Ms. Fenollosa called the public meeting to order at 4:01 PM, and at 5:13 PM, upon a motion
duly made and seconded, it was voted by roll call (9-0) to go into Executive Session under
Exemption 6 to consider the purchase, exchange, lease or value of real property and to
reconvene in Open Session; the Chair declaring that an Open Meeting might have detrimental
effect on the negotiation position of the Town.
Executive Session under Exemption 6— Mr. Wolk updated the CPC regarding the land
acquisition of a parcel of land located in the Upper Vine Brook Neighborhood. He stated
that Town Counsel is performing a title inquiry because of an issue regarding the title
has been raised. It was also noted that there are many uncertainties going forward
because of the lack of a will and claims of potential heirs. Mr. Wolk mentioned that
there is a desire for the family to sell the property so that the proceeds can help assist
the owner who is in very frail health.
Mr. Pressman requested that additional information be added to the 10-4-18 Executive
Session minutes to include more detailed information about the financial figures
presented in the independent appraisals pertaining to the parcel of land being
considered for acquisition. The CPC agreed to amend the 10-4-18 Executive Sessions
minutes to add more information regarding the appraisals. It was decided to add the
actual figures of the two appraisals including a breakdown of land value, house value,
and the combined total. The CPC deemed that this was the only amendment necessary.
At 5:30 PM, after a motion duly made and seconded, the CPC voted in a roll call vote
1
(9-0) to exit Executive Session and return to Open Session to attend to the remaining
agenda items.
