Wednesday, March 16, 2011
Meeting called to order at 7:05 p.m. in the Conference Room at Town Hall by Jack Russell acting as
Chairman Pro Tem.
Members present: Phil Pacino, Jack Russell, Ron O'Keefe, Jr. and Dolores Carroll.
Also Present: Town Manager Peter Heckenbleickner, Town Clerk Laura Gemme, and Town Counsel
Ellen Callahan Doucette.
Minutes 4294 were read and on motion of Ron O'Keefe, Jr., seconded by Jack Russell, the minutes
were approved by a vote of 3 -0 -0.
The goal of the meeting was to complete as much of the recodification process as possible.
We began with a review of Article 1 where Section 1.6 was deleted as it was basically a duplicate of
Section 1.6.2.
Under Section 1.9.6, "Town Meeting" was replaced with "body " so that it now reads, "A formal
proposal by a member in a meeting that the body take certain action."
Section 1.9.11, is awaiting a definition.
Peter will work on redrafting several of the sections for language purposes, without changing the
intended meaning.
In Section 3.2.2, the format was changed by replacing the numbers with bullets.
Section 3.3.23. will now be titled Investigation.
Numerous changes and corrections were made up to and including Article 3.
9:15 p.m.: Meeting adjourned.
Respectfully submitted.,
Dolores S. Carroll
Clerk
