A
C
B
Vice
president
d'amico
yeah,
president
gosling
here
there's
a
quorum
on
record.
What's
work
sad
citations.
A
Okay,
as
everybody
knows,
the
last
council
meeting,
we
passed
the
second
reading
of
ordinance
2016-15,
which
was
brought
to
us
really
by
sad,
which
is
students
against
destructive
decisions.
A
A
group
of
children,
teachers
and
state
officials
were
all
involved
in
getting
this
audience
to
us
and
working
very
close
with
us
having
dinners
inviting
parents,
leaders
of
the
community,
the
police
department
and
whoever
else
state
representatives
state
senators
just
to
start
working
on
this
ordinance.
A
A
A
B
D
A
Okay,
resolve
that
the
westworld
town
council
commends
all
of
you
for
your
commitment
to
the
students
against
destructive
decisions
in
their
goal
of
making
the
community
aware
of
the
dangers
of
flavored
tobacco
products
and
the
way
advertisers
entice
youth
to
try
to
buy
them.
Your
exemplary
dedication
and
hard
work
made
it
possible
for
the
town
council
to
pass
an
ordinance
banning
this
sale
of
flavored
tobacco
products
in
the
areas
of
west
warwick
stores.

I
Hi
I'm
bailey
durio.
I
am
the
president
of
this
sad
chapter
and
I
would
just
like
to
give
you
all
sorry.
I
would
like
to
say
a
huge
thanks.
You
guys
have
been
phenomenal
working
with
us
hearing
what
we
had
to
say.
It
really
means
so
much
to
us.
We
created
a
little
card
for
you
just
a
huge
thank
you
it's.
This
has
been
an
amazing
experience.
A
K
Good
evening,
thanks
for
affording
me
a
few
minutes
to
review
the
results
of
the
town's
financial
audit,
the
report
was
issued
on
the
15th
of
february
later
than
was
planned.
We
had
some
abrupt
and
unexpected
turnover
in
our
office.
We
had
to
redeploy
another
team
to
complete
the
engagement.
We
want
to
thank
management.
Town
school
everyone
involved,
cooperated
with
us,
provide
us
with
all
the
access
all
the
answers
to
all
the
questions
we
had,
so
we
spent
a
few
minutes
going
through
and
we
provided
a
brief
slide
deck.
K
The
town's
fund
balance
for
the
fiscal
year
decreased
by
a
little
over
a
million
fifty
thousand
dollars.
The
budgeted
change
was
an
increase
of
200
000..
As
of
june
30th
of
last
year,
the
undesignated
fund
balance
was
just
over
453
thousand
dollars.
That
number
represents
less
than
one
percent
of
the
operating
budget,
and
I
think,
as
everybody
knows,
that
level
is,
you
know.
Well,
below
the
healthy
benchmarks
of
eight
to
sixteen
percent
of
expenditures.
K
That
being
said,
the
performance
issue
is
actually
better
than
what
was
projected
in
the
five-year
recovery
plan.
So,
while
the
news
isn't
great
it's
better
than
what
was
planned,
you
can
see
on
page
four,
that
of
the
slides,
there's
a
diagram
charting
the
the
fund
balance
of
the
general
fund
for
the
last
six
years,
and
you
can
see
that
far
right
column
how
it's
been
decreased
down.
The
blue
is
that
undesignated
or
free
unassigned
fund
balance
portion.
K
Not
to
dwell
on
the
negative,
some
highlights
results
of
operations
for
the
year
contributing
to
that
decrease
in
fund
balance.
Revenues
were
below
budget
by
just
over
791
000
property
taxes.
The
collection
of
property
taxes
was
the
bigger
biggest
driver
in
that
two
factors.
In
there
there
was
a
lag
of
collection
and
prior
year
balances,
as
well
as
the
current
year
as
budget
assumptions
were
not
met.
The
budget
assumption
was
for
97.5
of
the
assessment
to
be
collected
that
came
in
just
96.9,
while
it's
bad
news
for
this
fiscal
year.
K
K
So
expenditures
were
just
260
000
above
appropriated
amounts.
There
were
half
a
dozen
areas
where
there
were
some
significant
variances.
However,
looking
at
that,
we
did
not
come
to
the
conclusion
that
there
were
any
systemic
weaknesses
in
the
budget
process
or
control
over
expenditures.
I
was
largely
one-time
items
things
that
will
not
likely
reoccur.
K
Going
further
to
page
seven,
the
school
department
they
ended
the
year
with
an
unrestricted
fund.
Balance
of
the
unrestricted
fund
had
a
fund
balance
of
just
over
4
million
275.
K
a
little
over
4
million
of
that
is
committed
for
educational
purposes.
The
rest
of
that
is
unspendable
as
it
represents
deposits
and
prepaid
expenditures.
That
fund
balance
is
an
accumulation
of
all
prior
year
balances
and
does
include
their
current
year
increase
of
a
million
92
000
for
the
year.
K
K
A
K
K
Right,
it's
not
being
you
know,
it's
not
being
fertility
spent
on
anything
that
isn't
going
to
result
in
long-term
benefits.
I'll
take
a
look
up
there.
You
see
the
improvements
going
on
the
next
slide.
On
page
nine,
the
rating
agencies
really
look
at
the
school's
general
fund
and
unrestricted
fund
as
on
a
combined
basis.
K
So,
while
that
chart
earlier
on,
the
general
fund
certainly
shows
the
general
funds
fund
balance
coming
down
the
chart
on
page
9
really
shows
the
combined
results
of
fund
balance,
and
you
can
see
that
at
least
for
the
past
three
years.
The
combined
fund
balance
has
really
been
about
that
6
million
dollar
balance,
which
is
again
good
news
for
the
town
as
a
general
fun
as
a
town
general
fund.
It
continues
to
recover
and
rebuild
its
own
surpluses
as
the
school
spends,
some
of
theirs
down
on
capital
going
forward.
L
I
just
want
to
add
one
point
to
that:
the
five-year
plan
that
was
developed
you
know
a
few
years
back
did
actually
look
at
the
school
and
the
town
combined.
So
again,
that's
what
the
region's
agencies
look
at.
That's
what
we
actually
had
planned.
Four
in
you
know
the
five-year
plan
as
well.
K
Moving
on
to
page
10,
we
have
a
few
highlights
on
the
wastewater
authority
really
again
another
solid
year
of
operations:
net
income
of
848
thousand
dollars.
The
fund
has
net
assets
of
a
little
better
than
forty
two
million
for
twenty
seven.
Most
of
that
again
is
invested
in
capital
assets
piping
in
the
ground,
pumping
stations,
treatment
and
the
like.
They
do
have
an
unrestricted
balance
of
just
over
nine
point.
Two
million
dollars.
K
Going
out
to
page
11
the
town
pension
plan,
you
know
the
funding
status
has
varied
the
past
three
years.
It's
hovered
around
that
18
19
percent.
K
The
funding
percentage
shown
on
the
financial
statements
is
based
on
the
fair
value
of
the
assets.
As
of
the
reporting
date,
where
the
actuarial
evaluation,
the
actuarial
certificates,
those
actuarial
values.
Those
changes
are
smooth
over
a
period
of
years,
so
those
assets
have
different
values
on
the
actuarial
method
than
the
financial
data
method,
but
we
did
present
both
of
those
in
here
just
for
for
information.
K
At
the
end
of
2016,
the
net
pension
liability,
the
liability
that's
out
there
that
has
not
been
covered
by
invested
assets
is
just
over
127
million
dollars,
certainly
the
biggest
number
in
the
financial
statements.
I
think
we
mentioned
it.
Last
year
it's
been
discussed
at
length
for
for
years,
the
funding
has
been
budgeted
for
the
past
two
years
at
100
of
the
annually
required
contribution.
That's
been
based
on
the
preliminary
actuarial
reports
for
those
two
years.
K
There
have
been
some
adjustments
in
the
final
reports,
so
the
the
funding
was
as
near
to
100
as
could
be,
but
there
were
some
small
adjustments,
certainly
in
prior
to
2015.
K
Those
contributions
were
nowhere
near
the
required
contribution
investment
earnings
for
the
last
two
years,
since
the
implementation
of
the
new
pension
standard
have
been
slightly
below
the
actuarial
assumptions,
2016
a
little
better
than
2015.
As
you
can
see
on
the
slide.
K
The
this
chart
on
page
13,
I
think
it
really
goes
to
show
again
those
15
to
16
years,
where
those
columns
in
blue,
representing
those
actual
contributions
of
little
over
eight
million
dollars.
You
can
compare
that
to
where
that's
been
in
the
previous
eight
years.
You
know,
while
the
general
fund
did
have
a
decrease
in
fund
balance
this
year.
You
know
it
really
meant
its
full
funding
obligation
for
the
long-term
liabilities.
L
If
I
could
just
add
one
point
to
that
as
well,
that's
another
item
that
the
rating
agencies
will
look
at,
because
that
was
one
of
their
concerns.
Initially,
when
we
first
had
some
decreases
in
our
credit
rating,
was
that
the
pension
was
not
being
fully
funded.
So,
in
addition
to
meeting
the
obligations
of
the
union
contracts,
we're
also
funding
that
pension
system.
K
E
E
So
what
we're
doing
is
we're
prolonging,
even
though
we're
giving
8
million
to
the
pension
fund,
you're
still
19
and
a
quarter
percent
funded.
It's
not
going
up,
it's
not
going
down,
and
my
concern
is
in
10
years
from
now.
If
we're
going
the
way
we're
going,
how
much
do
you
see
the
taxes
going
unsustainable
and
this
being
unsustainable?
E
E
K
It's
been
offset
somewhat
by
the
lag
in
investment
earnings,
because
certainly
the
design
is
that
your
contributions,
as
well
as
investment
earnings,
are
going
to
continue
to
grow
that
fund.
Certainly
the
money
going
in
the
fund
is
more
than
enough
to
pay
current
benefits.
So
you
know
you
are
growing
assets.
The
vested
liabilities
are.
L
And
if
I
could
just
add
a
little
bit
to
that,
we
did
actually
just
broke
down
like
randall
mike's
here
as
part
of
the
work
that
was
done
back
in
2014.
L
The
state
pension
committee
did
actually
look
for
any
plans
and
critical
status
to
present
a
funding
improvement
plan.
So
some
of
the
former
council
members
will
remember
that
we
did
actually
produce
a
document
and
come
up
with
a
plan
to
have
the
the
actual
fund
funded
at
a
level
of
60
percent
within
a
20
20
to
20
20
year
period,
so
that
again
it
would
be
out
of
a
critical
status
and
it
wouldn't
be
this
the
same.
Anybody.
A
A
What
I
just
said,
though,
is
right
now,
if
we're
putting
in
8
million,
then
it's
10
million,
and
if
you
look
at
the
night
hot
report
that
you
have
a
copy
of
okay,
I'm
just
throwing
out
years
yet
2025
the
contributions
were
only
requiring
six
to
seven
million.
It
starts
reducing.
So
it's
not
it's
as
heavy,
so
you're
right
that
we
have
to
get
through
a
hurdle
to
get.
A
E
E
You,
you
know,
that's
a
good
five-year
plan,
that's
not
gonna
happen
as
long
as
the
five-year
plan,
you're
gonna
have
a
tax
increase,
and
in
ten
years
when
I've
let
and
mike
riley
looked
at
it.
He
said
in
ten
years
you
people
are
looking
at
over
a
forty
percent
tax
increase
on
your
on
your
homeowners,
not
counting
what
it's
going
to
be
on
the
businesses.
E
So
that's
what
concerns
me
where
it's
so
unsustainable.
I
mean
the
state
gave
us
a
plan,
the
states
no
better
than
anybody
else,
they're
worse
off
than
we
are.
So
I
didn't
really
care
or
I
wouldn't
take
any
advice
from
them
to
be
honest
with
you.
If,
if
they
were
wanting
to
do
my
business,
I
back
off
from
them.
If
I
can.
L
Just
add
something
to
that
we
actually,
although
the
state
was
working
with
us,
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
the
plan
was
our
own
doing
in
our
own
development.
You
know
they
gave
us
some
advice
on
some
of
the
guidelines
and
whatnot,
but
some
of
it
was
our
own.
It
was
more
of
our
own
document
than
them
forcing
it
on
us,
and
one
of
the
things
that
we
are
doing
is
the
opec.
By
funding
the
opeb
pre-funding,
the
old
public
most
communities
are
not.
L
E
It's
just
my
concern.
It's
just
my
concern
that
the
taxes
are
unsustainable.
The
pensions
are
unsustainable.
Everybody
knows
you
can't
be
45,
50
years
old
and
retire
with
five
six
thousand
a
month
for
life.
I
don't
care
what
anybody
says
whatever
they
want
to
believe
whatever
they
don't
want
to
believe.
It's
unsustainable
and
maybe
15
years
down
the
road
they're
going
to
say
you
know.
K
I
mean,
certainly
you
know
the
plan
for
funding
the
pension
does
get
it
to
a
fully
funded
status.
There
is
a
crossover
point
where
the
accumulated
earnings
will
start
funding
more
of
the
contribution
that
should
turn
around
it's
a
difficult
pill
to
swallow,
but
not
addressing
the
pension
is,
would
be
a
catastrophic
disaster
much
sooner
because
just
that
pays
you
gold
costs.
M
M
L
Point
that
threshold,
but
in
the
meantime,
what
we'll
need
to
continue
to
do
is
do
things
similar
to
like
we
did
with
the
wind
turbines,
for
example,
the
money
that
we
are
potentially
saving
without
those
additional
costs
and
passed
on
by
national
grid.
Some
of
that
money
can
be
used
for
other
purposes,
and
that
was
like
yeah
right
exactly
right.
Exactly
you
know
it's
going
to
be
some
combination
of
trying
to
save
on
the
expense
side
and
minimizing
you
know
the
impact,
because
you
know
obviously
councilman
do.
L
A
L
A
N
Mr
council
president,
members
of
the
council,
remember
that
the
night
report
was
commissioned
not
only
by
the
talent
by
the
pension
board.
It
goes
out
25
years
by
statute.
The
five-year
plan
can
only
go
five
years,
five
years
out
because
that's
all
in
the
general
that's
what
the
statutes
will
allow
for.
Actually
special
legislation
was
introduced
to
allow
this
town
council
to
go
beyond
the
three-year
plan.
N
So
actually
the
five-year
plan
is
just
a
component
of
the
nighthard
plan,
but,
as
council
president
indicated,
we've
got
issues
regarding
monies
coming
in
that
maybe
did
not
exist
five
years
ago
that
are
coming
in
to
replace
certain
revenues
because
remember
if
you
go
back
25
years
when
the
pension
contributions
weren't
made.
That's
what
your
plan
can
shop
on
for
the
next
25
years,
when
new
revenues
are
coming
in
replacing
some
revenues
that
cannibalize
quote-unquote
profits.
So
the
surplus
goes
down
you're
going
to
catch
up
on
that
now
again,
councilman
padua
is
correct.
N
N
13.
Excuse
me.
N
Forward
we
went
with
a
five-year
plan
to
basically
keep
westward
on
a
short
leash,
because
nobody
knows
what
growth
is
going
to
be
over
a
five-year
period.
Time,
no
one's
going
to
know
what
new,
either
commercial
industrial
business
revenues
are
going
to
be
for
taxes
that
did
not
exist
before
you
don't
know.
If
this
you
don't
know,
if
the
stock
market's
going
to
be
healthy,
you
don't
know
if
the
real
estate
market
is
going
to
be
healthy.
N
L
And
just
to
add
a
little
point
to
the
to
the
bullpeb
or
the
other
post-employment
benefits,
that's
basically
the
retiree
costs
we
know
jim
is
going
to
get
to
that
next
slide,
but
for
the
new
council
members,
you
know
just
to
give
you
a
little
idea
of
how
that
works.
We
currently
have
retiree
medical
costs
that
we
do
a
pay.
Go.
We
pay,
we
pay
the
claims
as
they
occur,
with
having
the
opeb
trust
and
doing
the
pre-funding.
L
The
plan
with
that
is
to
eventually
be
able
to
have
those
benefits
paid
out
of
the
trust
and
not
paid
out
of
the
general
fund,
so
there's
an
opportunity
to
potentially
have
some
savings
down
the
road
off
of
the
general
fund,
so
there's
less
of
an
expenditure
and
then
less
need
for
revenues.
In
terms
of
you
know,
any
potential
tax
increases.
So
that's
a
step
in
the
right
direction
that,
to
be
honest,
a
lot
of
communities
are
not
doing
we're
one
of
the
ones
who
are
actually,
I
believe
we
might
be
funding
the
most.
L
So
you
know
that
that's
a
step
in
the
right
direction.
When
we
get
into
the
budget,
you
will
see
there
is
an
amount
that
will
be
in
this
year's
budget
as
well
and
as
long
as
we
continue
to
grow
that
eventually,
that
will
be
to
the
point
where
we
can
actually
take
some
of
it
and
pay
some
of
the
retiree
claims
from
that
trust
and
not
have
that
much
of
a
burden
on
the
general
fund,
whether
it's
a
half
a
million
dollars
or
a
million.
L
You
know
you're
going
to
see
how
that
how
that
fund
actually
builds
up,
but
right
now
what
we're
doing
is
putting
in
or
not
all
we're
doing,
but
we're
actually
putting
in
some
additional
money
to
be
invested
within
that
trust,
paying
the
retirement
costs
as
they
occur,
and
eventually,
five
or
ten
years
from
now.
At
that
point,
maybe
we
can
actually
stop
paying
from
the
trust
and
avoid
that
burden
on
the
general
fund.
So
it's
planning
for
the
future
to
avoid.
You
know
that
those
years
where
it
goes
up
high
in
the
pension
right.
K
K
The
one
caveat
with
that
is
part
of
those
three
and
five-year
plans
is
to
really
monitor
the
rate
of
return
on
the
investments
in
the
pension
and
opec
funds,
because,
certainly,
if
you're
at
a
seven
percent
or
seven
half
percent
discount
rate
and
you're
not
making
that
you
know
experienced,
studies
should
be
done
to
show
what's
the
true
rate
of
return.
Are
we
fooling
ourselves
with
that
contribution
rate?
The
discount
rate?
Is
that
deflating
or
whatever
our
contribution
really
should
be?
You
know,
certainly
that's
not.
You
know
long
term.
K
You
know
two
years,
there's
no
marker
here
since
the
new
pension
standard,
you
know
three
to
five
years
out.
If
those
lag,
the
returns
are
still
lagging.
The
assumption.
It's
probably
a
good
idea
to
take
a
look
at
that
and.
E
It's
not
only
that
too,
it's
also
growth.
How
much
growth
do
we
have
in
this
town?
How
much
room
do
we
have
for
growth?
We're
only
eight
square
miles,
there's
not
too
much
property
left
for
growth.
What
happens
when
that
growth
runs
out?
What
happens
when
a
business
comes
in
and
says
wow
my
taxes
are
going
to
be
50
grand
here
I
can
move
wherever
narragansett,
I'm
only
paying
10
000..
E
So
you
know
you,
I'm
just
throwing
it
all
out
there,
where
everybody's
thinking
you
know
we're
gonna
we're
gonna,
have
all
this
growth.
We're
gonna
have
all
this
20
interest
on
our
money.
We're
gonna
the
stock
market's
gonna,
go
to
twenty.
Eight
thousand
could
drop
to
nine
like
he
did
last
time,
then
we're
in
real
trouble.
But
where
do
we
go
to
get
that?
We're
spending
that
money
that
money,
91
million,
will
never
go
down?
That
91
million
is
only
got
room
to
go
up.
E
E
K
Moving
on
to
oppeb,
I
mean
I
think
john
mentioned
it.
You
know
the
time
ended
the
year.
The
opeb
trust
has
a
million
338
dollars
in
it.
That
is
again
one
of
the
largest
balances
of
a
hope.
I've
trusted
that
our
clients
have
certainly
most
are
continuing
on
a
pay-as-you-go
method
on
kicking
that
can
down
the
road.
L
Well,
the
the
nyhar
report
actually
gives
us
the
full
amount
of
what
should
be
pre-funded.
It's
not
a
recommended,
or
it's
not
a
required
amount
like
the
pension,
because
there's
different
standards
for
the
pension
than
there
is
for
opec
there's
not
as
many
restrictions
on
it.
It's
at
this
point,
it's
kind
of
like
an
early
warning
that
look.
This
is
your
liability.
This
is
what
you
should
be
putting
in,
do
something
about
it,
but
there's
nothing.
That's
actually
required
like
it
is
with
the
pension,
the.
D
Liability
is
54
million.
That's
what
we're
looking
at,
but
remember
when
we
started
the
negotiation
process
at
the
beginning
of
the
five-year
plan
and
a
big
piece
of
this
was
the
retirees
healthcare
we
had
29
different
blue
cross
plans.
We
were
administering
our
liability
at
that.
Time
was
about
150
million
so
by
150,
and
by
by
negotiating
the
changes
to
the
plans
now
and
into
the
future
and
and
including
higher
co-shares
and
various
other
mechanisms
that
we
included
in
this.
D
Putting
a
lot
of
the
current
employees
over
to
hsas,
we
were
able
to
reduce
that
down
into
the
50s,
so
it
made
a
huge
impact,
and
now
we
are
also
funding
the
opec,
but
not
spending
any
of
that,
so
so
that
trust
is
just
going
to
build
up.
So
that's
a
very
achievable
goal
for
us
to
get
that
to
a
point
where,
as
john
was
thinking
we'll
be
able
to
eventually
pay
for
retiree
health
benefits
right
out
of
that
trust.
D
K
All
right,
the
the
standards
for
the
pension
which
changed
two
years
ago,
similar
changes
for
oped
will
be
two
years
from
now,
so
that
liability
that
fifty
million
dollar
54
million
dollar
liability
will
be
shown
on
your
books
and
records
right
now.
It's
only
disclosing
footnotes
that
will
come
on
the
books,
the
same
way:
127
million
for
the
pensions
on
the
books.
K
K
We're
in
the
process
now
we're
finishing
the
single
audit,
the
compliance
all
of
the
federal
programs.
We
do
have
a
couple
of
recommendations
that
we
are
made
to
management
really
two
of
two-fold.
The
internal
control
standards
have
really
been
revised
over
the
past
couple
years,
there's
a
new
expanded
framework
for
internal
control,
which
goes
into
much
more
detail
on
documentation
of
those
controls,
how
those
controls
are
communicated
to
users
and
how
the
government
monitors
those
controls
internally,
not
relying
on
the
audit
for
that.
K
So
we're
making
a
recommendation
of
management
to
revise
this
documentation
of
all
its
internal
controls,
communicate
those
and
train
everybody
who
needs
to
know
about
those,
but
then
also
develop
a
plan
for
doing
assessments
of
those
on
a
cyclical
basis.
Each
year,
some
internal
testing
to
monitor
those
controls.
If
any
other
findings
come
out
of
the
single
order.
There'll
be
additional
findings
right
now,
we're
not
anticipating
any,
but
those
will
be
included
in
a
final
report
by
the
end
of
march.
M
Any
public
questions
I
might
have
a
quick
question
just
going
back
to
page
five,
and
this
is
just
in
passing-
I'm
not
holding
anyone
to
it.
I
think
I
spoke
to
fred
about
this,
and
maybe
john
you
guys
have
mentioned
unreceived
taxes
of
about
a
million
dollars.
Is
this
the
actual
number,
the
791?
Yes,
it
is
okay,.
L
Correct
because
there
is
a
there
is
a
60-day
period
of
time
in
july
and
august
when
any
collections
of
prior
year,
taxes
can
be
accrued
back
or
recorded
into
the
previous
fiscal
year.
So,
although
they
were
collected
in
fiscal
17,
we
could
accrue
them
back
to
16,
okay,
which
changed
that
number
thank
you,
and
as
far
as
the
as
far
as
the
presentation
that
jim
went
over
tonight,
this
will
be
on
the
website
tomorrow
on
the
town
website,
as
well
as
the
full
audit.
L
You
all
have
bound
copies
that
I
handed
out
with
this
tonight
and
that
audit
has
been
on
the
tom
website
and
we
will
put
this
presentation
on
as
well,
because
we
look
at
this
as
pretty
much
a
summary
for
someone
that
doesn't
have
the
time
to
look
through
the
entire
document.
At
least
this
will
give
them
some
of
the
highlights
and
all
the
other
prior
year.
L
Reports
are
all
there
as
well,
and
what
we'll
do
is
each
year
as
we
do
summaries
like
this,
we
will
continue
to
put
those
on
the
websites
as
well.
A
John,
just
out
of
curiosity,
I
know
last
year
we
were
getting
probably
on
quarterly
or
a
semi-annually
basis.
Delinquent
tax
note
reports.
L
I
haven't
received
a
little
while,
okay,
I
will.
I
will
work
with
rose
to
to
get
that
back.
F
L
And
what
we're
going
to
do
is,
as
I
mentioned
in
the
last
at
the
last
meeting,
my
intent
is
to,
at
the
second
meeting
of
each
month,
give
you
an
update,
a
financial
update
on
how
collections
are
running
compared
to
the
prior
year,
as
well
as
some
numbers
of
how
we're
doing
with
expenses
and
revenues.
As
you
all
know,
the
situation
I
currently
have,
where
I'm
going
to
be
out
for
some
time,
I
will
need
to
delay
that,
but
that
is
something
that
we
will
get
back
online
once
again.
A
And
getting
a
little
more
aggressive
than
ever
absolutely
just
recently.
I
know
people
who
haven't
heard
or
seen
anything
from
the
town
have
now
heard
or
seen
something
from
the
town
from
three
years
ago.
So
we.
L
Have
we
have
a
lot
of
confidence
in
in
rossi
and
the
work
they're
going
to
be
doing
and
we're
also
looking
to
possibly
add
additional
years
closer
to
the
more
current
years
and
not
but
obviously
not
to
give
them
the
current
year
tax
collections?
Because
we
don't?
We
don't
need
to
pay
that
fee,
but
we're
going
to
look
into
giving
them
additional
years
because
of
the
results
that
they've
yielded,
because
the
sooner
we
collect
that
it's
then
it
could
be
applicable
to
you
know
the
actual
year.
L
E
G
A
Six
percent
difference
in
tax
collection
inc
affects
us
by
700
700,
something
thousand
dollars
so,
but.
A
E
We're
I'm.
E
A
E
L
G
E
L
And
one
interesting
interesting
thing
about
the
collections:
when
you
look
at
the
collections
for
three
years
ago,
look
at
what
was
built
then
versus,
what's
been
collected
to
date,
we're
at
like
99
of
what
was
built.
It
just
took
us
a
two
or
three
year
period
to
actually
collect
it,
so
we
do
collect
it.
There's.
L
It
has
an
impact
on
the
fiscal
year
when
you
know
you
can
only
have
that
the
12
plus
the
three
months
to
actually
have
it
be
counted
for
your
financial
statements.
L
So
that's
why,
in
the
budget,
you
know
once
we
go
through
it,
you'll
see,
there's
a
current
year,
collection
number
and
a
prior
year
number,
and
that
prior
year,
number
represents
obviously
the
prior
years,
but
that
that's
where
we
we
hope
to
make
up,
for
you
know
for
the
collections
in
the
in
the
you
know
in
the
future
years,
but,
like
I
said,
we
have
much
more
confidence
in
you
know
in
rossi
that
they're
going
to
really
ramp
up
the
collections
for
us
and
and
help
us
to
collect
these.
This
taxes
quicker
so.
M
John
after
the
15
month
period
is
up
sorry
and
we
end
up
collecting
taxes
from
two
three
years
back.
Where
does
that
money
actually
go?
It
can't
be
put.
L
Back
into
the
budget,
it
goes
into
the
general
fund,
but
it
goes
into
the
prior
year
tax
revenue,
so
it
does
show
his
revenue
in
that
fiscal
year,
but
it
doesn't
show
in
the
current
shows
in
the
prior
year.
So
if
you
look
at
the
when,
when
you
look
at
when
you
see
the
budget,
once
we
get
into
the
workshops
you're
going
to
see,
we
have
a
current
year
collections
and
then
we
have
a
prior
year
and
then
we
have
an
interest,
but
the
current
year
is
just
what
it
is.
L
It's
that
current
year,
what
we
anticipate
the
tax
bills
to
be
and
what
we
expect
to
collect
within
that
15
month
period
on
those
taxes
and
then
the
prior
year
number
would
be
what
we
call
what
we
expect
to
collect
for
the
previous
years,
and
the
interest
is
just
the
interest
on
on
whether
it's
the
prior
year
or
the
current
year.
Okay,
so
that
that'll
be
much
more.
I
think,
once
you
see
the
budget,
you'll
you'll
see
the
difference
between
the
two
okay.
Thank
you.
K
I
really
like
I
mentioned:
the
shortfall
in
tax
revenue
was
really
a
timing.
Difference.
It's
not
like
there
wasn't
revenue
source,
it's
never
going
to
come
in
again.
It's
eventually
those
taxes
are
going
to
come
in,
that's
going
to
be
a
tax
sale
or
whatever,
so
they
will
come
in
it's
just
the
timing.
It's
not
there
now
to
count
as
an
asset.
This
way,
it's
not
as
a
component
of
my
family.
J
J
D
Way
we
had
the
legislation
drawn
up
and
the
way
it
was
approved
was
that
any
community
with
a
pension
plan
in
critical
status
may
negotiate
five-year
agreements.
So
it's
good
for
any
community.
That's
in
a
similar
stat
status.
We
could
do
the
same
thing
again.
If
that's
what
we
desire
to
do-
and
that's.
J
Where
all
the
negotiations,
because
because
that's
that's
a
key
key
component,
you
know,
plus
you
gotta,
you
know
you
already
talked
about
the
variables
that
are
there.
You
get
the
health
health
insurance,
that's
changing
and
how
that's
gonna
play
out.
So
there's
a
lot
of
variables
and
you're,
not
gonna,
know
until
you
get
to
that
point
in
time
and
and
that's
going
to
depend
on
the
town
manager
and
the
unions
and
things
like
that
to
keep
that
at
a
stable
situation.
E
J
B
B
A
A
B
A
Second,
discussion:
what.
B
A
Just
to
give
you
guys
a
heads
up
the
letter
from
barraville,
I
know
everybody
got
an
email
on
it.
It
was
supposed
to
be
on
tonight's
agenda,
but
it's
going
to
be
on
next
week's
agenda.
I
spoke
to
mike
he'll,
be
here
next
week
to
talk
about
that.
That's
just
looking
for
us.
Wes
walk
to
join
the
rest
of
the
cities
and
towns,
31
cities
and
towns
that
are.
A
E
E
I
don't
I
just
I
don't
know,
that's
like
west
walworth,
we
we
know
what's
best
for
our
constituents
and
we
vote
no
on
something
and
the
rest
of
the
state
comes
out
and
says:
oh
no.
They
they
need
that
over
there.
A
B
Resolve
that
the
attach
additions
in
the
amount
of
one
thousand
nine
hundred
forty
one
dollars
and
ten
cents
cancellations
in
the
amount
of
four
thousand
three
hundred
sixty
eight
dollars
and
thirty
three
cents
presented
to
the
tax
assessor
for
approval
of
the
town
council
in
accordance
with
article
25
section
5
of
the
westward
court
of
ordinance,
is
hereby
approved.
I'll.
E
G
E
G
G
B
E
I
E
Why
why
they.
I
I
E
Because
we
over
evaluated
them.
G
L
When
we
were
in
light
of
the
situation
where
I'm
going
to
be
out
for
some
period
of
time,
we
did
take
a
look
at
the
charter
to
see
in
the
event
that
something
needs
to
be
signed
from
a
financing
point
of
view,
not
not
talking
checks
but
from
a
financing
standpoint.
We
do
have
currently
have
the
bond
participation
notes
out
for
the
wind
turbines.
L
So
should
an
opportunity
arise
where
it's
something
that
we
want,
that
the
town
wants
to
act
on
quickly
and
I'm
not
available
to
sign
as
a
finance
director
or
the
treasurer.
As
the
charter
says
we
spoke
with,
I
spoke
with
karen
grandy
from
block
lord,
and
she
suggested
that
we
have
a
resolution
in
place
like
this,
so
that,
in
the
event
that
I
can't
sign,
fred
would
be
able
to
sign.
Although
he's
the
higher
authority
that
I
am,
there
are
certain
documents
that
call
for
the
finance
director
of
the
treasurer.
L
We
did
not
put
specific
names
in,
because
this
is
something
that
we
would
always
have
in
place
should
an
opportunity
ever
arise.
So
again,
it's
just
you
know
just
make.
L
A
Instance,
who's
the
guy
don.
L
So
this
isn't
so
much
of
an
appointment
as
it
just
in
the
in
the
absence
of
you
know,
if
I'm
not
available
to
sign
at
any
point
or
any
finance
director
that
the
town
manager
could
sign
and-
and
you
know,
bind
you
know,
bind
the
documents
accordingly.
So
again
we
just
thought
it
would
be
best
to
have
it
in
place
not
just
for
now,
but
in
the
future.
Should
anything
happen
with
any
other
finance
director
or
whatnot.
So
that's.
A
L
J
A
And
you
know
john,
I
want
to
put
you
on
the
spot,
but
everybody's
just
looking
at
me
like.
What's
going
on
out
there
and
john's
going
in
for
surgery
on
thursday,
and
hopefully
he
has
a
speedy
recovery,
but
he
will
be
out
for
a
few
weeks,
at
least
if
everything
goes
smooth
he's
hoping
to
be
back
in
six
to
eight
weeks
and
and
that's
and
that's
why
this
is
all
going
forward
today.
So
and
john
our
thoughts
and
prayers
and
thank.
L
You
thank
you
appreciate
it.
I
appreciate
the
support
that
everybody
that
the
council,
as
well
as
you
know,
the
directors
and
you
know
the
the
people
that
within
the
finance
department,
so
I'm
very
thankful
for
you
know
for
all
the
support
and.
E
L
Saying
I'm
looking
forward
to
getting
better
and
coming
back
because
you
know
I
know,
there's
a
lot
of
work
to
do,
especially
with
the
budget,
and
you
know,
as
I
as
I've
said
to
fred,
and
you
know
a
couple
of
the
council
members
during
the
budget
workshops
or
the
public
hearings.
If,
as
long
as
my
doctor
says,
I'm
able
to
do
whatever
I
can
do
I'll
be
more
than
happy
to
answer
any
questions
and
be
available.
I
wish.
L
Better
so
that
I
could
you
know,
especially
for
the
new
council
members,
to
help
them
through
the
you
know
through
the
through
the
process,
but
you
know
once
I'm
you
know
once
I'm
out
of
the
hospital
and
feeling
well,
you
know
I'll
try
to
do
my
best
to
answer
any
questions
you
guys
do
have,
but
you
know
they
did
suggest
that
I
take
the
time
to
you
know.
A
C
D
Okay,
so,
in
a
nutshell,
the,
as
you
all
know,
the
arctic
playhouse
purchase
the
old
masters
building
they're
in
the
process
of
renovating
that
they
just
received
a
300
000
grant
from
the
rhode
island
state
council
on
the
arts.
D
They've
requested
that
as
a
501c3,
an
important
component
of
the
downtown
revitalization
that
we,
the
council,
consider
authorizing
them
to
be
that
that
location
be
tax-exempt
to
enable
them
to
better
meet
the
demands
of
what
they're
gonna
have
to
spend
to
get
this
up
and
running.
So
we.
E
E
A
E
Yeah-
and
you
know
I'm
not
for
that-
I'm
not
for
that
one
hundred
percent-
I'm
not
for
that
one!
We've
done
it
before
last
year.
We
did
it
with
ty
talked
about
that.
D
Later
on
family
services,
last
year
we
did
with
tides
family
services.
So
it's
it's
been
done
in
the
past
and
that's
what
this
request
is
based
on.
It.
D
D
The
general
assembly
will
consider
it
they
they
have
a
hearing,
and
then
it
comes
back
here
if
the
general
assembly
authorizes
the
council
to
do
that,
then
you
have
to
actually
second
resolution
to
the
second
resolution.
So
all
right
so
I
mean
we
could.
A
I
D
D
E
I'm
having
a
problem
again
you're
on
a
five-year
plan,
and
this
is
one
of
many
things
that
we're
we
shouldn't
be
touching
anything
we
shouldn't
be
adding
anything.
We
shouldn't
be
subtracting
anything
and
we're
gonna
and
believe
me,
I'm
all
for
that-
that
the
playhouse
is
great
for
that
vicinity.
Right
where
it
is
it's
it's
a
great
thing
for
the
for
the
community.
It's
an
asset
to
our
town,
but
again
we're
on
a
plan
everybody's
for
the
five-year
plan
and
we're
giving
8
000
here,
20
000
there,
another
110
there
55
000
there.
D
In
a
but
I
would
say
beyond
just
being
a
great
cause,
though
I
mean
a
great
the
playhouse,
the
playhouse
will
absolutely
drive
up
property
values
for
the
rest
of
arctic
once
that
project
is
complete,
you're
going
to
see
the
property
values
all
around
that
building
go
up
and
we'll
see
the
benefit
of
that.
So
I
just,
I
think
you
have
to
look
at
a
little
bit
differently
than
a
typical
nonprofit,
where
it's
it's
simply
giving
the
money
away,
they're,
actually
creating
a
true
asset
that
will
drive
values
up.
D
It's
been
proven,
it's
been
shown
in
other
communities
where
this
has
been
done
and
and
it's
also
common
for
other
communities
to
to
exempt
these
types
of
facilities,
but.
M
I
I
just
want
to
add
you
know
I
understand
where
councilman
padula
is
coming
from.
We
don't
want
to
be
foolish
and
just
give
up.
You
know
tax
revenue,
but
at
the
same
time
I
would
agree
that
this
is
going
to
be
a
cultural
center
for
arctic
and,
if
we're
really
going
to
revitalize
arctic,
this
is
going
to
be
one
of
the
major
draws.
M
A
It's
my
own,
my
only
concern
we,
we
have
done
it
in
the
past.
We
did
it
for
tides,
we
did
it
for
somebody
else
too.
I.
G
N
This
you
would
set
the
president's
only
set
if
you
have
a
similar
set
of
circumstances,
you
have
to
have
the
501c3
different
non-profit
status,
but
it's
something
more
than
a
you
know:
a
for-profit
business,
it's
something
that's
going
to
you
know.
I
want
to
determine
the
arts
right
along
those
lines,
so
it
doesn't
set
a
precedent
for
every
type
of
business
that
comes
in
to
say
you
gave
them
a
tax
break.
I
want
the
same
thing.
N
Any
any
private
enterprise
can
go
to
the
town
manager
and
then
pick
up
the
polls
of
this
town
council
asking
for
tax
relief.
You
guys
got
tax
treaty,
you
guys
can
judge
it
at
that
time,
but
right
now
this
would
be
just
something
particular
for
audit,
particularly
for
playoffs.
But
again
my
only
concern
is
that
it
runs
only
for
as
long
as
it's
a
playoffs
absolutely
not
not
make
it
run
with
the
problem.
M
I
feel
that
we
should
try
to
help
them,
because
there
is
a
large
number
involved.
I
think
where
they
need
about
one
and
a
half
million
dollars
and
they've
have
they've
always
six
hundred
thousand.
At
this
point,
this
is
going
to
bring
business
to
even
the
surrounding
businesses,
the
restaurants
and
that
are
already
existing
at
this
point.
So.
A
N
J
Speaking
for
the
agency
for
the
redevelopment
of
arctic,
as
fred
has
over
indicated,
this
is
going
to
be
a
revenue
driver
and,
and
it's
it's
like
the
focal
point
of
what
we're
trying
to
do.
This
is
going
to
be
the
the
kingpin,
and
this
is
what
we've
always
talked
about
in
the
planning
is
having
a
destination
a
reason
to
come
here,
plus,
not
only
that
it
brings
in
evening
traffic
and
those
we,
those
of
us
who
were
at
centerville
bank
just
a
little
while
ago,
they're
going
to
be
open
for
the
evening
and
doing
business.
J
So
that's
going
to
open
up
the
town
a
little
bit
more.
So
there
are
things
happening,
and
this
is
so
critical
on
the
success
of
what
we're
trying
to
do
and,
as
you
indicated,
it's
an
investment
and
that
will
be
turned
over
more
than
whatever
that
eight
thousand
dollars
will
be
tripled
very
quickly.
J
J
J
Sit
down,
I'm
a
big,
I
am
a
big
theater.
Goer
from
you
know
all
the
way
in
warren
theater
by
the
sea
brown
uri.
It
is
such
a
gem.
Have
you
been
angelo
okay?
So
you
need
to
get.
J
Don't
need
to
be
invited
it's
every
thursday,
friday
saturday,
angelo
you've
got
to
get
in
there.
We
have
such
a
gem
of
talon
and
to
have
this
available
in
our
own
little
town
and
the
fact
that
they
do
what
they
do
in
this
stage.
That's
tinier
than
what
you're
sending
out
now
is
incredible
and
the
traffic
that's
going
down
there
along
with
boneheads,
but
that's
all
we've
got
right
now.
We
you've
got
to
see
a
vision,
and
it's
unfortunate
that
I
I
hope
you
see,
growth
coming
and
and
you
should
be
envisioning
more
growth
coming.
J
J
You
have
an
opportunity
for
something
to
to
bring
in
the
theater
bring
in
the
culture
to
try
to
get
that
wickford
frame
of
mind
that
east
greenwich
for
him
in
mind
that
you
know
garden
city
start
making
it
beautiful
here
again
in
more
way.
West
woolwick.
I
really
think
it
would
totally
be
investment,
and
you
know
just
to
to
help
other
business,
see
some
vision
and
instead
of
looking
at
empty
store
windows
that
have
been
like
that
for
the
past
15
years.
Sad,
so
that's
all.
I
have
to
say.
E
You
know
I'm
gonna
vote
yes,
but
with
the
five-year
plan
that's
gonna
bite
us,
but-
and
you
know
I
don't
want
nicole.
I
don't
want
you
to
think
I'm
against
I've
been
to
new
york.
I've
been
to
boston,
I've
been
matter
of
fact
to
miami.
I
went
to
a
nice
play.
A
friend
of
mine
was
a
club.
It
was
beautiful,
so
you
know
I
do
know
what
the
arts
mean
to
the
community,
but
I
also
know,
but
I
also
know
what
the
money
means
money.
First,
I'll
vote.
Yes,
against
my
wishes
with
the
five-year
plan.
A
L
D
So
we
went
out
to
bed,
we
had
four
total
submissions
on
this
for
citizen
request
management
services
of
the
four
three
were
very
close
in
price
and
capability.
We
reviewed
those
three.
It
was
myself,
it
was
my
assistant,
libby
and
initially
edgaru,
also
reviewed
all
three
proposals
and
then,
when
ed
moved
on
jay
volunteered
to
step
in,
and
he
also
reviewed
the
proposals
based
upon
our
review
and
really
a
question
of
functionality
and
also
examples
of
local
uses
of
of
the
software
product.
There.
C
D
They
are,
they
can
physically
be
here
if
we
ever
have
an
issue
and
also
in
terms
of
the
way
that
they
work,
the
setup
is
very
customizable
and
if
you've
had
a
chance
to
look
at
the
apps
for
cumberland
or
newport,
if
you
haven't
you
should
you
can
go
up
on
the
app
store,
but
you
can
see
how
they're
very
different
and
it
it's
a
look
and
feel
that
the
community
wants
and
we'll
be
able
to
do
the
same
thing
so,
based
on
that
we're
recommending
c
click
fix.
D
They
also
were
able
to
provide
us
with
a
a
pro-rated
amount
for
this
fiscal
year.
In
order
that
we
can
get
the
ball
rolling
and
get
things
moving.
So
we
don't
have
to
wait
until
july
to
to
start
the
process,
so
they
gave
us
a
pro-rated
contract
amount
and
then
followed
by
the
full
year,
which
you'll
see
in
the
budget
document
that
will
be
presented
to
you.
Actually
you've
already
seen
it,
but
it'll
be
spelled
out
when
we
go
through
the
budget
workshops
and.
C
D
And
it
can
be
seasonal
too
so
winter
time
we
can
have
the
snow
plows.
D
And
in
talking
with
the
folks
over
in
newport
they're
they're
dpw
people
actually
appreciate
it
and
they
like
it
because
they
don't
get
as
much
of
the
anonymous
moaning
that
goes
on
on
on
social
media.
It's
it's
more
direct
response.
So
if
someone
puts
a
complainant
on
their
phone
they're
going
to
immediately
get
an
email
saying,
you
know
freddie
gill's
on
the
job,
all
right
so.
C
C
Well,
I
think
I
think
I
mentioned
this
last
time.
It's
going
to
be
beneficial
to
the
the
bike
path,
in
particular
about
figuring
out
where,
if
there
are
problems
on
the
bike
path,
you
know
drug
needles
graffiti
things
like
that.
Obviously,
it's
not
used
for
emergency
purposes,
right,
there's
a
murderer
or
you
know,
don't
don't
take
a
picture
and
post
it
on
c-click-fix.
Please
thank
you
that
happens.
C
A
B
A
M
D
D
Obviously
this
ordinance
is
to
address,
or
these
ordinances
are
to
address
where,
where
that
can
take
place,
but
I
know
that
there
have
been
discussions
about
various
locations
which
might
not
fall
within
the
zones
of
these,
but
just
keep
in
mind
we'll
be
able
to
go
back
and
make
amendments
if
the
council
sees
fit
later
on.
But
it's
important
that
we
get
these
in
place.
D
I
know
angelo,
I
think
you,
some
people
have
been
reaching
out
to
you
and
they've
reached
out
to
us
with
respect
to
the
sub
part
of
the
old
west,
valham
property
that
wouldn't
be
allowed
under
this
current
ordinance.
But
if
it's
something
that
at
a
later
date,
the
council
wants
to
consider,
we
can
revisit
that.
D
But
it's
something
that
just
know
that
we're
getting
a
lot
of
activity
around
this
issue
and
around
these
and
so
we've
been
having
numerous
meetings
with
applicants
and
we
tell
them
all
that
you
know
this
ordinance
is
gonna
make
it
so
some
can
move
forward,
but
it's
also
gonna
make
it
so
others
cannot,
unless
you
readdress
it,
but
it's
something
that
you
know
we
are
in
conversations
with
people
about,
but
it's
complicated,
but
we
have
to
get
something
in
the
book.
So
something
can
move
forward.
So.
E
D
Get
about
three
to
ten
per
week,
it's
big
business
people
coming
in
yeah,
yeah.
N
D
And
I
think,
by
doing
this
too
we're
gonna
we're
gonna
cut
down
a
lot
of
most
when
I
say
applicants
we
have
inquiries,
people
come
in
saying
I
wanna
do
this.
I
want
to
do
it
in
this
location
and
it
takes
a
lot
of
time
to
go
through
and
sit
down
with
them
most
of
the
times
based
upon
where
this
ordinance
is
going.
We
tell
them
you're
not
going
to
be
allowed
to
do
it
in
this
area,
but
you
know,
but
we
get
that
many
easily.

Moving
second
discussion:
this
is
no
parking
to
west
side
of
epw.
A
C
M
D
This
is
that
we
had
a
meeting
a
couple
of
meetings
on
this
in
executive
session.
This
was
the
agreement
that
we
met.
There
were
a
handful
of
employees
that
were
not
able
to.
D
They
didn't
realize
the
impact,
I
guess,
and
they
were
it-
wasn't
discussed
with
them
in
terms
of
the
impact
of
the
changes
that
we
made
and
they
had
plans
for
retirement
at
a
certain
point.
It
was
discussed
and
there
was
an
agreement
made
between
the
town
and
the
union,
an
exchange
made
that
allowed
these
individuals
to
go
back
and
retire.
D
Now
at
this
point
not
go
back
to
the
beginning,
but
from
this
point
forward
and
in
an
exchange
there
was
a
position
taken
out
of
the
hr
department,
which
was
the
agreement,
so
everything
has
been
already
sanctioned
by
the
courts
so
because
this
was
done
by
consent,
order,
judge
taft
carter
that
had
to
be
brought
back
to
her
for
for
amendment
and
that
is
that
has
been
completed.
So
this
is
the
last
step
in
that
process.
M
A
M
A
M
C
I'm
going
to
let
devin
take
this
one.
He
has.
He
has
an
eagle
scout
project
he's
trying
to
increase
the
enrollment
of
our
code,
red
notification.
This
is
where
the
town
would
you
get
the
emergency
notifications
parking
bans?
Maybe
a
prisoner
escaped,
maybe
like
a
bad
storm,
something
that
happens.
H
My
name
is
devin
knight
and
I'm
a
boy
scout
from
troupe
and
arctic,
and
thank
you
for
giving
me
the
time
to
speak
to
speak
to
you
tonight.
So
for
my
eagle
scout
project,
I
basically
wanted
to
bring
attention
and
increase
enrollment
in
west
warwick's
code,
red
notification
system
and
what
this
system
does
is.
H
Like
councilman
messier
said
it
sends
people
instant
notifications
about
any
emergency
situations
such
as
parking
bans,
an
escaped
prisoner
road
closures,
things
of
that
nature,
so
I
basically
wanted
to
increase
the
enrollment,
because
west
warwick
has
a
population
of
about
29,
000
and
excluding
children.
There
are
still
not
many
people
enrolled.
H
So
by
doing
this
or
how
I
went
about
doing
this,
was
I
contacted
councilman
messier
and
he
assisted
me
in
getting
like
publicizing
it.
So
he
assisted
me
with
posting
things
on
social
media.
We
made
a
live.
Facebook
video
I
went
to
the
senior
center
in
west
warwick
spoke
to
them
there.
H
So
my
project
simply
involves
increasing
the
enrollment
in
the
codered
notification
system
and.
C
H
So
it's
a
the
code.
Red
notification
system
is
a
database
that
contains
the
landlines
of
all
the
houses
in
west
warwick.
However,
many
people
say
that
they
do
not
get
the
the
phone
calls
to
their
homes
and
even
if
they
do,
it
would
still
be
helpful
if
they
got
it
to
their
cell
phones
or
an
email
and
the
people
that
believe
that
it's
a
nuisance
to
get
the
phone
calls
they
I
wanted
to.
H
C
H
C
So,
every
year
I'm
gonna
call
up
barbara
tayback
here
every
year
the
arctic
village
association,
barbara
tape
back,
is
responsible
for
organizing
the
cleanup
throughout
arctic.
This
year,
in
discussing
with
barbara,
we
decided
it
would
be
a
great
idea
for
us
to
extend
that
out
to
different
areas
of
the
town,
so
we're
looking
to
possibly
get
some
help
from
the
other
council
members.
C
Maybe
if
angelo
knows
some
areas
in
natick
that
he
thinks
we
need
to,
we
need
to
galvanize
and
clean
same
thing
with
ward
4,
john's
ward,
probably
doesn't
have
as
many
parks
or
particular
areas
of
that
nature.
I
know
dave,
of
course,
phoenix
square.
I
thought
of
immediately
I'll.
Let
barbara
discuss
what
you
do
in
previous
years
and
how
you
organize
it.
F
Exactly
well,
it's
been
quite
a
few
years
that
I've
been
talking
about
this
with
the
other
people
that
I
worked
with
jacqueline,
salada
and
friends
of
the
greenway
who
have
since
retired.
This
is
going
to
be
their
first
year
in
retirement
with
it,
but
anyway,
thinking
that
we
shouldn't
just
be
attic,
you
know
it
should
be
each
village.
F
F
F
E
Could
even
coordinate
something
with
dave
where
they
could
go
pick
up
the
bags
with
the
truck
or
something
instead
of
picking
them
up
twice.
You
pick
them
up.
C
M
F
C
And
I
know
typically,
the
baseball
does
their
own
cleanup
effort,
usually
the
weekend
before.
So
I
thought
it
would
be
the
perfect
timing,
if
they're
doing
their
own
cleanup
it'd
be
easier
to
galvanize
volunteers.
So
I
mean
it
doesn't
have
to
be
the
councilman
in
that
ward.
But
if
you
know
somebody
in
the
area,
even
if
I'll
put
it
on
social
media,
people
want
to
come
and
you
know
lead
a
group
of
people.
F
The
second,
the
second
part
of
that
that
that
jay
and
I
discussed
was-
we
could
discuss
it
tonight
and
then
we
we
would,
he
would
put
it
on
social
media.
We
would
get
it
out
there,
the
the
advertise,
the
idea
that
we
want
to
do
this
and
have
an
open
meeting
for
the
public
at
like
the
senior
center
and
see
how
many
people
actually.
A
C
I
F
Morning,
football
in
the
morning,
I'll
tell
you
what
we
do
do.
Yes,
we
we
started
at
eight
o'clock,
we
meet
down
at
the
american
legion,
dunkin,
donuts
and
coffee,
and
so
forth,
supply
t-shirts
for
the
day,
the
earth
day,
organizations
the
jc's
john
j
clark
insurance
who
donate
the
money
and
buy
these
t-shirts
designate
areas
where
groups
go
and
follow
up.
We
have
a
senior
center.
F
F
F
You
know
that
took
a
few
years
of
work
in
progress
to
make
all
that
happen,
but
we
certainly
could
help
anybody
that
would
be
interested,
but
I
think
that
jay's
idea
of
having
a
public
meeting
after
we
advertise
it
a
little
bit
is
what
we
want
to
do,
because
I've
seen
it
on
facebook
in
the
past
where
people
say
well,
you
know
pulaski's
shooting,
not
too
fantastic,
but
there
was
somebody
on
philosophy
that
wanted
to
clean.
You
know.
Is
anybody
else
interested.
E
E
You
know
we
always
got
the
boy
scouts
and
we
did
the
parks.
We
did
past
story
field.
We
got
providence
street
for
them
to
go.
You
know
the.
E
We
around
there
and
you
know
we
always
got
like
donuts-
the
kids
always
like
donuts,
but
now
we
lost
troop
too,
and
you
know
we
have
31
and
artik
has
two
yeah,
but
you
didn't.
F
E
When
I
first
met
you,
you
got
involved
with
the
the
cleanup
when
the
boy
scouts
were
were
stopped
and
you
did
the
native
fields.
And,
yes,
you
got
that
going.
F
C
A
I'm
just
a
little
in
the
phoenix
section,
a
lot
of
those
businesses
open
up
at
that
time,
so
those
businesses
aren't
going
to
be.
I
know
they
will
not
like
phoenix
square
diner.
That's
their
busy
time,
they're
not
going
to
come
out
and
help
us.
I
know
they
want
to
get
involved,
even
the
antique
shops
and
everything
else
when
they
open
up
on
a
saturday
morning.
That's
their
busiest
time
is
the
weekend,
because
people
come
from
out
of
town
or
whatever
and
try
to
go
to
these.
C
C
C
C
And
it
was
a
it
was,
the
weather
was
not
raining
yeah,
it
was
bad.
We
did.
We
also
set
up
a
rain
day
as
well
this
year,
because
last
year
we
didn't
have
one
we
went
out
there,
it
wasn't
pouring,
but
still
nobody
wants
to
pick
up
wet
nips
that
that's
the
the
hot
collection
item.
That's
a
lot
of
those.
So
we
appreciate
any
support
that
you
can
give
us
and
we.
D
Not
much
tonight
I
just
want
to
mention
that
those
of
you
haven't
been
by
because
of
the
nice
weather
we've
been
having
the
last
few
weeks
here.
The
crompton
fishing
pier
project
has
been
accelerated.
We're
gonna
have
to
wait
till
after
the
winter
to
get
the
site
work
being
done
on
that
they've
had
a
full
week
and
a
half
now
out
there
doing
site
work
so
probably
going
to
be
wrapping
that
up
in
the
next
week,
or
so
all
the
major
site
work.
D
And
then
it's
just
a
matter
of
the
sodding
and
final
touches
when
spring
finally
does
get
here.
So
we
should
be
on
an
early
spring
schedule
as
opposed
to
a
late
spring
based
on
the
nice
weather.
We've
been
having,
so
it's
good
that
the
those
those
of
you
that
have
not
been
out
there,
the
the
pier
looks
great
and
and
and
the
site's
coming
along
now
too,
that
it's
nice
and
cleared
and
graded
out
and
it's
really
coming
along.
So
that's
all.
I
have.
E
On
on
the
town
manager's
report,
we
discussed
about
wakefield
street
and
river
street
any
anything
with
that
tim.
Did
we
see
what
kind
of
bite
we
could
put
into
this
ordinance
or
with
them
what
they
did
to
the
streets
with
the
puc?
Did
you
contact?
Did
you
reach
out?
Well.
N
What
I
was
told
was
nothing
more
than
a
runaround
best
way
I
can
suggest
handling
it.
Is
we
send
them
an
official
letter
council
signs
it
asking
for
an
investigation
and
or
inquiry
into
what's
going
on,
asking
specifically
what
authorities
that
they're
working
on
there
that
basically
absolves
them
of
any
liability
or
any
problems
whatsoever?
E
N
N
A
Scenario
right
for
his
ward,
I
got
a
phone
call
today
and
I'm
going
to
talk
to
him
tonight
after
the
meeting
is
a
whole
section
that
ken
county,
what
is
going
to
stop
back
up
and
we
doors
we
just
paved
they're,
going
to
go
and
dig
it
up.
A
There's
a
couple
other
roads
over
there
that
were
just
paved
within
the
last
few
years
and
they're
going
to
go,
dig
all
them
roads
up
and
put
new
water
lines
in
them,
and
I
I
remember
specifically,
we
asked
them
for
a
list.
They
supplied
us
that
list,
and
you
know
they
called
me
today
and
said.
Well,
how
is
doors
getting
torn
up
when
and
I
said
well
wait
wait.
Where
did
you
hear
this
from?
They
said
kent
county
water?
I
said
well
we'll
have
to
confirm
that.
A
E
E
E
E
N
E
N
N
Street
and
they're
going
to
rip
it
up
understand
as
a
hypothetical
go
to
court
seeking
a
restraining
order
or
preliminary
injunction
because
of
what
they
already
promised
not
to
do
in
their
prior
agreements.
Now
they'd
have
to
come
forth
and
say:
there's
been
a
substantial
change
in
circumstances.
There's
a
health
safety
and
welfare.
K
E
E
Of
march,
can
we
put
down
on
there
I'm
having
a
lot
of
problems
on
prospect
hill?
I
called
the
chief
today
we're
having
a
trailer
put
their
speeding
kids
with
the
bike
with
the
bus
stops
they're
going
around
them
they're,
it's
a
disaster
up
there
in
the
morning
and
afternoon,
but
the
other
thing
that
came
to
my
attention.
E
If
we
can
get
a
stop
sign
where
I
would
request,
the
stop
sign
is
going
up
prospect
hill
from
providence
street
or
coming
down
prospect
hill
from
wilson
street,
where
the
mctears
court
diaz
court
section
is
a
stop
sign
to
slow
these
kids
down
these
people
down.
E
There's
no
stop
signs
at
all,
except
for
intersections
or
or
whatever,
but
on
that
main
drag
we're
not
slowing
them
down,
they
just
won
one
run
and
they're
gone,
so
I
I
will
be
I
I'm
requesting
now
that
a
stop
sign
be
put
prospect.
Hill
is
sort
of
like
the
middle
section.
I
don't.
H
Want
to
be
the
negative
nelly,
however,
we
as
a
traffic
commission
and
a
police
department,
frown
upon
making
stop
signs,
speed
enforcement
because
they
call
they
cause
a
lot
of
problems
other
than
just
putting
a
stop
sign
up.
I
understand
many
people
will
stop.
Therefore
they
have
to
go
slower,
but
the
problem
is
speed
enforcement,
speed
awareness,
so
our
education
program,
getting
a
radar
trailer
up
there.
Trying
to
increase
enforcement
overall
is
a
much
better
plan
than
just
throwing
stop
signs
up
everywhere.
H
E
That
there
was
safety,
that's
the
main
thing
I
I
mean
I
was
born
and
brought
up
in
that
section,
and
I
know
with
a
stop
sign
there.
Is
it
going
to
stop
and
no
are
radar
going
to
stop
it?
No
is
anything
you
put
there,
it's
not
you
put
all
the
white
lines
you
want
they're
going
to
cross
them.
You
put
all
the
speeds
limit,
sign
and
there's
no
speed
limit
signs
up
up
there
either
dave
we
got
to
get
some
back
up
there.
H
H
H
H
H
A
I'm
gonna
be
honest
with
you,
I'm
actually
talking
to
some
of
the
neighbors
on
night
street
and
you
know
I'm
really
starting
to
contemplate
these
speed.
Humps.
Oh
yeah!
That's
that's!
Next,
but
because
I
I
will
tell
you
personally,
going
to
east
greenwich
last
week
on
north
kingston,
one
of
their
schools,
all
the
back
roads
all
speed
homes
yeah.
That
used
to
be.
I
know
as.
A
And
you
know
I
I
have
it,
I
have
it
on
night
stream
because
everybody
wants
to
avoid
the
reddish.
I
have
one
put.
H
A
A
G
E
M
M
M
I
think
it's
it's
a
safety
issue.
We
have
a
bus,
stop
on
pulaski
street,
which
I've
had
people
call
me
on.
It's
been
on
social
media.
It's
a
huge
safety
issue,
I'm
in
talks
with
with
the
superintendent
right
now
to
just
get
it
off
the
main
road.
My
truck
was
totaled
on
coming
from
manchester
to
pulaski
street.
C
M
M
C
N
E
Anyway,
I
would
like
to
be
have
that
put
on
the
agenda
anyway
for
the
I.
G
A
Fred,
I
know
I
talked
to
you
about
the
same
type
of
trash
cans
or
up
here
in
attic
in
the
phoenix
area.
I
think
I
located
three
locations.
There
were
all
no
parking
areas,
so
that
should
alleviate
any
cars.
That
was
one
thing
I
met
with
a
couple
of
people
down
there
in
the
business
over
the
weekend,
so
that
will
alleviate
so
once
what
I'll
do
is
I'll,
just
send
it
off
to
an
email,
I'll
put
the
pictures
of
where
they
should
be.
A
That
way
there,
because
one
thing
I
noticed
was
if
these
kids
were
going
to
be
there
cars
where
we
parked
there
and
if,
if
they,
how
would
they
pick.
C
C
I
also
want
to
quickly
I'll
make
it
quick
that
we
have
the
official
westwork
town,
facebook
page
it
was
it
was.
It
was
operational
before,
but
I've
tried
to,
especially
during
the
snowstorms,
keep
it
just
information.
No,
like
I
said
no
maury
povich,
just
strictly
information.
We've
we've
added
about
almost
a
thousand
members
to
the
facebook
page
in
the
past
since
the
last
meeting.
C
L
L
I
will
put
that
summary
on
as
well,
so
the
public
can
take
a
look
at
any
of
the
reports
or
contact
us
for
any
questions
and,
as
you
have
a
chance
to
take
a
look
at
the
full
report,
if
there
are
any
questions,
feel
free
to
email
me
I'll,
be
some
time
before
I
reply
to
it,
but
I
can
at
least
joanne
will
be
taking
care
of
the
operations.
In
my
absence.
A
L
L
Exactly
but
but
all
seriousness,
joanne
colley
will
be
as
a
deputy
will
be
taking
over
the
day-to-day
operations.
She'll
be
getting
an
emails
that
are
sent
to
me.
So
if
there
are
any
questions
with
the
audit
feel
free
to
reach
out
to
her,
and
she
will
get
you
any
of
the
answers
that
you
that
you
may
need
or
to
any
of
the
questions
you
have.
So
that's
all.
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
john
again.
Good
luck.

E
I

a

for
saturday

citation

H
Evening,
everyone,
john
lancelotta
32
river
ave
in
town,
what's
work.
First
of
all,
I
wanted
to
thank
the
the
young
man
from
is
his
name
devin
yeah
from
troop
one,
that's
a
very
innovative
project.
The
code
read:
that's
why
I'm
here.
I
just
wanted
to
thank
the
town
council
and
the
clerk's
office.
H
They
prepared
a
very
elaborate
citation
for
a
young
man
from
troop
39
crompton
who
just
completed
it
actually
in
june,
and
he
had
his
eagle
scout
court
of
honor
over
the
weekend
and
he
did
an
extraordinary
job.
I
also
wanted
to
thank
the
department
of
public
works
because
they
had
helped
out
some
of
the
cement
piles
that
he
had
replaced.
H
Quite
quite
a
bit
of
money
was
invested.
He
did
a
fabulous
job
and
very
proud
of
him
what
he
did.
So
I
just
wanted
to
thank
the
town
council
and
the
clerk's
office
for
putting
that
citation
together
because
it
was
done
in
a
quick
time
slot
there.
You
know
we
got
the
the
invitation.
That's
why.
A
A
It
was
very
hectic
last
weekend
so
again,
thank
you
for
doing
that.
For
us,
I.
A
I
have
one
thing
that
I
received
the
text
last
week:
deering
middle
school
players
are
looking
for
ads
for
the
playbook
months
of
the
time
we
did
it
last
year
as
the
time
council
wants
to
know.
If
we
want
to
do
it
again
this
year,
yeah
so
paula.
If
you
could
take
care
of
that.
B
B
A
A
H
M
A
You
didn't
feed
me
that
information
anything
else,
hearing
that.
