9 33 <br />APPROVAL OF MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS <br />• DANIEL SEFERIAN moved to ask PERAC for a new medical panel for John O'Keefe based on the Board's <br />hearing with Mr. O'Keefe and his attorney Augustus Camelio on May 10, 2005 and per Attorney Camelio's <br />letter to the Board dated May 18, 2005. If this is not granted the Board asks in the alternative for clarification <br />of the current medical panel report. <br />SECONDED BY: RICHARD FOLEY <br />VOTED: (4 -0) UNANIMOUS <br />APPROVAL OF VOUCHERS <br />• RICHARD FOLEY moved to approve the following vouchers: <br />2005 Voucher # 55 Town of Reading Treasurer <br />56 Town of Reading Treasurer <br />57 Corporate Express <br />SECONDED BY:' DANIEL SEFERIAN <br />VOTED: (4 -0) UNANIMOUS <br />INFORMATION /OUESTIONS <br />$495,583.94 May retiree payroll <br />$ 2,980.80 May administrator's salary <br />$ 18.85 Admin exp (supplies) <br />Richard Schwartz, attorney for Wayne Harding, is in the process of determining a settlement amount for Mr. <br />Harding's worker's compensation case. He would like to know what percentage the Board will accept for their <br />portion of the settlement so that there will be no offset to Mr. Harding's accidental disability retirement. The <br />Board has no policy on this and would refer Attorney Schwartz to Section 14 of Chapter 32. <br />The Board Administrator contacted John O'Keefe's attorney, Augustus Camelio to see if Mr. O'Keefe would be <br />interested in applying for a superannuation retirement while awaiting determination of his accidental disability <br />retirement. A letter was received from Attorney Camelio on May 24, 2005 stating that Mr. O'Keefe declines the <br />Board's offer. <br />The Board Administrator has received a letter from PERAC regarding excess earnings by Donald Stead for the <br />calendar years 2001, 2002, 2003. Mr. Stead will be contacted and given a chance to be heard by the Board before <br />any further action is taken. The Board would like to ask PERAC for the purpose of this hearing. <br />A letter was received from Attorney Matthew King at Keches & Mallen, the law firm representing Robert <br />Toussaint in his application for accidental disability retirement. Paul Danahy was Mr. Toussaint's attorney but <br />has left the firm so Attorney King is taking over the case. He expects that Mr. Toussaint's claim will be assigned <br />for a hearing in the not too distant future so in order to avoid any potential further delay he would like to know if <br />there are any additional records that the Board is seeking and would want before the hearing. The Board's <br />response, to be sent in a letter to Attorney King, is that "At this point the Retirement Board is not looking for any <br />additional information or medical records." <br />
