On February 20, 2013, three members of the RMLB met and discussed the appointment of an Interim General Manager of the RMLD until such time as a permanent replacement to retired GM Vinnie Cameron can be appointed. Mr. Solt made a motion that 'the RMLD Board of Commissioners pursuant to Commonwealth of Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 164, Section 56 appoint the troika of Bob Fournier, Jane Parenteau, and Kevin Sullivan to the position of Interim General Manager.' The motion was defeated by a vote of 1 -2 -0. Ms. West then made a motion that "the RMLD Board of Commissioners pursuant to Commonwealth of Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 164, Section 56 appoint Kevin Sullivan to the position of Interim General Manager" and that motion was approved on a vote of 3 -0 -0. On March 27, 2013, at the end of the meeting, the RMLB entered into discussion about the Interim General Manager's position, even though that item was not on the agenda. With little debate, the RMLB considered a motion by Ms. Snyder that "the RMLD Board of Commissioners pursuant to Commonwealth of Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 164, Section 56 appoint senior staff on a rotating basis to the position of Interim General Manager with Mr. Sullivan and Ms. Parenteau in those roles, and that Ms. Parenteau be appointed for the 3 month period starting April 1 to May 1.° The motion was approved by a vote of 3 -0 -1 (the motion was amended to provide an April 15 start date.) There are two concerns with the ro ocess that resulted in this action, and in consultation with Town Counsel, I believe that the March 27, 2013 motion on this matter is null and void. 1. The motion on March 27 was virtually the same as the motion of February 20 that failed. Under Roberts Rules of Order, the action on March 27 would be considered a t` reconsideration. There was no motion to reconsider. A motion to reconsider must be made by someone on the prevailing side of the initial vote (Mr. Pacino or Ms. West) and 1J the motion to reconsider takes a 2/3 vote. 2. Of greater concern is that this action was not taken in accordance with Section 3 -5 of the Reading Home Rule Charter, The 3n0 paragraph reads: "The Municipal Light Board shall hire the General Manager of the Reading Municipal Light Department and set his compensation; the General Manager shall serve at the pleasure of the Board and may be removed by vote of a majority of the entire Board after notice and heanno"There is no evidence of any notice or hearing. The appointment of the Interim General Manager on February 20 was done under the section of the MGL that addresses the appointment of General Managers — there is no separate section that deals with an Interim General Managers. Therefore the action of the RMLB on March 27 was to remove the (Interim) General Manager who was appointed on February 20, and the process included in the Charter was not followed. My concern is not whether the RMLD could take the action that they did on March 27, but that they did not follow the process required by Charter. I therefore ask that the RMLB acknowledge that their decision on March 27 is not legal and that the action of March 27 be declared by the Board to be void. If you choose to rotate the Interim General Manager position, I request that you do so after notice to the existing Interim General Manager, and a hearing on his removal from that position. Thank you for your attention. incerely, i tL Peter I.

As we have been informed, on February 20, 2013, the RMLB met to discuss the designation of an Interim General Manager. The General Manager position became vacant when the former General Manager, Mr. Cameron, retired. The Interim General Manager position is intended to be a temporary position until a permanent replacement can be found. We have been told that during the February 2e meeting, the RMLB considered the option of appointing three individuals to serve as Interim General Managers, but that motion failed. Ultimately, at that meeting, the RMLB voted to approve Kevin Sullivan to serve as the sole Interim General Manager. The motion designating Mr. Sullivan referenced G.L. c. 164, § 56 — the statute applicable to the appointment of a Manager of the light plant. We have been informed that subsequently, at its Much 27, 2013 meeting, RMLB engaged in another discussion concerning the Interim General Manager position. As we have been told, this topic did not appear in the RMLB meeting agenda. As we understand, with little debate, one of the Commissioners, Ms. Snyder, made a motion to appoint an additional Interim General Manager, Ms. Parenteau, to serve with Mr. Sullivan on a rotating basis until the General Manager position is filled. Ms. Parenteau's rotation is to begin on April I5`s and will remain in effect for up to a three -month period. That motion also referenced G.L. c. 164. Mr. Sullivan and Ms. Parenteau both are existing RMLD employees and to our knowledge, neither individual K C received any salary adjustment to compensate them for any additional duties assumed by them until a General Manager is hired. In a letter dated April 10, 2013, the Reading Town Manager challenged the March 271" RMLB vote as null and void on procedural grounds. First, the Town Manager claims that the RMLB failed to follow Robert's Rules of Order, which according to the Town Manager, require a motion for reconsideration to be made by one of the RMLB members on the prevailing side of the initial vote —either Mr. Pacino or Ms. West. According to the Town Manager, no motion for reconsideration was made at the March 27" RMLB meeting to add Ms. Parenteau as an Interim General Manager. Second, the Town Manager claims that the March 27[" RMLB vote contravened Article 3 -5 of the Town of Reading Home Rule Charter, which requires, among other things, that the RMLD General Manager may be removed by majority vote of the RMLB after notice and a hearing. The Town Manager suggests that Article 3 -5 of the Town Charter applies because the RMLB vote referenced G.L. 164, 4 56, which pertains to the appointment of a General Manager. and claims that the action taken at its March 271" meeting removed Mr. Sullivan as the Interim General Manager without any notice or hearing. Based on our research, we conclude that the March 27d' RMLB vote designating an additional Interim General Manager is not invalid for the reasons specified in the April 10, 2013 • letter by the Town Manager. We have discussed our conclusion below.[ DISCUSSION Aualicability of Robert's Rules of Order The failure of the RMLB to follow a motion for reconsideration process does not invalidate the action taken at its March 271" meeting. Without discussing the appropriate procedure required by Robert's Rules of Order, the vote is not invalid because RMLB, as a municipal light board, is not required to follow Robert's Rules of Order. In general, the meetings of municipal bodies, such as the RMLB, are not governed by strict parliamentary roles, such Robert's Rules of Order. The Court has ruled that strict rotes of parliamentary procedure do not apply to town government. See Salem Sound Development 'The Town Manager notes that the Interim Manager topic was not on the agenda for the March 27'h RMLB meeting but does not challenge the validity of the RMLB vote on the basis of the open meeting taw. For avoidance of doubt. the fact that the issue was not on the agenda does not invalidate the action. Issues that arise after the meeting was noticed and not anticipated by the chairperson of the RMLB may he discussed and acted upon.. See, e.g_ OML FAQ Meeting Notices, published by the Attorney General OML -2712 -107 (topics that arise within 48 hours of the meeting. which the chair did nut reasonably anticipate would be discussed at the meeting, may be added to the agenda and considered by the public body.) The Attorney Genera[ al m) has determined that an anticipated topic may include an issue that is presented by another board member, as tong as the chair did not know in advance that the topic would be raised. See OML 2011 -25. As we understand, a RMLB member, not the chairperson. raised the • issue at die, March 27" meeting without providing any notice in advance oldie posting of the meeting notice. 0 E 0 Corp. v. City of Salem, 26 Mass.App.Ct. 396,398-99 (1988) (noting that strict Mies of parliamentary procedure do not apply to town meetings or municipal board meetings); Blomquist v. Town of Arlington, 338 Mass. 594, 598 (1959) (rejecting the applicability of Robert's Rules of Order to actions in a Town Meeting). Further, neither G,L, c. 164 — the statutes governing municipal light plants — nor G.L. c. 30A, §§ I8 -25 (the open meeting laws) require municipal light plant boards to follow particular procedures for taking formal action. Rather, municipal boards and commissions may establish their own procedures of governance. For instance, towns, by the enactment of bylaws or otherwise, can adopt their own procedures or agree to follow procedures in specified handbooks published especially for Town governance. Unlike Robert's Rules of Order, the Mies governing the conduct of municipal board meetings are flexible and they can be waived or suspended so long as the particular procedure(s) followed by a board or commission is established by role and not by ordinance. See E.F. Semas Trucking, Inc. v. Mayor of Taunton, 7 Mass.App.Ct. 907, 908 (1979). We note that, as a matter of practice, the RMLB has observed Robert's Rules of Order in the past and the RMLB has referred to those roles at a couple of its Board meetings. However, we are not aware of any written procedures requiring the RMLB to observe Robert's Rules of Order. Notably, not even the Town Charter or the Town's Operating Procedures for Boards, Committees, Commissions, and Task Forces Town of Reading, Massachusetts, requires town boards and commissions to observe Robert's Rules of Order. In fact, the Town's Operating Procedures expressly recognize that the various boards may adopt their own operating guidelines 0 or bylaws so long as they do not conflict with these procedures or any provision of State Law, Town Bylaws, or the Town Charter.' Thus, we conclude that RMLB's practice does not create a binding obligation on RMLB to strictly follow Robert's Rules of Order for all Board business without waiver, suspension, or exception. Indeed, as the Court has recognized in EF. Semas Trucking, Inc., supra, procedures of local boards can be waived or modified. Accordingly, we conclude that the motion for reconsideration process, as purportedly prescribed by Robert's Rules of Order, does not invalidate the action of the RMLB. Applicability of Town Charter Process Moreover, the March 27's RMLB vote is not invalidated for failure to observe procedures specified in Article 3 -5 of the Town Charter. That provision, which purports to pertain to the Municipal Light Board, states in relevant pan: The Municipal Light Board shall hire the General Manager of the Reading Municipal Light Department and set his compensation; the General Manager shall serve at the pleasure of the Board and may be removed by vote of a majority of the entire Board after notice and hearing. 2 We tecogniec that municipal light plants are not subject to traditional town government processes and operations and municipal ordinances do not apply to them. See. e.g.. Municipal Light Commission of Peabody c. Peabody. 348 Mass. 266 (1964): Municipal light Commission of Tamaon v. Taunton. 323 Mass. 79 (1948). However, the absence • of any Town processes equivocally shows that any observance of Robert's Rules of Order is voluntary, which can be subject to waiter or deviation. C Town Charter, Article 3 -5 (emphasis added). This charter provision requiring notice and hearing for the removal of the General Manager does not apply to the action taken by the RMLB for several reasons. First, Article 3 -5 does not apply by its express terms as it governs the "hiring" and '.removal" of the "General Manager." Significantly, as the Town Manager recognizes, the Town Charter does not govern the process for appointing an Interim General Manager, which is a temporary position or designation. Here, RMLB did not "hire" a General Manager, which is a permanent position, but instead, on February 20s, RMLB designated Mr. Sullivan to serve as an "Interim" General Manager on a temporary basis until a General Manager is hired. Mr. Sullivan was an existing employee; he was not hired and did not receive a promotion or a salary increase. Notably, RMLB did not require Mr. Sullivan to famish a bond, as required for the hiring of General Managers pursuant to G.L. c. 164, ¢ 56. The fact that the motion referenced G.L. c. 164, 56 does not change the character of the action, which simply was to ensure that the duties of the General Manager are performed on a short-term basis until the General Manager could be hired. Rather, Mr. Sullivan continues to be employed by RMLD as the E & O Manager. The RMLB vote simply had the effect of adding some duties to Mr. Sullivan's existing position until the General Manager position can be filled. The procedure in Article 3 -5 also does not apply because RMLB did not take any action • to remove Mr. Sullivan from the "General Manager' position or any position. As stated above, Mr. Sullivan was not hired as the General Manager, and at most, only was designated to serve as an Interim General Manager. Further, the RMLB did not "remove' Mr. Sullivan but instead, added another employee to share the General Manager duties on a temporary basis. Mr. Sullivan has not been demoted or discharged from his employment. He will continue to be employed as the E &O Manager and may continue to perform the additional duties of a General Manager on a rotating basis until a General Manager is hired by the RMLB. Accordingly, we conclude that Article 3 -5 does not govern the designation of an Interim General Manager and does not express any intention to give due process rights or an entitlement to temporary appointments or individuals performing duties on a temporary basis. Indeed, to hold that the notice and hearing procedure applies at this stage, would require that such procedure apply to the "removal" of Mr. Sullivan when the RMLD Board ultimately hires a General Manager to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Cameron's departure. Such an interpretation is not supported by the terms of Article 3 -5. Second, it is questionable whether Article 3 -5 of the Town Charter even applies to RMLD. A charter provision applies only insofar as it does not conflict with G.L. c. 164. A Town Charter provision that circumscribes the RMLB's ability to appoint a permanent General Manager presumably would be invalid. While the Town of Reading has broad powers of self - govemance, municipal charters duly adopted or amended in accordance with G.L. c. 43B only have the effect of law so long as they present no conflict with laws enacted by the Legislature. Kowalczyk v. Town of Blackstone. 48 Mass.App.Ct. 58, 59 (1999); City Council of Buxton v. Mayor of Boston, 383 Mass. 716, 719 (1981). Here, G.L. c. 164 provides for a comprehensive • E • El C legislative scheme governing the powers of RMLD, including the RMLB's authority to appoint a General Manager without interference from the Town. Several decisions provide guidance on whether local legislation is inconsistent with or conflicts with the State Constitution or any General Laws. In Del Duca v. Town Administrator of Methuen, 368 Macs. 1 (1975), the Supreme Judicial Court struck down an ordinance adopted pursuant to Methuen's charter purporting to alter the powers and duties of the local planning board in contravention of the General Laws. There, the Court reviewed the various sections of G.L. c. 41 which comprehensively treated the creation and operation of planning boards, and determined that the Legislature had taken the entire subject of the establishment, powers and duties of local planning boards in hand. Having done so, the Court concluded that the Legislature precluded local legislation that would impair the operation and effect of the statutes in that field. Del Duca, supra at 12 -13. As a result, the Court determined that Methuen was "powerless to specify the planning board's powers and duties in a manner which deviated in any respect from the powers and duties established by the legislation on the subject." Id. The Court also struck down municipal home rule legislation in City Council of Boston v. Mayor of Boston, 383 Mass. 716 (1981). In that case, the offending legislation purported to limit the number of employees in the mayor's office and to fix their maximum salaries. The Court determined that such local legislation was an invalid and unenforceable encroachment on the O mayor's power under the Boston charter and special legislation pertaining to the mayor's administrative authority. Under the Boston charter and relevant statutes, the mayor was charged with the administrative duties of the city government, including the supervision of subordinate officers, powers of appointment and termination, and the implicit power to set compensation levels for his staff. Therefore, the Court found that the charter and special acts evinced a legislative intent to reserve to the mayor the discretion to determine the size and salary level of his own staff, and that an ordinance purporting to regulate the same was necessarily inconsistent and, therefore, invalid. City Council of Boston, supra at 721. We recognize that after the Court issued these decisions, the Legislature enacted G.L. c. 43B, § 20 to address the consistency of charters with existing General Laws. Section 20 provides in pertinent part that, The provisions of any charter or charter amendment adopted pursuant to the provisions of this chapter [43B] shall be deemed consistent with the provisions of any law relating to the structure of city and town government, the creation of local offices, the term of office or mode of selection of local offices, and the distribution of powers, duties and responsibilities among local offices. G.L. c. 43B, §20. Although the provision in Article 3 -5 at issue arguably specifies the mode of appointment of the General Manager, it cannot be interpreted in a manner which impairs the RMLB's ability to hire a General Manager as required by G.L. c. 164, § 56. Requiring a hearing before RMLB can hire a General Manager, and particularly to discontinue temporary duties for E C C 0 which an employee has no vested or contractual rights, arguably infringes on RMLB's hiring authority and its authority to set the terms of employment as set forth in G.L. c. 164, § 56. Indeed, a subsequent court decision, Town Council of Agawam v. Town Manager of Agawam, 20 Mass. App. Ct. 100 (1985) ( "Agawam"), indicates that the Town's powers with respect to municipal light plants are much more limited. Agawam stands for the narrow proposition that a municipal charter may provide for an employee appointment process (e.g., in Agawam, the appointment of a town assessor) that does not involve town council approval, and still be deemed consistent with G.L. c. 39, §l, which provides that appointments are subject to confirmation by town council. However, the Court in Agawam also indicated that Section 20 should be interpreted generally to harmonize municipal charter provisions adopted under Article 89 and Chapter 43B with existing General Laws. The Court stated: As this court has noted before, when the Home Rule Amendment was adopted in 1966, the Legislature failed to revise many existing laws to reflect the new balance of power that the amendment established between municipalities and the Commonwealth.... [G. L. c. 43B, §20] is a significant step taken by the Legislature to remedy this oversight. The statute makes explicit what was implicit before in the Legislature's decision to enact the Home Rule Procedures Act. By the Legislature's delegation to municipalities through G.L. c. 43B of greater power in managing their affairs, municipalities could, within certain broad limitations, ® choose for themselves the forms of local government they found best suited to their own needs, including as part of that choice the manner of creating and filling local offices. Agawam, supra at 103. Therefore, despite the seemingly broad interpretation of G.L. c. 43B, §20 set forth in Agawam, the Court expressly stated that its holding did not extend to existing General Laws that consist of a comprehensive statewide plan of regulation. In this regard, the Appeals Court referred to the decision in Young v. Mayor of Brockton, 346 Mass. 123 (1963), where the Supreme Judicial Court held that a city charter provision calling for the appointment of members of the liquor licensing board without confirmation by the city council would not escape the provisions of G.L. c. 138. § 4, which required such confirmation. The Court noted that Young was based on the "special characteristics" of liquor licensing boards which, inter alia, `Operate under a detailed and strict State -wide olan of supervision and control reflecting the Commonwealth's supervening interest in the uniform regulation of the sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages." Agawam, supra at 105, n. 9 (emphasis added). Further, the Agawam Court noted that, with respect to the work of town assessors at issue therein, the Legislature "has not established a State -wide plan for their supervision at all comparable to that mandated for alcoholic liquors;' nor did it "single out the town assessor for special treatment" under the General Laws. Id. at 105, n. 9. "Unlike the statute relied upon in Young, [the town assessor statute] is purely general in its operation." Id. After considering the ® importance of the comprehensive general legislation at issue in Young, the Court in Agawam C concluded that, "[w]e expressly make no determination, however, of the effect of [G.L. c. 43B, §201 on the sort of appointment discussed in the Young case." Id. Accordingly, despite the enactment of the consistency provisions in G.L. c. 43B, §20, they will not apply to statutory requirements that are part of a statewide legislative scheme. Municipal light plants, such as RMLD, are subject to a comprehensive statewide scheme of legislation regarding their powers found at Chapter 164. Notably, the Appeals Court's decision in Golubek v. Westfield Gas & Elec. Light Bat., 32 Mass. App. Ct. 954 (1992), which was issued after Agawam, indicates that local legislation generally cannot alter the comprehensive statutory scheme pertaining to municipal light plants. While that case does not specifically discuss the applicability of G.L. c. 43B, §20, it delineates the respective powers of the Manager and Light Board, finding that the "chatter provision cannot alter the statutory power of the manager to hire employees and attorneys." Id. at 956 (emphasis added). Conversely, a charter provision cannot alter the statutory powers of the RMLB to hire a General Manager or to set the terms of the General Manager position or those individuals fulfilling those duties until a permanent General Manager is hired. Imposing a hearing prerequisite effectively transforms a temporary assignment of duties to an existing employee or employees into a position with automatic, vested rights, a term that the RMLB clearly did not intend.

Deferral to May would be consistent with past years' practice. Also, our time to discuss budget issues at the last meeting was constrained by the revisiting of a past Board vote —a matter likely to consume more time tonight. In particular, 1 am hoping we can see how the budgets can address these two topics: 1: Fund and procure a Master Plan for the Ash Street campus. I share the enthusiasm for preserving Station One, and was impressed by the study already done. But we need a site plan. A: While we have $850,000 proposed for rehabbing, we don't know the final use, which might influence things like restoring window openings or modifying entryways. B: While we have $150,000 proposed for covered storage on campus, we don't know where or how it connects with other buildings. C: We have discussed a PV array onsite, but not whether, Q how big, or where. D: Today Kevin Sullivan writes that plans to rehab the rear porch of HQ are being rethought after code issues surfaced. We need a plan that knits these pieces together, and can be reviewed as a whole. It will help all of these good projects succeed. 2: Address goals of load management, owned - generation, and REC proceeds. Portions of RMLD's 2008 strategy document called on RMLD to "...maximize value through energy efficiency and load management' and that we should include "...consideration of ownership ofgeneration." And after last year's REC- selling debates, there was agreement on spending the proceeds on in -house PV or a similar - spirited project. 1 think these budgets can do more to advance these matters. Is there not more we can do on demand -side load management; on storage (1 believe Mr. Sullivan cited a 10 -year payback on 3MW storage); on PV arrays if we can see payback numbers; and, in particular, on the REC proceeds? Given the expertise in the room and the past discussion on these topics, I am inclined to think we can take some action. Sincerely, David Talbot, commissioner CC: RMLD Board, Citizens Advisory Board, Staff • E E
