To: Board of Selectmen
From: Sharon Angstrom, Town Accountant
Subject: FY15 RCN Audit Meeting
Date: May 2, 2016
I was invited to attend the RCN Board Meeting on April 19th at 7:30. I was told that the
auditor would be there to present the results of the FY15 audit. I attended the meeting and
noted that RCN maintains its books on a cash basis and the auditor converts them to accrual
basis. The auditor presented some correcting entries but nothing that I noted as material.
The auditor's opinion is that the statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Reading Community Television, Inc. in accordance with GAAP.
I recently received the final financial statements for FY15. I completed my review and nothing
stood out as problematic to me. I am however, looking into the following:
Note 5 of the financial statements states that in 2008, RCN entered into an agreement with
the Town of Reading as the designated P.E.G. access corporation for the Town of Reading. A
provision of this agreement requires the town to perform an annual review of RCN's
compliance with this agreement. The agreement ends November 23, 2018. I am not familiar
with the compliance requirements of this agreement. I am in the process of locating this
agreement so I can make sure RCN is in compliance with the agreement for each year since
its acceptance. I will report back to you once I have completed my review.

Lt. Det. chard Abate _

April 16, 2016
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts
Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission
To whom it may concern,
Please accept the attached new application for an Alcoholic Beverage License. I am applying for a
General On Premise, Wine & Malt Beverages Only license for my business The Art Lounge on
Haven located in Reading, Massachusetts. I am pleased to have this opportunity to apply for this
license complying under the frill extent of the law.
An alcoholic beverage liquor license is essential to the success of my new formed business. This
business falls under the new, fast growing category called the "Paint & Sip" industry. It is a
painting lesson where wine & malt are served; essentially doing a painting as entertainment.
The target audience is females aged 25 -65 who want an adult atmosphere to enjoy a glass of wine
with friends and be entertained. Thus, serving wine & malt is necessary for the business to be
viable in that it elevates the experience to a "mature" level. Worth noting: wine & malt are part of
the experience, it is not the experience.
This business will be efficient therefore successful due to low operating costs and precise inventory.
Customers pre - register for classes ahead of time on -line, therefore all alcohol inventory needs are
precisely calculated based on class size. This eliminates the need for excess alcohol stock or
inventory.
Alcohol security measures are taken seriously. All alcohol inventory will be secured and stored in a
locked cabinet in a back room with no windows. Servers of alcoholic beverages will successfully
complete an alcohol management or server training course approved by the Liquor Liability Joint
Underwriting Association of Massachusetts before becoming employed. There will be a certified
manager (myself} on the premises at all operating times. Also Liquor Liability Insurance in the
amount determined by the Local Licensing Authority will be in place if such license is granted.
On a personal note, I am a current Reading resident of 24 years and have a vested interest in the
business community. My husband and I have been Reading business owners for 15 years and have
the experience and knowledge of Reading's business environment. I understand and respect the
responsibilities that come with obtaining a wine & malt license and would operate my business
adhering to all regulations associated with such a license.
I appreciate your consideration with this application,
04
