Foulds, at 7:32 PM, there being a quorum present. The Pledge of Allegiance was said by all. Moderator Opening Remarks: Two quick points before we begin. In this hall, Town Meeting Members sit in the lower portion, while non -Town Meeting Members sit In the upper portion. That is how we keep track of who is eligible to vote. Because of COVID concerns, however, I allowed elected members to spread out into the upper section. I do stress, however, that in order to debate or to vote you must come down into the lower section to do so. Otherwise you risk not being recognized or have your vote counted. That is your responsibility. Also, I remind newer members that it is a longstanding tradition and decorum that we do NOT applaud or cheer during the session. This is a business meeting with serious business before it. Now, let me point out how we plan to proceed tonight: The Select Board Chair plans to take Article 2 - reports - from the table in order for him to deliver the State of the Town address. Following that, we will put Article 2 back on the table, then take Article 18 out of order, so that we can begin work on the budget as close to the beginning of the night as possible. Again, for new members and as a refresher for veteran members, we handle the budget a little differently than we do other articles. Each section of the budget is presented independently. While we are discussing these small pieces of the budget, that is the time to ask questions or propose amendments. If there are amendments we will vote on them at that time, but we do not vote on the section as a whole. Instead, we work through all the sections, then vote the entire budget at the end. Just to reiterate, we'll take the budget and discuss it by section, amending, if necessary, along the way, but we only vote on the budget itself once - at the end. If this becomes confusing, we'll explain it again ARTICLE 2: Motion made by the Select Board to take Article 2 from the table. Motion Carried State of the Town Mark Dockser Good evening Town Meeting members, residents and visitors. My name is Mark Dockser, town meeting member from Precinct 1 and the newly elected Chair of the Reading Select Board. I want to apologize for not speaking at the start of Town Meeting on Monday night ... a little rusty after the last 4 Town Meetings via Zoom. But I think it is Important to deliver a State of the Town message in person. IIPa¢e ANNUAL TOWN MEETING Reading Memorial High School April 28, 2022 Performing Arts Center And after working out some of the kinks in restarting in-person, we got off to a great start on Monday night! We had questions, impassioned and respectful discussion, and then votes allowing us to move ahead. So first, let's all take a deep breath and say hello to one another. We are back together in person. Town government, our personal, school and work lives have had to make a lot of sacrifices and adjustments but we are doing it and moving ahead. It will still take some time for things to move back to some form of normal, but we are doing it. And speaking of doing it, Reading government and employees have kept us safe, secure, and moving ahead on a good path. We have strong revenues, a record amount of Free Cash that is well above the Finance Committee's guidelines, and a AAA bond rating for when we go to borrow money. The last 2 major construction projects in town that were funded with debt exclusions over and above the tax rete, the High School and the Library, will be fully paid off in FY25 and FY 26. Remember that this is the budget for FY23 that we will be working on tonight so those dates, FY25 and FY26, are right around the corner. We have seen a lot of new development in town resulting in record new growth of over $1.6M in FY22... that is new, recurring, annual tax revenue for the town. The upcoming presentation from the Town Accountant will highlight this. And we have received some feedback about this development and things that we want to improve. Later in town meeting, the CPDC will guide us through suggested changes to improve here as well. As the Town Manger mentioned, our proposal for a new, major Killam School Project will be eligible to receive some state school building authority funding, and the school department and school committee will be bringing forward next step proposals later this year. The Select Board established 3 Important ad hoc committees to move ahead on pressing town needs. PARC, RECALC, and RAAC. The first is the PARC committee that we spoke about on Monday evening, created to address our downtown parking Issues. Their one year plus of hard work with members representing businesses, residents and commuters held more than 10 public meetings and included a community survey that received more than 700 responses. The PARC committee brought forward a plan with recommendations that the Select Board will vote on next week and which was supported by Town Meeting with the approval for purchasing kiosks for the 2 central downtown parking lots. RECALL is the Reading Center for Active Living Committee. Town meeting last year provided $40,000 in funding to explore the needs of the community for senior (defined as age 60+) facilities and services in the form of a senior center/multi-generational center. With these funds and 7 committee volunteers, and the involvement of many other community members including the Council on Aging, the committee is working to assess our needs, benchmark against other communities' facilities and programs, and come back to the Select Board with a recommendation on how to move ahead. ReCalc has provided its initial report on process on page 54 in your warrant book. Be on the lookout for public meetings on June 1 and a community survey in early September. ReCalc will be back to the Select Board and then Town Meeting in November. RAAC is the Reading ARPA Advisory committee. Reading received $7.6 M in pandemic relief funds under the discretion and spending authority of the Select Board. We have allocated $250k of this money to pandemic relief emergency supplies including Covid-19 test kits. The RAAC is comprised of members of the select board, school committee, finance committee and library board of trustees and has been meeting regularly to discuss opportunities for these funds. Be on the lookout for a survey from RAAC in the coming weeks. The state of our infrastructure is goad. We have taken good care in maintaining our buildings. The townwide Municipal Building Committee report is on page 57 of your Warrant report. You can read of the great work this committee of dedicated professional volunteers (well, not that they are professional volunteers, but 21>age ANNUAL TOWN MEETING Reading Memorial High School April 28, 2022 Performing Arts Center professionals who are. volunteers). They have assessed all of our buildings conditions and reported on their life stage. Reading is a great place to live, work and visit. I want to give a shout out to the hundreds of volunteers in our community, including those of us in this room tonight, that give of their time and expertise to support the community. Our focus as a community is to make Reading an even more welcoming and great place for all of our residents, our businesses and our visitors. That said, we also face a number of challenges as a community. COVID is not behind us. The community rate is now over 6% and we are no longer in the low risk category. World events like the Russian invasion of Ukraine challenge our sensibilities and also impact us locally as inflation from supply chain disruption looms and could be a threat to future budgets. But one of the biggest challenges we face is the reality that we live in times of some pretty toxic political discourse. If we are able to look a little deeper, get outside of our own homes and enjoy time together with our friends and neighbors, I think that we will find that there are many areas of agreement. We need to work together to focus on those. And when we disagree, we need to find ways to talk about it... agreeably. With community forums as well as backyard gatherings, our strength will be measured by something very simple—can we talk to each other civilly. I don't mean to paint this as a simple picture as clearly it is not. But the change from a 1 -way discussion featuring harsh words to a 2 -way, civil discussion starts with each of us being willing to really listen as well as share our thoughts. And to work together. We have some great ways to be able to do this. We have Friends and Family day coming up on Saturday June 11th and we have the ever -popular Fall Street Faire coming up in September. And now that the good weather is hopefully with us, we have time to be together as neighbors and friends. Let's celebrate that time together to move ahead and work together for the community. So here we are. Ready to talk about FY23 and the. Finance Committee budget. Let's move it ahead too. Thank you for your attention.

The Finance Committee recommends the subject matter of Article 18 as explained by these votes at their meeting on March 15, 2022. Bylaw Committee Report: No Report Counted Vote 148 in the affirmative 0 in the negative 150 Town Meeting Members in Attendance Motion Carried as Presented ARTICLE 6: Motion made by the Select Board to Indefinitely Postpone the subject matter. Motion to Indefinitely Postpone Carried ANNUAL TOWN MEETING Reading Memorial High School Performing Arts Center April 28, 2022 ARTICLE 7: Motion made by the Select Board that the Town ratify the vote taken under Article 5 of this Town Meeting to amend the Fiscal Year 2022 Operating Budget by appropriating Three Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($350,000) from the General Fund and to transfer Eighty Five Thousand Dollars ($85,000) from the Water Enterprise Fund, Twenty Three Thousand Dollars ($23,000) from the Sewer Enterprise Fund, and Ten Thousand and Five Hundred Dollars ($10,500) from the Storm Water Enterprise Fund for the purpose of funding the Other Post -Employment Benefit Liability Trust Funds as modified in the revised budget lines in Article 5. Backaround: Each year at Annual Town Meeting, we ask to transfer funds budgeted for OPEB from that line to the actual OPEB Trust in this Article. Sometimes due to budget surpluses in health insurance premiums we have increased the budgeted contribution figures; we are prepared but have not yet needed to ask to lower the budgeted contribution figures to cover health insurance premium deficits. Recent contributions to the Trust on behalf of the General Fund have been $700,000 (FY20) and $793,400 (FY21) - each higher than budgeted. This year, Town Meeting is requested to make the annual transfers of funds previously budgeted and held for the OPEB Trust Fund. This practice is followed each year in case health insurance costs are higher than budgeted, and therefore may be needed to fund a deficit. In FY22, as demonstrated under Article 5, a surplus exists In that account, so as to allow the addition of $250,000 to the budgeted annual OPEB transfer for a total of $350,000 in the general fund. Original annual transfers designed to fully fund OPEB liabilities in the Enterprise Funds should continue: $85,000 in the water fund, $23,000 in the sewer fund and $10,500 in the storm water fund. This Article will therefore move the total $468,500 of all these OPEB contributions to the trust for Other Post Employment Benefit liabilities. The most recent OPEB valuation shows the Town's OPEB liability at $73.8 million and 8.1% funded as of June 30, 2020. The three Enterprise Funds and the Light Department are on a full funding schedule, and the General Fund is on a partial funding schedule. As noted, the General Fund will transition to a full funding schedule as soon as possible, as is required by law or immediately after the Pension Fund is fully funded. Presentation given by: Sharon Angstrom - See Attached Finance Committee Report - given by Marianne Downing: At their meeting on March 15, 2022, the Finance Committee voted 6-0 to recommend this Article to Town Meeting.

The balance in this Fund as of March 2022 is $37,559. Inspections Revolving Fund - The balance available as of March 2022 in this fund is $744,598 and of that total $190,250 is proposed by the Town Manager as part of the FY23 budget {$140,250 to support General Admin and Economic Development wages and expenses; and $50,000 to offset Building Inspections division wages}. Health Clinic Revolvina Fund - The Reading Health Division contracts for third party payments for a number of immunizations. The funds are used to augment the influenza vaccine supply from the State Department of Public Health to Insure vaccine for the homebound clients and first responders. The Division also uses these funds for materials for other screening clinics. Clinic client fees are also deposited Into this fund to offset vaccine and clinical supply costs. The balance available as of March 2022 in this fund is $30,706. The State has been cutting back on the free flu and other vaccines to be distributed to cities and towns, and the Town therefore needs to purchase extra doses. The necessary amounts used for clinic vaccine, supplies and staff salaries related to the clinics each year directly from the revolving fund is therefore approximately $25,000. Library Fines and Fees Fund - The balance available as of March 2022 in this fund is $11,982. The added flexibility in use of this fund approved by Annual Town Meeting two years ago has been helpful.

The Town Forest Committee has had a forest stewardship plan created (through a grant) to make recommendations on forest management including controlled timber harvesting. The balance available as of March 2022 in this fund is $0. Finance Committee Report - Given by Edward Ross: At their meeting on March 15, 2022, the Finance Committee voted 6-0 to recommend this Article to Town Meeting. Bylaw Committee Report - aiven by Jeffrey Struble: At their meeting on April 12, 2022, the Bylaw Committee 5-0 voted to recommend this Article to Town Meeting. Motion Carried ARTICLE 10: Motion made by the Select Board to approve an Affordable Housing Trust Fund Allocation Plan pursuant to Chapter 140 of the Acts of 2001 entitled "AN ACT AUTHORIZING THE TOWN OF READING TO ESTABLISH AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING TRUST FUND". Background: The State has a strong and bipartisan goal of building more affordable housing, and considers Reading a model community in this area. Town staff has been invited to speak at housing symposiums and the Town has received numerous related planning grants. The Town has achieved the 10% affordable benchmark set by statute. Reading is the lead community and is joined by North Reading, Wilmington, Saugus, and Woburn in sharing a Regional Housing Services Office (RHSO). The RHSO monitors and administers affordable housing requirements including tracking and updating the Subsidized Housing Inventory (SHI) and maintaining ready buyer and ready renter lists, among other responsibilities. Chapter 140 of the Acts of 2001 authorized the Town of Reading to establish a separate fund known as the Affordable Housing Trust Fund (AHTF). The AHTF requires Town Meeting approval of an annual allocation plan submitted by the Select Board. AHTF expenditures require approval by a majority vote of the full combined membership of the Select Board and the Reading Housing Authority. AHTF uses of funds include: • Create or preserve affordable housing; • Maintain or operate affordable housing; • Develop new or rehabilitate existing housing as affordable homeownership or rental units; Affordable Housing Trust Fund Allocation Plan FY 2023 Pursuant to Article 10 of the 2023 Annual Town Meeting, an Affordable Housing Trust Fund Allocation Plan for the Fiscal Year 2023 in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 140 of the Acts of 2001 is as follows: Available Balance - Unrestricted Funds: $457,716 Available Balance - Restricted Funds $0 Unrestricted funds shall be used for the following purposes: ANNUAL TGWN MEETING Reading Memorial High School April 282 2022 Performing Arts Center 5% up to a maximum of $10,000 for administration of Affordable Housing Remainder for constructing affordable housing (including loan and grant programs); or for maintaining and improving affordability of existing housing stock; or for the purchase of existing housing stock to add it to or maintain it as a part of the existing affordable housing inventory The purpose of the Affordable Housing Allocation Plan is to provide a framework for the Town to expend funds on affordable housing. The current AHTF balance of $457,716 reflects revenue generated through the actions of the CPDC, as well as proceeds from the loss of an affordable unit. There are no Town tax generated funds in the AHTF. The only expenditure to date from the AHTF, in the amount of $200,000, was to assist Oaktree development with financing affordable housing at 30 Haven Street.
