Chairman Mitchel called the meeting to order at 7:15 P.M. in
Room 122, Reading Memorial High School with Board members A.
Burne, M. Rich and Clerk, K. Messina present.
The Board.reviewed the final drafts of the presentations under
Articles 29, 30, 31 and 32 on the Subsequent Town Meeting.
Mr. Burne suggested one correction on the Report on Article 32.
After this correction is made, all reports will be ready for
presentation to Town Meeting.
The Board then reviewed their positions on the following articles:`
Article 26 & 27 - Board supports;
Article 10 - no position;
Article 13 - no position; general feeling that there should be a
more comprehensive approach and this should not be
approached piece-meal.
Article 30 - Present sign fee is $15 minimum or $4 for each
$1000 value of sign. Fees for signs are set by.
the Selectmen and perhaps a lower fee could be'
set for those signs under 12 sq. ft.
Article 31 - Chairman had drawn up a price sign the approximate
size of that allowed under Federal and State law
that is to be affixed on top of each gas tank
quoting the price for each gallon of gas. This
will be used as a visual aid for presentation to
Town Meeting.
Article 32 - Chairman researched the right for Mrs. Cogen to
have a repetitive petition brought before the Board.
It appears that there is not an opportunity for the
case to be brought back under the repetitive petition
process.

tact with Board oaf Appeals Chairman Anderson regarding his draft

Kenneth G. Messina, Clerk
