CAPITAL EXPENDITURES COMMITTEE SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT TO STM 2021-1
The followin� chan�es are a result of chan�es to the Article 5 Motion, made after our
ori�inal report was published.
1.On Page 2 of the Report,replace the Article 5 introductory table,in its entirety,with the following
version:
Article 5: Appropriate Funding •
Comm�ttee
for Police Station Funds Requested R mm n
Architectural Desi n Source eco e ds
g
and Swing Space
Construction $255,000 (for a) &
$615,000 (for b) a. Approval(5-0)
$870,000 General Fund
(New Levy b. Approval(5-0)
Growth)
2. As a continuation of Page 3, add the following text:
This Committee has now taken two votes, instead of one,under the new Motion.
The first (identified above as "a") appropriates funds for the requests in the lower section
of the table titled"Reasons for Supplementing the Architectu[r]al Design Fees for the New
Facility". We still unanimously recommend funding to complete all actions needed prior
to the anticipated request for construction funding at the 2022 Annual Town Meeting. That
avoids further delays in that request which, in turn, offers the earliest possible completion
of the new Police Station.
The second (identified as "b") is for appropriating the funds needed to be ready for
temporary use by the Police Department called "swing space".
• By addressing the Construction/Renovation funding and the other funding at this
STM gets those actions underway as soon as possible to achieve the earliest
possible completion of the new Police Station.
• This Committee fully appreciates that requesting completion of swing space before
a debt-exclusion or other citizen support of the new Police Station is different than
past practice, but believes these circumstances clearly warrant that action:
> Public Safety is one of the highest, if not the highest, goals for our citizens and
our government.
>The parcel at 173 Bedford Street was purchased with the specific intent to provide
swing space for both the fire and police functions. Hence, having served for one
function(fire swing space), it is also intended for the second.
> There is no other Town-owned land that can service as the swing space for a�
new Police Station so there is no harm in creating that swing space now.
>Construction bids will be lower now vs later.And the only reasonable expectation
is that any delay incurred by voting down these funds, will result in greater costs than
currently cited which represents, in this Committee's opinion, a failure in fulfilling
the fiduciary responsibility.
Therefore,please join this Committee's unanimous support of approving the b vote.
