Call to Order
Mr. Lamb called this Remote (Virtual) Meeting, which had been posted as such, to order at
7:31 P.M. As all those present had been previously advised of the special conditions of this
meeting, he passed on repeating them (i.e., the authority to not require a physical presence
of a quorum and other selected terms under the Open Meeting Law is legislation signed on
June 16th of this year by Massachusetts Governor Charles D. Baker).
Mr. Lamb advised that materials provided electronically to the Committee or presented at the
meeting, would be available upon request and are those listed in this Minutes as Documents
Presented. Any votes during this meeting would be taken by a roll call. Further, this meeting
would be recorded to assist in preparing Minutes, and the recording would be deleted once
the Minutes is approved. Mr. Lamb took a roll-call attendance and determined that all five
members were present.
Mr. Lamb advised that there is one primary matter for our attention and voting at this meeting:
Reviewing, revising as needed, and approving this Committee's comments on the
FY2023-FY2027 Capital Improvement Projects/Programs (CIPs). The spreadsheet that
Mr. Kanter distributed with his comments (latest version being the one this afternoon primarily
changed by putting the comments in rows following the associated CIP) provided the basis
for the discussion. It was ultimately agreed to retain the same spreadsheet format, to highlight
in yellow the matters the members considered as the most significant, and there should be
a covering e-mail with an introduction to the attached spreadsheet.
It was then Moved and Seconded to approve: (1) Spreadsheet FY2023-FY2027 Capital
Improvement Projects/Programs (CIPs) containing the CEC Comments with the changes
made at this meeting; (2) that Mr. Lamb and Mr. Kanter are authorized to make any further
non-substantive changes; and (3) Mr. Lamb to make the e-mail introduction distribution to
Mr. Jim Malloy, Town Manager; Ms. Carolyn Kosnoff, Assistant Town Manager for Finance,
and Ms. Jennifer Hewitt, Budget Officer, and the usual Cc addresses, including the other
Committee members. Roll-Call Vote: 5-0
