Mr. Lucente reported that, at this time, the Ad Hoc Crematory Study Committee <br />recommends to have the Westview Cemetery Project design be addition-ready for a potential <br />crematory. <br />Mr. Malloy explained, upon meeting with the Mr. Pinsonneault, DPW Director and Mr. Cronin, <br />Director of Facilities, it was determined utilities and where they are located would need to be <br />incorporated into the Westview Cemetery Project design in order to make it addition-ready for a <br />potential crematory. <br />Mr. Pato expressed his opposition to proceeding with further expenditures for the Westview <br />Cemetery building until the work of the Ad Hoc Crematory Study Committee has been <br />completed and the full set of requirements are understood. <br />Mr. Kanter, Capital Expenditures Committee, stated he hopes this modification to the design <br />plan does not affect the $2.8M amount being requested for construction design funds in the <br />Westview Cemetery article being brought forth at the 2019 Annual Town Meeting.
