JANUARY 12. 1994
7:30 p m Meeting called to order in the Board Room of the Reading
Municipal Light Department
Members present: Ed Murphy, Phil Pacino, Jack Russell, and George
Theophonis
Guests present: Dick Coco of the Finance Committee
Minutes #212 were read and approved by a vote of 4-0.
The Committee discussed with Dick Coco his concerns relating to the
Finance Committee liaison process. He expressed his concern that some
Town committees and boards were setting up adhoc committees without
seeking any input from the Finance Committee as to whether or not the
Finance Committee should have a liaison to the adhoc committee.
After discussion it was decided that the best way to handle the
situation was not to add or change any Town bylaw but to see if the
situation could be resolved thru establishing committee policies. The
Bylaw Committee stated its feeling that a Town Bylaw change should only
be considered if all other resolution processes failed.
The Committee discussed the possible agenda for the November 1994 Town
Meeting.
Meeting adjourned at 9 PM
Respectfully submitted,
Philip B. Pacino, Chairman
