TOWN. MANAGER'S REPORT
Tuesday, October 26, 2010
Administrative matters
♦ Help wanted - RMLD CAB member
♦ Library project - OPM hired; Architect selected; ad hoc. Library Building
Committee established.
♦ Election November 2. The deadline for applying for absentee ballots is noon
time November 1St, and the Town Clerk will accept ballots up until close of
election day.
♦ There are a number of ballot question on the November 2 ballot, including
question 3 which would reduce the Sales Tax to 3%. The impact of this question
would be to reduce state revenues an estimated $1 billion in the second half of
this fiscal year (starting January 1, 2011) and would reduce revenues an
estimated $2.5 billion in FY 2012. If. these reductions were done evenly across
the board for State discretionary budget accounts, the estimated reduction to the
Town of Reading would be almost $1.5 million in FY 2012, in'addition to any
other reductions that may be required to balance the state budget.
Community Development
♦ The latest business to open in Reading is Embellish hair salon at 580 Main Street
Welcome to this new downtown business.
♦ The Wine Bunker is under construction. We had to require the owner to make
some modifications to the planpresented to the Community Services for permits,
because. they had exceeded the Board of Selectmen maximum allowed retail
space by over 10%.
♦ RCASA students will be doing surveys on tobacco products in the community.
We received a grant for this work.
Public Safety
♦ The Town has purchased a new mass communication program. We are set to
begin the set-up and once that is completed we will be rolling out public
information on the system, including the "opt in" features.

To the selectmen and CPDC
For some reason, this e-mail was kicked back to me, so I am hand
delivering this copy.
Date:10/18/2010 11:47:41 PM Eastern Standard Time
From:Wmelnoky@aol.com
To:selectmen@ci.reading.ma.us
CC:cpdc@ci.reading.ma.us
Sent from the Internet (Details)
After attending the CPDC meeting tonight, I became aware of what looks
to me like a discrepancy. The CPDC, apparently did not have a copy of
the liquor license meeting since that applied to the retail entity and
the owner,of the building was the party before them. They approved a
waiver of the site plan review with a warning that the plans might not
comply with the restrictions of the selectmen's meIeting. They were
specifically aware of the issue of the windows, but mentioned that there
might be other issues. Upon getting home., I checked briefly, and
another issue needs to be addressed that of retail area. The plan
presented for a waiver was for 7200 sq. ft if I remember correctly.
But the license is limited to 5000 sq. ft. of retail area. I also am not
sure if the mezzanine was counted in the sq. ft. calculation, which
would increase the discrepancy. I also think the window area is
insufficient to allow viewing the cashier(s). Before major construction
begins, and the board feels pressured to grant an exemption, could this
matter be reviewed? I think storage space cannot be ignored in counting
retail space and Danis should be aware of this from previous hearings
regarding the overall property, and while I realize that the license
goes to one entity and the building plan goes to another, these matters
are tied.
Thank you. Ellen C. Childress

Subject: RCASA Student Club Survey Project
Hi,
The RCASA Student Club received a mini-grant.of $3,750 to conduct a survey project regarding other tobacco
products. This project is separate and distinct from the previously discussed project on pharmacies and tobacco
sales.
This new project is for student chapters associated with the 84/Mass Youth Against Tobacco. Club members will
conduct 150 surveys (75 youth surveys/75 adult surveys) over the next 6 weeks. The surveys are to be
conducted near retail stores that sell tobacco products. Club members will ask youth and adults near retail stores
about their opinions around the pricing and packaging of blunt cigars, tip cigars and cigarillos.
RCASA Student Club members received training at the state conference a few weeks ago. They have a survey
protocol from the 84 program to follow verbatim. They were also trained on situational awareness regarding
private property,.not interfering with store business and dealing with the public.
Please let me know if you have any questions. I will keep you posted on their progress.
Warmest Regards,
Erica McNamara, MPH, Director

Re: Causeway Road Extension
Dear Board Members;
Causeway Road Extension was built to code with plans approved by the town
and filed with the clerk on May 2,1960.
Causeway Road Extension and Causeway Road have never been posted in the
50 years I have been here at 81 Causeway Road Extension, We as residents
have never paid real estate taxes on any portion of Causeway Road Extension,
it is not and never was a part of our property, we are taxed on the land within the
boundaries outlined on our deeds. We have never been refused a town service
,..we have. all; of the "betterments" the road was built to code for an accepted street
We do not have curbs, we do not want them, they destroy the "rustic" nature of
the area.
A street public or private used by the public unrestricted for a long period of
time (50yrs.) for Causeway Road Extension and nearly 70yrs. For Causeway
Road becomes a "public easement by prescription", (public domain).
Our Quit claim deeds from Lantern Corporation refer to Causeway Road
Extension. Our deeds refer to Causeway Road Extension, nowhere on our deeds
or quit claim deeds is Causeway Road referred to as private.

Reading, MA 01867
Dear Selectmen,
Attached please find the revised construction cost estimate and updated betterment
assessments to upgrade Causeway Road to a public right of way. The estimate is based on
the preferred alternate expressed by the residents at the October 5, 2010, public hearing.
The total cost of improvements is $428,000 of which $97,000 is within the existing public
right of way~and $331,000 within the private roadway section.
Based on the preferred revised pavement alignment there is an increase in the total
betterment assessments to the abutting property owners in the amount of $23,000. This is
directly attributed to additional costs required to construct the.roadway in the wooded area,
increased drainage relocation and additional tree removal. The estimate as presented
includes all improvement costs and does not exclude any costs for work that may be
performed by others or funds that may be received by outside agencies.
Sincerely,
George J. Zambouras, P.E., Town Engineer

Section 6.2 - Evaluation of the Town Manager
Since the position of Town Manager is of great importance in establishing the
direction of Town Services, the Board of Selectmen formulates through this policy a
process for evaluating the performance of the Town Manager, at two levels:
1. Annual establishment of the Town Manager's goals for the coming calendar year.
2. Annual evaluation of the Town Manager's overall performance as defined in the role
description for the position and in meeting established objectives. .
6.2.1- Goals
Prior to the end of the calendar year, the Town Manager shall submit in. writing to the
Board for discussion and mutual approval, a list of annual key goals that reflect the
Town's needs and priorities. The Town Manager will .then establish, with Department
Heads, the specific objectives and work plan to accomplish the agreed upon goals.
During the year, normally at three-month intervals, there will be open sessions of the
Board during which-the Town Manager shall report progress in achieving the goals and
objectives and receive feedback from the Board.
6.2.2 -Annual Evaluation
The annual evaluation of the Town Manager's overall. performance shall be based on
the role description for the position and the achievement of goals and objectives that had
been previously agreed upon. The, evaluation shall cover the previous year's
performance.
With input from the Town Manager, the Board shall establish a role description for
the position of Town Manager which may be reviewed from time to time at the request of
either the Board or the Manager.
When changes in items on the role description are made by the Board, the Town
Manager shall be given at least six months to demonstrate performance on the changed
item, before an evaluation on that issue is made unless the Manager and the Board agree
otherwise.
An evaluation subcommittee, appointed by the Chairman, shall initiate the annual
evaluation process late in each year by distributing to each Board member and the Town
Manager:
• a copy of an Annual Evaluation Form,
• the current years goals and objectives and current progress reports from the Town
Manager and
• the previous year's Evaluation Report.
Each Board member and the Town Manager shall submit the completed evaluation
form to the subcommittee within four weeks. The subcommittee will then prepare. a
composite of the Evaluation Reports and submit this to the Board of Selectmen and
Town Manager for presentation and discussion in a regular session of the Board of
Selectmen. The Board will take into consideration the Town Manager's overall
performance and progress in meeting the annual key goals and objectives in establishing
the Town Manager's salary for the following year beginning July 1.
A copy of the Annual Evaluation Report is ' to be placed in the Town Manager's
personnel file. .

Remaining Steps for the Revaluation Process:
1. We are currently in conversation with our State Certification Representative.
' 2. Review and respond to the Bureau of Local Assessment Concerns.
3. Get "Preliminary' approval from the Division of Local Services and Bureaus of
Local Assessment.
4. Get "Impact Notices" out for informal hearing.
5. Have informal hearings. (minimum one week)
6. Make appointments, review and correct items; corrections that create a value
difference of 10% or greater need to be reported on the LA 10.
7. Then submit final LA 4, LA 10 and LA 13 to state for approval of new growth and
final Certification.
8. The Classification hearing is next.
9. After the Classification hearing and shift levels are voted, the recap for FY
2011 is submitted for tax rate approval. (This is about the. same time as the
Accountant has everything that they submit into Gateway.)
10. Tax rate approved and then the bills are mailed. .
