Meeting Minutes June 27, 2017
Recreation Commission Offices - 6:30 PM
Call to order at 6:40 PM
Members: Peter Pescatore, Katie Holden, Dick Karoff and Lisey Good by phone.
Administrative Support: Jenna McCarthy
Presenting: Katie Dugan Long Range Planning
Katie presented the population analysis developed by the Long Range Planning
Group that broke down the historic resident makeup over time by age blocks
describing the methodology used and the relevance for forecasting. The data did
not include any projections for future growth by the group.
Water Commission - Rolf Gjesteby was unable to attend. Peter will contact Rolf to
arrange a future meeting.
Community Input Meeting: the committee selected Wednesday July 26th as the
evening to hold the meeting at the "Gallery" Meeting Room in the Library from
6 - 8 PM. Jenna will schedule the room. The committee discussed the various social
and media channels that the press release, announcing the meeting,will be posted
to. Lisey urged the committee to also take the opportunity that the communication
campaign, for the community meeting, presents to include the link to the survey to
encourage additional input. The committee adopted the proposal. Content for the
meeting and the communication rollout will be the major agenda items for the next
meeting.
The committee asked for an update from Brendan on the progress of their sections
of the updated OSRP. Peter will contact Brendan and set up a review or report back
on the progress.
Because we agreed to open the survey input again the discussion on the survey
results was postponed. Since the survey asked most of the same questions as the
prior effort Peter will compare the preliminary results to the prior plan survey to
identify major directional changes that may become specific objectives of the plan.
It appears that there is no common evening meeting day that would currently yield
a quorum therefore the committee proposed a morning meeting for Monday July
10th from 9 - 11 AM. Dick moved to approve, Lisey 2nd -Approval was voted 4-0
The chair asked if there was any other business and there being none noted asked
for a motion to adjourn.
At 7:55 PM Dick moved to adjourn, Lisey 2nd. Approval was voted 4-0.
Respectfully Submitted 6/28/17
