Background is available if <br /> questions for details come up. <br /> • Cards discussion - Celeste suggested using bit.ly for shortening website <br /> address; possibly she could help with web things. <br /> Plastic bags <br /> o Ron went to Market Basket, talked to Johnny U., manager not there, but will be <br /> tomorrow. Also left message at corporate. He knew about the bans (that other <br /> towns have). <br /> o Some towns have ban, some charge a fee. Motion is to look at feasibility. <br /> o Instructional motion is Monday night. Can have handouts, but must identify <br /> where from (e.g., poster with RCAC identified). <br /> Bike swap <br /> o May 5-6 Bike Swap with Reading Cares: Jeff, Saturday 9-1:30; David on Friday <br /> (11-12:30). Expecting Ray (& Betsy's "wrenches") too. Others to check <br /> calendars. <br /> Other <br /> o Sunset Clause: Maybe have Selectmen redo committee tenure at same time as <br /> presentation May 2 to be efficient. Barry Berman seemed to think it wasn't an <br /> issue, committee is active. <br /> o Gina described electric car charging and battery storage on solar canopy pilot <br /> project proposed at RMLD. MVES is interested in using for Meals on Wheels -3 <br /> hr/day). Looking for others possibly for afternoon, such as Metco. Thought of"the <br /> Ride"; or the YMCA. David said Bob had mentioned an interest in canopy solar. <br /> o Ron needs to withdraw from the committee due to family concerns. His term <br /> expires in June this year, so he wouldn't ask to be re-appointed. <br /> Adjourn at 8:45 PM <br /> Page 1 2 <br />
