She made VA a voting member for the evening. <br />186 Summer Avenue: JEB spoke to Fidel Maltez, the Town Manager, about the appraisals that both <br />the Town and Criterion conducted of the property; the two appraisals differed significantly. SC said <br />that Mr. Maltez will come to the October meeting to update the RHC about ongoing discussions. SC <br />suggested that the members of the Historic District Commission (HDC) also attend the meeting, and <br />that an executive session may be necessary. <br />RMHS Track Naming Committee: CK reported that there was no objection at the public hearing <br />in August; the initiative to rename track after former RMHS coach Hal Croft, therefore, passed. There <br />will be a public renaming ceremony at a home football game, probably in late September. <br />Fall Street Faire and Ane Reading: VA distributed the questions received at the Fall Street Faire <br />and asked RHC members to follow up. <br />SRS will arrange to reimburse Everett and Virginia Blodgett for the RHC's half of the Street Faire <br />registration fee, which comes to $55. <br />Arts Reading's "Discover the Arts" event will be held on October 15 from 10 AM -2 PM on the Town <br />Common. VA will produce the display. SC will distribute a signup sheet for work shifts. <br />25 Haven Street: No new information. JEB will follow up with Julie Mercier, Community <br />Development Director and the Community Planning and Development Commission (CPDC). <br />JEB will also research the wording relative to continuing a hearing in the CPDC's Bylaw and its Rules <br />and Regulations. The CPDC is, apparently, able to continue some of its hearings for significantly <br />longer than the 30 days that RHC is permitted to continue in demolition delay hearings. <br />Page I 1 <br />
