A Motion to do so was made and seconded. Each member was polled and each voted "yes" The Committee went into Executive Session at 10:10 A.M. Potential Acquisition of Land at 33 Marrett Road The Committee reviewed the concerns expressed at its December 18, 2012 meeting regarding the purchase of that land. Mr. Lamb reported having conveyed a summary of those concerns to Board of Selectmen Chair, Deb Mauger. In response, she had expressed a desire to address them. The Committee decided to request an update from Ms. Mauger, in an Executive Session, at her earliest convenience. Return to Open Session: At 10:35 A.M., it was moved and seconded that the Committee return to Open Session. Each member was polled. Vote: 5 -0 These Minutes were approved by the CEC at its Open- Session meeting on January 22, 2013, but without making the content public as it was still sensitive at that time. In response to a query by Mr. Kanter on April 11, 2013, Carl Valente, Town Manager, advised on April 12, 2013, that the content of these Minutes could then be made public and the CEC did so by submitting these Minutes to the Town's public archives on that same date.
