Topics of Discussion:
This was the boards first meeting, and the first order of business Is to organize
Tompkins noted he feels the Chair should maybe be a School Committee member due to
this being a school building project. Herrick disagreed and felt it didn't need to be a S.C.
member.
Maltez explained the role of the chair.
Nazzaro nominated Tompkins for Chair. Herrick seconded the motion.
Tompkins noted he is happy to take on the role of the Chair at this time and perhaps they
can re -organize in the future if needed.
The board took a roll call vote and unanimously voted for Tompkins as Chair.
McLaughlin nominated Nazzaro for Vice Chair, second by John Coote and the board
voted unanimously to approve that motion.
Maltez explained the next steps in the process. The next two steps are administrative which
Huggins will do. An enrollment study needs to be done which will be taken care of by Dr.
Milaschewski and his staff. A request to Town Meeting will be made for $2.2 Million out of
free cash for the feasibility study and design.
Herrick asked if we can create a page on the town website for this project to keep the
residents updated.
The board discussed a future meeting schedule and decided on August 22nd for their next
meeting and then they will meet every 30 Monday of the month after that. Their meetings
will be held at 6PM.
