Lexington Ad Hoc Crematory Study Meeting <br />October 1, 2019 <br />The Committee continued the discussion on submitting a Minority Report. Chairman Barry reported <br />that discussions with Town Staff determined that minority reports are rare and occur where there <br />are significant differences on fundamental approach to committee objectives. <br />Narain Bhatia presented an outline for the purpose of discussing ideas for a minority report. <br />Committee consensus opposed a stand-alone minority report. Members stated that they were <br />respectful of minority opinions, however the submittal of a stand-alone minority report would be <br />confusing in that it would be difficult to distinguish points of agreement from points of minority <br />concern. <br />The committee is amendable to the possibility of incorporating a section (in the final report) to <br />express minority opinions. Member are respectful of the minority opinions and do not want to dictate <br />content, however, members anticipate that minority concerns can be expressed in a one page <br />summary. <br />The members request that Narain Bhatia submit a draft of the minority opinion section to <br />Chairperson Barry prior to the October 15th meeting. Chairperson will distribute to members for <br />personal review (no discussion - Open Meeting Law). <br />The next meeting scheduled for October 15th (5pm to 8pm). Please note extended meeting <br />duration, hopefully to complete final report content. <br />The committee adjourned at 6:45 pm <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />
