No questions publicly yet. Still using bleachers for exercise. Jenna: Basketball and 6 tennis courts.Walking through court to get to other Kerry: Makes sense to open courts. Still have limit of 100 people in outdoor enclosed space, Eleanor made a motion to open all six community tennis courts, Paula seconded. Roll Call Vote-ES: Yes Paula: Yes KD: Yes Basketball courts: no shared equipment, no Jenna: Reviewed parameters, sanitizer needed before and after play, contact sports in Phase II Kerry: Phase III allows contact games Page 1 1 Eleanor: But there are no sector specific guide lines yet; perhaps by 7/12. John Weston: Does that mean there can be no games until then? Other towns are already playing. Jenna: I have contacted 86 regional directors and listed those not permitting games until guidelines are out Kevin: They opened without guidance? Kerry: This is a chronic issue. Individual communities can determine this. We are waiting for guidelines Joe Miller: Have Babe Ruth guidelines been approved? Jenna: For practice only. Joe Miller: This is inconsistent with regard to tennis and basketball use guidelines. Kerry: The difference is due to increased contact. However, there are clusters of kids, adults on sidelines Joe Miller: The guidelines are defined. John Weston: Planet fitness is open and there is lots of heavy breathing. This is inconsistent. Eleanor: We do want consistency. We need to indicate guide lines but we don't have them yet. John Weston: What about Austin Prep? Eleanor: The town issues permits for fields Joe Miller: We need to find a way to do things, not not to do things. Kerry: Il' s a challenge. We are in Phase III, so long as guidelines are applied, but we don' t have them yet. John Weston: We need to come up with guidance or do nothing. Eleanor: The Board hasn't addressed this yet. We need to act as soon as possible. Refer to the most recent guidelines anticipating next five days with a signed waiver. Joe Miller: Babe Ruth already has guidelines for Phase II and III. Why can't they play? Why are they not approved yet? Eleanor: They are approved pending state guidelines. We are awaiting state guidelines. Kevin: We cannot be more restrictive than the state. Eleanor: The current guidelines only apply to workplaces. There are grey areas. Town Council said some sport facilities are associated with business and are under their parameters. Kevin: Everyone wants the kids to play, but we need consistent guidelines. It is annoying that the state has opened the fields without these guidelines. Page 1 2 close, ehat about bench behavior in baseball and softball?catcher, John Wston: wht would theAre restrictions pire and batter II are rictons in place? Kevin: One example would be that you might want to prohibit stealing to decrease contact. The Board of Health could address contact situations. Perhaps the umpire could call from a different position. We could use available guidance already in existence. Jenna: There are spectator limitations. Joe Miller: (Referring to Babe Ruth Guidelines) The spectators have 6 parameters that have been submitted as well as for carpooling. Jenna: Agreed. Massachusetts is behind other states that have instituted guidelines and play. But we still need state guidelines. Jean: Screen shared Babe Ruth Guidelines (from a Google search). Jenna: We are operating under Phase II until state guidelines are in place. Joe Miller: How much more can the state restrict than this other than restricting baseball altogether. I understand that the Board of Health doesn't want to do what the state doesn't want. Kerry: WWe also regardingfurther les. is the Babe Ruth guidelines spectators? How many are allowed? ed? hat Joe Miller: The limit is 100, but that's not likely. It's usually 30-40 plus players (28). Kerry: I understand, but my question is with regard to the policy Eleanor: Face covering is needed when in proximity. There is need to discourage gathering. You need to make sure. Paula: Who will enforce the parameters? Eleanor: It's enforced by the team. Joe Miller: I feel the guidelines are good. Addendums can be addressed by the Reading Baseball League today. Eleanor: The Command meeting is coming up. We will meet after so we can try to address this. Kerry: The question is whether to let them play versus waiting for state guidelines. Eleanor: Babe Ruth has submitted their original document Joe Miller: Re-sent document Kevin: I can't see anything the state would object to. I'm annoyed by the state. I think they can work around it. Jenna: I agree but I'm not comfortable without Board approval. Kerry: Thank you for that. July 6 was not a set date. The impact of exposure on play is a compelling discussion. It's appropriate to consider play with the caveat that there can be Page 1 3 more restrictions after the state guidelines Eleanor: This is tabled until after the Command meeting and review. Can we let Jenna know? Jean: I'll have Jenna stay on. How many games are there scheduled this week? Joe Miller: Babe Ruth and Little League has 1 game/field/day; about 15 games M-F and Sunday. Eleanor: How many people at each event? Joe Miller: There are different teams on different days with 25-28 players, 6 coaches, 1-2 umps and 30-40 spectators. Games are at 6:45. Eleanor: Now we have EEE. Kerry: Not only baseball?What about soccer and Lacrosse? Jenna: Lacrosse is Sundays. Reading Little League starts July 11, but no guarantee. Kerry: Motion to table. Eleanor: Second Roll call: Paula-yes, Kerry-yes, Eleanor-yes. Command Meeting 11:02AM High School Graduation Greg: High school graduation is 7/26 John Doherty: I defer to Kate on this Kate Boynton (referring to diagram) Background: We have heard that so much has been taken from the grads. Students and families want an in-person graduation. In collaboration with Dr. Doherty, we awaited state guidance. Graduations after July 18 are allowed. I have spoken with other communities. Reading, Wakefield and Woburn elected to have in-person graduations along with several private schools. July 26 is the rain date. It will be at 7:15 so the sun will be less of a heat factor. Each grad is allowed 2 guests in a pod on the turf. There will be a preregistration for guests. Staff will monitor the two points of entry. They will be seated in alphabetical family pods of 8'X 4' with a 3-foot buffer between to allow for social distance. There will be 3 chairs in each pod. The ceremony will be 1 %hours. The band will provide a pre-recorded "Pomp and Circumstance". There will be short 3-5-minute speeches. Staff volunteers will guide each pod to receive diplomas. Masks are required and available with sanitizer. All grads will queue by alphabet to receive diplomas from the table. They can remove their masks for a picture only. RCN will live stream. July 24, the chairs will be delivered. July 26 will be setup. Reading Coop is providing water. Tables will be on the track. Dr. Doherty has reached out to Reading Police Department to determine the need to cancel due to weather. There will be a tent for the School Committee and school staff. There will be no handshakes or high fives. East Coast is providing the sound. We can't use the school system because it is insuts or cars to arrive. ff lcseparate entrances: A-L in e upper lot;f lot; M Z in the lower lot Exiting tiing w llt There will be two h be Page 14 the same, by row. There will be no cap throwing. Social distance will be maintained with masks. There can be no additional audience. If there is a positive symptom screen, the grad will be asked not to attend, as well as those who are vulnerable. Attendees are asked to dress for the weather and to use insect repellant. Hand sanitizer will be available. There will be no smoking or tobacco use. Exit will be along the field house. Reading Police, Fire and EMTs will be in place. Is there advisory regarding microphone use? Restrooms in the field house will be available. Masks are required except for speeches and pictures except for those medically unable and children under 5. Attendance by children under 5 is not anticipated. Masks and gloves will be There are 306 grads e. There will and carsthe . 9ff 1isted plus 1other volunteers in attendance.18 attendees a diagram). plus staff for a total less than 1000 Eleanor: Thank you. You have anticipated most of our questions and concerns. With registration, should we ask for contact tracing information? Kate: Google survey allows for that. Eleanor: I have seen guidance for more than 6 ft social distance not requiring masks, but due to the density, should wearing masks be recommended? We will check revised gathering guidance. Outdoor unenclosed gatherings of 25% is not applicable here. Paula: I think masks should be required. John Doherty: I concur. May 18 guidance requires masks at all times except for pictures and speeches. Eleanor: I am curious about queuing. Kate: It is from row to track back to row. Paula: It seems to be all in one direction in a loop. Kate: One row at a time. There is ample space between rows for social distancing. The next row doesn't stand until the previous row has returned. Eleanor: Will there be training and posted instructions? Kate: There will be a dry run earlier in the day, about 3-4 PM. Signage will be provided. Should we indicate one-way traffic? Eleanor: That's a good idea and perhaps reminders about masks etc. at the restrooms. Kate: 6 It markers are already there at the Field House. Greg: Mary has signage that can be used. Kerry: Thank you for the plan and the presentation. Regarding the microphone use; there could be covers or sanitizing between each use. Sanitizing might be easier. Another observation is that guidance says there should be no food or drink. Perhaps we should decline the donation of water from Reading Co-op, especially with the need to clean up. Kate: I will follow up. Kerry: The state guideline is specific. Kevin: Are they hard and fast? Page 15 John Doherty: Subject to Board approval. Kevin: Could the Board allow? Yes or no? Kate: We will follow the guidelines. John Doherty: Will they bring their own? Kevin: That's the downside. Kerry: Cleanup is still an issue. Should we read the language? Kevin: It doesn't have to be decided today. Kerry: The guidelines are clear. Kevin: There is also the liability of a private donation. John Doherty: They have done it for years. Kerry: This not regular Eleanor: We will keep guidelines. Kate: It's incentive to keep it short. Kevin: Make it known that it won't be provided and their own will be confiscated. Eleanor: Any other comments? No Kate: Reach out with any other questions. (signed off) Coolina Center Greg: Residents in need of cooling center. (See draft of senior center plan) Eleanor: Kevin, you and I had similar thoughts. Kevin B: I'm hesitant to bring people together. What is the definition of a heat emergency? Greg: 2-3 days of heat taking a toll. It usually is 3-4 people, but people could also go to the mall or the library (but not now). Kevin B: I'm concerned that it may be a social event. Eleanor: What can they do? Kevin B: In the past it has been open for 4 hours during the heat of the day. We could limit the time to go. Maybe there could be a movie for 8 in the main room. There could be TV for 3 upstairs. Other rooms have no media options. Eleanor: What about opening windows?Are there HEPA filters? Social distancing of 6 ft? Page 1 6 Kevin B: It's more than 6 ft; more like 8-10ft with chairs and tables. Eleanor: In gyms its 14ft. I'm more concerned about prolonged exposure in an enclosed space. Are there HEPA filters? Kevin B: I can't say. Eleanor: What about signage, sanitizer, masks and restroom parameters? Kevin B: The restroom is on the second floor. They would either need to use the stairs or the elevator. We need to upgrade the sanitizer. Ker : We're addressing the risks of those vulnerable to heat exposure. What is ere positve exposure to COVID?What should we do?There needs to be a restrictilonhon thea elevator use. Eleanor: One at a time in a high occupancy building. Kerry: Based on the past, there has been minimal usage with the malls available. How often In the past. Greg: 1-2 times, sometimes it hasn't been used at all. Usually 4-5 days of greater than 90 degrees and high humidity. Kerry: Without AC it can be pretty oppressive. There is a benefit to a well thought out plan. Eleanor: What about taking temps? Should they do it at home or at the center? Greg: There are no touch thermometers there Kevin: If there is a fever, they need to seek medical care rather than be admitted. Greg: We can ask screening questions. There is an isolation room. Kevin B: They have to walk by other rooms. So, I vote no. Eleanor: Is there another entrance? Kevin B: No. Eleanor: Is there any way to transport if necessary? Greg: We can't transport to the hospital. Paula: What about the use of Woburn Cab? Kevin B: That puts the driver at risk. Kerry: Are there any plans for a regional center that can provide isolation? Greg: MEMA posts when they are open. Salem and larger communities have them.We can refer but we might have a transportation issue. Kerry: I think so. Do we try isolation or not? I know Kevin is hesitant. Page 1 7 Paula: Can the isolation room be closer to the entrance door? Kevin B: Using the room upstairs limits the use of the other rooms. Eleanor: That makes it harder. Greg: We could have registration with pre-screening questions. Kevin B: We can make it work. Eleanor: Would you not admit someone if they haven't pre-registered? Kevin B: We have concerns for reaching capacity. Eleanor: Concerns with the windows closed and air recirculating with a high-risk population. Kevin Si There is a back entrance in the basement. Kevin B: We were planning to shutting off downstairs. Kevin S: Can isolate down there? Jean: I'm concerned. That area can't be monitored with only 2 staff. What can be offered other than computers and TV? Eleanor: Show a movie? Do people have phones? Kevin B: Some do. If people are symptomatic, that puts staff at risk. Eleanor: Could the screening be done in the car? Kevin B: If not, should they be sent home? Kerry: It's not appropriate to admit symptomatic people. What is the alternative? It would be a small number. If there are positive symptoms, they need medical guidance. They need to be transported to a clinic or doctor's office. This can't be supported. Eleanor: Even using the basement, are you comfortable with this? Paula: There is a liability concern if the symptoms go from bad to worse. Jean: If it's only for 4 hours, can we give transportation to Jordan's vs. supplying the space? Kevin S: Screening is still needed. Kevin B: The screening can take place before the driver arrives. Paula: There is no van. Kevin S: There could be. Eleanor: What about opening the center to people with positive symptoms? Greg: The symptoms are broad. They could be anything. Page 1 8 Kevin B: Alyse isn't a fan of taking temps due to inaccuracy. Kerry: I agree. And it doesn't get to pre or asymptomatic people. Should we have a cooling center given the small number of users? Eleanor: There isn't a large number at risk. We can open. There is an issue of the need for medical care for heat exposure. So, there will be no admission for anyone with positive symptoms. Paula/Kevin Si Agree. Kevin B: I'm comfortable if people are not symptomatic. Greg: We have direction to open to people without symptoms, there is a proposal for reservations. Kevin B: We will have pre-reservations and screen walk-ins. Eleanor: There needs to be signage, training and protocols in place. Kerry: Are there job action sheets for staff? Kevin B: No Greg: There were no activities in the past. Eleanor: The computers will need cleaning. Kevin B: We will keep everyone upstairs. Kerry: We need written communication of any changes. Kevin B: Agreed. Greg: Anything more?What are the current demand levels of people needing help? Kevin B: I'd like to open the Center. There is a lot of virtual programming. Social isolation is a problem. We have 14 Chrome Books for loan. We can use mobile hotspots. We can loan them for 2 months, and can help them get their own. There is a food supply and gift cards at the Center. Unemployment benefits are ending so I anticipate an increase in demand. We are using Woburn Taxi for medical appointments. Joe has agreed to take 1-2 people in the van. We need to establish protocols. There will be no hair or nail salon appointments. Tax returns are big, but that's ending. Ann Marie Rotondo has done a great job with the plan. The Food Pantry has had additional needs, but people are getting by. Bob: What about fund raising plans? Eleanor: What is Phase III guidance regarding Senior Centers and Day Care? Kevin B: They aren't in a phase. They are safer at home. We are pushing the virtual programs. Greg: Next item. Eleanor: 5 min. recess. Page 1 9 The following was discussed during the recess. Jenna: A disclosure is needed for field use. Eleanor: This could be a Town Counsel question. It requires waivers. Jenna: It's going to be a bigger issue in the fall. Eleanor: Maybe there could be signage that says at your own risk on the playgrounds. Jenna: I will check with counsel. Resumed @12:15 Greg: What are the plans to increase staffing at the library and Town Hall? Are we using the Needham protocol? Eleanor: I circulated the draft to board members for review. We need to finalize language and send to the various town departments. (shared screen). Bob: The Trustees will want their own. Kevin S: It's supposed to be unified guidance to be customized. Bob: The Trustees won't like appointment only. Eleanor: These are guidelines. Kevin: They can change things by letting us know. Eleanor: Fever is 100.4 Dave: There have been a few positive cases without fever. Eleanor: 44% Dave: Temps taken at 12midnight. They can't back fill the position. Paula: What about self-reporting? Eleanor: Yes, with signing the log that the symptoms are negative. It's true that there are a lot of asymptomatic cases. We need to keep a symptom log. Kevin S: How long does it take, Dave? Is 4-6 hours enough time? Dave: I'm already doing self-reporting. If someone isn't feeling well I need to know as soon as possible to arrange coverage. Paul: We never closed the fire department, so we don't need to reopen. So, does this apply? Dave: Police as well. Eleanor: You want people to be without symptoms. Page 1 10 Dave: 2 staff only had loss of taste and tested positive. We look at many symptoms. Eleanor: I agree that we need a constellation of symptoms. I'm not comfortable allowing someone to show up with symptoms. Dave: if someone has possible. They can ontly come backlhto work i commander s soon as are no symptoms Bob: It's the same at Town Hall. People with symptoms work remotely. Why should we keep a temperature log but not for other symptoms?What about the public? Kerry: Written policy would be good to see and incorporated. Screening is required. Can you share your policy? Dave: We use the exposure protocol from MGH. Eleanor/Kerry: Good. Please share this. Eleanor: I understand the need for flexibility. We need an indication that the screening has taken place and signed. I'm against doing logs due to HR files needing to be kept for 30 years. We need Town Counsel input. Bob: I will check with them. Eleanor: Are face covering requirements defined? Should we add cloth face coverings? Dave: Face masks are required in enclosed spaces: 8 people/1000 sq. Ft. But not in restaurants. Kerry: People in restaurants are in a family cluster. Not so in a workspace. Dave: The building is open 2417. Wearing the mask is difficult. We are doing virtual roll call to keep people out of the building. Paula: What about having a mask break space? Dave: What about just when they are passing in the hall? I'm not a fan of full-time masks. Bob: How does this compare to the library document? Eleanor: There are many similarities Bob: I 'm happy to compare. Kevin S: The DPW was very similar with a few differences. How is the set up? Dave: Very busy with mixed people in and out like detainees. Desks are separated by 6 ft especially during 16-hour shifts. Every day is different. Sometimes there are multiple prisoners. Eleanor: I' m uncomfortable with this. There is clear guidance. Bob: Has something changed? Page 1 11 Kerry: I 'm not aware of any change. This not droplet exposure. The indoor burden is heavy. It enforces the need due to business. Paula: There is only a 3 ft. distance between children. John Doherty: But they still have to wear masks. Jean: Facilities is a big part of this. Are they wiping down high touch areas twice daily? How do we do this without staff? Can Facilities handle this workload demand? Bob: We've been operating for 4 months since the initial guidance and now we have this. Do we need to change things now and then again when the public is added?What is the responsibility of the Facilities Department? That needs to be defined, some cleaning is outsourced and we can figure out how to meet the demand for cleaning but just need to define what that is. Eleanor: I agree. We need to revisit this. We assumed there were no employees in Town Hall. Bob: There are less than 10. Kerry: There is now guidance for increasing capacity to accommodate influx. I will get information about police department screening concerns and face covering. I will ask my colleagues for their perspectives. Jean: We need to define the cleaning protocol. I'm concerned about Facilities responsibility with shared custodians. Echoed the need to identify cleaning protocol. Kerry: Needham protocol doesn't address either. I will look into this with my colleagues. As well as the screening protocol. Jean: Do we have closed lunch areas? Bob: We already did at Town Hall. Kerry: The intent was to see how this draft would transfer to other departments. Eleanor: Work cohorts to avoid mixing people in the building, closing common areas, staff to wipe down their own areas, nightly cleaning. Paula: At the beginning and end of work. Paul: I just spoke with Facilities and they indicated that they are is stretched thin. They are able to keep up with the cleaning while areas are closed, but with the changes, there is not enough staff. Jean: The demand is not planned for. Eleanor: Is there a budget for more cleaning staff? Dave: We have 3 shifts. No extra staff. Eleanor: Maybe hire additional staff with the budgetary flex fund? Page 1 12 Public has a bUdget unds, but that can't used by other Bob: clepartmentsh t would rbe under fexpenses, not ageseWe could outsource. I can look into it. Kerry: If there is no facility staff, are the departments taking responsibility? Jean: My office has the wipes and staff use them as needed many of us carry in/carry out trash Dave: We all do wipe downs before and after use. Kerry: Cleaning issue protocols are built in. Jean: The problem is the bathrooms. Not sure how the bathrooms are treated Kerry: We need to plan for increased building capacity but still balance cleaning practices already in place. Eleanor: What if we come up with a new draft and meet again on Thursday? Jean: Are we meeting Thursday? Eleanor: That's the last agenda item, to incorporate edits into new draft. Bob: I need to wait until Monday to discuss this with the others. Kevin S: Have all the departments seen the draft? Bob: No. Kevin S: We need to give a week to do that. Bob: I will get feedback before Monday. Kerry: That's what I was going to ask for clarification about. The alternative is to ask each department to submit their own plan versus starting with this one. Bob: I can't say which way is better. Kevin S: We were trying to get a baseline to work from. Bob: That's good to have and objective, then allow the departments to meet the objective in different ways. Kevin S: We need someone to modify what we talked about today. Eleanor: Pending feedback from others. Bob: We might invite HR to the next meeting. He can say what the employee's concerns are. Eleanor: This concludes the third goal. Greg: See you Monday Bob: Does the Board of Health want to start earlier? Page 1 13 Members: Can we start at 9? Jean: Laura is on call for Monday. Going back to the previous discussion. Is Command over? Greg: Yes Board of Health meeting resumed Eleanor: Back to the game discussion. We rescinded restrictions based on EEA guidance. Jenna: The official guidelines are not out. Kerry: They have to be submitted to DPH. Jenna: We need to consult with DPH and determine the rules. Kevin S: Not the Board of Health? Eleanor: Section 5 authority is with DCS and DPH to enforce. Kerry: No guidance. All orders of phase II are rescinded. Phase III is without guidance. John W: I suggest for the short tens they can play softball and baseball this week. Jenna: Lacrosse is supposed to start Sunday. Then Soccer will want to start. John W: But they are contact sports. Jenna: Baseball and softball are considered contact sports. John W: Softball and baseball not as much, but lacrosse and soccer are. Kerry: I'm frustrated. I don't know what the recourse is. Eleanor: What would help make this decision? Is the pressure related to COVID risk? or something else?We also want consistency and have required signing that they are complying. Reading is not unique in withholding play until there are more guidelines. Why not push to wait one more week? Jean: We already reviewed standards for the workplace. Eleanor: The only reason for the exception is 1) People are tired of waiting and 2) State has said the fields are open. Kerry: It's all pending EEA guidance, but there is none. Kevin S: The state doesn't realize games are happening tonight. Kerry: We need to consider data, not dates. They said 3 weeks which puts it to July 16. It's the spirit not the intent of the plan. Eleanor: What about Austin Prep?What should we do? Should there be a signed waiver to use the fields? Page 1 14 Kevin S: empOWer Laura andJen aguidelines review andtimely get he guideli esPerhaps we could out? ld be Eleanor: Are we ready to otebon guidance for ugames now ortwait Bt goal orstate guidance?

Eleanor: Do at people should em know their tht they rare perating without state guidance and Jean: I have an email from John Weston who feels this could impact the league as it impacts other leagues. Eleanor: What does that mean? Jenna: I have been But aretransparent with them, but the leagues have been planning longer, the guidelines Larry: My concern is that we are awaiting guidelines now bumped to July 13. Town league is upset because they have purchased 275 shirts, individual equipment and people are getting antsy. Could things be streamlined? We thought the guidelines were happening. Eleanor: On July 11? Larry: So, opening isn't July 6. That puts us in a tough spot. ines are able. Laura, Jenne and I Eleanor: There can be no review protocols oa release mes ttoil gtteamis as soon aslpossible, Is the e a motion?)

The health inspector prep form is different from the state's form. Shall we table until Laura is here on Monday? Page 1 15 All: Agree. Eleanor: Should we be posting demographics to the website the same way the state does and include gender? Kevin S: Laura said it wouldn't be difficult. Eleanor: She may not be able to. Kevin S: We need her input. Kerry: What are we saying about numbers less than 5?Are we reporting or is it too small an N? Eleanor: Let's see if any categories are. Kerry: Providing data is consistent with the state, so long as it's not difficult. Kevin S: I thought Laura could do it. Eleanor: Meeting minutes. Maybe she can update May 18,21,28 and June 11. There are typos but will approve. Kevin S: Agree once amendments are posted. Eleanor: May 28 Kevin was present and I wasn't. Should we table due to procedure issues?
