Lifting of Emergency Parking Regulations
Dear Peter:
As you know, in January I imposed temporary parking regulations on sections of
Washington Street and Green Street. This action was taken in order to ensure that police
and fire vehicles could continue to respond to and pass through these areas despite the
large snowfall accumulation.
Over the past several days it seems that there has been a break in the weather. Much of
the accumulated snow has melted, widening travel lanes on local roadways to their
normal capacities. As a result, I am lifting the temporary parking regulations effective
immediately. These regulations had specifically been in effect in the following areas:
Washington Street between Prescott Street and Fulton Street Temporary No Parking on
the Northerly side.
Washington Street between Prescott Street and Woburn Street Temporary No Parking
on both sides.
Washington Street between Woburn Street and Briarwood Apartments-Temporary No
Parking on the Easterly side.
Green Street between Ash Street and the entrance to Rite Aid Pharmacy-Temporary No
Parking on the Northerly side.
I will forward a copy of this memo to the Department Heads for their information and
post it on the Reading Police Department website. An announcement regarding the lifting
of these regulations will be posted. If you have any questions or concerns regarding these
restrictions please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
v ~

2. What do you consider to be important issues relating to culture in our community? (i.e., public art , historical
education, art/cultural programs supporting seniors, teens, families, children)?
Answered: 31 Skipped: 5
high quality performances that represent a variety of cultures.
The art and cultural scene is suffering from the maelstrom of easily accessible, prerecorded digital simulations of the
arts that are now pervasive. The fullness of the live performance and personal interactions cannot be replaced by those
things because they preserve only a small part of the whole experience. People don't understand that. We need to bring
back the personal involvement of the general population in the arts by making performances and exhibitions more easily.
accessible and frequent.
Art/cultural programs supporting teens, seniors, families, children
families and family freindly activities
I consider involving teens with established artists to be crucial. This provides key learning experiences, invigorates the
arts and harnesses the imagination and drive of youth.
Music, Teens & Childrens, the library
Preserving the history of the community, historic homes and the stories about them; tree lined streets that people can
walk along with places to stop and get some coffee or an ice cream
historical education, arts/cultural programs for seniors and their families
Communication! If these programs exist, I am unaware of them.
Arts awareness for all ages and abilities
seniors historical
I think there needs to be more in this town for teens to get involved in.
art/cultural programs for all ages
historical education
music programs reaching out to all ages
Historical
Art--visual and literary
Environmental
14 ~ ~
Multi-generational
Historical education
Publicity, volunteer support (recruiting & use of volunteer talent), public awareness of available cultural resources. I
think it's important to keep the artistic and cultural initiatives in town totally independent of Town government (then they
can't be cut in bad budget years).
Any program that brings art and cultural activities to town regardless of the targeted audience.
all of the above
art/cultural programs for seniors, special needs, teens, families and individuals, with public events and historical
education to create interest.
I think it is very good for the community to have performances and gatherings that bring people out of their TV rooms to
meet face to face and see real live people performing. We are growing too attached to our. screens, and too passive -
we view art and music as things other people do/participate in'and we just observe. Everyone should be an artist,
historical education, public art, music
Historical Education and programs that the whole town can be involved in, whether it be an Art Festival or a music
festival showcasing musicians from the middle and high schools and adults that also play music. It would be great to see
them all come together!
art, history of Reading, US and near east
More events need to be planned for the public to attend- concerts, craft displays and sales, much more on Reading
History via programs and tours.
The Antiquarian Society needs a boost to do more in the area of history.
,Supporting seniors
Towns committment to historic preservation,
art and culture programs supporting children, teens and seniors
No real "issue"; continue to publicize events in music, art, etc.
Seniors, music ed.
Any that promote town pride and unity and a sense of welcome to those new to Reading
3. What might artists and arts organizations do to make ours a more livable, prosperous community?
Answered: 28 Skipped: 8
Beautification of our community through music and art. Opportunities to see and hear new art/music- expand our
experience beyond our immediate environment/comfort zone.
We need to make the arts more frequent and more public and easily accessible. Reading Art used to have great
attendance at our Spring Show when it was outdoors on the common. It was visible and obvious and easy to walk
through. We are now buried in the basement of the church. We need to move more of the arts into the center of town
and make them more commonplace and visible.
Hold community meetings and invite everyone
Establishing a core community and a central physical space for collaboration and exhibition. Such a place would
encourage artists to come to Reading and art lovers and buyers to visikt Reading.
More performances.
I've been to a couple of communities that have street art in the downtown area, and that makes it really fun to visit and
walk around while you shop. One of the best is Belfast Maine. Boston has put in some really nice street art - interactive
stuff in the greenway for kids to play and parents to sit and watch.
not sure
Print money?
I think recognition by the town and school system is extremely important. The organizations are already out there, trying
to encourage people to attend their events... yet we see little supported or encouraged by the Town & school system.
have more exhibits, make them more enticing for the rest of the town and not just those in school or families who have
children or friends in the programs.
15
1C tD
Open Studio events, art center with studio space for individual artists to rent at reasonable cost
Have shared activities
That's a good question. What have they done so far?
More public art & sculpture displays, adding a performance space downtown (perhaps in the Christian Science Church
facility?), recruiting artists who perform at Memorial Park and the Fall Fair to perform at other times and in other venues
in Reading during the year. Publicize these performance events outside of town, to invite visitors who might stay and
have dinner or discover an interesting store here.
Anything that will get their "product" in front of the community - street faires, open mike nights, presence at other town
events, ie how could we incorporate art at the farmers market? Artisan cheeses?
engage people in creating art (music, art, writing, etc.) so that they may better appreciate exhibits, readings, concerts,
etc.
Public events to bring out people so they can experience and learn about arts/culture. Something fun to try.
Draw on the currently active supporters and encourage them to bring out their neighbors. Arts activities need to be
made accessible. Attach a party/social gathering opportunity to the end of performances so people can mingle, meet
and converse, not just watch then leave.
More productions
Have outside performances in the summer and make it like an old time "Ice Cream Social". The money made with
selling ice cream could help sponsor additional programs!
help with marketing
The outdoor art show on the common of.years gone by was wonderful and something to look forward to.
Have more displays of arts
draw residents together, spark a conversation
Reach out to the community
Participate in "all town" events so that the community as a whole knows of these artists and arts (ie Friends and Family
Day, Reading Fall Street Faire
We have a great community... not sure how to make it more "livable" or "prosperous"

Funding the production of a program & reaching new audience members with publicity.
I am a long time member of Reading Art Association (since about 1981). The membership is decreasing. Attendance at
the meetings is down to the Members. of the Board and a few dedicated followers. Entries in our Spring and Fall shows
is decreasing every year. The people running the events are getting tired, and there are few new members.showing up
to take over. The next few years will be critical for the survival of the organization.

9. Please list any other comments or suggestions.
Answered: 15 Skipped: 21
The arts need to be more frequent and accessible. Perhaps moving some of it into the center of town would help. The
new Fall festival is a big success partly because of its central location. The concerts held at Memorial park were not well
attended. There was no parking, and there were the irate neighbors who did not want it in their neighborhood. A few
blocks can make all the difference.
I wish there was more to do in Reading, at least on a Friday or Saturday evening - particularly to make it a nice place to
stroll in the evening.
If there is an email or something that tells about these programs, I don't know about it. How do you disseminate
information?
As Reading resident, I see the town supporting Arts in the schools (which is wonderful) but they do not encourage
participation in the wonderful non-profit organizations in town. Acknowledgment and or acceptance by the public school
system and Town would be wonderful.
I am an artist living in Reading and searched for affordable studio space to rent this past year. I found nothing
affordable and ended up renting in Wakefield.
Appreciate the.interest the Town is taking in this area especially during these difficult economic times
The schools need to continue the work with our youth and the larger community needs to support the rest of the cultural
community.
I keep asking around town, what "theme" Reading could adopt that would attract businesses, visitors, events, and
investment. I think the cultural and arts organizations in town may have part of the answer. To invite businesses within
that theme, we as a Town first have to clear away some of the over-regulation that frustrates, homeowners and
businesses today. What can we (together) do or offer, that surrounding towns don't, that would give people a good
reason to visit downtown Reading?
Clearly I'm unaware of the organization and all the benefits it brings to the Town. But I'm very supportive and hope to
learn more.
Again, letting people know you exist and why, while holding public events that get your group recognized. Letting people
(of all ages)learn why/what you do and how it can enrich their lives and the community.
It is great to have the performance center at the high school, but, it is busy there. Reading needs some additional venue
equipped with well designed acoustics and public display space

how about shaded chess/checkers tables with benches around the common, memorial park, etc. fountain, not too big,
in the common
I would make more of these questions multiple choice: I don't really know what details to come up with for some of these
questions.
I have lived in Reading for 36 years. I have been a TMM for over 20. 1 have served on several boards and committees. 1
have volunteered in other ways. I hardly know you exist.

Carry in - Carryout ....Carry on the tradition.
Keep Reading Beautiful
The Goal of the Carry In - Carry Out Program is to:
® Foster a partnership between visitors and the parks
by encouraging all visitors to help maintain clean
parks.
9 Encourage visitors to bring reusable containers and
to recycle as much as possible.
® Increase the safety of each park by reducing the
number of bees, wasps and other pests generated by
rubbish left behind.
® Reduce the cost of removing trash and recycling from
the parks by redirecting limited staff resources to
other projects.
® Improve the appearance of the parks by removing
trash cans that detract from the beauty of the natural
environment.
Your cooperation means cleaner parks for everyone.
46
For the concept to succeed in Reading, the cooperation of all sports
league coaches and players is essential. Keeping our community's
parks clean is a healthy, environmental and economically smart
plan. We ask all park visitors join in the effort to keep Reading's
parks and playing fields clean, safe, comfortable, and inviting for
all.
For more information on this program, contact
www.readingma.gov
or visit
The. Reading Recreation leagues are critical to the success of the Carry
In / Carry out Program.
We are asking for everyone's participation'. A small effortby each team
during their game can add up to a huge benefit for all that use the parks.
Every coach is responsible for the rubbish and recycling their players bring
into the parks. As a.team member, each player is responsible for their own
carry in/carry out items. Prior to leaving the playing area, ensure that all
rubbish/recycling has been cleaned up.
47
Town of Bedford
Bedford has been trying to implement a carry in, carry out policy for many years:
Our DPW has always been opposed to providing barrels. I'd say at least the last
fifteen years, probably much longer we've been trying to implement this. It
doesn't work very. well because most people expect trash cans (both Bedford
people and visiting teams) and when they don't find anything, they often just
leave their items on the ground. We ask coaches to clean up after their practice
or game, but there is often a lot of garbage on the fields (and then, of course,
finger pointing... was it a school team or a rec team or who left the mess?). It's a
bit confusing for people because some town facilities (tennis courts, for example)
do have trash receptacles but other "facilities" such as fields do not. I understand
the DPW perspective that there is a good deal of work involved in emptying
barrels from multiple sites, but I don't see our success improving in regard to
people carrying their trash out.
Good luck!

We were surprised at how well it actually worked. We instituted the policy mainly
at our athletic fields ...not at our parks -etc. We sent out notifications to all the
youth sports groups, that use our fields,of the new policy. We had very few
issues on the fields where there were no barrels placed. Some of the fields are
located on school grounds, and the schools did not want to go along with the
policy--those places where we actually had trash barrels, were where the trash
problems continued!
Sports groups using our fields sign a field policy document, at the beginning of
each season, alerting them to a system of "fines" should any of the "rules" be
broken, and leaving trash behind became one of the: rules We take a deposit
from groups at the beginning of each sports season and withhold the deposit if
there are any violations, such as leaving trash.
Interesting to note* that in the places, such as picnic areas and playgrounds,
where we maintained the trash barrels, we continued to have "trash problems".
48
We are considering removing the trash barrels from the parks, but don't know if
we are there yet...
I hope that helps you. Good luck!

Towns of Hamilton-Wenham
The environmental group Hamilton -Wenham Green spearheaded the pilot
program. They had signs, a good amount of press, the OK from both towns (via
Selectmen) and many volunteers patrolling the parks.
The pilot did not make it into permanency fora number of reasons, but here are
the key things we will hit when we go at it again (which we will)
1) Make sure there is plenty of education -hit it early, consistently and hard -
marketing, schools, sports teams at all levels, town employees (DPW) other
volunteer groups, young mothers groups, dog walkers ( consistent complaints
about diapers and dog poop)
You will need to be clear on why you want to.try this and what benefits will it have
for park/field users? personal responsibility, save $ on pick up? tragedy of the
commons? what will resonate?
2) Make sure there is buy in at all levels -from town manager to park supervisor;
elementary ed having snack outside to High School sports -particularly coaches
We had an insurgency in the park DPW that undermined the program - amazing
how fast it can happen!
3) talk with other teams that use your fields (via rec department?) -urgent to
allow them time to figure out how to handle. This were an afterthought for us -a
mistake.
4) figure out how you are going to handle the program - remove trash barrels? If
you leave a recycling bin -it will fill with trash (and poop!) Public bathrooms
became a favorite dumping place!
49
5) signage is really important
6) measure results and report.
Hope that helps a bit -if you have Q- feel free to call me. 978-837-2012
Best of luck!

Yes, we have a carry in/carry out policy at our town beach,
2. Our Recreation Committee voted to make it a carry in/carry out facility.
We advertised that fact with signage at the facility, through press releases
and articles in the local paper, in our seasonal brochure, and just telling
folks.
3. We weren't recycling previously and still don't and our other facilities. It's
been too difficult to implement. People don't bother to separate and they
put dog droppings in the recycle bin, etc. I'm not going to make my
maintenance guys deal with that so we just don't recycle unfortunately.
4. Yes, the carry in/carry out policy has worked very well at that particular
facility. Sometimes We get trash in our restroom trash cans because
people don't want to bother taking their beach trash with them,. but in
general, it's been very successful. I'm

Hi Jane,
We do have a carry-in carry-out policy in Wakefield; we implemented it about 3
years ago. Every permit that we, had out has the policy on it; we also let every
group know about the policy via email when we receive their request. Honestly, I
think we have only had moderate success with: it, we still supply trash barrels at
every field and those get filled up before any team would even consider carrying
out their own trash. We have had instances with overflowing trash barrels but as
soon as we threaten a league' with a termination of their permit, those problems
seem to disappear. Whenever we have a group or family outing at a field, we
instruct them that all trash must be removed by them and the trash barrels can
not be used.
The DPW eliminated a majority of trash barrels, the only ones that remain are the
barrels near the exit/entrance of fields where they can be picked up and emptied
relatively fast. The trash barrels that were time consuming in emptying were
removed.
Hope this helps

Trash cans to be removed from many Island County parks
(COUPEVILLE)- Island County officials say trash
collection will end today at the most popular county parks
because of budget deficits.
Officials say the trash cans will be removed from the parks as
of today.
Island County officials hope park visitors will follow the
"pack-it-in, pack-it-out" rule when it comes to trash, and that
the island's vibrant volunteer community will pick up some
of the slack, not to mention some of the trash.
Trash cans already have been removed from Saratoga Woods
and the boat ramp at Mutiny Bay, and are expected to be
removed from Rhododendron Park near Coupeville and other
island county recreation areas.
On the south end of Whidbey Island, signs have been posted
announcing the end of trash collection at Freeland Park,
Double Bluff Beach, Dave Mackie Park in Maxwelton and
Dan Porter Park in Clinton.
In all, 35 to 40 trash cans will be removed from Island County
parks.

Possible Issues:
Dog Waste
Diapers
How do we notify visitors from other communities who may- not
know the "rules"?
When items are not "carried out", trash becomes a bigger issue for
our parks/forestry personnel. It becomes more work when it's all
over the ground than taking out the barrels of trash would have
been.
Do we institute the program as a pilot in one playground or town-
wide?
Do we take all barrels out of the parks and playgrounds and leave
them street side, or do we remove them altogether?
We would need to also remove all recycling bins (since they would
fill with trash).
How can we monitor the program?
The town had leverage associated with the rubbish/recycling
program- - their trash wasn't going to be picked up. What leverage
do we have with this program? For the sports teams it may be
easier to determine, unfortunately they are not the only ones using
the parks/facilities.

Town Manager's Report/Assistant Town Manager Report - The Town' Manager gave the
following report:
Administrative matters
® The Town of Reading hosted the National Guard deployment at Reading Memorial High
School Field House today - Tuesday February 15, 2011. The National Guard was truly
appreciative of the efforts of the Town, and particularly for the community support for
buying sweatshirts for each of the soldiers. The total cost of the sweatshirts was $9,000,
and the total amount of money raised to date is $11,335. The surplus will be kept in a
fund by the Town to be used at the request of the National Guard to assist the soldiers as
needed for items such as helping to pay for travel for emergency leave. I cannot
remember everyone to recognize for their efforts, but they include the Reading Police,
Fire, School, and Public Works Departments, as well as VSO Frank Driscoll and CS AA
Maureen Knight.

Proclamations/Certificates of Appreciation
Certificate of Recognition - Reading Co-Operative Bank's 125 Anniversary - Julie Thurlow,
President of the Reading Co-Operative Bank was present to receive the certificate.
A motion by Bonazoli seconded by Anthony to approve the proclamation for Reading Co-
Operative Bank's 125 Anniversary was approved by a vote of 4-0-0.
Discussion/Action Items
Presentation - School Recycling - Youth Liaison Jimmy Houston gave a presentation to the
Board on recycling in the schools. He noted that he has formed a Recycling Club and they meet
on Thursdays. They check each room to make sure there are two containers - one for paper and
one for bottles. He noted there are more bins than trash barrels in the school. They are working
on increasing knowledge and their goal is to eventually reduce the amount of trash.
Camille Anthony asked if there was any way to track the recycling and Jimmy Houston noted
that the bins are full every week -the club empties them every Thursday.
James Bonazoli noted that the next challenge will be to get the other schools onboard.
Joint Meeting with Cemetery Board re: Cemetery Garage - Cemetery Director Bob Keating and
Cemetery Board members Janet Baronian, Mary Vincent, Olive Hecht, William Brown, Ronald
Stortz and Elise Ciregna were present.
Town Engineer George Zambouras noted that the existing site is over 100 years old and has
insufficient room for storage of equipment and has structural deterioration. He noted that he
looked at Town owned property and impacts on neighborhoods.
James Bonazoli asked about the Oakland Road site and George Zambouras indicated there was
too much ledge and. it would be very expensive.
George Zambouras noted that he and staff looked at the following locations:
® Laurel Hill
® Forest Glen - would have to cut a new road through a wooded area and it is completely
surrounded by residents
® Charles Lawn - the building would displace existing grave sites
® Wood End - there is a security issue and it is at the far end of Town of Reading
• Audubon Road property
® DPW facility
The three locations to be considered are: Laurel Hill Cemetery, Forest Glen Cemetery and the
Town owned property on Pearl Street at Audubon Road.
Camille Anthony asked if the Audubon Road location could be screened and George Zambouras
indicated not ideally due to the change in grade.

56
Board of Selectmen Meeting - February 15 2011 - page 4
Bob Keating indicated that Laurel Hill is the best choice and Forest Glen is second choice. He
noted that we would save man hours by working out of a cemetery, rather than have to travel all
the way across town and the administrative files are kept in Town Hall across the street from
Laurel Hill.
Fred Van Magness, 43 Franklin Street, indicated he was in favor of building the cemetery garage
at the DPW facility instead of paying to build a toilet, office, etc. He doesn't want to see
duplication of facilities.
Camille Anthony showed interest in looking at the DPW garage immediately so DPW Director
Jeff Zager will be invited in to discuss this.
Establishing the Date of the 2011 Fall Street Faire - James Bonazoli noted that feedback from
three surveys show that the majority of people are'in favor of holding the Fall Street Faire on
September 11, 2011 as long as there is a commemoration for 9/11.
The Town Manager noted that he received a phone call from a resident who felt very strongly
against it.
Stephen Goldy noted that if the date is moved one week either way then they are -holiday
weekends. He also noted that he spoke with the Fire Fighters and they are in favor as along as
there is a service for 9/11.
A motion by Bonazoli seconded by Goldy to select the date of Sunday, September 11, 2011
for the 2011 Fall Street Faire was approved by a vote of 4-0-0.
Hearing - Traffic Issues: Main Street (Quick Stop) Parking Regulations -The Secretary read the
hearing notice. The Town Manager noted that the parking is very heavy due to Grumpy Doyle's.
Police Chief James Cormier noted that there are two 30 minute spots in front of CVS and they
work out fine. There is no problem with enforcement. He noted that there has been a change in
business in the area and if the Board grants the regulations then we might hear from Haven Street
businesses.
Dan Dewar, owner of Quick Stop; the owner of Quiznos and the owner of the Cleaners all
submitted petitions in favor of the parking regulations.
The resident from 129 Ash Street indicated there is never a parking space available and he is in
favor of the regulations.
Dennis Frasier from Colonial Manor noted that there are spaces in front of the VFW but they are
not striped. The Town Manager noted that ' once Mass Highway has signed off on the Main
Street project then the Town can stripe. Mr. Frasier also noted that he has traffic lights in this
driveway facing Ash Street and he never had that before.

Board of Selectmen Meeting - February 15, 2011 - page 5
John Hill, 2 Waverly. Road, noted there is never a space available when he goes there and is in
favor of the regulations.
Margarite O'Sullivan noted that she usually gets a spot in the morning, but later in the day there
are no spots. She also noted she is very happy with the 30 minute spots in front of CVS.
James Bonazoli asked if we could get an additional space in front of the businesses and Chief
Cormier indicated there is not enough room for three cars per engineering specifications.
Richard Schubert noted that he will not support the changes in regulations because then other
businesses will make the same request. He would consider looking at other zones.
Camille Anthony noted that it is not right for one business to take up every parking space. The
spaces are filled from lunchtime through dinnertime. She noted that the Town's parking
program is detrimental to these businesses. She said it is not business friendly to have one size
fits all. She suggests two 30 minute spots and indicated that will not hurt Grumpy Doyle's
business.
James Bonazoli noted he is in favor of two spots and suggests in front of 519 and 525.
A motion by Schubert seconded by Goldy to close the hearinLy on parking regulations on
Main Street was approved by a vote of 4-0-0.
A motion by Schubert seconded by Anthony to amend the Town of Reading Traffic Rules
and Regulations adopted by the Board of Selectmen on March 28, 1995, by adding to
Appendix A-4b" Parking prohibited during certain hours on certain streets - 30 minute
parking, 9:00 AM until 9:00 PM (Monday through Saturday)":
Main Street northbound - The two on-street parking spots along the curbing
adjacent to 505 and 519 Main Street
The motion was approved by a vote of 3-1-0 with Schubert opposed.

Preview Annual Town Meeting Warrant - The Town Manager reviewed the Town Meeting
Warrant.
Article 15 - Rescind Wetland Regulation Bylaw Richard Schubert noted that he is in favor of
streamlining the Bylaw instead of rescinding it.
James Bonazoli noted he sees no benefit in duplicating what the State requires, but he is in favor
of looking at it if need be.
Stephen Goldy noted that the Town Manager presented a budget reducing positions and
eliminating procedures: It will be hard to do shared services if someone new has to learn our
Bylaws.
Bill Hecht, Chairman of the Conservation Commission, indicated that no work, goes away if the
Bylaw is rescinded. He noted that the, same due diligence will need to be done.
Camille Anthony noted that she was on the Conservation Commission when the Bylaw was
passed. She is not ready to throw out the Bylaw just yet. She has concerns about flooding in
homes.
Stephen Goldy suggested that someone from the outside could take a look at the Bylaw.
Dave Mancuso from "Making Reading Better" (MRB) noted that studies can go on for a long
time - quoting "death by study." He indicated MRB is willing to support whatever is in the best
interest of the Town. Camille Anthony asked what MRB's mission is and Dave Mancuso noted
they look, at customer service and how the Town interacts. He also noted that complex,
confusing regulations create stress which makes it difficult to get things done.
Bill Hecht noted that preventing someone from doing something never makes, anyone happy.
James Bonazoli disagreed and said it is all in the approach. Mr. Bonazoli noted that the answer
may be no, but they don't have to walk away unhappy. He has talked to. many residents who
have anxiety over Reading regulations.
Article 17 - Amending Demolition of Historic Structures Bylaw - Richard Schubert indicated he
would like to strike this from the Warrant. He said the cost of this would be loosing historic
inventory.
Stephen Goldy noted there is a lot of question as to what is on the historic inventory and he is in
favor of moving it back to six months. He had friends who couldn't sell their house on Salem

Street because it was on the inventory. This does not wipe out the demolition delay, it will just
ease the pain.
The consensus of the Board was to talk to the Historical Commission.
Article 18 - Amending; Bylaw Regarding Outdoor Speakers - The Town Manager noted that it is .
a waste of time for the Building Inspector to enforce speakers at restaurants i.e. Bertucci's and
Longhorns. He does not recommend amending the portion regarding gas stations, just the part
regarding dining.
Richard Schubert noted that would be for restaurants where the sound cannot be heard in a
residential area.

I had the privilege and honor of attending the 26th Yankee Brigade send off ceremony held on
February 15th at the Reading High School. My brother, Jon Picard, and an Upton Fire Fighter,
Dan Lopez, are citizen soldiers of the 26th Yankee Brigade that have been deployed.
I was touched by the support of the Reading community; waving flags as the citizen soldiers
departed for their journey. I also want to acknowledge the support of the Reading town
government; use of the high school, Police & Fire Fighter presence, the Board of Selectmen
attending the ceremony.
On behalf of my family, the citizen soldiers and their families, I would like to express our
gratitude for the time and effort the Town of Reading put forth to support us. Thank you again
for remembering us at this particular time.
Sincerely,
G~

Re: PCB Assessment and Remediation Project Closeout
RMLD Substation 4
45 Causeway Road
MCP RTN 3-28717
CTW Project #5363
Dear Ms. Fink:
This letter has been prepared to apprise you of the results of the recent sampling and testing of
groundwater at the subject site and the next course of action from a state regulatory perspective.
On February 1, 2011 Cushing, Jammallo & Wheeler, Inc. (CJW) sampled groundwater fi-om the
three monitoring wells at the Causeway Road Substation. This represents the 9"' groundwater
sampling event since December 2009. The testing results were non-detect for polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCBs) and/or oil. This is great news and, in our opinion, it is now appropriate for the
substation to be "closed out under the applicable state' regulation (i.e. Massachusetts
Contingency Plan). The" data from this and previous groundwater sampling events plus the
recently completed soil remediation activities will be used to close out the site.
It is expected that the submission of the final report (i.e. Response Action Outcome Statement) to
the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MADEP) will occur in March 2011.
Please feel free to contact me at 978-368-6320 if you would like to discuss this matter further.
Sincerely,
INC.
