This meeting of the Arlington Select Board and Arlington Housing Authorities being conducted remotely consistent with Governor Baker's executive order of March 12, 2020, due to the current state of emergency in the Commonwealth, given the outbreak of the novel coronavirus. In order to mitigate the transmission of the virus and reduce risk of COVID-19 illness, we have been advised and directed by the Commonwealth to suspend public gatherings. And as such, the governor's order suspends the requirement of the open meeting law to have all meetings in a publicly accessible physical location. Further, all members of public bodies are allowed and encouraged to participate remotely. The order which you can find posted with the agenda materials for this meeting allows public bodies to meet entirely remotely so long as reasonable public access is afforded so that the public can follow along with the deliberations of the meeting. Ensuring public access does not ensure public participation unless such participation is required by law. This meeting will not feature public comments. If other members of the public do not provide comment, participants are advised that people may be listening who do not provide comment and those persons do not require to identify themselves. This meeting was set forward in Arlington Housing Authority is convening by Zoom as posted on the town's website identifying how the public may join. Please note this meeting is being recorded that some attendees are participating by video conference. Accordingly, please be aware that other folks may be able to see you and then take care not to screen share your computer anything you broadcast may be captured by the recording. Please also take care to adjust your screen or device name if you would like to speak in order for us to recognize speakers appropriately and develop accurate minutes. It is helpful for participants to see your full first and last name when calling upon you rather than a nickname. All the materials for this meeting except the executive session materials are available on the Novus Agenda Dashboard. We recommend members in public follow along the agenda as posted on Novus unless the chair notes otherwise. We're turning to the first agenda before we do so. Permit me to cover some ground rules for effective and clear conduct of our business and to ensure accurate meeting minutes. I'll introduce each speaker on the agenda after they conclude their remarks. The chair will go down the line and members will be inviting each by name to provide any comments, questions or motions. Please hold until your name is called. Further, please remember to mute your phone or computer when you are not speaking. Please remember to speak clearly in a way that helps generate accurate minutes. For any response, please wait until the chair yields the floor to you and state your name before speaking. Members wish to engage in colloquy. With other members, please do so through the chair taking care to identify yourself. Each vote tonight will be taken by roll call votes. And Mr. Chair, anything that you want to add to the remote script? Oh, I'm good, Joe. Thanks. All right. So the first order of business to open up our joint meeting of the select board in the housing authority is to amongst the chairs take a nomination for one chair to act as the chair for this meeting if we have any nominations. I nominate you too. Oh, sorry, Joe. Go ahead, Dave. Yeah, I just nominate John Hurdus taking the chair for the meeting. So I'm okay with that. Great. Second. All right. We have nomination by Chairman Metropolis seconded by Mr. Currow. Attorney Hyde? I'll just try to go through each board one at a time and I apologize in advance if I don't have members of the housing authorities. I usually do it in order of seniority and then the chair and the vice chair. So I apologize if I get any of this wrong but I'll start with Mr. Connor. Thank you, Brian. Yes. Ms. Preston. I'm sorry. Would you repeat that? I'm asking for your roll call vote on the nominee. Yes, I'm here. Thank you. Mr. I'm sorry, it's Tallanian. Yes, and yes, I vote yes. Okay. And Mr. Metropolis. Yes. Members of the select board. Mr. I'm sorry, Mrs. Mahan. Yes, thank you. Mr. D'Corsi. Yes. Mr. Diggins. Yes. Mr. Currow. Yes. Mr. Hurd. Yes. It's unanimous vote. So Mr. Griffin, are you aware of his power being restored at Q-TAC building yet? Mr. John, you just gotta unmute yourself. John, it has not been restored yet. Okay. I think the whole block is out over there. So Attorney Hine, do you have any recommendations or suggestions given the two of the applicants are at Q-TAC building? Thank you, Mr. Chair. This matter is within the joint board's discretion. The board would like to proceed with nominations, discussion and vote. I think the board should do so, but it wouldn't necessarily be unlawful, but it would seem in the interest of fairness to not afford any of the candidates who can be present because they have power, the ability to sort of present their case. So my recommendation is that if the board wishes to proceed, you proceed with nominations and discussion without hearing from the nominees themselves. If the board wishes to postpone, the board may also do that in its discretion. Mr. Metropolis. I recommend we postpone, John. Just in the fairness for everybody. I second it. So we have a motion to postpone from Mr. Metropolis, seconded by Mrs. Preston by a show of hands. Does anyone want to comment? Got anything before we vote? Okay. Attorney Hine. Mr. Chair, may I recommend do we, is your intention to postpone and then close this meeting and call and arrange another day offline? Yeah, I think at this point, we'd like to do it as soon as we can just because it's not there for a while, but that's fine. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Okay. Wait, could I have one thing? Yep. Mr. Chair, when the two respective chairs are discussing this meeting, if it's not a town meeting night, is there any way we could start at seven versus six just for my family considerations? But if it's, you know, if we can get it from six to seven or something else. So not saying you can say yes or no to that. If I just like to place after consideration. Yeah, that's fine. The only reason we chose six o'clock is because of town meeting. So that would make more sense. Certainly would make things easier in my nose. Question, John. Yes. Is it possible for these two people to dial in on their telephones and connect with us? I mean, whether or not you can connect with them, I don't know. No, I mean, I thought you could also dial in. Oh, you can. Definitely. If they have a phone and they're able to do it, whether or not somebody can get in touch with them and explain how to do that. Joanne? The problem is they spend a lot of time writing out notes that, I mean, they have no lights at all. I mean, they use their phone battery lights to get around. And I just think that would be, put them at a real disadvantage. And I know they've worked very hard on it. And it would be a shame that they couldn't participate. I mean, if they were on their phone, they couldn't see their notes. I agree. I agree. Yeah. I agree. Joanne? Yes. I'll work real close with you on tomorrow, just to reschedule as soon as possible, okay? And we'll take into consideration the seven o'clock time frame and see if we can get it done this week. We'll have to post it for what, 72 hours? Miss Dime, is that correct or what after that? Yeah, Thursday or Friday. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Likely Thursday. Yeah. Okay. So I'll work with you tomorrow, Joanne, to just try to get a date going. Okay. If folks are ready for a roll call, I'll take the roll call and the motion to postpone. Yes. Okay. Mr. Connor? Yes. Ms. Preston? Yes. Mr. Talanian? Yes. Mr. Mitropoulos? Yes. Mrs. Mohan? Yes, thank you. Mr. DeCorsi? Yes. Mr. Diggins? Yes. Mr. Kuro? Yes. Mr. Hurd? Yes. Mr. Kuro? Thank you. So now we just need a motion to adjourn. Move to adjourn. My favorite. Second. I'll be faster this time. Mr. Connor? Yes. Ms. Preston? Yes. Mr. Talanian? Mr. Muka? Yes. Thank you, sir. Mr. Mitropoulos? Yes. Mrs. Mohan? Yes, thank you. Mr. DeCorsi? Yes. Mr. Diggins? Yes. Mr. Kuro? Yes. Mr. Hurd? Yes. It's your unanimous vote. Thank you.
