Executive Session
March 21, 2006
The Executive Session convened at 10:15 p.m. in the Conference Room, 16 Lowell Street,
Reading, Massachusetts. Present were Chairman Camille Anthony, Vice Chairman Richard
Schubert, Secretary Joseph Duffy, Selectman Ben Tafoya, Town Manager Peter Hechenbleikner,
Assistant Town Manager Bob LeLacheur.
The Town presented the outline of the agreement between the employees collective bargaining
committee and the Town regarding health insurance beginning June 1, 2006. He indicated that
he would like paragraph removed that references additional state aid. This had been discussed
previously with the committee and the committee had always wanted to wait until the major
revisions that are currently being done. The committee is now resistant to removal of this
language. The Town Manager explained that the language is really meaningless, has never been
implemented and should be removed.
The consensus of the Board was that it would be good to have it removed, or at least have a
sunset clause, but that given the cooperation of the employee bargaining we should not make an
issue of it at this point.
On motion by Schubert seconded by Bonazoli the Board of Selectmen voted to adjourn on a roll
call vote with all four members voting in the affirmative at 10:25 p.m.
Respectfully submitte ,
