<br />COMMUNITY PRESERVATION COMMITTEE <br />Board of Selectmen Meeting Room <br />Monday, March 3, 2008 <br />4:00 p.m. <br /> <br />Present: <br /> Chair, Betsey Weiss, Joel Adler, Norman Cohen, Marilyn Fenollosa, Wendy <br />Manz, Leo McSweeney, Richard Pagett, Judy Pearson, Sandy Shaw, Dick Wolk. David <br />Kanter, CEC Liaison was also present. <br /> <br />The meeting was called to order at 4:06 p.m. <br /> <br />1. Munroe Fire Suppression Project was discussed. Question was asked – Do we <br />give TM a chance to decide on this project? If the majority of the CPC votes in <br />the affirmative, then TM can decide if they want to fund the project with CPA <br />funds or have the Town borrow money for the project instead. A motion was <br />made to support the Town’s request for a fire suppression system at Munroe for <br />up to $579,550 from CPA funds. The motion was approved 5-4 (Adler, Manz, <br />Pagett, Wolk) in favor. <br />2. Discussion of CPC administrative cost. Betsey agreed to ask Jim C. what he <br />means by his question “Do other Town committees receive comparable funds for <br />administrative support?” Under the CPA, the CPC has statutory authorization to <br />hire administrative help. <br />3. Project Summary Review <br />a. Judy will edit the Parker Manor vote count to accurately reflect CPC’s <br />vote of 8-0-1. <br />b. A motion was made to reduce the amount recommended for the Town <br />Office Building Use Study & Renovation Design project from $100,000 to <br />$80,000 to reflect the elimination of construction administration. The <br />motion was approved 7-2 (Fenollosa, Pagett). The amount recommended <br />is now $80,000. Betsey will email Carl about the change. <br />c. The earliest the CPC article and projects are likely to be before TM is <br />st <br />March 26 and even more likely, March 31. <br />d. Pertaining to land acquisition, Dick was hopeful that by March 17, he <br />would know whether or not there would be a viable land parcel. <br /> <br />The next meeting was tentatively set for Monday, March 24, 2008. The meeting was <br />adjourned at 5:16 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br /> <br />Judy Pearson <br />Administrative Assistant to the CPC <br />J.
