Board of Selectmen Meeting <br /> January 24, 1995 <br /> The meeting was convened at 7:30 p.m. in the Selectmen's Meeting Room, 16 Lowell Street, <br /> Reading, Massachusetts. Present were Chairman Dan Ensminger, Vice Chairman Bill Burditt, <br /> Secretary Sally Hoyt, Selectmen Camille Anthony and George Hines, Town Manager Peter <br /> Hechenbleikner, and the following list of interested parties: Leslie and Irene York, Deirdre <br /> Hanley, Barbara Melanson, John Silvaggi, David Lee,Nancy Eaton. <br /> Discussion/Action Items <br /> The Town Manager distributed material on the Reading Police Station areas of concern, the <br /> Reading Technology Plan draft, and revised and updated ,budget information. The Town <br /> Manager noted that this budget presentationis preliminary in nature, and many of the figures need <br /> to be fine tuned. The general guidelines were to provide for 2.5% salary increase and no more <br /> than 2.2% on expenses. He is prepared a list for summary review of the FY96 general fund <br /> budget outlining the variances between the Town Manager's recommended budget and the <br /> guidelines. <br /> The Town Manager reviewed the budget projections and the revenues as of December 31, 1994. <br /> The following is a summary of the discussion. <br /> Accounting Department <br /> No variance from guidelines. <br /> Community Development Department <br /> Includes the full year of the Conservation Administrator reclassified salary, an increase in ZBA <br /> salaries because of increased workload (this is not related to the new program request for <br /> additional staff, and the full year of the Building Inspector salary following the six month <br /> probationary period. It was suggested that we review the proposed budget with the Historical <br /> Commission since they have some other resources available for historical preservation through the <br /> 350th fund. <br /> Finance Department <br /> Line C6 contains the new program requests for $10,000 for revaluation. <br /> Line C8 includes increased personnel expenses and advertising, medical and professional <br /> development. <br /> Line C9 general department salaries are less than anticipated because FY95 had a one time <br /> expense for sick leave buyback. <br /> Line CIO postage is increased by 10%. It was suggested that when we purchase computers that <br /> we make sure that at least some of them have CD Roms which are valuable for training purposes. <br />
