MEETING DATE 3/12/2003 Capital Expenditures met from 7:00-7:30 p.m. at Clarke Middle School before the TMMA precinct and information meetings. *Member comments on the draft committee report are due to Hornig by 7:30 tonight. Consensus exists to conform committee recommendations to Appropriation recommendations: fund DPW Skywalker replacement ($10,000) but do not fund Visitor Center electrical work ($97,000) or Building Envelope Study ($100,000). *For the meeting with Selectmen Monday, 3/17, the committee will outline what it would like the Selectmen to do, for each project or article where CEC holds different views (i.e., postpone funding for DPW and Senior Center facilities, postpone vote on 201 Bedford St. disposition). The committee will advocate sticking with the 5% cash capital funding formula, and to fund it! After its meeting, the committee heard these relevant points during the Town's budget presentation to TMMA: The Town has filled the gap created in the FY budget by cuts in state aid in 1. part by taking the savings realized in the recent long-term debt financing. These were funds CEC expected(s) to request for cash capital funding . NSTAR is auditing the Town Office for energy savings potential; that bears 2. on the building envelope proposal for relamping and otherwise rewiring Town Office building, which proposal the committee currently opposes . NSTAR report due within 10 days. John Rosenberg As Sheldon wisely points out, I typoed the Skywalker: $110,000 is the correct figure. Would that all appropriations were so flexible! Sorry.
