10/27/2021 AC Minutes • The reason for the recommended increase in the Fire Department Personal Services line item relates less to Covid 19 related overtime, and more to the level funding of overtime while hourly salary rates were increasing. • There will be a recommendation to indefinitely postpone Article 8: Climate Action Plan because the Sustainability Director is leaving her position and it is better to have her replacement review the request prior to bringing it to Town Meeting. During the discussion, votes on two articles were taken as follows: • A motion was made and seconded to recommend approval of Article 3: Establish, Dissolve and Appropriate To and From Specified Stabilization Funds. The motion was approved by a roll call vote. VOTE: 8-0. • A motion was made and seconded to recommend approval of Article 4: Amend FY2021 Operating and Enterprise Budgets. The motion was approved by a roll call vote. VOTE: 8-0. A motion was made and seconded to approve the report, subject to minor editorial revisions identified and made by the Chair. The motion was approved by a roll call vote. VOTE: 8-0. Mr. Parker said he expects to have the final draft of the report ready for a final review by Friday evening and the report ready for publishing by Sunday evening. It was agreed that meetings would be posted for 7 p.m. on the nights of the STM, starting November 8, 2021. Consent Agenda Mr. Parker reviewed the draft consent agenda. There was discussion about the three parts of Article 6: Appropriate for Community Preservation Projects, of which two are included in the draft consent agenda, while the third component a request that a previous appropriation be used for the installation of a new prefab bathhouse at the Old Res rather than renovating the existing bathhouse—has no monetary request but is not included on the draft consent agenda. After discussion, it was agreed that it would be logical for the third component to be included, and that recommendation will be shared with the Town Moderator. There were no other recommended changes. Minutes of Prior Meetings A motion was made and seconded to approve the draft minutes for October 20, 2021, with edits prepared by Mr. Levine.
