1.0 Kluk called the meeting to order
at 6:00 p.m. in the Town Hall.
2.0 Kluk handed out copies of the
newest version of the draft Services and Facilities chapter (version 9), which
we reviewed. We went through the 4 pages of the document that had changes made
to them. Ed Thayer had proposed some new language in the Emergency Management,
Public Works and Solid Waste sections. We also checked the document for typos
and capitalization.
Page 3 – Thayer proposed new language and we are all
OK with it. We found a few typos and added commas.
Page 4 – Thayer added the word ÒcurrentÓ, we decided
we need to clarify with Ed about the road section where he says Òall
remainingÓ, Schwartz will check with him tomorrow and we will correct according
to what he says.
Page 5 – We will remove the ÒsÓ from the end of
ÒtheseÓ remove ÒtheÓ before Lempster Mountain Road, and spell out seven and two
in the bridge section.
Page 6 – Kluk shared ThayerÕs suggestions, all agreed
with them.
In the Goals and Recommendation sections - On Goal A-4 we removed the word additional, and Goal C-4 was
modified by Thayer and we agreed to the changes. Terani brought up the
suggestion he had made previously for Goal B, a statement about the housing of
the cruiser at the Old Highway Garage. Kluk explained that the committee felt that
including it in the goals was too specific and we felt it was covered in the
chapter discussion. On Goal D-4, Kluk said this is a suggestion by both Thayer
and Crandall, we all agreed to it.
Terani asked about the shortening of the
language he suggested for the Education section. Kluk said the group felt it
was covered in the Historic chapter but we will add that the present school
Òcurrently serves preschool through fifth grade.Ó
Gilbert
made a motion to accept the changes to the Facilities and Services chapter with
final tweaks of typos and punctuation (and the clarification of the one
statement about class VI roads we will get from Thayer, tomorrow). Schwartz
seconded and all voted in favor.
The
committee felt no changes needed to be done for the Energy Chapter and we will
present it to the Planning Board as-is tonight.
3.0 No new meeting date was set
for now.
4.0 Meeting was adjourned at 6:23pm.
Respectfully submitted,
Nan Schwartz
Planning Board Secretary
