 Good evening and welcome to the Board of Selections meeting for April 2017. We have a short agenda this evening as we all know it's the opening night of town meeting We're all trying to make our way through so we can get get get downstairs as I mentioned the last time I do like to open with and set the stage with just a small piece of inspiration I took this out of the Autism newsletter from Dr. Woods newsletters She had a quote from Aristotle which seems appropriate for tonight It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it This is Aristotle. It seems appropriate as we move into town meeting tonight So moving on we move on to the agenda to First item on the agenda is approval of the sale of 1,100,000 dollar water bond to the Massachusetts water resource authority We have mr. Carmen our treasure and collector of taxes and welcome back. Thank you. Thank you That was self-explanatory. It was good. So I'm here tonight to ask for your approval on the sale of a 1.1 million dollar water bond for the MWRA This is the annual borrowing where you know, we send a whole bunch money the end of our MWRA And then they let us borrow 1.1 million of our own money basically interest-free over 10 years small Administrative correction that mr. Carrow brought up to me this morning and the information I had sent you last week I went to the nose agenda is there was a discrepancy between the number on the actual bond in the word So the numbers are right 1.1 million the word actually said 1 million 100,000 which would be about $99,900 short and so So we worked on that with bond council the document that we have in front of you for your signature Is the correct word and number so those those line correctly, but I just I figured I would bring it up for you Thank you very much. Does anyone have any questions or comments mr. Dunn you get the bond council speed do I get the bond? Haven't seen it yet Is that that difference Seconds any further questions from Mr. Carmen?

It's gonna be nice It's great. Great. Okay. Any further questions or comments? All those in favor I All opposed. Thank you very much. Congratulations and welcome to Arlington. Thanks for choosing Arlington Okay, next we have traffic rules and orders other business first We have a request for a second space a handicapped parking sign at 107 Varnum Street Vincent Bozzie Bozzie, Jr. Is mr. Bozzie here? I have a motion for no action by Ms. Mahan. Do I have a second second by mr. Dunn? Mr. Dunn has a question. I had a comment So my comment is having read so I'm happy to agree with no action I would make that motion myself based on the report. However If there was a different I'd like to leave it open personally if they come back with another Under like what so there's only one car registered at that address And if there's something that makes sense where they really do need two cars But only that one of them is registered there's an explanation that we don't know about I would be willing to listen to an alternate Yep, I would agree with that in terms of listening to it, but also recognizing that the board has as of right now on our overnight parking handicap parking Whether it's one or the other if it's not contained in front of the property in which the vehicle will be parked number one that we can't infringe upon another residents and then the second would be This additional caveat that this is a hand They already have one handicap parking spot in front of the house It does not mean that that specific Person who came in with that specific license that is registered to that home anyone with the handicapped Placket can park there. So I certainly be Excuse me as mr. Dunn says willing to entertain anything in the future about recognizing that We've done the same in terms of people that have two three families Sometimes we've granted two spaces only because it's not in front of another residents, but So thank you, mr. Dunn for seconding no action again based upon Lieutenant Conway's report Thank you very much any other questions or comments hearing none on the on the motion might miss mahan the second I'm mr. Dunn of no action all those in favor. I all opposed and soon animus Next we have requests for approval public art display a minute man bikeway in this list Cecily Miller and Adrienne Arch I don't see them. I'm sorry, mr. Yeah, please. Please mr. I Expect them perhaps they thought we were beginning at 715. Could we maybe come back if they come after covering some other agenda items? Yeah, I'd say if we covered let's let's move To the table it yeah, okay, we'll table that all those in favor. Hi, okay We're tabling that and if they come then we'll hear it. Otherwise, we'll have to take it up at the next Okay warrant review warrant article hearings. We have one that was on the agenda We had one as an emergency addendum. Let's first take up article 16, which is a Bylaw amendment addition of certain delinquent municipal fees and fines to be a lean on real estate tax account is Yes, mr. No, please Mr. Hyman mr. Chairman this article was inserted by the former treasurer at the request of the former treasurer mr. Gilligan my understanding is that essentially the Presentation wasn't put together to come in front of this board During our warrant article hearings Accordingly I consulted with the current treasurer mr. Carmen and the deputy treasurer mr. Morse who don't feel like we need to there's there's no reason that we need to pursue this particular article right now and They're comfortable with a vote of no action and given this board's general policy that if someone doesn't come in front of them with a specific proposal On a to vote upon that we usually take a vote of no action So that's the though the skinny of it move no action second Did you have anything you wanted to add mr. Carmen? I agree with everything that Town Council said But we will come back in the fall with it. I just think our problem my problem at the moment is it seems Insulting to the voters and the residents of this town to just sort of sneak it in right now Because everybody knows when the Arctic warrant articles are being heard and they they're not being heard You know 45 minutes for the first town meeting. So while I think the matter needs to be addressed Yeah, it's not of such urgency that we can that we cannot do it in this in September or whatever the next town meeting is All those in favor the motion by mr. Grilly second by mr. Burnham no action All opposed Okay, there's a vote of no action with the permission of the board. I'm going to take up There was an emergency addendum for warrant article hearing for article 27 acceptance of legislation special education reserve fund Which Was put on today it was one item that also was not I I think fully prepared during the the warrant article hearing period We can discuss mr. Dunn. I did not mean to interrupt. I apologize. Okay, so It's article 27. Yeah, and We're not going to get to 27 tonight. I don't think yeah And Wednesday is our special town meeting and so it seems to be unlikely that we get to it for 27 So I would certainly prefer if it's possible I don't know there may be an urgency that I don't understand that we defer this until next Monday because then we can Do it as a regularly posted? Article not immediately it'd be something where we would it would be a moment time where we're having the hearing and then we're like making a Recommendation and then I could go to the floor that night, but at the same time And I think I believe also we can reasonably discuss it tonight But I would prefer that we not defer any actual decisions until a regular meeting Unless there's an urgency that I don't understand do we would we have a quorum on if we came on at 730 on Wednesday? Oh Monday, oh Monday. I'm sorry I Don't want to head off any discussion today if there's any that we had to do So I don't need to I don't mind discussing it today So I so that's my only hesitation of making that motion is I just don't want to preclude us from talking about it right now Mr. Manager, do you have anything you wanted to I'm comfortable with that We shouldn't say this but I'll say it I think the reason we were looking to do it tonight was we are putting together a supplemental Selecting the report with the vote that was just taken some revolving fund appendix information I believe one other piece of information. So we were going to put it in there, but that's not I Don't think that is reason enough to push it based on the reasons that you put out Okay, would we have a quorum if we were to come here at 730 next Monday? We believe Okay, do you want to put that in the form of motion? I move that we move article 27 to our agenda on Monday At 730 730 yeah, the chair gets to decide when the meeting happens Okay, we'll let you all know. We have a second Okay, any further comments on that Okay on a motion by mr. Dunn and seconded by Ms. Mahan to postpone the warrant article hearing on article 27 until May 1st Monday May 1st Likely at 730, but to be determined all those in favor. I all opposed And lastly we have correspondence received we have a request for to our parking limit on Broadway from route 16 to Silk Street Veronica white 32 Silk Street and we have a request for no left turn sign Dr. Timur Kaya yontar Tom meeting member precinct 758 Bates Road Do I have a motion? This Mahan moves her seat to have a second Second my mr. Burned we have any further discussion or referrals that we'd like to make on these Yeah, if you if you want to refer as a board both to me I'd take them to quarry and have the traffic Take that as a motion Okay, was that okay to add that to your motion for receipt Okay on a motion by Ms. Mahan second by mr. Burned to receive correspondence and refer to the The town manager for further investigation any further comments all in favor. I all opposed Okay, it is it's unanimous We don't have no business on here. So there we go What is the proper form I need a motion yes, you've got it Motion that the board of select will now reconvene and convene down Concurrent with the starting of the annual town meeting at 8 p.m. That we remain in session if there are any votes needed by this board of select men to be conducted on the rules is Guided to us by town council and the town moderator and that this board of select men Adjourn its meeting concurrent with the adjournment of the annual town meeting for any needed votes at town meeting Okay, all those in favor I all opposed okay, we're now adjourned to reconvene concurrent with the town
