The meeting convened at 6:30 p.m. in the Reading High School Auditorium, 62 Oakland Road,
Reading, Massachusetts. Present were Chairman Camille Anthony,Vice Chairman Richard
Schubert, Secretary Stephen Goldy, Selectmen James Bonazoli and Ben Tafoya. Also
present were Town Manager Peter Hechenbleikner and Town Counsel Ellen Doucette.
The Board discussed with Town Counsel the options of tabling Article 26 or referring to the
Planning Commission. The Board understood that tabling would be a negative motion on the
particular Article that is before Town Meeting, and that this Article cannot be brought forward to
Town Meeting within two years unless it has a 4/5 vote of the Planning Commission. A
modification of this Article or another Article on this property could be brought forward without
that restriction. If this matter is referred to the Planning Commission, then that is not a negative
vote and the same Article can be brought back.
On motion by Tafova seconded by Schubert, the Board voted to recommend to Town
Meeting the tabling of Article 26 by a vote of 3-1-0.
On motion by Tafova seconded by Bonazoli, the Selectmen voted to adjourn the meeting of
April 24,2006 at 7:00 p.m. by a vote of 4-0-0.
