Community Preservation Committee Annual Town Meeting 2008 The Community Preservation Committee is pleased to recommend fourteen projects to Town Meeting for its consideration and approval, as described on the following pages. Each of these projects was evaluated in light of the articulated criteria for acceptable CPA projects as attached to this report and vetted at one of two public hearings held on December 7 and December 20, 2007, respectively. Of note, also, is the fact that all fourteen projects have been reviewed by Town Counsel and determined to be CPA eligible. In addition to these fourteen projects, the CPC recommends approval of an allocation for administrative expenses. The CPC is allowed to use up to five percent of yearly receipts for expenses, or a minimum of $215,282 for FY2009 and we are, at this time, requesting $50,000. This amount will be spent on a part-time staff person, mailings, notice publication, legal fees, and other miscellaneous expenses. Following the description of the fourteen 2008 CPC recommended projects, an update on twelve 2007 and seven 2006 CPA funded projects has been included.
