Wednesday, June 1, 2011
Meeting called to order at 7:40 p.m. in the Downstairs Conference Room at Town Hall.
Members resent: Phil Pacino, Jack Russell and Dolores Carroll.
Also Present: Town Manager Peter Heckenbleickner, Town Clerk Laura Gemme and Town Counsel
Ellen Callahan Doucette.
The meeting began with a review of Articles 5, 6 and 7 to confirm changes made at the last meeting.
Completion of the recodification of Article 8 was the goal of the meeting, and the first amendment
was to insert the words "or its designee" after "the Board of Selectmen" wherever it appears within
the article, so that it now reads, "the Board of Selectmen or its designee".
Additional changes were made and will be made as follows:
Bullets replaced numbers previously used in the first and second paragraphs of
Section 8.1.2.
- The second paragraph in Section 8.1.5 was deleted.
- AOC was spelled out as "Animal Control Officer" in Section 8.8.1.1.
- Sections were renumbered, where necessary, to ensure proper placement.
- Attorney Doucette will review Section 8.5.2 to see if the responsibility lies with the
Board of Health instead of the Board of Selectmen.
- Fines will be addressed in the near future so that proper amounts can be established.
- Definitions to be reviewed to see which need to be added and which will be
eliminated.
Section 8.7.3 had the title "Protrusion Into Roadway Prohibited" added.
- Section 8.7.5.1 "Determination and Notification" will also be reviewed by Attorney
Doucette to see if it's legally accurate.
Bullets were deleted from various titles and several other modifications were made to
complete the recodification for the evening.
Minutes #298 were read, and on motion of Phil Pacino, seconded by Jack Russell, were accepted by
a vote of 3-0.
9:55 p.m. On motion of Dolores Carroll, seconded by Jack Russell, the meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,
