Hechenbleikner DATE: September 23, 2005 Reading, MA 01867-2685 P#l fw RE: September 27, 2005 Agenda TOWN MANAGER (781) 942.6643 As you know, I will not be at your meeting - I'm at the ICMA Conference in Minneapolis. The Assistant Town Manager/Finance Director Bob LeLacheur will be at the meeting as Acting Town Manager. lc) I'll be giving some information to Bob for the Town Manager's Report. 2a) This is the annual proclamation that the Board of Selectmen has done for a number of years for the Knights of Columbus for this very worthwhile event. 3) Paula has included in your packet the detailed information. We do have candidates for the Council on Aging and for the Advisory Council Against the Misuse and Abuse of Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drugs (Substance Abuse Prevention Advisory Council). 4a) Town Counsel will be present for the closing of the Warrant. I have given you a draft Warrant in your packet. There may be some minor modifications to the Warrant as it is finally closed. Either Joan Langsam or Gary Brackett will be present. I have added two Articles since we talked previously: Article 6 that will allow a rubbish contract for greater than three years. We are bidding the rubbish contract in January. We will bid some alternatives with longer periods of time, and we would want to be able to take advantage to those if they are advantageous to the Town. I have also added Article 14 on the purchase of the Kieran Road property. We had previously talked about this and the Board felt that we should move forward. This Article will allow us to apply for a grant or grants for the property. However, the total purchase price of the property is in the area of $40,000, so even if the grant is not approved, we might want to pursue it. We'll know more by the time Town Meeting meets in November. The Planning Commission is having a hearing on Article 19 on Monday, September 26 and will then insert the body of the Article into the Warrant. Article 21 has been petitioned by Sally Hoyt and I have let the Zoning Board of Appeals know that it has been petitioned. 4b) The Board has a proposed change of Manager of Romano's Macaroni Grill. The Police Department has reviewed the proposed new Manager and finds no problem with the change. This is a routine matter.

Tobin Vice President and Assistant Secretary # 8179678_vl /„ Board of Selectmen Meeting August 16, 2005 For ease of archiving, the order that items appear in these Minutes reflects the order in which the items appeared on the agenda for that meeting, and are not necessarily the order in which any item was taken up by the Board. The meeting convened at 7:30 p.m. in the Town Hall Berger Room, 16 Lowell Street, Reading, Massachusetts. Present were Chairman Camille Anthonv. Vice Chairman Richard Schubert. Secretarv Joseph Duffv and Selectmen James Bonazoli and Ben, Tafova. Discussion/Action Items Board of Selectmen's Retreat - Selectman Ben Tafoya gave an update of the Town Accountant process. He had called each of the four candidates who had withdrawn to seek feedback on the process. The Search Committee will be meeting to discuss a slate of candidates. The Board then began the discussion of the Retreat Agenda with Vice Chairman Richard Schubert acting as Scribe. The mission of the evening was to evaluate the framework of our present methods of operation. The group agreed that a procedures manual should be developed for reference and would aid future Board members. Liaison Assignments Need for communication with Chairman. When major projects/issues were to be discussed, Liaison is to attend meeting. Initial contact with B/C/C can be written or a call to the Chairman. However, attendance at a meeting is preferable. B/C/C Chairmen should contact Liaison on significant issues that arise. All Department Heads and B/C/C Chairmen are to send Agenda and Minutes to the Board of Selectmen. Tracking Proiects and Issues The Board acknowledged that items that had come to its attention needed a defined process to follow the issue to completion. These issues/problems could be raised by citizens' concerns, the result of the need for Board action as a result of Town work, or the need for the development of policies. Therefore, the following process was developed to stay focused: Acknowledge Categorize Prioritize Track s~ Board of Selectmen Meeting - AuLyust 16.2005 - Paae 2 In order to maintain an efficient tracking system, it was suggested that an Excel worksheet be developed for the issues/projects which will indicate the following: Which Town Department has ownership of the item e Board of Selectmen Liaison to the Department ♦ Current status of the issue ♦ Follow-Up/Action needed In addition, the Board will implement the following steps if additional information is available for those items, or if other issues arise which are not currently on the tracking sheet: Each member will electronically share any important information to the other members, and the Town Manager that will be added to the "Master" tracking sheet. The Board will designate agenda time at the beginning of the meeting to review the tracking sheet so items are dealt with promptly. Finally, Selectman Ben Tafoya suggested that all long-standing issues need to be addressed; i.e., Old Sanborn Road. The Board agreed that we need to come to a final decision as to the Town's position in such instances. Communication with Press When necessary, we should ask for corrections to statements that have been incorrect. Members should comment where and when appropriate and comfortable with statement. Communication with Citizens Office Hours: Starting in the Fall, the Selectmen will institute Office Hours which will be held prior to a Tuesday night meeting. In order to have consistency, the Board will designate a specific night and time which will be the same for each month. The following should be publicized on the website and cable: ♦ Monthly Schedule ♦ Agenda of upcoming items Your Community Connection should include an article written by a Board member about a current issue. Communication with Emalovees The caveat is that the Board of Selectmen "Sets the Broad Policy and Direction of the Community," and all concerns about employees should be addressed to the Town Manager. However, in order to address "employee-citizen" interaction issues, which have been directed to a Selectman, the Board member will revisit the concerns with the Town Manager and a decision will be made as to whom will interface with the citizen. If it is the Town Manager, the resolution of the issue needs to be reported back to the Selectman involved. 5(A~ Board of Selectmen Meetine - August 16. 2005 - Pase 3 The Board then discussed the need for further dialogue as to how we approach differences of policy between it and the departments; i.e., tickets vs. warnings, three bites vs. ? bites, zoning process, etc. This is a future ACTION item. The Board needs to relate its Goals to Town employees. Action Items for Departments: s Customer Service Survey Meeting Agenda and Protocol Each agenda should have the following: ♦ Thirty minutes for Liaison Reports, Comments and Public Input. ♦ Time allotted to review ongoing issues (Tracking Sheet). ♦ Time to discuss future Agenda items and decide what materials or actions might be needed by the Board prior to the meeting. ♦ In addition, the Board needs to receive material for upcoming Agenda items sooner than the prior Friday. The final discussion item was a presentation by Selectman Ben Tafoya of the 2005 Insurance Summary for the Town of Reading that showed the claims and premiums for each of the health plan offerings. On motion by Schubert seconded by Duffv. the Board of Selectmen voted to adiourn their meetinu of August 16. 2005 at 10:14 p.m. by a vote of 5-0-0. Respectfully submitted, Secretary SG"3 Board of Selectmen Meeting August 23, 2005 For ease of archiving, the order that items appear in these Minutes reflects the order in which the items appeared on the agenda for that meeting, and are not necessarily the order in which any item was taken up by the Board. The meeting convened at 7:30 p.m. in the Selectmen's Meeting Room, 16 Lowell Street, Reading, Massachusetts. Present were Chairman Camille Anthony, Secretary Joseph Duffy, Selectmen Ben Tafoya and James Bonazoli, Human Resources Administrator Carol Roberts, Town Engineer Joe Delaney, Reading Housing Authority Executive Director Lyn Whyte, Town Manager Peter Hechenbleikner, Paula Schena and the following list of interested parties: Bill Brown, Bob Bent, Stephanie Anderberg, David Kruh, Ruth Boyd, Stephen Crook, Dave Tuttle, Tim Kelley, John Coote, Gail and John Wood, Steve Oston, Mike McIntyre, Virginia Adams, Sharlene Reynolds. Reports and Comments Selectmen's Liaison Reports and Comments - Selectman James Bonazoli noted that he attended a meeting of the Water, Sewer and Storm Water Management Advisory Committee. They hope to have the sites for the Water Treatment Plant validated before the walk through. He also attended a meeting of the Nurse Advocacy Committee and noted that probably only a preliminary report will be made to Town Meeting. Selectman Ben Tafoya noted that the Town Accountant Committee will be meeting again on Thursday. Selectman James Bonazoli noted that he never received a Reverse 911 call and asked if there is a report. Town Manager's Report The Town Manager gave the following report: ♦ New flags are needed for Downtown. We will be removing the existing flags this week and replacing them the following week. If any resident wants to make a donation to the fund to continue this display, they may drop off a check at the Town Clerk's Office made out to the Town of Reading for the Flag Display. All donations are gratefully accepted. ♦ At the Board of Selectmen's request, I am putting a "Highlights" section on the agenda for the first Board of Selectmen meeting of the month. We will have a Department or Division of Town Government come in and do a brief presentation on the Department or Division. The purpose is to highlight what is going on in that area of Town Government and what upcoming issues may be. ♦ The Board of Selectmen has asked that we preview future agendas, and get material to the Board longer ahead of time than the weekend before the meeting at which the issue is to be addressed. ♦ The Board has received the new Monthly Reports from Town staff. We are looking for feedback on whether these reports give you more concise information that you find helpful. 'e-, & I - Board of Selectmen Meeting - August 23. 2005 - Pace 2 ♦ The Town is very much in need of a new CAB member to the Reading Municipal Light Department. This is a very important position which reports directly to the Board of Selectmen. If anyone is interested, please contact my office. ♦ Water restrictions are now in place. It took us a while longer to get the word out via Reverse 911 but this has been accomplished. We have been getting some feedback from residents - some supportive and some not so supportive. One resident wanted me to convey to the Board her outrage as to how this was done, and that it was done without any public input. ♦ Included in the Board of Selectmen material is a survey of other communities in the Ipswich River Basin, and the status of their water restriction. Reading's restrictions are more severe at this time than any other community other than Wilmington, which has a total outdoor water restriction because of well contamination. s Also included in the packet is the report on the water leak detection survey recently done in Reading. We do this survey annually, and the results of this survey are to reduce leaks that result in 86,000 gallons of water lost per day. This is certainly a worthwhile effort. ♦ The Board of Selectmen is invited on a tour of the Barrows and RMHS projects next Monday evening - see your packets tonight for the invitation. ♦ An extension to complete the Verizon CATV license may be needed, and the Chairman is authorized to issue an extension. Personnel and Appointments Cities for Climate Protection Proeram Committee - The Board interview Stephanie Anderberg for one position on the Cities for Climate Protection Program Committee.

Mr. Kruh received four votes and was appointed. Discussion/Action Items HearinLy - Classification Plan Update - The Secretary read the hearing notice. Human Resources Administrator Carol Roberts noted that a consultant was hired regarding Elder Services and there were two recommendations - create one full time position to be at the Senior Center, and consider an alternate to packaging of meals to Mystic Valley. Also, eliminate the Nutrition Program Coordinator position and create a Senior Center Coordinator. The Town Manager noted that the Town Accountant's pay is not appropriate, and Vice Chairman Richard Schubert sent an e-mail in favor of increasing the pay. Selectman Ben Tafoya noted that the candidates that they have been interviewing have indicated that the pay is too low for the experience we are seeking. Selectman James Bonazoli noted that this will be one of the highest paid positions and asked what effect this will have on the Assistant Town Manager/Finance Director position. The Town Manager noted that he will know in a couple of days. Bob Bent of 7 Sweetser Avenue asked what amount of money was being talked about. The Town Manager indicated that it is a 7% increase. A Grade 17 starts at $66,475 and a Grade 18 starts at $71,136. A motion by Duffv seconded by Bonazoli to close the hearin¢ on updating the Personnel and Classification Plan and Compensation Plan was approved by a vote of 4-0-0. A motion by Duffv seconded by Bonazoli to approve the amendments to the "Town of Reading. Massachusetts FY 2006 Classification Plan - Schedule A - I," adding the Senior Center Coordinator position as a Grade 6 to the Personnel Classification Plan and, uD!radinLy the Town Accountant position from a Grade 17 to Grade 18 was approved by a vote of 4-0-0. SiQninR of Street Acceptances - The Town Manager noted that the Selectmen already approved the street acceptances of Melendy Drive, Foster Circle, Forest Street (parcel at Anson Lane only), Lynn Village Way, Parsons Lane and Varney Circle at their meeting of March 29, 2005. All that is needed now is for the Selectmen to sign the paper work to be filed at the Registry of Deeds. Presentation - Proposed Storm Water Management Enterprise Article - Town Engineer Joe Delaney, and WSSWMAC Members Gail Wood, John Wood, Steve Oston, Mike McIntyre and Steven Crook were present. S~, 3 Board of Selectmen Meetina - August 23. 2005 - PaQe 4 Joe Delaney noted that the Board of Selectmen asked the WSSWMAC to develop a Storm Water Enterprise Fund. The cost of the program will be $540,000 or $61.40 a year per household. Programs include street sweeping, catch basin cleaning, drainage system mapping, equipment purchases, river improvements, consulting services, and ditch and detention basin maintenance. Chairman Camille Anthony asked if detention basins are being maintained now. Joe Delaney noted on an as needed basis. This would formalize the program and provide a dedicated source of funding. Selectman James Bonazoli asked if some of the $540,000 will be moved from DPW, and Joe Delaney indicated that it would. Joe Delaney noted that the rate setting fee would be based on impervious surface. There are three categories of property. The single and two family homes will be a flat fee because it would be too costly to evaluate. The multi-family properties vary widely in size and will be charged based on the total impervious area of the lot. The industrial and commercial properties vary widely in size and will be charged based on the total impervious area of the lot. Chairman Camille Anthony asked what an impervious surface was, and Joe Delaney indicated that it was roofs, driveways, patios, walkways, etc. Joe Delaney noted that there will be an abatement program. There will be no fee for undeveloped property. Residential properties can receive up to a 50% abatement if they install infiltration systems. There will be up to a 50% abatement for commercial properties that install state of the art storm water treatment or infiltration systems. Joe Delaney noted that the WSSWMAC recommends putting an Article on the Subsequent Town Meeting Warrant. Selectman Ben Tafoya asked what legal authority we had to set up this fund, and if it has to be a Proposition 2%2. The Town Manager noted that the Town has the ability to set up enterprise systems and it does not have to be a Proposition 2%2. Bill Brown noted that there have been two court cases that involved taxes, not fees. He also noted that only the minimum amount of people are being assessed, not the whole town. The Town Manager noted that he will get a definitive ruling from Town Counsel. Selectman Ben Tafoya also requested a ruling from the Department of Revenue. Joe Delaney noted that Cambridge and Boston fund their programs through assessments. John Wood noted that the Federal Government is telling us that we have to have a Storm Water Management Program. The whole philosophy is to clean up storm water at the origin, such'as not putting oil down the drain. Board of Selectmen Meeting - August 23. 2005 - Page 5 Steve Oston noted that putting oil down the drain is like pouring it right into the river. Chairman Camille Anthony asked if water from swimming pools is an issue, and Joe Delaney indicated that if the water is de-chlorinated, then it is okay. Gail Wood noted that if this is added to the budget, then it will be the first thing cut. She also noted that this does not qualify as an exclusion because it is not just one thing. There was discussion among the Board regarding the funding mechanism, and the Board directed the Town Manager to get an opinion from Town Counsel and the Department of Revenue. Discussion re: 75 Pleasant Street with Reading Housina Authoritv and Historical Commission - RHA Executive Director Lyn Whyte, RHA Members Tim Kelly and John Coote, Historical Commission Members Virginia Adams and Sharlene Reynolds were present. The Town Manager noted that the Housing Authority came to the Board of Selectmen with a proposal for six units of housing and a land swap with the Town. The Article went to Town Meeting for four new units and redevelop the older structure into two units. The Housing Authority hired an architect and the analysis of rehabilitating the older building as not being feasible. The Historical Commission disagrees with that. The Town Manager noted that the RHA could go back to their original plan and demolish the building and build without a land swap. Lyn Whyte noted that the Reading Housing Authority has put in endless hours to meet the wishes of Town Officials, neighbors and Boards, Committees and Commissions. The Housing Authority is trying to address the needs of families. Tim Kelley noted that the Town had a deal to purchase the lot and entered into a P&S to use the property to increase parking. The Town didn't have funds so they approached the RHA. RHA purchased the property with the agreement for the Town to acquire a portion for parking and the RHA agreed to wait three years. During the three years, the Town wasn't able to purchase. The Town suggested a land swap to put all housing down Pleasant Street. The Historical Commission listed the house on the Historic Property list but the costs are too high for renovation. Tim Kelley noted that the old house is a liability. The Historical Commission objects to gut rehab but the house is in bad shape. The Housing Authority is asking the Board of Selectmen to join them in a LIP for six new units on Pleasant Street. They would like to start on the four units on the parking lot and try to work out something on the existing house. The Housing Authority is asking to expend money from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund. They are asking for $250,000. Their preference is to do six new units on the site. The Town Manager noted that there would have to be a joint vote of the Board of Selectmen and the Housing Authority to expend the funds. There is approximately $280,000 in the Trust Fund now. 5 ~ 5 4. Board of Selectmen Meetine - August 23. 2005 - Paae 6 Virginia Adams, Chairman of the Historical Commission, noted that the house was built in the 1840's. The parents of the woman who had the house built were the founders of the anti-slavery movement in Reading. This is also the first house built in the John Damon subdivision. She noted that the building is subject to demolition delay bylaw. The Historical Commission feels that they should look at other options such as putting a new addition for the kitchens. They also suggested selling with restrictions to rehab and not demolish. Chairman Camille Anthony asked if the house could be moved, and Virginia Adams indicated that it could but the house is in that area for a reason. The Town Manager noted that the Reading Housing Authority does not want something that is high maintenance. He suggests that the Housing Authority move forward with the four units and see what can be done about the house. Tim Kelley noted that if they sell the house, then they need land to put two more units on. Virginia Adams noted that the neighborhood was pleased that the old house was staying. They are looking for an adaptive reuse of the house. If the interior is totally gutted, then they lose the walls and frames of windows. Lyn Whyte noted that they have certain standards to live up to and that property failed a recent inspection the paint is peeling, you could put a pencil through the window frames, and major systems are failing. The Town Manager noted that he will put this on the September 6th Agenda to make a decision on moving forward with the four units and to layout options. Selectman Ben Tafoya asked if the $250,000 is for the four units or six units, and Tim Kelley noted that it won't cover all of the costs for either. They are asking for a land swap and for the Board of Selectmen to join them in a LIP. Board of Selectmen Retreat Follow Ub - The Town Manager noted that the Selectmen receive the Agendas for all Boards, Committees and Commissions. Chairman Camille Anthony requested that the Selectmen, at least the liaison, receive Minutes. The Town Manager noted that if the Selectmen want to receive full packets, then they should request it. Chairman Camille Anthony noted that projects and issues need to be acknowledged, prioritized, categorized and tracked. The Selectmen can e-mail any updates to Paula Schena for the tracking sheet. Selectman Ben Tafoya suggested having a database that can be sorted by date, responsible person and type of problem. He indicated that we should include requests from residents and responses sent out. Board of Selectmen Meeting - August 23. 2005 - Page 7 The Town Manager asked if we are tracking work items or citizen requests. Chairman Camille Anthony noted that we will track both but may want to separate them. The Town Manager noted that he will follow up with our technology people to see if a spreadsheet could be developed.

Respectfully submitted, Secretary s Board of Selectmen Meeting September 10, 2005 The meeting convened at 9:00 am. at the intersection of Chute Street and Mount Vernon Street. Present were Chairman Camille Anthony, Vice Chairman Richard Schubert, Secretary Joseph Duffy and Selectmen James Bonazoli and Ben Tafoya. Also present were Town Manager Peter Hechenbleikner and a number of residents from the neighborhood. The purpose of this meeting was a site walk, first in the Chute Street neighborhood, and then at the Water Treatment Plant site. One resident noted that the one way restrictions are violated routinely, often in the 5:00-6:00 p.m. timeframe. It might be helpful to have a one way sign on Chute Street at the Woburn Street end so that the one way regulation would be well observed. As people were standing at the location, a vehicle did go the wrong way up Chute Street. Some residents indicated that the one way on Chute Street worked very well while others indicated that School Street gets less traffic now because of that. Some residents felt that Mount Vernon Street was better while others felt that Bancroft Street and Mount Vernon were worse with restrictions. Concerns were expressed that the High Street/Mount Vernon section is dangerous, but the High Street/Middlesex Avenue stop signs help. Some residents felt that the High Street/Lowell Street intersection was bad. There was discussion about enforcement of speed and one way restrictions. Concern was also expressed about the Mount Vernon Street/Bancroft Street intersection. There were also concerns about parking with the new building being developed at Haven Junction. The one way on Chute Street put traffic on Bancroft Street. The transfer is the traffic to that location. Parking on both sides of Bancroft Street between Woburn Street and Mount Vernon is a problem because the street is so narrow. The one way has in effect put the Chute Street traffic onto Bancroft Street and Mount Vernon. There was discussion about making Bancroft Street and Mount Vernon a four way stop. The consensus was that this would be a good idea. There were concerns about parking in the neighborhood. The main concern seemed to be that the parking made it more of an urban situation. There was also discussion about what the parking should be on Chute Street - should there be parking on both sides. The possible exception would be on Sunday. It was noted that the neighborhood has become a location for all day parking for the Atlantic Food Mart and the Depot and probably for the new offices. One suggestion was that we allow trucks go out to West Street. They used to go to West Street or up Linden Street. Now that they can't go up Linden or onto West Street, they'll go to Downtown and create backups. A suggestion was made that we install speed bumps for speed humps. The Town Manager noted that the speed bumps are not legal. Speed tables are, but the concerns are for drainage and plowing. s0 Board of Selectmen Meeting - Sentember 10.2005 - Page 2 It was suggested that Middlesex Avenue and Bancroft Street should be a four way stop. There was an accident there recently. Another suggestion was that we enforce the distance of parking from an intersection which the Town Manager thought was 20 or 25 feet. There was a suggestion that children's signs be placed on Kingston Street because of lack of sidewalks. The Town Manager indicated that philosophically the Town staff is opposed to such signs - they are not effective and they give a false sense of security. A question was raised as to whether or not we could eliminate the No Turn on Red at Woburn and High Street to make that traffic movement easier. The Town Manager noted that there was obstruction on Bancroft Street at Middlesex with the tree blocking the stop signs, and that one of the Do Not Enter signs is very faded and needs to be replaced. A question was raised as to whether or not people could petition for sidewalks. The Town Manager outlined the betterment process and noted that it would need to be done in a whole block - not in a house by house basis. One resident raised the question of street lighting on Middlesex Avenue - there was too little. A resident suggested that we should consider removal of some of the trees on School Street - during storms, they tend to drop a lot of branches. Another resident asked for a stop sign on School Street at Mount Vernon - people tend to speed in that location. The Board of Selectmen with a group of residents traversed the area on Mount Vernon Street from Chute Street to Bancroft Street, up Bancroft Street to Middlesex Avenue, up Middlesex Avenue to School Street, down School Street to Mount Vernon and back to Chute Street. The meeting of the site walk on the Chute Street neighborhood adjourned at approximately 10:10 a.m. The Board reconvened at 10:30 a.m. at the Water Treatment Plant at Strout Avenue. Public Works Director Ted McIntire, Water Treatment Plant Supervisor Peter Tassi, representatives from CDM and a number of residents participated in the site walk. The Board reviewed the potential sites eliminating the site that had previously been approved because of environmental issues. They then walked to the Compost Center, the tree nursery site and back to the existing treatment plant site. A number of residents expressed that the best site might be to rebuild the existing Water Treatment Plant site. The next best site would be at the existing Compost Center, and eliminate composting by doing curbside recycling. There was a suggestion that we should consider a Prop 2'/2 override to reinstate curbside recycling which is anticipated to be about $125,000 per year. Some expressed the feeling that this should be done even if the existing Compost Center site is not used for the Water Treatment Plant. ~c~ Board of Selectmen Meetins - September 10. 2005 - Paae 3 A question was raised about buying all of our water from the MWRA, and CDM representatives indicated that was not permitted by law. The Town Manager indicated that he has been having some discussion with DEP about the possibility of doing a special act to allow Reading to buy all of their water from the MWRA. The question was raised about the vulnerability of the Town's wells from another gasoline spill.

MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT/PLANNING COMMISSION I REGULATIONS TO PFIOTECT11JET= FROM FUTURE QEU,? P_fltlEM ANI~ ESPECIALLY. 40B PRMM I attended the presentation of the Ad Hoc Committee's Master Man before the Board of Selectmen on Tuesday, September 20, 2005, and commended its members for the fine job well done. Following my discussions with the Town Manager, I am recommending bylaw changes to protect the Town of Reading and abutters from future 408 developments.. Reading requires stronger regulations that would prohibit the placing of structures so close to the roadway. 50 ft. frontage should be required. Structures should also have 50 ft. setback from abutters property line. 408 developments should position lower structures at the front of the development, and. taller ones at the rear of the 'development. This would allow for beautification of grounds along the street side. The design of all future structures, including 40B projects, must be in keeping with the neighborhood to protect its historic village pattern. The designs must be approved prior to the granting of permits. We must mandate by regulations the number of stories developers may build in future developments. We must do everything in our power to protect abutters and neighbors of future developments. The property of abutters and neighbors' of the current Spence Farm development has been enormously violated. We need stronger safeguards and zoning bylaws that would protect our Town, its abutters and neighbors. THANK YOU. SALLY M. HOYT, (Please Note:.

I also want to let you and the Board of Selectmen know that I am resigning as your representative on the Audit Committee as I have just moved to Wakefield and am no longer able to serve the town in that capacity. I thank you for the opportunity to remain involve after leaving the Board and wish you and the others well for the future.

Favaloro, Executive Director MWRA Advisory Board Date: September 16, 2005 Subject: Community Rate Projections ;v Enclosed please find a copy of the "MWRA Community Rate Projections" publication, prepared by the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA) Advisory Board. This document is intended to bring into focus the impact of projected MWRA rate assessments, which approach over 40% through the next five years, and assist your community in preparing for these increases. Projects such as the Deer Island Wastewater Treatment Plant, which first went online in 1995, and the John J. Carroll Water Treatment Plant, which went live on July 27th of this year, made significant strides in improving the quality of water and sewer services provided to MWRA communities. Additionally, these projects achieved critical environmental gains, satisfying strict environmental regulations at both the state and federal level. These types of capital improvements are necessary to reach the Authority's goal of bringing its system up to 20 century standards and have made the MWRA a national leader in water and sewer technologies. However, such investments, which total over $6 billion, come at an enormous cost and impact to your community and your ratepayers. After nearly two decades of significant capital investment in the system, MWRA communities, which are already experiencing some of the highest rates in the country, are now faced with alarming water and sewer rate projections over the next several years. The enclosed "MWRA Community Rate Projections" document shows water and sewer percent increases from FY06 through FY 11 for each community, based on MWRA wholesale projections. With 40% plus increases expected through FY2011, rate relief has become the number one legislative priority for the Advisory Board. These community rate projections are intended to spur discussion among all parties involved in this important issue including communities, their Legislators, the Governor, the MWRA and Advisory Board Members and ultimately to find solutions to make rates affordable. As always, the Advisory Board looks forward to working with you on this issue. After reviewing the "MWRA Community Rate Projections," please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or for additional information. Joseph E.
