FY 2018
The Community Preservation Committee (CPC)is recommending 11 projects to the 2017
Annual Town Meeting for funding under Article 10. Three projects fall within the area of
Historic Preservation, three under Open Space, three under Recreation and two under
Community Housing.
Described on pages 9 through 24, each project was reviewed and evaluated by the CPC in
light of its statutory eligibility and importance to the Town; all 11 received Town Counsel
approval. All FY18 applications were discussed in public CPC meetings and were presented at
the Town Meeting Members Association Information Session on March 9, 2017. The total cost
of the 11 projects which the CPC is recommending to Annual Town Meeting is $3,989,142.
The CPC is also recommending approval of Debt Service and Administrative Expenses to

which include payments for the Wright Farm Acquisition, the Community Center Acquisition,
Community Center Renovations and Cary Memorial Building Upgrades. The approved
Administrative Budget remains constant at $150,000. These Administrative and Debt Service
