'ISS ALY'EAP --Vementary (AvgY) 1,Halory --Vemptary (AvSK) Forcecast 11 1 --Venwmofy(Avg X)Lom�r NOth Uerwntwy (Avg K� Upper 90th Middle School Enrollment: History and Forecast for FY 2020 to FY 2024(CSM) 2150 2050FoU rW IL 102940 Leo �s 7 ..............

The method is based on afive-step cycle of self-assessment, goal-setting, implementation, and formative and summative evaluations. An educator's performance is measured against a possible four (4) standards, 41 indicators, and 21 elements. Superintendents are required to submit one measurable professional practice goal, one measurable student learning goal, and two district goals developed collaboratively with school committee members.The school committee is not required to evaluate the superintendent on all 62 indicators and elements� instead, superintendents and school committee members are encouraged to work together to identify which standards, indicators, and elements they will use in the superintendent's annual evaluation. In 2012, the Massachusetts Association of School Committee (MA5C) developed a Superintendent Evaluation Guide to show how the superintendent and school committee could work together to create goals that inform the superintendent evaluation process. "The first step of the five-step cycle is to review the entire system and begin a process for the superintendent This includes having the school committee and superintendent come to agreement around the standards, rubrics, evidence of performance, and goals built around the state standards as well as personal, professional goals." The four (4) goals identified on the following pages are aligned to the MA QE5E standards and indicators and reflect our consolidated priorities.The goals, strategies,timeline, and evidence provide a rich source of data that will inform the superintendent's annual evaluation. Our mutual goals reflect our deep commitment to working collaboratively and in the best interests of the young people we serve. The framework that follows represents a blueprint for the collective efforts of many in the district, and we wish to extend our heartfelt appreciation tothe educators who work tirelessly onbehalf ofour children. Professional Practice Goal #1- Community Outreach Goal #2: By June 2029, the superintendent will meet with 200% of identified stakeholders to develop an understanding of the experiences, beliefs, attitudes, and values that shape the Lexington school community. Self-Assessment/Reflection On July 1, 2018, | was appointed the new Superintendent ofSchools in Lexington. Since then, | have worked to learn as much as possible about all Town stakeholders, including those affiliated with both the municipality and our schools. As the new leader of Lexington Public Schools, there is nothing more important than hearing the perspectives and understanding the viewpoints of all our constituents; hence, this professional practice goal focused on community outreach. It takes little effort to organize entry meetings with stakeholders, but actively listening to one's school community and developing plans to address the consistent themes and patterns heard takes time. 5|ovv|y, | have begun to learn more about the hopes and dreams of our students, parents, teachers, administrators, and Town leaders. School committee members and others have offered their advice on people with whom | should speak, and my community outreach grows. In the coming days,weeks, and months, | hope to establish a culture of mutual respect and trust that is necessary to serve all children well.The first step in creating FfZOZOTown Manager's Preliminary Recommended Budget OkFinancing Plan January Z0, ZO19 III 15 Program: Education 1100 Lexington Public Sch lof Lexington, MA a respectful culture and climate and forging a pathway to the future is to reach out to a diverse group of constituents in the community. To lead effectively, | must be able to answer questions such as: What are the experiences, beliefs, attitudes, and values that shape our school community? Given the competing demands and the often inconsistent nature of educational systems, how can we establish a sense of alignment, coherence, and unity? What are the problems to be solved and what are the hopes and dreams to be realized? A "community outreach" professional practice goal will help the superintendent gain an intimate understanding of the community and the ability to work collaboratively with the school communityto preserve what works in Lexington,to problem-solveand refinethose aspects ofour work that need attention, and to create new possibilities that ultimately will better serve our students.

Self-Assessment/Reflection FfZOZOTown Manager's Preliminary Recommended Budget OkFinancing Plan January Z0, ZO19 III 16 Program: Education 1100 Lexington Public Sch l In the fall of 2018,the Superintendent and LPS Administrators'Council developed a 37-pageposition paper called, "Qiversit& Equity,and Inclusion:Our Call to Action."The purpose of the report was to engage the Lexington school community in our collaborative effort to problem-solve, address, and monitor progress toward creating an inclusive and equitable environment for all. "Our Call to Action" is an enormous undertaking, and the diversity, equity, and inclusion ("DEI") efforts described in the body of the paper could be considered a comprehensive strategic plan all its own. Inclusion is a topic that is at the core of our"DEI" effort, which is why we chose to make it the basis of our student learning goal. Shortly after the superintendent's arrival on July 1, 201EL parents of children in the Developmental Learning Program (DLP)expressed concern that the time their children are included in the general educational setting is decreasing, not increasing. They cited data to underscore their belief that while inclusive practices are expanding statewide, children entering the elementary DLP program in Lexington tend to spend less time with their peers in the general education setting than they did inpre-kindergaMLen. Researchers Thomas Hehir, Laura Schifter(2012), and others have written about the academic and social benefits of inclusion for all. Moreover, in the research 5chifter conducted in Massachusetts, "the results showed that the probabilitythat a student with a high-incidence disability(such as a learning disability)in a full inclusion placement graduated on time was about 84 percent, whereas an otherwise similar student in a substantially separate placement had aprobability of43percent" Our philosophy is that inclusion benefits all students. Children should begin in the general education setting and move to a more restrictive environment only when necessary. We also believe that our profession must rethink disciplinary practices by ensuring that if punished, students are still learning. Far too often in education, we suspend students for skipping school, which most recognize as a counter-intuitive practice. Instead, we should increase classroom management and training opportunities for educators and administrators, adopt positive interventions and approaches, and implement restorative practices designed to educate students to right their wrongs and learn from their mistakes. Although our overall suspension rates are relatively |ovv (a total of approximately 60 suspensions at LHS for the entire 2016-2017 school year), there is a significant gap between students ofcolor and students with special needs compared to their counterparts, which mirrors state and national trends. In 2016-2017, African American/Black students were a little more than four times more likely than White students to have one or more suspensions, and students with disabilities were just over two and a half times more likely to have one or more suspensions. While a 20%increase in inclusive practices may be an ambitious goal,we hope to make progress toward increasing inclusive practices in two ways: (1) by increasing the time students in the DLP program are included in the general educadona| setting,� and (2) by decreasing the number of disproportionate suspensions for students with special needs and for students ofcolor(thereb& increasing time on |earning).

Self-Assessment/Reflection Seneca,the Younger,once said, "if one does not know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favorable." No words could capture more eloquently the need for a thoughtful and purposeful plan than those of the great Roman philosopher. It is interesting that some find the planning process a colossal waste of time, energy, and effort, arguing that more effort should go into the work rather than the planning. While these naysayers have a point about the need for an organization to focus on the work at hand, we need only examine what happens in the absence of plan to understand the benefits. When decisions are made without context, we waste precious resources. Tension mounts as individuals make up their own rules in the absence of good road map. Leaders earn criticism for making foolish decisions in a vacuum, one after another, with no insight into how a particular choice fits into larger vision in the broader context. As it turns out, plans do matter. And not just any sort of plan, but meaningful, cohesive, integrated plans linked together through a common purpose, a shared vision, and athoughtfu| process. In Lexington, no strategic plan— or for that matter master facilities plan—exists, although it appears that there have been previous attempts to create one. For example, the district website still links tothe "LP5 Core Values" that "represent the essential and enduring commitments of the Lexington Public School community." The stated core values include (1) academic exce||ence,� (2) respectful and caring relationships; and (3)aculture ofreflection, conversation, collaboration, and commitment to continuous improvement." Two hyperlinks follow the statement above: one labeled "district goals" and the other labeled, "system goals." One statement under "district goals," underscores the urgent need to address rapid increases in enrollment.The "system goals" link includes school improvement plans,the former superintendent's goals, and a mission and vision statement from March 2013. There is little evidence of the utilization of the March 2013 document, which contains interesting ideas related to creativity, perseverance, intelligence, and globalization.

School Committee & Superintendent Goal #4- Promoting Student Learning, Engagement, and Well-Being in our Schools Goal#4: BySeptember 2D29, develop a thoughtful, integrated, and cohesive SEL Plan that links to the strategic plan and clearly articulates the district's vision and sb-ategyforensuring the social and emotional well-being of all Lexington students. Self-Assessment/Reflection When the Lexington superintendent interviewed for her position, the job description emphasized students'Social and Emotional Learning.At the time,she asked how the Lexington school community defines Social and Emotional Learning(SEL),and she learned that there was an opportunity for further growth in this area. During her interview, she was asked to speak to her vision for LP5and based on the research she conducted, she created a preferred future based on balance: "For every child, a hungry mind and a happy heaML." She also developed a possible framework for a strategic plan, embedding the philosophical tenets of Socrates into an integrated structure for social and emotional learning. "Social and emotional learning" has been a buzzword that has captured the interest of cities and towns across Massachusetts and our nation inrecent years. Asstudent needs became more complex and resources diminish, various organizations (e.g., the MA Association of School Superintendents and the MA Association of School Committees) have adopted SEL resolutions, encouraging administrators, educators, legislators, and elected officials to prioritize the health and well-being of our children. In her role asthe former President of MASS, the superintendent highlighted the potential unintended consequences of an overemphasis on SEL and the need for a thoughtful approach in order to help students learn the skills necessary to thrive in a global world and become the people they wish tobe. A holistic approach to education is a concept as old as time. Plato wrote about the importance of social and emotional learning in The Republic and organizations like Collaborative for Academic, Social and Emotional Learning (CA5EL) suggest that SEL comprises five core competencies, including (1) self-management; (2) se|f- avvareness,� (3) social avvareness,� (4) relationship ski||s,� and (5) responsible decision-making. While this may not be the definition of SEL we choose for Lexington, at the very least it provides a starting point for a discussion about the types ofrelational skills vvehope tocultivate. Recently, the school committee and the superintendent engaged in a conversation about "unfinished business" and what problems we hoped to resolve through initiatives that began last year. Ultimately, we endeavored to understand what we mean here in Lexington when we say, "social and emotional learning." After some healthy discussion and debate, we realized that SEL efforts of the past were designed to address what Marc Brackett, FfZOZOTown Manager's Preliminary Recommended Budget OkFinancing Plan January Z0, ZO19 111 - 20 Program: Education 1100 Lexington Public Sch lof Lexington, MA Ph.Q, the Founding Director ofthe Yale Center for Emotional |nteUigence, caUsthe three mostcommon student descriptions oftheir school experience: (1)stress, (2)boredom,�and(3)tiredness. Interestingly,these are common concerns that Lexington students consistently express through the Youth Risk Behavior Survey data.We recognize that in education and elsewhere human beings tend to gravitate toward the negative as a first step toward gaining a dearer understanding of what problem we are trying to solve. We decided to capture our preferred future or educational vision for students with three positive words: student learning, engagement, and well-being.

Ms. Barry, Chair; Mr. Pato; Mr. Lucente; and Ms. Hai were present as well as Ms. Axtell, acting 'Town Manager-, and Ms. Siebert, Recording Secretary. 'The purpose for the meeting is to interview three finalists for the open position of Town Manager. Ms. Ciccolo was recused because she has an open contract with one of the candidates. Before beginning the interviews, Ms. Barry expressed the sympathies of the Board for the passing of long.-time Lexington pediatrician, Dr. Daniel Palant. A moment of silence was observed in his honor. Ms. Barry introduced Alan Gould from MRI Consultants who provided some background for the Town Manager search process: The search began about three months ago. MRI received 44 resumes from candidates from 15 states, including 26 candidates from Massachusetts. Of the initial 44, 17 candidates were invited to submit essay answers in response to questions MRI developed from its interviews with Town staff, board and committee members, and residents. Fifteen candidates moved forward to the Screening Committee stage. Six candidates were selected to be interviewed by the Screening Committee, although one withdrew to accept another job offer. Of the initial 44, 7 were women and 5 of the 15 candidates who advanced to the Screening Committee stage were women. Mr. Gould said these percentages are fairly typical of advanced candidate pools. Mr. Gould likened today's finalist process to a conversation. Mr. Gould listed certain questions that cannot be introduced, such as age, sexual preference or orientation, ethnicity, religion, political affiliation, family, or health. He encouraged Board members to ask follow up questions on relevant topics Ms. Barry reported that each Selectmen had developed his/her own questions and these had not been previewed by the Board as a whole. Ms. Barry then expressed the Board's deep appreciation for the tireless efforts of the 11.-member Screening Committee: former Selectmen Peter Kelley, Chair; current Selectmen Mr. Lucente and Ms. Hai; former AssistantTown Manager Linda Vine; Kate Colburn, School Committee; Bob Creech, Planning Board; Rick DeAngelis, Economic Development Advisory Committee; MelanieThompson, Diversity AdvisoryTask Force; Melanie Lin, 'Town Meeting Member; Vineeta Kumar, 'Town Meeting Member; Tom Colatosti, representing the business community; plus two liaisons: Eric Michelson, Appropriation Committee; and Charles Lamb, Capital Expenditures.

Ms. Barry thanked Mt. Lombardi and called a 5--minute recess at 6:15 p.m. 'The Board reconvened at 6:20 p.m. James Mallo A Ms. Barry welcomed Mr. Malloy on behalf of the Board and stated that the approximately one.- hour interview would consist of several rounds of questions posed in turn by the four Selectman. The questions were authored by the Board members and have been tailored to the individual candidate. Topics covered included: roles and responsibilities, collective bargaining, economic development, sustainability, collaboration, changing demographics, and diversity, Other Post Employment Benefit(OPER), communication channels, and challenges seen. Ms. Barry thanked Mr. Malloy and called a recess at 7:40 p.m. 'The meeting was called back to order at 8:01 p.m. Deliberation and Potential Vote to Select the NewTown MqngLer Following a discussion reviewing the three candidates' answers, the Board came to consensus to offer the position ofTown Manager to;lames ,l.

He will send a conditional offer to Mr. Malloy first thing in the morning. Ms. Barry again expressed the Board's gratitude to the Steering Committee for its efforts. Ad'ourn L— Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board of Selection voted 4-0 to adjourn at 8:38 p.m. A to record; Attest: Kim Siebert Recording Secretary October 1, 2018 Page 1 of 9 SELECTMEN'S MEETING Monday, October 1, 2018 A meeting of the Lexington Board of Selectmen was called to order at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, October 1, 2018 in the Selectmen's Meeting Room of the 'Town Office Building. Ms. Barry, Chair; Mr. Pato; Mr. Lucente; and Ms. Hai were present as well as Mr. Malloy, 'Town Manager; Ms. Axtell, Assistant'Town Manager; and Ms. Siebert, Recording Secretary. Selectman Ciccolo was absent. Flu Shot Clinic Aysia Clunes, Human Services Nurse provided information about upcoming flu vaccination programs to be held in town; David Neylon, Public Health Nurse, administered flu shots to several Selectmen andTown staff. Ms. Grunes reported that last year, Lexington's flu vaccination programs provided shots to over 2000 residents, staff, and first responders. All vaccines are provided free of charge and on a first come/first served basis; residents with health insurance are asked to bring their insurance cards with them so that the 'Town can be reimbursed to the greatest extent possible. Ms. Barry, Mr. Pato, Ms. Hai and Mr. Malloy then received their flu shots. Selectman Concerns and Liaison RU.oris Mr. Lucente said an initial meeting was held regarding potential shared use of to-be-built athletic fields at Minuteman High School. More stakeholder meetings will take place over the coming months. Mr. Pato reported that two large, successful events took place in Lexington on Saturday, September 29, 2018: the 25th anniversary of the Minuteman Commuter Bikeway and the Sustainability Fair at the high school. Mr. Pato said that on Friday, October 5, 2018 at 8 a.m. in the Hudson Room in the Cary Memorial Building, the Residential Exemption Policy Study Committee will host a roundtable discussion with economists and policymakers from the private sector to talk about residential property tax exemptions and means testing. Ms. Hai reported that on Friday, October 5, 2018 at 9:15 a.m. in the large meeting room at the Cary Library, 1874 Massachusetts Avenue, a League of Women Voters First Friday program will be held with new Planning Director, David Kucharsky and Assistant'Town Manager Carol Kowalski who will speak about the new Comprehensive Plan. Town MaMJ&eort Mr. Malloy thanked the Board for naming him to the position ofTown Manager and expressed gratitude to Assistant'Town Manager Kelly Axtell, who served as the ActingTown Manager in the interim. Mr. Malloy reported there had been a power outage in the town center on Friday, September 28, 2018 but all systems were checked and power was restored the same day. October 1, 2018 Page 2 of 9 Mr. Malloy reported that the Fire administrative staff has moved to the temporary swing station at 173 Bedford Street. The anticipated move date for equipment and firefighting staff is Thursday, October 4, 2018, although this stage of relocation may be gradual. rin New owners Rick Cagnina and ,lim Spinelli request a Class 11 License for RJ Auto Engineering d/b/a Auto Engineering located at 436 Marrett Road. This License will replace the 2018 license previously issued to Autobahn East. All application requirements have been fulfilled. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board of Selectmen voted 4-0 to approve a Class 11 License for R. J. AutoEngineering d.b.a. Auto Engineering, 436 Marrett Road. Aparove and Sign Letter to National Grid Ms. Barry recused herself from this item as her husband is police officer employed by theTown of Lexington who could potentially benefit from additional police details as a consequence of the Board's vote. Mr. Pato, as senior member, assumed the role of Chair. Mr. Pato turned the Board's attention to a letter drafted to the President of National Grid and the President of the United Steelworkers, District 4, Local 12003. The letter asks both parties to reach a speedy conclusion of their contract negotiations. Mr. Lucente said the letter accurately reflects the Board's consensus at the last meeting and he is happy to sign it. Ms. Hai concurred. Ryan Grant, 22 Butler Avenue, Local 12003 member, asked if the letter addresses a non.- emergency work stoppage as requested by the union. Mr. Pato said that the letter focuses solely on quick resolution. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board voted 3-0 to approve and sign the letter as presented. Public Hearing I^Y1� �Jater and Sewer Rates Ms. Barry opened the Public Hearing at 7:18 p.m. Carolyn Kosnoff, AssistantTown Manager for Finance, provided an overview of the three separate water/sewer rate meetings that will culminate in a rate approval vote by Board on October 15, 2018. 'The Finance is recommending a 1.7%-l.8% increase is now recommended, depending on the usage tier. For waste water, an 8.7% increase is recommended for all tiers. Combined, the recommended rate increase is 6.2%.-6.4%. For the averageTier 2 user(120 Hundred Cubic Feet), 6.3% the increase would be $96.40. 'Tier I households would increase by $33.50 andTier 3 users would increase by $274.40. Ms. Kosnoff said that the 10--year combined rate average increase is 2.4% and noted that the proposed FYI 9 rates are above that average. The Finance department also recommends an increase to the flat sewer rate for customers on the wastewater system who are not MWRQ water customers. Currently, the flat rate is set at $94.24 annually. The proposed rate is based on an 80HCF usage, and translate to an annual sewer bill of $54&W October 1, 2018 Page 3 of 9 The Finance department also recommended that the current message on the water bills be changed to the following: Charges are in HCF: 100 Cubic Feet which is equal to approximately 748 gallons. Water is our most precious resource, please remember to conserve where you can. Every gallon we can save today is one more gallon for the future. For more information on water conservation please visit: httns://www.e.a. �� y/watersense hitns://www.e. Lucente said he approved of the water conservation message. About the flat rate, he asked how many accounts there are of this type and how the recommended rate increase would affect metered accounts. Ms. Kosnoff said there are only about a dozen flat rate users so the material impact to other customers would be minimal. The change is geared more toward achieving equity than providing an offset. Mr. Lucente believed the 6.3%rate increase is substantial. However, he noted that water customers can control usage and the increase may prompt more attention to conservation. Mr. Pato agreed with the flat rate increase proposal but noted that it might come as a shock to those it affects. Ms. Barry said that although the flat sewer rate will hit only a few households, the increase may difficult to absorb, depending on the demographic. Ms. Barry said that the 6.3% increased rate seems high; she asked that the Finance department review the recommendation and emphasized that Town staff and Board members should be aware of the impact®Prate increases on the citizens. Ms. Barry asked if other communities have asked the MWRQ to analyze how it sets rates and asked Ms. Kosnoff to see if Water Superintendent Ralph Pecora can look into the matter. Ms. Hai asked if a targeted outreach can be done to alert the flat rate customers to rate change. Ms. Hai believes census data can be used to calculate per person usage based on the number of residents in a home. Seeing no audience members wishing to speak, Ms. Barry closed the Public Hearing at 7:36 p.m. U relate Road Scenic—B— wa Cgrttee Richard tamale, Planning Board Chair/Selectmen's representative to the Scenic Byway Committee, reported that Battle Road is a state designated scenic byway running through Arlington, Lexington, Lincoln, and Concord and the Minuteman Park. Lexington's section of the byway includes the entirety of Massachusetts Avenue to Route 2A, ending at the Lincoln town line. There are also two spur roads: Massachusetts Avenue to Bedford Street and Hancock Street, ending at the Hancock.-Clark House; and off Woods Street, along Old Massachusetts Avenue, ending at Route 2A. Mr. Canale reported that a previous byway committee received a grant from the Federal Highway Administration plus a 20% match from the Massachusetts Department of Transportation in order to formulate a corridor management plan. The plan has been completed October 1, 2018 Page 4 of 9 but remains to be implemented through a Memorandum of Agreement between the four towns and the Park. Mr. Canale presented facsimiles of proposed byway signage for the Selectmen's review. He noted that the word "scenic" has been dropped from the official name. Mr. Canale reported that he is currently Lexington's only Byway Committee representative (of a possible three) now that the second citizen has dropped out and a new staff member has not been named to replace former Planning Director Aaron Henry. He suggested that a staff member from the Economic Development Office be considered for that role. Ms. Barry asked whether the website will be mobile-device friendly and whether it would be translated into other languages. She asked that a tab be added to the homepage, with a title such as "Shop, Eat, Stay." Ms. Barry said that funding for the initiative within the T'own's FY20 budget should be discussed. Mr. Canale said that the Town has committed to hosting the website. Every year, a continuing funding commitment will be requested. Mr. Lucente asked what the launch date of the website will be. Mr. Canale said the goal is for the launch to take place by the end of October. Mr. Pato asked Mr. Canale to send the website address to the Board so members can provide feedback. Ms. Hai said that several different websites come up when searching online for the Battle Green Byway so some work should be done to distinguish the correct URL from others. Ms. Hai also asked Mr. Canale to coordinate with the Visitors Center staff and Tourism Committee. Dawn McKenna, Chair of the Tourism Committee, offered Visitors Center resources in the form of recent photographs and asked that it be included on the website's interactive map and asked that the Byway Committee coordinate with the Visitors Center website effort. Textile CgIlection A�,reernent L_ David Pinsonnault, DPW Director; Robert Beaudoin, Environmental Services Superintendent; and Steve Lisauskas, Waste Zero, asked the Board to approve the proposed textile collection program that was first presented to the Board in June 2018. Collected materials would include clothing, including coats,jackets, hats and shoes; leather goods;jewelry; purses and backpacks; blankets, quilts, sleeping bags, cushions, and pillows; drapes and curtains; toys; mirrors; tools; silverware, dishes, pots and pans, cups and glasses. Mr. Lisauskas said that, nationally, 85% of textiles are discarded; in Massachusetts, textiles make up I I% of the waste stream; 95% of this material can be recycled or reused but currently only 15% is reclaimed. Mr. Pato said the program seems like a great way to divert materials from the waste stream and that curbside pick-up increases overall diversion. He noted there are other existing textile drop.- off sites which contribute to fundraising efforts for Goodwill and the Schools. Residents can continue to drop their materials off at these locations if they prefer. October 1, 2018 Page 5 of 9 Ms. Barry asked how many vans would serve Lexington and if it would be clear that the vans are From Simple Recycling. Mr. Lisauskas said there would be two vans per day, five days a week, which would take about 3 hours each day to make the collection; they would be clearly marked. Ms. Barry asked about public education. Mr. Pinsonnault said a mailing would go out prior to the launch date and information would be posted on the Town website. Ms. Barry and Ms. Hai asked Mr. Pinsonnault and Mr. Beaudoin to reach out to the school population to announce the program and to alert the parent-teacher organizations about a potential impact to their textile collection fundraising effort. Ms. Hai emphasized the importance of a joint effort public education campaign to promote the service. Bob Pressman, 22 Locust Avenue, asked about the potential impact on Goodwill and if the organization has been notified. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board of Selectmen voted 4-0 to authorize the Town Manager to enter into a textile collection agreement with Simple Recycling to commence on a date mutually agreeable to both parties. A Water 2Erove Burlin Ston 6 David Pinsonnault, DPW Director; and Ralph Pecora, Water and Sewer Superintendent provided clarifications about to a previously presented water agreement proposal with the Town of Burlington. Areas of clarification included telemetry measuring; metering; shared costs; annual agreement review; and MWRQ fees. Mr. Pinsonnault said that pressure readings during previous times when Lexington has provided Burlington with water show that pressure has been well above the minimum range and there would be no impact to Lexington residents' water pressure with this agreement. Compared to the similar agreement with the Town of Bedford, Burlington would draw fewer gallons on fewer days of the year. Ms. Hai, Ms. Barry, and Mr. Pato said they are now comfortable with the provisions of the agreement. Mr. Pato said that, analyzing the water pressure data, he has determined that there is a distinct I% reduction in pressure when Burlington is drawing water but this is still well within the range required. Mr. Lucente asked that the pressure be monitored consistently when Burlington is drawing water so that the data can be captured and used in the yearly contract review. He asked that the annual contract review come before the Board of Selectmen. Mr. Lucente's overwhelming concern is cost, he wants Lexington to be a helpful neighbor to Burlington but does not want any additional burden on Lexington residents, especially with water rates going up. ,John Carney, 3 McKeever Drive, said he sees no clear benefit to agreeing to this contract and Feels it a mistake for the Board to approve it without understanding if there are hidden costs. October 1, 2018 Page 6 of 9 Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board of Selectmen voted 4-0 to approve the Burlington Water Agreement as presented and to authorize theTown Manager to sign said agreement. Review and Discuss Potential 201 �Fall S.�eciql 'T'own_Meefi�n �,_)Karrant Articles The warrant must be voted at the next Selectmen's meeting on October 15, 2018. No Citizen's Petitions were received by the deadline. 0 Appropriate for Hosmer House Reuse Study Ms. Axtell asked for more information on this initiative, especially with the new Police Station moving forward. Mr. Lucente said he believes the scope should be broad and include a possible removal to another location as well as what the building would be used for. Mr. Pato and Ms. Barry agreed with taking a broader view. Ms. Hai said the Hosmer House is a piece of the Police Station puzzle and suggested it could become part of a largerTown building master plan. She recommended that the article wording allow flexibility. Mr. Lucente recommended a meeting with the Historic Districts Commission to understand whether moving the building would be allowed. Ms. Barry said she would reach out to the HDC to set up a joint meeting before Special Town Meeting. Bob Pressman, 22 Locust Street, asked if the concept is off the table to include the Hosmer House as part of the Police Station project. Dawn McKenna, Precinct 6Town Meeting Member, said the Hosmer House had previously been discussed extensively atTown Meeting, at which time the prohibition against moving the structure off site was emphasized. 0 Appropriate for Crematorium Schematic Design Mr. Pato proposed appropriating funds at Special Town Meeting to be contingent upon approval of recommendations from the Ad Hoc Crematorium Study Group. Taking this step would allow the Westview Cemetery operational building not to be delayed. Ms. Barry asked how the appropriation amount could be determined. Ms. Hai clarified thatTown Meeting would be allowing funds to be available for schematic design only if the Ad Hoc Crematorium Study Group recommends a combined facility and if the Selectmen approve that recommendation. If the study group does not recommend a combined facility, the funds would not be released. An alternative would be to hold a second Special Town Meeting around the time of the Annual Town Meeting so that the operational facility and the crematory projects can be aligned. Mr. Pato noted that the Westview operational building would be funded with cemetery fees but he is unsure how the crematorium would be funded. Mr. Lucente said a discussion at Special Town Meeting will provide direction which will only happen if the article stays on the warrant. October 1, 2018 Page 7 of 9 Ms. Hai asked what it would happen ifTown Meeting declines to fund the crematorium schematic design this November. Mr. Pato said that outcome would leave the issue where it now stands but the discussion would be instructive. Dawn McKenna, Precinct 6 'Town Meeting member, said that Westview has been discussed for some time and it was agreed that the building needs upgrading, although there has been a lack of unanimity about what that entails. She believes the crematorium concept further confuses the subject. Mr. Malloy said, from what he understands, the two projects should be separated. He believes the operational facility should move forward while the study group delves in to the questions surrounding the crematorium. Mr. Malloy believes a longer community conversation about a crematorium is needed; given the proximity of other crematoria that service the region, the goal of having a Lexington facility is unclear. Mr. Lucente said that if that projects are separated, it would mean than there would be more than one building. He believes separating the two projects points the study group in a certain direction, which was intended to be left open-ended. If the projects are separated, the Westview operational building construction funding might as well go ahead this fall. Ms. Barry called a brief recess until 9:55 p.m. Review Board of Selectmen The Board reviewed proposed Selectmen's Meetings, including FY 19 budget, Summits, Special Town Meeting and Annual 'Town Meeting dates. Members agreed that Executive Sessions should take place before Regular Session meetings as often as possible. Ms. Barry posed the question of starting the meetings at 6:30 p.m. instead of 7:00 p.m. Mr. Lucente said the time should remain 7 p.m. Mr. Pato said he is willing to consider a 6:30 p.m. start but, in that case, asked to schedule housekeeping items only in the first half hour. Ms. Hai said an earlier start time would put a burden on citizens who want to participate. Discuss P electmen's Seat Mr. Barry reported that the 'Town Clerk has received Selectman Ciccolo's letter of resignation, effective December 31, 2018. Because December 31 is less than 100 days before the 'Town Election date, a Special Election would not take place. Ms. Ciccolo's seat would be vacant from December 31, 2018 until March 5, 2019. Ms. Ciccolo stated in her letter that she would amend her resignation date if the Board felt strongly about filling the seat by Special Election, however Ms. Barry said a minimum of 64 days is required between a resignation date and a Special Election. If Ms. Ciccolo's resignation was effective today, the Special Election would not take place until early December. Mr. Lucente, Mr. Pato, and Ms. Hai agreed that keeping the resignation date as submitted makes the most sense. Ms. Barry said she would prefer not to have an empty seat but the timing is difficult. October 1, 2018 Page 8 of 9 There is one year remaining on Ms. Ciccolo's term. 'Therefore, the March 2019Town election would field I candidate for one year to fulfil the term; and 2 candidates for 2 three.-year terms.

Selectman Concerns and Liaison Reports Mr. Pato reported that the School Master Plan Committee met on Friday, October 12, 2018 and reviewed the process for submitting Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) statement of interest letters, specifically with regard to Lexington High School. Additionally, the Committee looked at enrollment projections and the methodologies being used, and discussed space needs based on an analysis of the educational program.

Ms. Barry thanked Mr. Pato and Mr. Lucente for delivering remarks on behalf of the Board at the groundbreaking for the Lexington Children's Place and the ribbon-cutting at Clarke Middle School. A ribbon-cutting ceremony is also scheduled for the Diamond Middle School on October 23. 2018 at 3:30 p.m. at which Ms. Barry will deliver remarks. Ms. Hai reminded the community that the Selectmen's office is accepting applications until midnight tonight for the ad hoc Special Pen-nit Residential Zoning Bylaw Amendment Committee. Grant of Location for Lincoln Street for Eversource Katie Flaherty and Kelly Korea, from Eversource Energy, requested Selectmen approval to replace an underground circuit on Lincoln Street.

Community�Choice�Elec�tricityA�, ge�mtion�Udqte Mark Sandeen, Sustainable Lexington; Paul Grommer, CEO Pelegrine Energy/Community Choice broker; John Shortsleeve, Bay State Energy; Marlana Patton, Lexington Program Manager presented details of a proposed energy procurement contract to replace one that is expiring. Mr. Shortsleeve asked the Board to authorize the 'Town Manager to enter in to the new contract on the day the bids come due. Ms. Barry stated that since Lexington initiated the Municipal Aggregation Community Choice Program a year and a half ago, over 10,000 participating Lexington customers have realized $23M in savings compared to the basic Eversource electricity rate. Mr. Shortsleeve reported that the program has also provided 100% green electricity at a lower cost and, due to using green energy, Lexington has achieved a 20-30% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Ms. Patton said the transition to the new contract will be seamless; participants will see a new supplier name and a new rate on their electricity bill. Any active accounts will be automatically enrolled in the same program option it currently has. Anyone who opted out of the program will remain opted out unless they call to enroll. The 'Town is required to issue an announcement about these changes through the local media and the 'Town website, however Ms. Patton recommended broader outreach to ensure community awareness. Mr. Shortleeve stated that about 15% of homes and roughly half of the businesses in Lexington do not participate at this point. Mr. Lucente said he would like a stronger outreach effort to encourage people to join who may have been hesitant the first time around. Mr. Pato suggested reaching out specifically to those that opted out; a number of residents have October 15, 2018 Page 3 of 13 told him that they initially misunderstood the program and others mistakenly assumed the Town's participation in Community Choice was the reason their electricity bills increased. Ms. Barry agreed that a larger outreach effort was warranted and believes it should clarify that the new supplier is an authorized provider. Ms. Ciccolo asked if outreach could be done to the business community to encourage greater participation, perhaps through the Chamber of Commerce. Ms. Hai added it is important to help people understand how to opt in. David Kanter, Precinct 7Town Meeting Member, asked if a change in program option is available throughout the contract period and on what information the projected Eversource rate is based. Mr. Shortsleeve replied that changing program options is always possible and the rate projection was determined through market observation. Beth Davenport, Mothers Out Front Lexington, reported that her organization wholeheartedly supports continuing the Community Choice Aggregation program. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board voted 5­0 to authorize theTown Manager to execute an aggregation supply agreement for an up to 24--month period if the price is below the estimated price of$0.12 per KwH for the ensuing 12--month period. Preliminary_EY�(� (�-f^YZ(�24 C;ar�ta� Im�lrrovement Pian Carolyn Kosnoff, AssistantTown Manager for Finance, presented a preliminary summary of the Town's FY202O.-FY2024 capital improvement plan for initial review. 'The full list of projects was submitted by department managers; the majority have been reviewed by staff and theTown Manager. The capital projects will be discussed in further detail during the Selectmen's department budget meetings in November. 'The Capital Expenditures Committee will also vet the projects in order to make recommendations. Briefly described highlighted projects include: • Police Indoor/Outdoor Firing Range Schematic Design, Hartwell Avenue (Public Safety) $125,000 in FY 2020 from the levy: Envisioned as a potential regional asset. • Lexington Police Station Rebuild (Public Facilities): $23,386,909 in FY 2020 from the levy. Design funds appropriated Annual 'Town Meeting 2018. A debt exclusion referendum expected for this project. Warrant article seeking approval for construction funds anticipated Annual 'Town Meeting 2019. • Lexington High School Short-term Capacity (Public Facilities) $152,500 in FY2021 from the levy: School Committee and staff have revised project from $1M Science Lab expansion project to smaller space modification, made possible by schedule changes. • Lexington High School Field House Track Resurfacing (Public Facilities) $250,000 in • FY2020 from the levy: A newly added project; current indoor track deemed unsafe. The number is a placeholder; Facilities doing a deeper cost analysis. October 15, 2018 Page 4 of 13 • Center Streetscape Improvements (Public Works) $9,273,880 in FY2020 from the levy and Community Preservation. • Automatic Meter Reading System (Public Works) $5,940,000 in FY2020 from Water/Sewer revenues. • Pump Station Upgrades (Public Works) $700,000 FY2020; $602,000 FY2021; $520,00 FY2022; $50,000 FY2023 from Sewer revenues: The Town has been putting about $800,000/year into pumping station upgrades; the next five years will see a gradual decrease in annual investment due to continued maintenance efforts. • Water Distribution System Improvements (Public Works) $2,200,000 in FY20201 $2,530,000 FY2021; $3,040,000 in FY2022; $2,200,000 in FY2023; $2,200,000 in FY 2024 from State Aid and Water revenues: Water System study recommends replacing I% of the waterlines each year; original allocation of$1.2 upgraded to reflect cost increases that will allow work to continue. • Hill Street New Sidewalk Project (Public Works) $1,500,000 in FY2020 from the levy: Design engineering approved; this estimate is a placeholder. • Intermunicipal Agreement with Minuteman High School (Recreation) $8M in FY2020 from levy, CPA, and Recreation: Another new addition to Capital Plan. A working group was recently formed. • Old Reservoir Bathhouse Renovation (Recreation) $620,000 in FY2020 from Community Preservation funds: Design funds appropriated at Annual Town Meeting 2018; study now complete; renovation planned which requires construction funding. Mr. Lucente said he was not expecting to see the Police Firing Range request listed for FY2020 and he would like more information about what the project entails. He is also surprised that the indoor track has suddenly become urgent. Mr. Pato asked what the life expectancy for the new track surface is and how that coincides with the future high school project. Ms. Barry asked if there would be revenue from the Police Firing Range. Ms. Ciccolo asked what year the construction of the firing range is expected since only design funds are listed. She asked if a working group is discussing regional need for the firing range. Ms. Hai also expressed surprise at the urgency of the indoor track project and noted that the low cost seems indicative of a temporary fix. Mr. Lucente noted the alarming increase in the Automated Meter Reading project estimate, from $2,050,000 to $5,940,000. He asked that a closer look be taken at the return on investment for information about and explanation why increase is so big. Mr. Lucente also expressed concern about the Center Streetscape construction timeline, noting upcoming celebrations and the inevitable inconvenience to Center businesses and patrons if the project goes on for a long time. Mr. Pato wanted to understand why the cost of the Automatic Meter Reader project had pumped so dramatically. He also questioned whether the Water System Distribution project includes improvements for the Grove Street area's recurring water pressure issues. October 15, 2018 Page 5 of 13 Ms. Barry agreed more explanation is warranted for the Automatic Meter Reading cost and noted that the total Capital cost of$70,564,954 for FY20 is daunting. She asked if the partnership with Minuteman High School would include a pickleball court and cricket field, two needs that have been identified by residents. Ms. Kosnoff said inclusion of these amenities is under review. Ms. Ciccolo also asked for infon-nation about the meter project. She believes there will be a lot of community interested in the intermunicipal agreement with Minuteman High School and asked if there is a plan to discuss the project with the broader public. Ms. Ciccolo expressed frustration with the slow pace of the Community Center Expansion project which is not scheduled for design-construction funding until 2022-2024. She asked if there is a way to model the impact of the significant water/sewer projects on the water/sewer rates. Ms. Hai noted that the Water Distribution System project has jumped 50% from last year's projection. The total FY2020 Capital cost was expected to be about $49M, not $70M. She believes a conversation about priorities should take place. David Kanter, Capital Expenditures Vice Chair, said he believes the firing range project is a viable plan to address a regional need. Mr. Kanter said he has serious reservations about the returns on investment associated with the Meter Reading project. He formally requests that this financial report, and any future commissioned reports, be forwarded to the Capital Expenditures Committee as soon as they are available. Mr. Kanter urged theTown to carefully consider its role in how the athletic complex asset would be maintained at Minuteman High School. Bob Pressman, Community Preservation Committee, asked that the affordable housing project on the Leary property not be allowed to languish. He questioned why the entire Center Streetscape appropriation is listed in a single year and noted that the $2.3M for sidewalks in the Center is CPA eligible. Dawn McKenna, 'Tourism Committee Chair, noted that funds for short-term parking and a turnaround in the Depot Square lot, to use during the Visitors Center construction, does not appear on the Capital projects list for FY2020. She asked that it not be overlooked. StorrnwateL�Utilit Utility Dave Pinsonnault, DPW Director; and ,John Livsey, 'T'own Engineer, presented details of the Federal MS4 ston-nwater management requirement. 'The MS4 went into effect on July 1, 2018 and is notably stricter than the previous management plan. Six "Minimum Control Measures" have been carried over to the new plan but are now more defined require more reporting. 'The new pen-nit will impact DPW Engineering and Operations in areas like infrastructure upgrades, prevention, and public education/outreach. Conservation, Facilities, Planning, andTown Building department operations are affected; input will be required from 'Town counsel, Board of Selectmen, andTown Manager. Mr. Livsey would also like to discuss establishing a Ston-nwater Enterprise Fund. Mr. Livsey noted that Lexington geographically occupies land within three river watersheds: the Shawsheen, the Charles, and the Mystic. Each watershed has its own stream management plan and funding allocations are used to implement these plans that include culvert replacement, street October 15, 2018 Page 6 of 13 drain and catch basin maintenance, erosion control, improved filtration systems, pollution prevention including "total maximum daily load" monitoring, and illicit discharge detection and elimination (IDDE). Mr. Livsey said several UM SS Lowell graduate students have become members of Lexington's "Stream Team", assisting with the mapping of 125 miles of piping and 360 outfalls in the water storrnwater system; using graduate students for this work is a cost- and time-saving model other towns have adopted. Mr. Livsey noted, however, that cost projections to comply with the MS4 exceed $2M for annual storrnwater management. He believes it impossible to meet the'T'own's obligations without an additional funding source. Currently, the funds come from the levy. If a Stormwater Enterprise Fund were established from user fees, as it has been in other Massachusetts towns, it could be based on one of several models: a flat, graduated, proportional, or distributed fee, with the possibility of credits for homeowners who install storrnwater management infrastructure. Ms. Hai said she is intrigued by the idea of establishing an Enterprise Fund and with a more equitable distribution of costs but is also cautious about adding another fee for property owners. She said the $2M currently budgeted should not meld into other operating uses without transparency. Ms. Ciccolo asked if contractors have been alerted to the new MS4 regulations and what the requirements mean for how they conduct business. She expressed concern that an Enterprise fee would affect older homes more because they are less able to retrofit infiltration systems. Ms. Barry said she is not thrilled about instituting a new fee but outreach and education about the new requirements will be very important, whether there is a fee or not. Mr. Pato said he is not averse to a new fee but would want to see a reduction in the tax rate if the $2M was no longer needed to fund stormwater management compliance. He is also concerned about the ability of an older homesite to retrofit storrnwater management systems. Mr. Lucente asked what the source of the reported E. Coli bacteria is and if the street salt in treatments is a factor. Mr. Livsey reported that dog waste and cracks in the pipes/antiquated sewage systems are the main sources. TheTown is now required to test storrnwater for conductivity but has not found salinity to be a problem. Mr. Lucente asked how much higher than $2M the cost is expected to rise. Mr. Livsey said there is no way to put a price tag on the increase because here is no known phosphorus control plan and because illicit discharge detection cannot be estimated in advance. However, the pipe lining program, occurring separately, should help identify current issues and avoid future ones. Mr. Lucente believes public education is essential and is a better approach than adding another fee. David Kanter, Capital Expenditures Committee Vice Chair, sees the MS4 as another unfunded mandate but he also interprets the requirements as practical and useful. Mr. Livsey agreed and credited the EPA for improving the regulation by listening to feedback. He reported he would not have to ask for supplemental FY 19 funding to meet the demands of the requirement. October 15, 2018 Page 7 of 13 Center Stre etsca.e Presentation Dave Pinsonnault, DPW Director; and ,John Livsey, 'T'own Engineer, presented details of the 25% design in advance of a Special Town Meeting request for 100% design funding and an Annual Town Meeting 2019 request for construction funds. The Center Streetscape goals are: improved safety; improved accessibility; and renewal of the mid-century modern landscape. Mr. Livsey said that some adjustments to the presentation have been made since the public information meeting held on June 11, 2018. Recent actions are: aTown Manager's Working Group was formed to guide the design team staff, an historic resource assessment was conducted; landscape design and tree inventory management documents are available on the DPW's Engineering webpage, as is the video of the,June 11, 2018 meeting; a meeting was held with the Disability Committee to discuss concerns. Mr. Livsey noted that the updated 25% design is consistent with the recommendations of the ad hoc Center Streetscape Design Committee and the Board of Selectmen. Changes from previous 25% include: removal of Woburn Street intersection; design simplification; removal of fencing, historic medallion s/markers, and street median; and addition of soil amenities for tree health. The updated estimate includes costs for all elements in current 25% design; a design contingency; Police Details; and Construction Inspection and Administration costs that have been verified and defined. Mr. Livsey reported that I or 2 additional full-time oversight staff will be needed for the proj ect. The estimate assumes one phase; costs would increase if the project is phased. The estimates are now expressed in 2020 dollars, based on recent bid pricing and adjusted for inflation. An updated estimate will be developed when the plan progresses to 100%. The total cost of the project, including Police details and construction administration is $9,372,350. If construction funding is approved at Annual Town Meeting 2019, the project would commence in the spring of 2020 and end by fall 2023. Mr. Lucente asked about trees shown in renderings that appear to be in front of the historic clock. He asked whether the Police kiosk on Massachusetts Avenue would be moved to accommodate a planter. Mr. Livsey will look into the trees near the clock. Mr. Pinsonnault reported that Police Chief Corr says the department does not need the kiosk in that location. Mr. Lucente asked that the Center Committee be consulted. Mr. Lucente reported that the current crosswalk paint is slippery when wet. Mr. Livsey reported that a non-slip additive will be used in the new markings. Mr. Lucente asked for more details about the possible phasing. Mr. Livsey said more will be known as the project gets closer to the 100% design threshold. Mr. Pato noted that the cost estimate has been decreased by removing the Woburn Street intersection and increased by adding a portion of Waltham Street that was formerly out of scope. Mr. Livsey added that part of the increase is from pricing in 2020 dollars. October 15, 2018 Page 8 of 13 Ms. Barry expressed concern about the placement of a Massachusetts Avenue crosswalk near Grant Street as shown on the rendering and noted that the dead trees in the Center should be removed whether the project goes forward or not. Ms. Barry asked if crosswalk lighting will be added. Mr. Livsey said crosswalk lighting will provide foot candle illumination appropriate to each location. Ms. Ciccolo asked if a left turn arrow can be added to the pavement at Grant Street. Mr. Livsey reported that there is not quite enough width for a regulation turn lane but he will take another look at creating the necessary width. Ms. Ciccolo asked if shrubs can be added on the other side of Massachusetts Avenue from the Police Station. Mr. Livsey said the Tree Committee will be consulted but he is concerned with the narrow sidewalk width at that location and the salt impact on less hearty vegetation. Ms. Hai asked if the heavily used Massachusetts Avenue crosswalk between the Police Station and the church will be removed. Mr. Livsey said it is on the edge of the project scope and he would look into it. Ms. Hai believes the total project cost is too high, particularly given that the Woburn Street intersection is still unaddressed and there is another $3M for the separate Battle Green Streetscape project. She asked, as the design plays out, for particular attention to cost containment. She further noted that the crosswalk aprons were all recently changed and asked if they can be retained. Mr. Livsey said that since the locations of the aprons will change, these aspects of the streetscape cannot be reused. David Kanter, Capital Expenditures Committee, asked when the construction analysis will be available. Mr. Livsey expects it to be ready in late February. Dawn McKenna, 9 Hancock Street, asked why, given the estimated cost of the project, utility lines are not being moved underground. She asked why the parking sign bases are ornate and why no contingency line item is included in the estimate. Ms. McKenna expressed concern about moving the Police kiosk, given that Town Meeting passed an override that included funding to restore a Police Officer in the Center. Speaking as Chair of the Tourism Committee, Ms. McKenna said she and Mr. Pinsonnault would be meeting to discuss aligning the construction schedules of the Center Streetscape project and the Battle Green Streetscape project. Sue Cusack, Precinct 9Town Meeting Member/Committee on Disability, said the Commission remains concerned about the plan to use brick for some of the sidewalks. The Commission, however, appreciates the thoughtfulness the DPW has demonstrated in discussions of concerns and is happy with the plan to pilot a curb cut design before the entire project moves forward. The Commission continues to believe brick sidewalks maintenance will be costly. t with LibrqU Union Ms. Barry was recused from the item as her husband is an employee of theTown. Ms. Ciccolo chaired in Ms. Barry's absence. October 15, 2018 Page 9 of 13 Mr. Malloy, 'Town Manager, and Ms. Graglia.-K.ostos, Director of Human Resources, verified that the contract negotiated with the Library Union is consistent with the consensus reached by Selectmen in Executive Session discussions. The Library Union has agreed to the terms. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board of Selectmen voted 4-0 to approve and authorize theTown Manager to sign the FY 18-20 Collective Bargaining Agreement with the Library Union. A brief recess was called until 9:50 p.m. Min utemap_ffigh_agh22LLgdA1g Melissa Battite, Director of Recreation and Community Programs and David Pinsonnault, DPW Director, presented information about a proposed intermunicipal agreement with Minuteman High School that would provide access to a shared, full-size atheltic complex. Ms. Battite said that conversations about additional athletic fields on the Minuteman campus have been taking place for over five years. During this time, Recreation has held a place in the Capital Plan for field funding. Legislation was signed this past summer that allows Minuteman to enter into a 50- year lease/partnership, making an inten-nunicipal agreement about athletic fields possible. Ms. Battite reported that although Minuteman is free to partner with other entities, it only wants to partner with theTown of Lexington. The dollar figure for the full complex (multi-sport field and sport field lighting; multi.- sport/softball field and sport field lighting; multi-sport/baseball field and sport field lighting; tennis courts and sport field lighting; athletic structures .-bleachers, press box, athletic building with kitchen and storage shed) is $20M, of which Minuteman High School has $12M set aside and will also pay all design costs. It asks theTown of Lexington to appropriate the remaining $8m. Ms. Battite acknowledged that many questions, including long.-terms partnership concerns, remain to be answered. Minuteman's accelerated timeline to be operational by the fall of 2020 has caused Lexington staff and relevant committees to work intently on aligning the project with Lexington's budgeting process and a Working Group has been formed. 'The group envisions requesting approval at Annual Town Meeting 2019. Possible funding sources include debt service; Community Preservation; and an Athletic Enterprise Fund. Ms. Hai believes there is need for additional fields and recognizes that this project will have ardent supporters in the community. She is not convinced that a track at Minuteman will provide Lexington with the benefits it needs, especially since scheduling will conflict with Minuteman's own athletes. Ms. Hai asked if there is demonstrated need for additional tennis courts. Peter Coleman, Assistant Director of Recreation and Community Programs reported that he has to deny 2,500 hours of athletic field use every year; he will try to tease out tennis court numbers but noted that the Gallagher tennis courts at LHS are often at capacity in the evening. Ms. Hai asked if an exclusive partnership with Minuteman means that Lexington would have the only other access to the complex. Ms. Battite said the Working Group is looking into this question. It could also mean that hours not needed by either partner could be leased to other October 15, 2018 Page 10 of 13 interested parties in a tiered system, similarly to what Lexington does with its fields within the Town system. Who would administer scheduling and who would have control of potential revenue are associated questions. Ms. Hai said there is not yet enough information to form a conclusion on cost versus benefit but she is certain Lexington could not build the same athletic complex on its own for $8M. Ms. Ciccolo agreed that it is necessary to understand the need and benefits versus the investment. She asked if there are additional areas on the Minuteman property that could become athletic fields. Ms. Battite said there is some, but not much, additional acreage, perhaps half a field's worth. Ms. Ciccolo said it would be impossible to buy land in Lexington to build similar fields for the same amount being requested. Ms. Barry verified that the field partnership would be in addition to, not instead of, the current high school complex fields; she asked that questions the Working Group has generated be shared with the Board of Selectmen. Ms. Barry agreed that the athletic fields have been on the Capital list for several years but without a dollar figure; as such, it might be viewed at jumping the queue. Mr. Pato agreed that more detail is warranted but noted that need for more athletic fields has Neem well established. Mr. Lucente, a member of the Working Group, said Minuteman will build an athletic complex whether Lexington is a partner or not. David Kanter, Capital Expenditures Committee, asked about the status of Minuteman's design phase. Mr. Kanter asked about how management of the fields would be administered and what the funding sources for this investment would be. Betsy Weiss, 8 Dover Lane, recalled that the last opportunity for field construction involved the land on Lowell Street and the cost at that time was $2M for a field and a half. She asked for the Minuteman option be seriously considered. Lisa Rhodes, Precinct 9, Recreation and Community Programs Committee Vice Chair, stressed that this opportunity guarantees athletic field access for 50 years. Field conditions and weather/seasonal effects often render natural grass fields unusable. She urged consideration for this project. Review an iittee �tCP A�C Ms. Battite, Recreation and Community Programs Director, relayed a recommendation from COPA C to update the committee charge by removing the Youth Service Council member and replacing that member with an appointee from the Lexington Youth Commission, saying a "youth" voice will enhance conversations regarding current and future programming. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board of Selectmen voted 5-0 to amend the charge for the Community Center Program Advisory Committee by removing the Youth Service October 15, 2018 Page 11 of 13 Council member and replacing that position with an appointee from the Lexington Youth Commission. Review an ee Ms. Battite, Recreation and Community Programs Director, relayed a recommendation to update the Recreation Committee charge to include a liaison from the School Committee and Bicycle Committee. The Recreation Committee and the School Committee have several common interests and goals for programming and facilities. This will provide for more transparency and opportunities for collaboration when developing programs and capital planning. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board of Selectmen voted 5-0 to amend the Recreation Committee charge to include a liaison from the School Committee and Bicycle Advisory Committee. A Mrove F Y 19 Water/Sewer Rate Carolyn Kosnoff, Assistant'Town Manager for Finance, provided the third of three presentations regarding FYI 9 Water and Sewer rates. Ms. Kosnoff noted that the actual meter readings from section two residential accounts confirmed data from actual readings from section one; therefore, the department stands by its recommendation to increase rates, which was triggered by lower than projected water use. The recommendation asks that FYI 9 water rates be increased 1.7%-l.8% (depending on usage tier) over FYI 8 and FYI 9 sewer rate be increased by 8.7%. 'The combined increase equals 6.3%. The Finance department also recommends an increase in the flat sewer rate for the dozen or so accounts that use the sewer system but not the water system. The recommended increase from an annual charge of$94.24 to an annual charge of$373.00 is lower than the department's previous recommendation. Staff is researching other ways to calculate these accounts, such as a flow meter which would yield actual readings. Ms. Kosnoff also asked the Board to approve the amended message to be printed on the bills. Mr. Lucente said he remains uncomfortable with the rate increase; he has received negative feedback from residents. He asked if there are any alternatives to approving the increase. Ms. Kosnoff said the Water& Sewer Enterprise fund are not set up to generate funds, only to cover expenses. The formula for establishing the rates is straightforward and only pays for the cost of services. The FY 19 budget cannot change at this point; if rate revenues do not satisfy the cost, the funds go into deficit. Mr. Pato was also unhappy with the rate increase but understands it is due to the increased cost of raw materials and services. Ms. Barry said she is a reluctant supporter of the recommendation to increase rates; she said homeowners will want to understand why the rate has gone up so significantly. October 15, 2018 Page 12 of 13 Ms. Hai agreed the rate increase is unfortunate, but theTown has an obligation to cover its expenses. ,John Bartenstein, Appropriation Committee Chair, noted there have been very low rate increases for the last 4­5 years; water and sewer bills are increasing less quickly than the tax bills. The commercial/industrial water customers have helped keep rates down because they are using high volumes of water at the same time as residents' conservation efforts have been successful. David Kanter, Precinct 7Town Meeting member, urged that a brief explanation for the rate increase be inserted in the water/sewer bills. The Board agreed to authorize insertion of an explanation. Mr. Malloy and Ms. Kosnoff will compose the text of the message. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board of Selectmen voted 5­0 to approve proposed I^Y2019 water and wastewater rates as presented; and further move that the Board approve the proposed water conservation message as presented to be printed on the water and wastewater bills beginning with the Fall 2018 billing cycle; and further that the Board authorize theTown Manager to craft a message to be included in the water bills with an explanation as to the rise in rates. Review an Committee The Committee has asked for an extension in the timeline and for a specific charge to look at means testing exemptions that exist under State law. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board voted 5­0 to amend the Ad Hoc Residential Exemption Policy Study Committee charge by extending delivery date to March 15, 2019 and adding the following work item: Comparison of the Residential Exemption with means.-tested programs. Sign State Election Warrant . - Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board of Selectmen voted 5­0 to approve and sign the November 6, 2018 State Election Warrant. 2018-1 It was determined that the warrant would not include an article to appropriate funds for a Crematorium Schematic Design project. 'Therefore, the Special 'Town Meeting Warrant 2018-1 will include ten articles, not eleven. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Board of Selectmen voted 4-0-1 to sign Draft Warrant B for the Special Town Meeting 2018-1 to be held on November 13, 2018. Ms. Hai abstained due to the inclusion of a warrant article that would amend zoning for 55 & 56 Watertown Street, land currently owned by Belmont Country Club, of which Ms. Hai is a member.

Present were Ms. Barry, Chair; Mr. Pato; Ms. Ciccolo; Mr. Lucente; and Ms. Hai as well as Mr. Malloy, 'Town Manager; Ms. Axtell, AssistantTown Manager; and Ms. Siebert, Recording Secretary. On behalf of the Board, Ms. Barry expressed thanks to Mr. Malloy and 'Town staff for working with the "Lexington Says Enough" group to accommodate a request to hold a candlelight vigil in Emory Park in recognition of the lives lost at theTree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburg, PA. Selectman Concerns and Liaison &�rts Mr. Lucente said, at its meeting last week, the Human Services Committee discussed how to disseminate information about Interface Mental Health Services and the associated website that will go live in the near future. Mr. Pato said that the survey on Town services and Housing has already garnered 1400 responses; the survey will be available on the 'T'own's home page for another two weeks. Ms. Barry reported she and Ms. Hai attended a meeting at the Minuteman Statue on the Battle Green with Josh Crane, the conservator who repaired to the Statue. The work is now complete and the scaffolding will be taken down soon. Ms. Barry encouraged the community to visit the Statue to see the detail the cleaning has revealed. DPW Director Dave Pinsonnault is in the process of deciding what on-going maintenance program to adopt so that the Statue's condition does not deteriorate again. Town MaMRe ort Mr. Malloy distributed information about a recent Massachusetts Municipal Association discussion to engage with the governor's office on the subject of Other Post.-Employment Benefits (OPER). He reported that other issues currently before the MMA are: motor vehicle taxes; and charter school financing, which Mr. Malloy said was one of the largest issues in terms of the impacts to Chapter 70 State Aid to municipalities. Mr. Malloy reported that Lexington will receive two Massachusetts Clean Energy grants for commercial-scale air source heat pumps: one for $80,000 for the Lexington Children's Place and another for $250,000 for the Hastings School. The State also passed a supplemental budget with additional Chapter 90 funds; Lexington will receive just under$195,000. Mr. Malloy said that, between Financial Summit I and Financial Summit 2, he will be working with Caroline Kosnoff, AssistantTown Manager for Finance, to put together proposals for debt service management. 10/29/18 Page 2 of 7 Presentation-----2018 2018 STM.-I Warrant Article 10 Amend ZonW&-Bylaw -55 & ,56 Watertown Street Ms. Hai was recused on this item because she is a member of Belmont Country Club, seller of the property in question. Ted '"Iye, National Development; Steve Senna, Vice President, National Development; Attorney ,John Farrington, Legal counsel for National Development, as well as consultants from Stantec were present to provide an update on STM 2018-1, Article 10 Amend Zoning Bylaw.- 55 & 56 Watertown Street. Mr. Lucente asked National to provide a view of what Golden Avenue residents would see of the Bridges facility. Mr. Tye said during the winter, residents might get a glimpse of the fence but otherwise, because of the sloping topography, the building should be largely invisible to the Golden Avenue neighborhood. Regarding traffic, Mr. Lucente asked how many vehicle trips are expected from the two facilities. Mr. Tye said National prepared a detailed traffic study for this project and theTown conducted a separate peer review, the results of which closely matched National's study. Bridges residents will not have cars. Waterstone residents may or may not have cars as a shuttle is provided for residents to do local errands. Staff for both facilities that do not use public transportation will have cars and visitors would also add to the number of vehicle trips. Mr. Tye emphasized that both facilities are age-restricted to 62+ and the average age of residents is 80-85. Bridges will have 50 parking spaces; Waterstone will have 200 spaces with the majority beneath the building. Mr. Lucente asked if the building systems will be on the roof and affect building heights. Mr. Tye said the systems will not cause the building to be taller. Mr. Lucente asked about fiscal impacts for theTown. Mr. Tye and Mr. Senna estimated there would be an additional $600,000 in revenue to theTown from real estate and personal property taxes and another $400,000 from one-time fees. Mr. Tye stated that life safety municipal services provided to these facilities are estimated at $700,000 per year. Mr. Pato asked what services are provided on site that will make Bridges and Waterstone self- contained communities. Mr. Tye replied stated that the communities are full-service. National makes it easy for people not to have cars by providing a shuttle; three meals a day are supplied; housekeeping services are available; there is a pool and fitness center and a robust activities schedule. There are, however, no medical services available although if a resident needs medical assistance, staff facilitate connections to those services. Ms. Barry asked how many staff would be commuting to the site on a daily basis and how many would use cars versus public transportation. Mr. Tye said the traffic study provides answers to these questions. It has been a priority to improve access to the MBTA bus. Some funds in the memorandum of understanding (MOU) are earmarked for traffic mitigation. Mr. Senna reported there are streetlights already on Watertown Street but National would add more at the facilities' entrances. Ms. Barry asked if the crosswalks could be lit. 10/29/18 Page 3 of 7 Ms. Barry also asked how the utilities would be brought into the sites. Mr. Senna said water and sewer lines would come under the Route 2 bridge and electricity would come underground via Golden Avenue. Ms. Ciccolo said written comments from the Planning Board note that the traffic calming measures are still a work in progress. Ms. Ciccolo asked if funding would be adequate to re-align the off ramp, add a Stop sign and square off the intersection. Mr. Senna said aT intersection was discussed with MassDOTbut it was strongly opposed as an "unfeasible engineering solution." Ms. Ciccolo asked how noise from the building systems would be mitigated. Mr. Tye said this is also spelled out in the MOU; for Bridges, the equipment is nestled inside the roof, for Waterstone, it is on the high roof but protected by a parapet. Both approaches will meet the Town's stringent noise standards. There is also a protocol for additional testing. Wendy Reasenberg, 16 Garfield Street/Precinct 8Town Meeting Member, said she believes this is an important project for Lexington seniors. Ms. Reasenberg also welcomes the additional revenue the developments will bring to theTown. Sarah Liberman, 27 Watertown Street, expressed strong opposition to the project. She agreed there is a need for senior options but not at this location, with narrow roads and already.- dangerous traffic. She believes a building of this scale is inappropriate for the neighborhood and allowing it would set a precedent for other developers to ask for similar allowances. Betsey Weiss, 8 Dover Lane/Precinct 2Town Meeting Member, supported the proposal, noting it provides 18 affordable units. She believes people will give up their cars after moving to Waterstone and use shuttle or bus transportation. She believes the facilities offer an important alternative to what is currently available in Lexington for seniors and that theTown needs the revenue. 55 &56 Watertown Street Waterston-L��at Le��m�tom C)L1 Ms. Hai remained recused for this item. Ted 'Tye, National Development; Steve Senna, Vice President, National Development; Attorney ,John Farrington, Legal counsel for National Development, as well as consultants from Stantec were present. Mr. Malloy reviewed the MOU provisions intended to mitigate concerns relative to the Waterstone and Bridges developments. The full text of the MOU is included in the meeting materials. 'The Board will vote on the MOU at a future Selectmen's meeting prior to Special Town Meeting. Ms. Barry asked if requesting a grinder for the development's sewage would be appropriate in this instance, as it has been in other developments. Mr. Senna said both the Bridges and 10/29/18 Page 4 of 7 Waterstone sites require pump stations as they sit below road elevation; both stations will have grinder/cutter equipment. Ms. Ciccolo said she is pleased that so many things were considered in the MOU but she remains concerned about the level of funding offered for pedestrian improvements to the roadway and about the amount earmarked forTransportation Demand Mitigation. Ms. Ciccolo also asked if there is a place onsite for a community bus/shuttle access. Ms. Barry asked if the emergency pathway for Bridges would be kept clear of snow and debris by the development. Mr. Tye said the development is responsible for making sure access is unimpeded. The pathway for Bridges is stone dust and will be gated so that the only access would be by emergency vehicles. The pathway for Waterstone will be paved at the request of the Fire Department. Ms. Barry said that it should be ascertained where theTown puts snow in the Golden Avenue cul-de-sac adjacent to Bridges and if No Parking signs should be posted so as not to block the emergency egress. Maureen Cronin, 3 Briggs Road, stated her opposition to the Waterstone and Bridges projects and said her sentiments are shared by her neighbors. She reported that these concerns do not appear to have been heard by the Planning Board. She does not believe the location is the correct one for the project due to the additional traffic and proximity to Route 2 and high-speed travel. She also does not believe that the development provides an affordable option for seniors as monthly rates are high. Additionally, when seniors move out of single-family homes and into places like Bridges and Waterstone, families with children move in which results in impacts to the school population. Ms. Cronin added that loss of undeveloped green space seems counter to the goals of the Comprehensive Plan and that noise is already a major issue in the neighborhood as it sits close to Route 2. Bob Pressman, 22 Locust Avenue, said he believes the project supports the greater good; he urged support of the project. 2018 STM.-I articles-----Board Positions/Discussion The Board reviewed and discussed the Special Town Meeting articles and presenters.

Ms. Hai recused herself from the discussion as she is a member of the Belmont Country Club, seller of the property. The proposed amendments include: • Section 3 will be divided into Section A and Section B.

The resulting chart is appended to these minutes. Ms. Barry said the Board needs to discuss two items at this point: the notice of reconsideration that was served following the failure of Article 10 and the amendments to the MOU with National Development that Mr. Malloy just enumerated. Ms. Hai again recused herself from the discussion. About reconsideration: The Board received input from 'Town Moderator Deborah Brown and Town Counsel Mina Makarios, after which it was determined that enough had changed within the amendments to the MOU tojustify a request to reconsider of Article 10. Mr. Pressman, 22 Locust Avenue, believes the changes to the MOU as described by Mr. Malloy respond directly to objections expressed about Article 10 on the previous night. Those objections pertained to sustainability; funds for emergency services, and affordability. He believes the information is both new and compelling. About the amendments to the MOU: The four participating Selectmen all supported the amended MOU. Procedural deliberations took place for the night's Special Town Meeting session. If the Planning Board decides not to move reconsideration, Ms. Barry will move the matter for the Board of Selectmen.

Your time in positions of leadership within Troop 4160, and the successful completion of your Eagle project, speaks to your dedication. Being an Eagle is so much more than just another rank. It is a recognition of what you have achieved so far, but of more importance is the implied promise you have made to maintain the ideals of Scouting into your adult life.
