A
B
E
A
D
There
is
a
quorum
discussion,
action
voter
town
council,
any
matter
on
this
portion
of
the
agenda
may
be
acted
upon
by
way
of
topic,
discussion
and
action
by
the
town
council,
with
a
vote
on
the
record
to
prove
amen
to
deny
our
table
the
agenda
item,
one
presentation
by
the
accounting
firm,
bloom
shapiro
to
review
the
fy
19
financial
statements.
The
presentation
will
include
financial
performance
results
and
highlights
of
how
the
town
performed
on
both
a
gaap
and
budgetary
basis.
G
I
was
the
engagement
partner
for
the
audit
here
in
the
town
with
me,
is
matt
and
matt
was
the
engagement
manager,
so
he
was
here
during
the
engagement
on
a
day-to-day
basis,
and
I'm
I'm
here
in
and
out
overseeing
the
whole
planning
and
review
process
of
the
engagement.
So
what
I
plan
to
speak
to
you
tonight
about
is
the
reporting
results,
as
as
learning
indicated,
which
I
think
are
the
most
significant
or
is
the
most
significant
framework
that
we
can.
G
We
can
discuss
with
you
because
relevant
to
the
audited
financial
statements
that
are
issued
beyond
an
opinion,
and
the
reports
relative
to
yellow
book
and
single
audit
are
really
the
only
things
that
belong
to
us,
the
auditors,
the
financial
statements
along
the
management.
They
are
the
representations
of
financial
position
and
results
of
operations
of
management
as
at
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year.
So
what
I'm
going
to
talk
to
you
about
tonight
is
about
the
scope
under
which
the
audit
is
performed.
G
The
reporting
results
under
that
scope
I'll
go
over
some
financial
highlights,
but
they
are
probably
25
to
30
thousand
foot
level
highlights
if
you
will
they're,
not
granular
and
not
meant
to
be
granular
in
this
environment.
I'll
take
any
questions
you
may
have.
If
I
can't
ask
you
answer
them,
perhaps
matt
can,
if
neither
of
us
can
we'll,
certainly
get
back
to
you
as
soon
as
we
possibly
can
so
beginning.
I
I
and
let
me
back
up,
I'm
not
sure
if
you
guys
got
the
slide
deck
I'm
talking
from
here.
B
G
So
again,
I'm
on
slide
three
and
the
audit
that
we
perform
is
actually
performed
under
three
different
sets
of
scope.
If
you
will
primarily
it's
it's
performed
on
the
generally
accepted
auditing
standards,
but
laying
over
the
top
of
that,
we're
required
to
also
perform
work
under
generally
accepted
governmental,
auditing
standards,
which
is
commonly
referred
to
as
yellow
book
and
then
as
well,
under
uniform
guidance,
which
was
formerly
the
federal
single
audit
under
generally
accepted
auditing
standards.
That's
our
primary
audit
opinion
on
the
financial
stable.
G
So
that's
page,
one
of
the
bound
150
or
some
odd
pages
of
document
that
you
get
when
that
report
is
issued
and
as
I
stated,
that's
that's
the
only
thing
in
that
document
that
actually
belongs
to
us.
Our
yellow
book
report
is
presented
in
conjunction
with
the
federal
single
audit,
and
then
we
have
a
report
relative
to
the
federal
single
audit
as
well,
so
under
generally
accepted
auditing
standards.
G
under
yellow
book.
We're
required
to
gain
and
document
an
understanding
of
your
internal
controls
over
financial
reporting
and
we're
also
required
to
determine
any
compliance
requirements.
That
may
exist
that
a
violation
thereof
would
be
deemed
material
to
the
financial
statements
and
thus
we're
required
to
report
to
you
any
significant
deficiencies
or
material
material
weaknesses.
G
We
find
relative
to
our
gain
and
our
understanding
of
the
internal
control
system
and
we
would
be
required
to
report
to
you
any
violations
of
compliance
requirements
that
would
be
material
to
the
financial
statements.
Actually,
we're
required
to
report
all
compliance
unless
they're
de
minimis,
but
the
results
of
that
reporting.
G
There
were
no
significant
deficiencies
or
material
weaknesses
that
we
detected
during
the
performance
of
our
work
and
there
were
no
violations
of
compliance
requirements
that
would
have
been
deemed
material
to
the
financial
statements
and
in
fact
we
did
not
detect
any
violations
of
compliance
requirements
during
the
performance
of
our
work,
under
uniform
guidance
from
the
federal
single
audit.
It's
very
similar
to
yellow
book.
G
The
only
difference
is
that
the
spotlight
is
is
strictly
on
the
major
federal
programs
that
are
determined
based
on
a
risk
assessment
that
we
perform
at
the
beginning
of
the
audit
and
again,
we're
required
to
report
to
you
any
significant
deficiencies
or
material
weaknesses
over
the
internal
controls
relative
to
the
compliance
reform,
it's
applicable
to
the
federal
grants
that
we're
testing
and
then
also
issue
an
opinion
in
this
case
on
that
on
those
compliance
matters.
G
If
there
were
any
violations,
so
under
federal
single
audit,
we
did
not
detect
any
significant
deficiencies
or
material
weaknesses
over
internal
control
relative
to
the
major
program.
There's
only
one
major
program
that
we
were
required
to
test
during
the
fiscal
year
and
then
there
were
no
instances
of
non-compliance
relative
to
that
major
federal
program.
So
we've
issued
an
unmodified
opinion
again
on
the
compliance
requirements
relative
to
the
federal
program.
You
go
to
slide
six.
G
The
town
is
deemed
to
be
a
risk
oddity
that
that
designation
is
based
on
the
fact
that
there
were
no
findings
in
the
last
two
prior
years
and
your
federal
single
audits
were
filed
with
federal
clearinghouse
in
a
timely
manner
under
as
a
lower
strategy,
we're
only
required
to
gain
coverage
of
20
of
your
federal
programs.
Again,
we've
covered
about
28
of
it.
If
the
town
were
to
be
deemed
a
high-risk
audit,
then
we
would
have
to
cover
40
percent
or
more
of
your
federal
expenditures.
G
The
next
slide
gives
you
a
snapshot
of
the
balance
sheet
for
your
governmental
funds
and
just
looking
at
phone
balance
levels.
The
the
reporting
model
that
we're
under
in
governmental
accounting
basically
has
a
major
fund
focus.
G
So
your
two
major
funds
within
the
confines
of
governmental
funds
or
your
general
fund
and
your
school
and
restricted
fund-
and
you
see
them
there
listed
on
this
table
at
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year,
the
general
fund
at
208,
463
and
fund
balance
your
school
unrestricted
fund
at
486
755
and
then
the
conglomerate
of
all
of
your
other
governmental
funds,
they're
not,
which
are
deemed
non-major
funds,
had
total
phone
balances
of
june
30
of
6
million
644
323.
G
G
This
is
this
really
is
the
25
30
000
foot
level
as
to
what
caused
the
the
an
increase
or
depletion
of
from
balance
so
in
the
general
fund,
as
this
indicates,
the
total
fund
balance
2.208
463
again
an
increase
of
a
little
over
1.3
million
dollars
of
that
total
general
fund
fund
balance
1.987763.
So
almost
one
point,
almost
two
million
dollars
is
unassigned,
which
means
it's
available
for
use
for
for
future
expenditures
for
budgetary
reasons
or
whatever.
G
The
case
may
be
that
that
total
represents
about
5.1
million
5.1
5.01
of
your
total
general
fund
budgetary
expenditures
for
the
fiscal
year.
That
is
a
one
of
the
primary
measures
that
the
rating
agencies
will
look
at
relative
to
the
level
of
your
phone
balance
to
either
your
general
fund
budgetary
expenditures
or
revenues,
whichever
stream
is,
is
more
predictable.
In
management's
view.
A
And
that,
and
that
five
percent
is
actually
where
the
town
should
be
ernie
by
charter
and.
A
G
Your
school
on
restricted
fund,
as
indicated
in
the
prior
slide
that
year
end
is
four
million
and
four
eighty
six
seven,
fifty
five
and
fun
violence.
It
was
an
increase
of
638
772
dollars
for
the
fiscal
year
of
that
total
phone
balance,
4
million
263
592,
is
committed.
So,
as
I'm
sure
you're
all
aware,
there
really
is
no
unassigned
fund
balance
in
the
in
the
school
and
restricted
fund.
What
money
is
in?
G
There
is
your
mark
for
the
use
of
your
education
system
here
in
town,
so
while
it
does
represent
about
7.3
percent
of
their
annual
expenditures,
it
doesn't
really
impact
very
much
of
anything
relative
to
moderating
and
things
of
that
nature.
And
then
your
non-major
funds,
as
I
indicated,
had
a
depletion
of
974
000,
and
most
of
that
was
capital
project
activity.
G
G
It's
typical
to
see
the
oven
flow
due
to
capital
projects,
because
bonding
proceeds
are
often
sitting
in
a
in
a
capital
project
fund
at
fiscal
year
end
and
then
used
in
the
subsequent
year,
as
the
project
incurs
its
expenditures
and
gets
built
out
slide.
Nine
is
your
proprietary
funds
again
just
the
snapshot
of
fund
balance
or
net
position
in
this
case,
because
we're
over
proprietary
funds
or
business
type
funds,
the
wastewater
authority,
which
is
the
only
major
program
under
your
your
business
type
activities?
G
I
have
net
position
of
38
million
746
222,
obviously
the
the
preponderance
of
that
is
in
your
net
investment
in
capital
assets.
So
it's
it's
not
something
that's
in
liquid
form
by
any
means
and
being
that
it's
a
proprietary
fund.
I
I
doubt
anyone
is
in
a
position
to
look
to
liquidate
those
assets
and
then
therefore
no
longer
to
be
able
to
carry
on
the
operations
of
the
wastewater
authority.
G
G
Non-Major
business
type
funds
had
a
decrease
of
just
over
two
thousand
dollars
really
de
minimis
quite
frankly,
and
ended
in
a
thumb
balance
of
two
million
zero
sixty
five
one,
thirty
two
and
then
your
internal
service
funds.
They
did
have
an
increase
of
218
538,
but
they
do
still
sit
in
a
cumulative
deficit
of
a
little
over
547
000
for
the
fiscal
year
again
at
the
20
000
foot
view
or
30
000
foot
view
relative
to
those
funds.
G
Waste
water
did
have
a
decrease
for
the
fiscal
year
of
one
million
three
thirty
one
676
and
for
the
most
part
that
was
driven
by
depreciation.
That's
a
non-budgetary
item
in
the
wastewater
fund
and
depreciation
for
the
fiscal
year
was
two
point:
two
and
a
half
million
dollars
depreciation
amortization
so
that
really
drove
the
deficit
in
full
vacant
depreciation,
expense
which,
as
I'm
assuming
I
know,
not
everybody's
an
accountant
in
the
room.
But
it's
a
non-cash
item.
G
Vacant
debt
expense.
There
actually
was
surplus
relative
to
cash
flow
activity
in
the
fund
for
your
non-major
business
type
funds.
Total
fund
balance
decreased,
as
I
said,
about
two
thousand
dollars,
and
you
had
a
little.
You
know
a
little
bit
of
a
depletion
and
a
couple
of
the
funds
and
your
school
lunch
fund
actually
had
had
a
surplus
of
about
136
000
168,
it's
it's
from
from
an
auditor's
perspective.
It's
good
to
see
that
that
is
self-sustaining.
G
That
fund,
because
in
many
municipalities
they
struggle
to
retain
a
self-sustaining
position
in
that
fund.
The
internal
service
funds-
I'll
be
honest.
When
I
first
looked
at
this,
it
caused
caused
me
some
concern,
looking
at
it
just
globally
from
the
from
the
perspective
that
it
is
in
a
deficit
position,
but
the
the
full
deficit
is
really
derived
out
of
the
energy
efficiency
fund
and
not
out
of
the
health
insurance
fund.
G
So
from
that
perspective
there
is
a
plan
to
to
eliminate
that
that
deficit,
given
time
there
often
is
plans
to
eliminate
deficits
in
insurance
funds,
but
if
they
get
too
big,
sometimes
that's
awfully
difficult
to
lay
that
premium
increase
throughout
all
your
town
departments,
so
slide
11,
just
touching
on
some
budgetary
activity.
So
this
is
really
just
general
fund
activity.
G
The
results
for
the
general
fund
ended
in
a
combined
budgetary
surplus
of
1
million
355
393,
basically
that
occurred,
because
you
outperform
your
budgetary
estimates
both
on
the
revenue
and
expenditure
side.
Your
total
revenues
outperform
budgetary
estimates
by
a
little
over
1.7
million
dollars
and
from
the
expenditure
side
a
little
over
seven
hundred
four
thousand
dollars.
So
you
spent
less
than
you
planned
on
spending
and
you
brought
in
more
revenue
than
you
thought
you
were
going
to
bring
in
revenue.
Variances
were
mostly
led
by
intergovernmental
revenues,
which
outpaced
estimates.
G
By
a
little
over
a
million
dollars.
The
expenditure
variances
were
mainly
due
to
actual
expenditures
being
less
than
budgetary
estimates
in,
quite
frankly,
almost
every
functional
category
that
you
budget
for
the
only
thing
that
was
in
deficit
position.
Relative
to
you
know,
budget
deficit
or
surplus.
Were
your
transfers.
G
You
had
a
overage
of
975
000,
which
went
out
to
the
school
department,
but
that
was
fully
covered
by
975
000
worth
of
our
of
additional
state
aid
for
schools
that
was
received
by
the
town,
and
then
there
was
also
an
overage
of
a
little
over
90
000
in
order
to
fund
deficits
that
existed
in
other
funds
prior
to
the
fiscal
year.
So
that
was
all
well
planned.
I
don't
think
it's
a
shock
to
anybody
sitting
in
this
room
and
in
the
end
the
reality
of
it
is.
You
still
ended
in
a
surplus
position.
G
So
the
last
couple
of
slides-
I
have
you
know,
really
relate
to
your
your
debt.
You
know
from
again
from
a
rating
agency
perspective.
Nowadays
it
seems
to
be
fund
balance
and
debt
and
then
economic
development.
Those
are
the
three
primary
pillars
if
you
will
that
the
rating
agencies
are
looking
at
and
what
stands
out
on
everybody's
debt
schedules
these
days
throughout
the
united
states.
Quite
frankly,
are
your
pension
and
op
liabilities.
G
So
I'm
really
focusing
relative
to
this
schedule
on
slide
12
to
those
liabilities,
both
under
your
governmental
activities
and
under
your
business
type
activities.
For
the
most
part,
all
of
your
other
debt
activity
was
de
minimis
in
nature.
Relative
too
many
increases.
G
As
a
matter
of
fact,
you
didn't
bond
any
new
debt
during
the
school
year,
and
so
it
was
just
pay
down
relative
to
what
was
outstanding.
The
pension
liabilities
did
have
an
increase
both
from
governmental
activities
and
business
type
activities,
and
that's
just
a
split
out
of
the
plan
itself
based
on
employee
head
count.
The
actuaries
actually
perform
that
that
allocation,
but
the
increase
was
was
was
just
about
one
percent
overall.
G
So,
at
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year,
governmental
activities
has
a
pension
liability
of
a
little
over
168
million
dollars
and
your
business
type
activities
a
little
over
six
million
dollars.
What
what
they?
What
you
benefited
from
relative
to
overall
debt
is
your
net.
Op
liability
actually
declined
by
10
for
the
fiscal
year,
so
you
end
the
fiscal
year
under
governmental
activities,
with
a
little
over
56
million
dollars
in
your
open
liability
and
about
1.6
million
dollars
for
business
type
activities
in
that
liability.
G
Next
slide's
really
really
meaningless
at
this
point,
because
I
already
told
you
relative
to
what
transpired
and
drove
the
changes
in
those
liabilities,
both
from
a
governmental
perspective
and
a
business
type
perspective.
The
last
two
slides
relative
to
financial
statement.
G
Financial
numbers
are
going
to
be
slides,
14
and
15..
I'm
not
going
to
go
through
them
with
you.
I'm
only
going
to
bring
them
to
your
attention
because
the
slide
14
is
your
net
pension
liability
and
what
you
have.
There
is
a
schedule
over
time,
so
you're
as
of
june
30
19
going
back
to
june
30
14.
So
you
can
see
how
that
liability
ebbs
and
flows
over
that
time
frame
and
the
next
slide
deck
is
the
opeb
liability.
G
Basically
with
the
same
data,
it
doesn't
go
back
as
far
because
the
gaspi
standard
that
established
the
opeb
liability
is
relatively
new
to
implementation,
so
that
data
doesn't
exist
for
as
long
as
the
pension
data
does,
but
it
will
build
over
time
and
you'll
have
an
opportunity
to
see
these
laid
over
the
top
of
one
another
as
time
transpires.
But
I
just
think
it's
a
valuable
slide
for
two
reasons
again
to
see
the
oven
flow
and
probably
the
most
significant
number
that's
easy
to
track.
If
you
will,
because.
C
G
C
G
Of
numbers
I'm
throwing
at
you
there
is
that
very
last
number
that's
on
each
of
these
two
slides,
which
is
the
basically
the
funded
position
of
the
plan.
So
the
lag
you
know
the
assets
you
have
in
place
relative
to
the
liability
so
for
2019
and
your
net
pension
liability.
You
see
you're
you're
funded
at
24.07.
B
I
show
you
a
question:
if
you
go
down
to
where
it
says,
plant
fiduciary
net
position,
then
three
lines
down:
net
investment
income.
B
G
Well,
it's
driven
by
two
things:
it's
driven
most
primarily
just
by
market
activity
in
a
fiscal
year,
and
that
could
be
simply
just
you
know,
looking
at
overall
market
that
we
all
hear
day
in
and
day
out,
relative
to
what
the
market
is
doing
up
or
down,
and
it
also
is
in
the
case
of
a
pension,
especially
government
pension.
G
It's
it's
predicated
on
what
the
mix
of
assets
are
that
are
in
the
investment
portfolio
itself,
so
just
because
the
market
goes
up,
20
doesn't
necessarily
mean
that
your
portfolio
is
going
to
go
up
20.
The
other
thing,
the
more
complicated
factor
relative
to
this
is
actuarial.
Science
is,
is
all
estimates
if
you
think
accounts
are,
are
wishy-washy.
We
stand
in
second
in
line,
I
think,
but
what
what?
G
B
G
So
that
is
kind
of
a
hard
mark
to
see.
Well
at
least
the
market
you
know,
went
up,
eight
percent
out
from
our
portfolio
went
up,
15
or
or.
K
G
G
It's
a
little
bit
of
a
crapshoot
if
the
market
outperforms,
obviously
if
the
market
outperforms
what
they're
estimating
it's
going
to
do,
you're
in
better
shape.
You
know
and-
and
you
know,
let's
face
it
when,
when
those
liabilities,
if
they
ever
do
ever
get
exhausted,
none
of
us
are
going
to
be
around.
So
you
know
you
can
only
monitor
and
plan
for
the
time
that
you're
here
to
oversee
it.
Okay,.
F
All
right
ron,
the
town,
has
created
an
opep
trust
and
it's
you
know:
it's
been
funded
not
to
the
what
the
actor
would
recommend.
K
F
Are
we're
doing
funding
the
trust,
and
we
do
have
one
does
that
play
into
your
figures
here
that
we
have
a
trust.
G
Yes,
so
the
the
percentage
that
I
indicated,
the
3.6
percent,
which
is
the
funded
percentage
of
the
oaklet
plan
as
of
june
30,
19,
that
if
there
were
no
assets,
it
would
be
zero
percent
funded
so
that
that
is
taking
into
account
the
assets
that
do
exist.
F
Dude
in
your
calculations,
to
having
an
opef
trust,
does
that
matter
when
you
look
at
these
figures
as
far
as
what
rates
you
can
project
or
yeah,
is
that
more
actuarial.
G
Well,
from
an
actuarial
perspective,
they
do
a
calculation,
I
call
it
a
burn
rate
calculation
and
and
depending
on
when
the
tip
over
is
relative
to
when
the
assets
that
are
that
are
in
the
trust,
they'll
do
a
calculation
as
to
how
long
those
assets
will.
Last
in
the
trust
that
that
that
calculation
predicates
more,
you
know,
income
contributions
over
a
period
of
time,
but
the
burn
rate
as
people
go
out
and
start
start
collecting.
F
G
You
know
the
number
of
municipalities
that
are
that
are
aggressively
funding
them
drops
to
be,
you
know,
quite
a
low
percentage,
but
for
the
most
part
they
have
established
the
trust
that
have
seated
those
trust
yeah.
Thank
you.
Yeah.
G
G
Those
charged
with
governments
and
and
basically
the
criteria
that
is
in
there
is,
is
all
boilerplate
criteria
and
what
they're
all
about
is
we're
required
to
report
to
you
if,
if
basically,
we
deem
or
or
feel,
as
though
management
is,
is
trying
to
push
some
bias
relative
to
the
financial
statements
and-
and
I
won't
say
you
know
we're
not
talking
financial
statement
fraud
but
they're-
trying
to
perhaps
make
a
picture
look
differently
than
what
we
believe.
It
should,
in
all
cases
relative
to
the
topical
areas
that
we
are
required
to
communicate
to
you.
G
So
that's
going
to
end
my
presentation
for
you
this
evening
again
more
than
glad
to
answer
any
questions.
If
you
have
questions
in
the
future,
ideally
we
prefer
to
flow
through
the
finance
office.
But
if
you
want
to
reach
out
to
us
directly,
mine
and
matt's
contact
information
is
on
the
back
of
that
slide
deck.
You
can
certainly
feel
free
to
reach
out
to
us
as
well.
G
You
know
we
did
issue
a
recommendation
letter
which
we
believe
in
all
cases
are
really
just
best
practices.
G
You
know
I
I
I
won't
speak
for
that,
but
from
the
perspective
of
the
partner
level,
first-year
engagements
are
are
always
difficult
because
you
know
we're
going
through
a
big
learning
curve
and
I'm
sure
our
clients
will
all
tell
you.
You
know
it
goes.
It
goes
difficult.
Take
them
as
well
as
first
year
engagements
go
this.
This
went
quite
well.
G
We
enjoyed
working
with
men,
they
were
very
responsive
to
our
requests
and
we
look
forward
to
another
couple
of
years
and
all
three
longer
than
that.
A

A
The
ordinance
second
moving,
second,
any
discussion:
a
lot
of
discussion
on
this
last
council
meeting
any
discussion
from
the
council
any
discussion
from
the
public
on
this
audience.
A
C
A
C
B
I
Major
ashmore
receives
a
call
from
the
community
center
in
san
antonio
church.
That
parking
lot
is
down
behind.
There
is
a
perfect
spot
right
in
front
of
the
building
with
a
handicap
access
and
they
wanted
a.
They
asked
for
a
handicapped
spot
there.
The
traffic
committee
agreed
with
them
before
the
council.
A
Pretty
basic
we
have,
I
think
we
have
a
short
period
parking
area
up
here
on
this,
on
the
curb
it's
mocked
in
yellow
and
sanion
season,
again
the
kirby
where
they
want
it,
has
the
ramp
and
everything
there.
So
it
works
out
perfect,
very.
B
A
C
A
C
I
A
C
D
I
We
ship
it
off
to
munico
and
they
prepare
the
supplements
for
that
big
black
pork
for
the
code
of
audiences.
They
contacted
us
this
year
and
said
our
big
back.
Full
big
black
book
is
way
out
of
date.
When
I
looked
at
it,
I
found
out
that
the
last
time
that
book
was
revised
was
when
it
was
created
in
1970.
I
I
One
of
the
things
I
point
out
is
throughout
the
book
we
refer
to
the
mayor.
We
don't
have
a
man
so
some
time
ago
I
presented
to
the
council
and
he
passed
it.
It
says
that
anything
in
here
that
says
the
mail.
We
really
mean
the
god
manager,
but
you
know,
if
you're
looking
in
some
other
section,
you
don't
know
that
we
don't
have
a
man.
I
In
addition,
the
matter
that's
your
table
last
week
and
I
spoke
to
dave
it's
going
to
be
put
on
again
in
two
weeks.
I
Our
audit
says
the
police
can
arrest
the
person
state
law
says
no.
They
can't
and
there's
been
a
number
of
these
things.
I've
come
before
you
on
several
occasions
saying
state
law,
our
audience
doesn't
work
so
that
that's
that's
another
reason,
then.
In
addition,
we
have
in
our
ordinance,
for
example,
just
recently
david
asked
me
to
look
into
smoking
or
use
of
papers
on
in
public
public
parks,
recreation
areas.
Well,
I
looked
in
there
and
I
didn't
see
anything
covering
it.
I
However,
in
the
off
offense
section,
there
is
provision
for
that,
so
things
have
come
about
that.
I'm
guilty
of
that
I've
been
requested
to
do
something,
and
I
look
at
the
audience.
I
put
it
in
not
bothering
to
check
some
mornings
that
I
don't
think
has
anything
to
do
with
it.
Now
we
have
two
audiences
in
conflict
with
one
another,
all
in
conflict
with
state
law.
There's
been
situations
where,
when
I
get
my
supplement-
and
I
put
it
in
the
book-
I
take
the
ordinance
and
I
compare
it
to
what
the
supplement
says.
I
I
have
found
that
there's
been
errors
in
that
the
ordinance
as
you
presented,
didn't
get
transferred
into
the
code
book.
Probably
so
what
this
will
do
is
they
go
through
it?
And
I've
spoken
with
the
gentleman
there.
They
have
it's
all
done
by
staff
attorneys
they
go
through
it
and
I
gave
you
the
breakdown
of
the
areas
they
they
checked
for
spelling.
I
And
the
ordinances
they
go
through,
all
of
that
they
give
us
a
draft
they
meet
with
marianne
and
I,
if
they
found
inconsistencies,
they
may
make
suggestions.
They
do
not
make
any
substantial
changes
without
you
know,
checking
with
me
naturally
there's
a
substantial
change.
I
will
come
back
to
the
council,
but
it
is
something
where
you
know
a
book,
850
pages
that
hasn't
been
reviewed
since
1970,
and
it's
the
law
governing
the
stump,
the
one
that
I'm
I'm
meeting
with
don
tomorrow
morning,
your
discussion
about
sidewalks.
I
My
quick
review
on
that
I'll
be
submitting
a
report
on
that.
As
I
don't
think
off
the
top
of
my
head,
I'm
not
ready
to
make.
I
don't
think
our
ordinance
complies
with
the
state
law
on
the
sidewalk
situation
that
you
discussed
last
week.
So
those
are
the
my
reasons
why
I
think
that
you
know
it's
a
big
expense,
22
000.,
all
the
rest
of
that
contract
that
I
submitted
to.
I
You
is
what
we
already
do:
the
submitting
of
the
the
annual
set
of
ordinances,
the
one
change
that
I've
made
this
year
is
in
the
past
at
some
point
in
time
today,
we've
put
audiences
together
and
shipped
them
off.
I
I
H
H
I
H
When
they
look
at
the
chart-
because
there
are
some
things
in
the
charter
that
like
west
warwick
has
spelled
incorrectly
so
they
they
know
that,
so
how
are
they
going
to
take
care
of
that?
Well,
what.
I
F
K
F
From
and
mary
ann
will
say,
there
is
a
restricted
account
that
she
has
it's
not
general
funds,
it's
restricted
for
certain
purposes,
and
this
is
one
of
the
purposes
marianne
can
go
into
that.
So
based
upon
that
and
al's
strong
recommendation,
I
think
it's
worthy
of
consideration.
I
Very
reasonable.
I
bet
that
figure,
because
I
was
concerned
about
the
difference
in
price
of
the
single
single
column
and
the
double
column,
because
they
told
me
that
the
double
column
was
22
a
page
and
the
single
was
18..
While
we've
got
850
pages
now
at
22
000,
that
would
be
18
700
to
go
to
a
single
single
line.
You
go
up
to
1080
pages
and
that
works
up
to
19
440..
I
D
Yes,
I
did
call
and
check
on
it,
but
I've
used
this
money
before
this.
This
is
a
fund
that
every
single
document
that
comes
into
our
office
doesn't
require
is
recorded
and
land
evidence.
It's
called
a
ten
percent
fund
or
a
dollar
fund.
We
get
a
one
dollar,
it
has
to
go
into
a
fund
for
historical
preservation
or
technical
improvements.
D
That's
all
the
way
it
can
be
spent
and
there's
probably
about
a
hundred
and
four
thousand
no
in
one
of
the
funds,
the
one
I'm
gonna
be
using.
I
believe,
there's
about
eighty
thousand
dollars.
Seventy
five
thousand
dollars,
but
it
builds
up
and
I
use
it
for
different
projects
such
as
we're
back
to
1982.
You
can
research
land
evidence,
it
costs
a
lot
of
money
to
do
20
10
years,
it's
like
25
000,
so
I
take
chunks
of
it
and
keep
going
back
so
that
people
can
research
online.
D
I
really
didn't
know
the
law
of
the
town
at
that
point
and
he
had
brought
it
up
feedback.
Then
I
tried
to
make
all
the
books
up
to
date
go
through
every
single
one
of
them
do
what
I
could
it's
just
was
so
far
gone
that
when
al
brought
this
up,
I
said
well,
let
me
check
and
see
if
my
technical
improvement
money
and
my
historical
preservation
money
can
be
used
for
that
within
the
law,
and
I
did
and
yes
it
can.
D
So.
I
have
now
two
projects
more
back
file,
conversion
of
land
evidence
and
this
hopefully
in
the
next
year
and
then
but
from
there,
even
even
if
we
codified
what
you
did
and
we
didn't
have
charter
revision
ready.
This
year
said
they
did
take
a
year
or
whatever
it
would
go
into
the
next
one.
But
you'd
have
a
book
that
was
completely
up
to
date.
One.
I
Further
comment
on
what
marianne
just
said
at
one
point
in
time,
I
think,
because
I'm
a
little
bit
anal
and
I
went
down
into
the
basement
and
started
with
sucking
at
one
and
went
through
6,
15
and
16
made
sure
my
book
was
up
to
date.
I
think
at
one
point
in
time
I
may
have
had
the
only
code
book
in
here
where
everybody
got
a
copy
of
the
supplement.
H
I
H
I
C
J
And
just
with
some
historical
context,
the
last
time
this
was
done:
charter,
not
the
child
shooting,
but
the
parties
and
the
powers
that
be
decided
that
one
republican
attorney
and
one
democratic
attorney
would
do
this
and
build
a
town,
and
that
was
back
in
86
or
88.
Before
the
first
charter
review.
Commission,
danny
harrop
and
richard
fleury.
D
D
D
C
Evening
back
in
july,
I
received
a
phone
call
from.
C
To
be
and
when
he
said
the
number
I
was
like
really
so
you
know,
did
some
good
research
and
and
sure
enough
yep
fema
was
highly
reimbursing
us
217
946
dollars
from
the
clubs
of
2010
the
work
that
was
done
on
the
retaining
wall
over
by
factory
factory
street
in
houston.
E
Tim,
you
can
tell
me
if
this
is
off
topic
or
on
topic,
but
what
like
that
bridge,
that's
over
there
royal
mills
now
was
that
something
that
we
were
also
trying
to
get
a
reimbursement
from
fema.
A
No,
that's
private
property
that
has
nothing
to
do.
It's
not.
F
A
Property,
the
town
did
have
an
easement
through
that,
but
unfortunately,
until
they
fix
it,
that
he's
been
spending
pretty
much
chris.
I'm
sorry.
F
A
We
took
we
spent
a
lot
of
money
in
2010,
11
and
12
to
recoup,
and
you
know
what
one
and
two
were
the
two
words
that
got
hit
the
hardest:
what
one
the
hardest
and
one
two
came
into
it,
a
little
section
three.
But
at
the
time
the
town
between
designated
funds,
the
right,
what
they
call
the
rainy
day
fund,
which
no
pun
intended,
but
the
town
maintained.
And
we
were
expecting
some
refunds
and.
A
C
D
H
F
Projects
sidewalk
repair-
and
we
could
talk
about
this-
there's.
B
An
issue
that
I've
been
bringing
up
to
ernie
because
it's
been
brought
up
to
me
and
this
came
up
last
year
and
I'm
just
it
just
piques
my
interest
because
there's
a
lot
of
money
here,
I
know
joe
argenti
has
been
doing
some
investigating
on
the
lights
at
river
point,
namely
the
lights,
mccarthy
and
the
lights
on
the
cal
ripken
field.
B
I'm
not
quite
sure
what
exactly
it
needs,
but
I
know
last
fall.
I
had
some
people
call
me
on
a
on
a
weekend
night,
very
similar,
saying
we
can't
use
the
lights
and
to
me
I
mean
some
work,
some,
don't
it's
a
safety
issue,
some
kid
slides
in
gets
hit
by
a
ball,
because
he
can't
see
because
the
one
lights
in
one
light's
out,
you
know
that's
it's
awesome
correct.
I
mean
the
risk
right
anyway.
I
think
I
seriously.
I
don't
know
I
ernie
if
you
can
investigate
more
with
joe
argentina.
F
We've
been,
we've
been
looking
at
that
in
the
last
year
right
around
right
before
the
budget
was
finalized.
There
was
a
proposal
for
lights,
but
it
came
too
late
and
that
was
working
with
ryze
energy
consultants.
They've
worked
for
the
town
where
you
know
you
would
fund
it
over
so
many
years
that
came
in
too
late
and
we
talked
about
the
budget
a
little
bit
in
general
terms.
F
I
believe
that
what
we're
trying
to
do
in
this
budget
is
try
to
fund
many
of
the
capital
issues
that
we've
had
the
last
two
years
that
have
come
up,
not
can't
fund
them
all,
but
start
the
process
to
correct
some
of
these
issues,
whether
they
be
drainage,
whether
they
be
sidewalks
infrastructure
for
the
town.
Again,
one
of
the
things
a
theme
we've
had
in
the
last
couple
years
is
you
know?
How
can
we
improve
the
image,
the
town?
F
So
one
of
the
areas
that
we're
trying
to
do
with
the
budget
is
to
invest
in
capital
for
projects
that
have
been
identified
to
the
town
by
residents
and
citizens
the
last
few
years-
and
you
mentioned
the
lighting
by
putting
it
in
this
capital.
F
We
can
use
it
this
year
before
the
season
and
this
isn't
a
can
it's
in
a
capital
fund.
So
there
is
no
july
1st
june
30th
it's
there
and
we're
looking
at
this
lighting
issue
to
see
if
we
can
do
that
or
recommend
doing
that
before
really
or
as
before.
The
season
starts
or
close
to
so
we're
looking
at
that,
and
that
may
be
a
proposal.
That's
coming
up
in
the
very
near
future
and
there's
other
proposals
we're
looking
at
that
would
be
put
into
the
budget
process,
and
that
would
be
reviewed.
F
And,
ultimately
you
know
the
council
will
make
you
know
decisions
as
to
how
it's
being
allocated.
But
you
know
because
remember
a
few
weeks
ago,
months
ago,
a
couple
months
ago,
the
the
town
in
it
had
used
the
unassigned
capital
funds
into
the
general
fund,
and
I
guess
you
can,
but
that's
not
how
we
reflect
in
the
auditor's
statements.
F
So
the
decision
was
made
to
put
that
back
in.
So
we
have
about
four
hundred
thousand
dollars.
We
didn't
have
last
year
that
can
be
utilized
for
capital
projects.
We
have
this
amount
and
we're
trying
and
we
budgeted
some
last
year.
So
one
of
the
items
you
know
again
and
this
we'll
get
into
a
little
bit
further
down.
F
This
has
been
a
very
different
type
of
budget
year
for
a
number
of
reasons,
but
we're
hoping
to
put
investment
back
into
the
community.
So
you
know,
residents
will
see
things
being
done
in
the
community
to
assist
long-standing
problems
again
a
start.
F
F
It
can
be
used
for
a
category
amount
that
can
be
used
for
public
works,
related
projects
that
can
go
before
the
council
and
say,
okay.
What
do
we
want
to
do
with
this?
So
I
won't
mention
a
little
bit
later.
We
talk
about
budgets
and
things,
so
I
I
I
do,
I'm
glad
the
council
agrees
and
bringing
the
capital,
because
sometimes
when
you
get
money
in
you
know,
the
natural
inclination
is
okay.
We
can
put
in
a
regular
budget
as
a
revenue
and
but
capital
like
one-time
revenues.
F
F
But
I'll
go
on
a
little
bit
like
I
keep
on
saying
a
little
bit
later,
I'm
going
on,
but
I
I
would
agree-
and
I
appreciate
the
council
putting
this
in
the
capital
where
we
have
flexibility
now
and
then,
as
july
1st
comes
in.
Hopefully.
H
D
A
Just
want
to
make
a
clarification:
it's
not
scott
nigel!
That's
scout
nigel,
yes,
kind
of
know
the
family
from
hockey
my
hockey
years,
so
that
just
felt
wrong
on
the
agenda.
Don
donald.
C
K
Nigel
stafford,
seventeen
shower
and
drive
concentrate
honorable
town
council,
town
manager,
members
of
the
audience.
My
name
is
nigel
stafford.
I'm
a
member
of
group,
one
coventry
for
my
eagle
project.
I
would
like
to
put
mile
markers
along
the
westward
bike
path.
My
plan
is
to
start
where
the
coventry
path
meets
the
westward
path,
which
is
right
near
the
our
lady
of
chester,
open
church.
It
will
end
where
the
west
ward
path
meets
the
war
past,
which
is
near
where
tolgay
road
meets
providence
street.
K
The
markers
are
going
to
be
made
from
a
0.060
gauge,
aluminum
sign
placed
on
a
u-channel
green
sign
post.
The
signs
will
be
6
inches
by
12
inches
and
placed
every
half
mile
for
approximately
3
miles
on
each
post.
There
will
be
a
sign
on
the
front
and
one
on
the
back
that
way.
They'll
be
useful
for
people
going
both
ways
along
the
path
on
the
commentary,
path
in
westwood
path,
meade
and
the
westwork
path
and
warcraft
meet.
There
will
also
be
a
sign
welcoming
people
into
each
town.
K
K
More
importantly,
it'll
allow
people
in
emergency
situations
to
easily
first
respond
at
approximately
which
point
they
are
along
the
path
for
the
first
responders
can
reach
the
scene
faster.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration
in
reviewing
my
proposal
and
I'd
like
to
thank
the
student
for
helping
me
with
my
project.
K
We
have
a
family
friend,
mr
mike
keller.
He
will
be
providing
the
signs.
K
A
E
Yeah,
it's
actually
a
great
idea.
Actually
I
had
I
had
several
long
conversations
with
the
gentleman
from
cranston
a
few
years
back
about.
He
wanted
to
do
this
across
the
whole
state
and
make
it
mandatory.
I
think
it's
an
awesome
idea
and
for
the
reasons
you
give
when
you're
out
there
I
mean
I'm
on
the
bike
path.
A
lot
not
lately
as
you
can
see,
but
you
don't
know
where
you
are.
If
you
haven't
been
out
there
enough,
you
know.
E
So
if
you
do
need
to
call
you
know
if
you're
on
the
street,
you
know
where
you
are
like,
I'm
you
know
in
front
of
town
hall,
but
when
you're
in
the
bike
path,
you
kind
of
don't
know
where
you
are.
If
something
were
to
happen,
so
it's
good
to
have
those
markers,
so
you
can
tell
that
I'm
at
mile
mark
or
whatever.
So
I
think
it's
a
great
idea.
Thank
you.
B
J
I
think
the
boy
scouts
when
they
do
projects
like
this
will
have
a
release
that
will
release
and
identify
the
town.
So
if
they're
out
there
working
something
should
happen
normally
you
guys,
I
believe
you
guys
have
insurance
for
your
troop.
Yes,
so
normally
that's
we're
an
indemnified
party.
So
as
long
as
they
have
the
right
type
of
documents,
which
they
normally
have
they'll
just
sign
off
on
that
okay.
K
All
together,
there'll,
be
six
markers
and
they'll,
be
the
two
signs
welcoming
into
each
town.
A
Any
other
questions
for
nigel.
No,
I
don't
want
to
thank
you
for
your
hard
work
and
dedication
and
thank
you
for
your
coventry
resident
and
thank
you
for
coming
into
west,
walk
and
and
stepping
across
town
lines.
A
H
A
H
C
So,
as
you
can
see,
we
have
our
budget
workshop
date
set
and
our
budget
hearings
set
for
general
fund,
but
I
know
last
year
we
wanted
to
do
civic
center
concurrently.
So
I
just
want
your
guidance
in
what
dates
you
should
set
a
workshop
for
the
civic
center
because
it
has
to
be
advertised
separately
and.
C
March
16th
is
a
monday.
We
have
you
could
tack
it
on
after
to
follow
general
fund
workshop,
the
17th,
I
believe
you
guys
have
an
executive
session
before
so
we're
going
to
go
before
the
24th.
There's
no
consolation
as
well
or
you
could
pick
a
different
way.
I.
A
A
B
A
F
Can
you,
since
the
general
fund
hearings,
you
know,
are
there?
She
said
why
not
just
suggest
and
just
add
on
either
beginning
or
end,
because
again
we
did
hear
the
discussion
about
the
relationship
between
the
civic
center
and
general
fund.
It
is
one
so
we
agree
and
that's
why
we're
trying
to
put
them
together
because
there
is
a
relationship
there.
So
we.
F
C
C
H
So
I
believe
so
every
every
department.
J
I
want
to
get
carved
out
like
parks
and
rec
has
over
the
past
couple
years.
They
follow
the
same
rule
of
thumb
as
sewer
and
general
fund
two
two
meetings,
and
usually
it's
just
if
there's
no
questions
or
no
answer,
they're,
not
even
too
many
meetings.
F
Sorry
right
wastewater,
yes,
because
there
is
a
chartered
enterprise
fund.
I
don't
believe
there
is
a
special
regulation
on
how
things
should
be
done,
so
it
just
sort
of
mirrors.
You
know
the
the
budget
workshop
where
questions
are.
E
B
D
F
Yes,
we
received
a
request
from
the
rhode
island
department
of
public
utilities
to
hold
a
a
comment
hearing
on
for
the
kin
county,
warranty,
water
authorities,
great
proposal
now
they'd
like
to
use
a
council
chamber.
So
in
discussion
with
you
know
some
employees
there
are.
There
was
a
restriction
on
the
use
of
the
council
chambers,
section,
2-1
use
of
town
hall
and
council
chambers,
the
town
hall
and
council
chamber
shall
be
used
for
town
purposes
and
no
other
purposes
whatsoever,
come
unless
a
specific
order
by
the
town
council.
F
So
what
the
request
is
is
the
to
receive
comment
on
the
kent
county,
water
authority's
rate
filing,
and
it's
common
that
they'll
ask
for
hearings
to
be
in
the
city
hall,
town
hall,
at
the
council
chambers,
where
people
will
know
the
common
comment
on
now
again
they
have
the
dates
here
that
they
requesting.
I
know
one
day
it
is
off
because
of
the
budgets
and
looking
at
this
looking
at
some
of
the
literature
here,
it
appears
that
they
are
asking
for
an
overall
rate
decrease
so
yeah
they
can.
F
F
From
my
quick
read
is
the
it
seems
like
lower
lower
pipes
with
lower
services
which
are
residential,
would
go
down
and
they
have
some
adjustment
to
larger
entities
and
industrial
and
but.
J
F
B
F
F
Well,
they
had
four
days
march
monday
march,
30th
tuesday
march
31st,
which
is
a
budget
hearing
wednesday
april
1st
and
monday
april
6th.
So.
F
D
There's
a
planning
board
meeting
march
31st,
there's
a
public
hearing
and
also
remember
we
would
have
to
have
people
in
the
building
to
open
the
police.
One.
A
That's
the
concern
I
have
is
what
hours
of
operation
do
they
want
to
do
this
at
and
she's
going
to
be
here,
so
that
means
somebody
has
to
be
here
to
open
the
building,
close,
the
building
and
whatever.
So
so,
obviously,
that's
going
to
put
an
expense
on
us.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
can
do
that.
You
know
the
question
I
have
is
ernie.
I
know
it's
a
public
hearing
for
the
puc.
A
F
We
can
look,
try
to
look
quickly
to
see
if
that
would
be
any
difference,
differentiation,
whether
it's
a
town
meeting
or
a
non-town
meeting,
I'm
not
sure.
C
A
Come
five
o'clock,
5
30
the
maintenance
guy
locks
the
front
door
when
he's
done
cleaning
the
building.
So
would
we
have
the
maintenance
guy
stay
late
that
day
what
you
know?
How
long
do
we
plan
on
keeping
him
here?
You
know,
will
he
be
busy
and
or
he
or
she
be
busy
and
are
they
able
to
lock
up
to
keep
offices
open
or
whatever
I
mean?
That's,
that's
the
question
I
mean.
J
J
A
J
C
H
J
B
J
B
J
C
F
It
may
be,
this
is
like
the
central
area,
and
since
we
have
all
of
the
town
has
kent
county
water.
This
is
maybe
it
seems
like
they
want
a
a
hearing
in
west
walmart
some
place,
and
this
seemed
to
be
their
first
place
to
ask.
B
My
only
concern
is
because
we
don't
know,
I
don't
care
that
means
here
or
not,
but
if
we
have
a
person
here
to
open
and
close
we're
paying
that
salary
who's
going
to
gauge,
because
there's
many
other
towns
involved
and
you
may
have
two
people,
four
people
come
at
a
time
from
different.
You
know
you
come
as
a
group,
I
guess,
are
we
going
to
be
able
to
hold
it
and
who
makes
that
decision?
You're.
J
Going
to
have
to
speak
through
the
fire
department
in
that
particular
evening
and
chief,
I
believe,
someone's
usually
available
to
ascertain
as
to
whether
or
not
the
fire
code
is
being
complied
with,
and
if
they
make
the
call
that
it's
not,
then.
Obviously
the
meeting
can't
go
forward
anyway,
because
they
would
have
to
change
the
location.
Okay,.
J
E
J
Well,
I
mean
theoretically,
they
could
use
the
harper
library
downstairs
and
they've
got
the
same
amount
of
space.
So
there's
there's
enough
public
places
that
they
could
have
the
meeting
in
west
warwick.
But
you
got.
D
F
D
C
44
brat
lane,
my
daughter,
is
working
part-time
at
the
westwood
public
library
and
that,
I
think,
would
be
a
very
appropriate
place
to
have
something
like
the
public
utilities.
Commission
being
there.
They
have
meeting
rooms
and
she
was
telling
me
that
it's
hardly
ever
used
and
so
there's
there's
definitely
a
resource.
I
think
a
resource
that
might
be
more
appropriate
for
that,
as
well
as
the
senior
center
as
well.
So
I'm
just
kind
of
just
reinforcing
what
mr
williams
had
already
said.
But
that's
what
immediately
came
to
mind.
I
just
think
it
would
be.
E
F
J
Also,
please
keep
in
mind
that
if
you
were
to
allow
this
to
happen,
you
might
have
other
groups
come
in
saying
you
know.
Can
we
please
utilize
your
town
hall?
So
if
you
don't
have
some
type
of
rules
and
regulations
in
place
regarding
compensation
or
recompensation
of
people
that
are
going
to
be
here,
they
might
have
some
questions
and
issues.
E
C
A
A
F
You
know
you
have
the
department's
request,
but
the
department's
requests
are
going
to
be
in
some
cases,
the
same
so
many
cases
different
and
many
cases,
maybe
something
new
that
has
not
appeared
on
the
budgets
of
the
directors
again.
F
This
process
is,
they
said
different
in
a
sense
that,
during
the
really
first
24
months,
I've
been
here.
F
First
budget
was
really
like
stabilizing
the
town,
because
coming
in
the
fiscal
responsibilities
were
and
challenges
were,
were
great
and
we
sort
of
worked
and
developed
a
good
team
and
we're
sort
of
on
a
good
track.
There
second
budget
was
a
lot
of
outstanding
issues,
labor
and
personnel
and
things
and
this
budget
the
intent
is
to
try
to
develop
programs
policies
to
make.
F
Would
be
a
benefit
to
the
residents,
so
it's
a
work
in
progress
as
well
as
which
we,
which
we
also
encounter
every
year.
You
know
the
governor's
budget,
and
what
does
that
mean?
You
know
for
the
town,
so
our
budget
preparation
was
challenged
in
a
sense
that
the
governor's
proposed
budget
cuts
distress,
aid,
community,
400
000.
F
So
now
we
have
to
try
to
look
at
what
we
wanted
to
do
based
upon
that
number,
and
hopefully
the
legislature
will
change
that,
but
that
change
would
only
occur
after
this
budget
was
adopted,
so
the
general
general
assembly
went
up
without
their
budget
until
later.
So
when
we
prepare
the
budget,
we
have
to
use
that
as
an
assumption,
because
that's
the
only
assumption
that
we
have
is
what
the
governor
is
proposing.
F
And
if
it
does
happen,
then
that
would
be
unanticipated
revenue
that
could
go
into
a
whatever
it
would,
although
could
go
to
the
the
undecided
fund
balance
or
it
could
be
reappropriated
to
some
worthy
expense
that
the
council
would
desire.
I
get
talking
on
the
theme
of
trying
to
begin
the
process
of
rectifying
some
of
these
issues,
whether
it
be
drainage
or
whatever,
so
that
gives
us
flexibility.
F
The
bike's
also
going
to
be
impacted
by
events
after
the
budget
submitted
like
the
revenues.
That's
always
a
moving
target,
not
necessarily
but
for
real
estate
and
real
estate
is
going
to
be
pretty
much
locked.
Motor
vehicle
pricing
can
change,
as
well
as
the
change
in
the
governor's
proposed
budget
on
how
that's
going
to
factor
in
because
she
changed
the
formula
a
little
bit
from
what
is
law
and
the
tangible
personal
properties
is
a
big
number
and
that
is
going
to
be
supposed
to
be
filed
by
the
15th.
F
So
that's
going
to
be
an
estimate,
I
guess-
and
there
are
some
potentially
big-
swings
there
and
trying
to
work
to
figure
that
one
out,
but
that
could
be
a
subsequent
event.
So
this
budget
is
a
little
bit
different.
F
The
budget
is
going
to
be
different
because
there
will
be
a
significant
budget
message
as
to
the
direction
and
theme
of
the
budget,
which
I'm
hopeful
will
be
a
transition
budget
to
start
to
do
things
for
the
town,
things
that
have
been
brought
up,
the
last
you
know
24
months,
at
least
through
my
tenure.
K
F
About
it,
but
at
the
same
time,
like
anything
else,
trying
to
finalize
things
that
are
new
different,
you
know
there's
challenges
there.
So
I'm
hopeful
that
the
budget
that's
submitted
is
going
to
be
very
well
very
well
received
by
the
council
and
the
residents,
which
always
remains
to
be
seen
correct,
but
it
may
require
submitting
it
at
the
last
day
that
it
is
available
to
be
submitted.
F
B
F
F
Be
the
complete
budget
package
and-
and
this
will
be,
I
think,
a
lot
easier
to
flow,
because
anything
different
major
is
going
to
be
identified
in
the
budget
message.
So
we
will
be
calling
out
things
that
are
different,
changed
increased
decrease.
Anything
major
is
going
to
be
identified,
so
you'll
have
that
as
the
guide
as
to
where
to
go.
So
you
won't
have
to
try
to
look
for,
or
you
know,
hunt
and
peck
to
find
it
everything's
going
to
be
identified
out
there
so
that
you'll
be
able
to
readily
see
it.
F
The
public
will
be
able
to
readily
see
what's
out
there
and
if
there
are
some
issues
such
as,
for
example,
the
issue
about
the
distressed
community,
that's
going
to
be
in
there
as
a
an
issue
that
as
a
revenue
that
we
can't
use,
but
we
may
be
able
to
so
this
budget
is
going
to
lay
out
what
we
know
for
sure,
maybe
what
we
believe
and
maybe
what
we
hope
for,
but
it's
it
may
be
shaping
up
to
to
be.
There
are
some
things
that
may
be
better
than
what
we
put
into
the
budget.
F
It
depends
on
how
things
fall
and
how
much
data
that
I
can
get
in
a
very
short
period
of
time.
So
I
think
this
is
you
know
we'll
have,
I
think,
you'll,
I'm
hopeful
that
the
council
will
be
pleased
in
in
directions
because,
as
we
know,
when
you
look
at
the
charts,
you
know
the
fund
balance,
you
know
you
see
how
the
trajectory
was
and
stabilized,
and
now
it's
it's
building
itself
back
up.
F
F
Like
sometimes
it's
one
step
forward,
two
steps
back,
but
the
trends
we're
seeing
are
positive
and
some
of
the
outlying
things
that
could
occur
may
be
positive.
I
don't
know
yet
so
and
again
we
we've
we've
taken
measures
last
year
to
cushion
things
for
this
year,
so
I
think
we,
this
may
be
a
good
transition
year
to
do
some
positive
things.
Some
things
will
be
the
same.
A
A
Year
is
our
message
to
the
public
and
especially
during
our
time,
financial
meeting,
that
we
don't
have
a
long,
drawn-out
explanation
because
that'll
put
somebody
to
sleep,
we
are
short
sweet
and
to
the
point,
and
that's
that's
the
only
request
I
have
on
this
year's
budget.
F
But,
as
you
know,
my
my
presentations
are
very
quick.
F
H
A
C
D
F
Right,
it's
just
sort
of
a
follow-up
to
sort
of
a
request
that
was
sort
of
made
last
year,
but
this
is
a
bad
time
because
of
all
the
meetings
that
we
have.
But
what
I'm
hopeful
from
this
would
be
the
ability
to
sit
down
with
the
council
president
and
try
to
figure
out
a
time
when
this
you
know
when
we
could
have
this
meeting.
A
And
he
said
that
he'd
like
to
you
know,
sit
down.
He
sat
down
with
john
and
I
asked
the
fianna
we
had
any
concerns
and
then
he
also
stated
that
he'd
like
to
bring
us
back
before
the
council
and
he
said,
go
ahead
in
a
few
months
has
gone
by
so
now.
I
know
he
so
tell
us.
You
know,
first
and
foremost,
I'd
like
to
make
sure
we're
affording
the
time
to
give
him
this
evaluation,
and
also
you
know
I
don't
want
to
say
it's
only
a
half
hour
an
hour.
A
B
B
Busy
month
for
everybody
with
all
these
meetings,
but
you
know
he's
our
number
one
guy
and
I
think
that
we
owe
it
to
him
to
have
full
discussion
on
what
we
want
to
talk
about
when
what
our
town
manager
wants
to
talk
about,
and
that
could
lead
to
just
what
he
went
over
in
general
and
generally
in
the
upcoming
budget
of
of
a
vision
I
mean
my
word
is
vision
like
not
this
year,
but
where
do
we
want
to
see
ourselves?
You
know
in
the
next.
F
F
It's
like
you,
take
a
breath
and
before
you
know
it
it's
june,
but
I
think
that
you
know
we
can
sit
down,
try
to
figure
out
how
we
estimate
how
long
it
may
be
and
then
come
back
with
a
you
know,
a
date
and
time
for
you
know
the
council's
full
review
and
then
said
it
and
then
there
we
go.
B
H
H
That's
that's
okay,
but
we
had
a
lot
of
people.
Tell
us
that
you
know
I've
had
people
say
that
the
sign
out
here
works.
I
don't
know
if
that's
true
or
not
or
or
other
places,
but
I
think
we
need
to
have
a
game
plan
and
formulate
something
and
not.
E
A
E
J
E
B
J
Unless
you
want
to
do
three
different
types
of
correspondence
for
notification,
what
I'm
talking
about
is
other
communities
use
a
letter
usually
from
the
manager
and
the
council
president
as
to
what's
going
to
be
presented
at
the
financial
tel
meeting
and
what
you're
being
asked
to
vote
on
at
the
referendum
make
it
one
page
bullet
points
you
know
not
not
not
dates
of
you
know
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
the
dog
pound
on.
You
know
nothing
no
offense
to
the
dog
pound
people,
but
I.
H
Think
we
actually
need
to
involve
the
schools
as
well.
I
mean
they're
asking
for
money
this
year
and
it's
important
that
everybody
understand
that
and
what
that
one
is
being
used
for-
and
I
know
they're
they're
thinking
about
messaging
as
well.
I
I
know
that
I'm
involved
in
a
subcommittee
that
they
put
together
about
pr
in
general,
but
so
just
things
to
think
about.
I
I
would
keep
this
as
an
item
marianne,
so
we
don't
lose
track
of
it
and
we're
not
sitting
here
the
day
before.
E
C
J
H
So
well,
I
think
there
was
value
in
in
the
exercise
you
went
through
last
year
in
explaining
and
that's
a
good
thing
to
have
so
people
can
read
who
have
some
financial
background.
I
do
agree
with
dave.
We
need
to
have
something:
that's
a
little
more
quick
hitting
as
well.
I
don't
think
that
that
you
should
do
away
with
that,
because
it
did
give
some
explanation
to
the
process.
So
that's
an
updating
of
what
you
did
last
year.
H
That
shouldn't
be
a
whole
new
redo,
but
I
think
we
do
need
to
get
other
more
innovative
ways
to
remind
people
about
when
the
dates
are
and
the
importance
of
getting
out
to
vote
and.
E
This
letter-
and
we
still
should
make
every
effort
to
do
it,
but
I
mean
social
media
old
school
letters.
Robocalls
I
mean,
I
think
those
are
three.
We
put
it
on
the
side
outside
after
that.
It's
it's
kind
of
like
out
of
our
hands.
If
they
you
know
well,
I
mean
I
agree
with
all
those
things
the
most
as
much
as
we
can
get
it
out
there
right.
I
mean
how
many
what
percentage
do
we
give
the
populations
like?
What
was
last
year's
vote?
How
many
people
did
we
get
super
low?
B
A
B
A
And
the
other
thing
too
is
when
the
school
has
their
robocalls
remember.
It
goes
to
either
homes
with
students
or
former
students
in
the
town
of
westworld.
So
not
every
resident
will
get
a
robocall
from
the
school
side.
When
we
do
the
red
alert
factor,
only
people
who
are
registered
on
that
will
get
that
phone
call
right.
So.
C
A
F
F
I
agree
that
some
type
of
a
document
to
go
out
to
them-
and
I
have
seen
some
places
where
you
have
nice-
it's
not
really
a
letter,
but
it's
a
nice
one
page
and
it's
sort
of
really
nicely
done.
Like
you
get
a
flyer
but
hitting
the
high
points,
you
know
nicely
looking
prepared
right
in
color.
You
know,
of
course,
but
you
know
you
open
it
up
and
you
look
real
quickly
and
you
see
okay,
what
are
the?
What
are
the
major
initiatives?
What's
the
cost?
F
What's
it
gonna
affect
me?
What
are
we
getting
for
our
our
budget
and
it
could
be
a
nice
one
page,
maybe
even
like
the
flyer
or
something
where
they
open
up.
You
know
and
it
opens
up
like
one
page,
but
it
has
a
very
classy
looking.
F
D
D
B
I
began
planning
the
the
fourth
annual
extravaganza
last
week,
exo
already
well.
They
should
be
delivered
to
my
house.
Three
boxes
of
eggs.
B
My
kids
paid
for
that,
but
but
anyway,
so
I'm
looking
to
do
that
again
for
the
community
tons
of
prizes,
I'm
still
working
out
the
details
of
who's
going
to
be
there
for
vendors
sponsored
by
belize
honda.
Again,
I'm
going
to
be
start
going
to
start
working
on
the
flyers
very
shortly.
I'll
probably
put
this
on
the
agenda
again
for
the
council,
easter
bunny
will
be
there
all
free
for
the
town,
the
townspeop,
for
every
anybody
that
comes
in.
B
I
am
going
to
be
asking
for
for
canned
good
donations
again,
just
I'm
not
sure
where
they're
going
to
go
yet
either
at
church
or
or
help
the
homeless
or
not,
but
they'll
be
delivered
to
them.
And
you
know
it's
all
free
free
for
the
community.
So.
A
Chad,
I
know
this
is
a
huge
event
now
that
you
take
on
you
and
your
family
every
year.
I
know
I've
attended.
I
think
three
out
of
the
four
and
last
year
I
got
to
participate
with
a
couple
of
extra
kids
of
my
own,
and
it
was
very
interesting
for
them.
They
had
a
great
time,
it's
great,
seeing
all
the
families
having
a
great
time
up
there
and
enjoying
themselves
and
the
way
it's
run.
It's
you
know
for
the
age
groups,
you
you
work
it
out
very
well.

comment-
and
I
do
I
have
a
couple
of
items
and
only
I'm
bringing
these
up
because
we're
not
going
to
meet
again
before
the
next
agenda.
The
city
of
newport
office
of
the
mayor
has
sent
us
a
request
on
saturday
march
14,
2020
newport
will
celebrate
its
64th
annual
st
patrick's
day.
Parade
will
be
honored
if
you
would
participate
in
the
festivities
and
march
in
a
parade.
So
if
the
council
is
looking
to
do
that,
we
would
have
to
inform
them.
A
I
know
we
haven't
done
it
in
the
past,
but
they
do
invite
us.
I
just
want
to
make
that
clear
to
the
council.
If
you,
if
anybody
wants
to
march
it
might
not
be
all
of
us,
but
if
somebody
wants
to
that's
up
to
us
last
night:
west
warwick,
girls,
basketball,
high
school
team,
I
know
mary
beth
and
I
are
both
in
the
audience
full
house
packed
they
moving
on
into
the.
A
This
is
their
best
year
in
almost
20
years
of
basketball.
There
coach
lawton
was
very
happy
to
see
a
lot
of
us
there,
former
players
and
whoever
else
was
in
the
crowd
on
their
chair,
but
they
came
out
to
beat
a
team
cumberland
who
beat
them
by
over
20
points
earlier
in
the
season
and
the
hard
work
of
those
girls
they're
moving
on
into
and
we'll
know
more.
I
think
after
tonight
I
think
actually.
A
A
They
have
a
core
four
core
five
on
there
and
if
you
go
there
and
watch,
it's
basically
a
long
game
for
those
girls
and
they
put
their
hearts
at
it
last
night
and
they
and
they
pulled
that
out.
H
Actually,
just
as
a
side
note,
steve
martin
was
named
the
d2
coach
of
the
year
coach.
A
Of
the
year,
yes,
and
also
I
got
to
watch
him
on
tv
a
couple
weeks
ago.
It
was
interesting
good
to
watch
and
also,
if
you
get
to
listen
to
him
on
95.1
john
parente,
and
I
told
rich
grenier
last
night,
he
definitely
has
a
face
for
the
radio.
He
did
a
great
job
on
that.
He
does
a
great
job
and
john
john
botello,
john
parente
and
rich
grenier
be
covering
those
games,
and
the
last
thing
I
have
in
I
drove
by
the
other
day.
Where
did
that
100?
C
A
And
the
reason
why
I'm
asking
is
our
west
park
high
school
students
did
that
hard
work
and
I
just
don't
want
to
see
it
destroyed.
I
think
if
we
get
it
back
to
them,
they
might
be
able
to
clean
it
up
and
fix
it
up
for
us.
So
if
we
can
look
into
the
100
yes
sign
and
make
sure
it
didn't
get
tossed,
I
mean
those.
The
children
really
did
a
great
job
on
that
and
they
donated
it
to
the
town
of
westwood.
B
I
have
one
thing
and,
following
your
positives,
I'm
going
to
bring.
I
guess
it's
a
negative.
There
was
a
it
came
to
my
attention
and
I
received
phone
calls
on
this
today
regarding-
and
I
know
don
is
not
here
and
it's
a
beautiful
day
out.
60
degrees,
everybody's
outside
a
lot
of
questions
about
the
crompton
playground,
a
lot
of
negative
comments.
It
is
my
ward.
B
I've
I've
been
mentioning
this.
I
don't
know,
maybe
four
months
of
when
it's
going
to
be
cleaned.
Now
we
have
people
that
are
interested
in
going
out
and
doing
a
cleanup,
which
is
a
good
thing,
but
in
I
read
all
the
posts,
then
in
other
posts
that
follow
that.
If
I'm
saying
this
right,
there's
one
main
one
main
post
and
everybody
tries
to
respond
on
it.
B
People
talking
about
needles
down
there
being
talking
about
dog
feces
down
there
again,
I
haven't
been
on
the
playground
on
the
grounds
to
to
physically
see
all
this,
but
I
really
think
it's
it's
the
job
of
our
parks
department
to
to
get
it
done
and
what
I'm
going
to
say.
It's
been
four
months.
I've
been
requesting
this
so
I'll.
Even
throw
out
a
flat
top,
because
these
are
my
areas
in
in
my
ward,
everybody
else
can
speak
about
their
own
warts.
B
J
So,
theoretically,
because
the
department
numbers
personnel,
collective
bargaining
issues,
my
suggestion
would
be-
is
not
to
discuss
it.
A
public
comment
put
it
on
a
normal
agenda
item
and
if
you
want
certain
people
here
to
answer
questions
specifically
about
the
playground,
that
would
be
your
opportunity
to.
A

Good
news,
preventative
news,
so
you
know
we
have
posted
some
things
on
social
media.
We
posted
on
the
town
website
and
we
were
part
of
a
conference
call
with
the
rhode
island
department
of
health
and
one
of
the
things
that
they
really
recommend
is
that
everyone
has
a
flu
shot,
even
though
it's
not
for
the
particular
strain
of
the
covid19,
it
will
help
reduce
the
severity.
If
you
do
get
the
flu
okay,
so
we're
going
to
run
a
flu
clinic
in.
C
We
have
a
tentative
date
of
march
12
at
the
senior
center.
So
a
week
from
thursday,
the
state
is
going
to
come
in
they're
hiring
a
company
to
come
in
and
administer
flu
shots
for
anybody.
C
C
We
have
the
blood
drive
the
following
monday:
the
16th
day
of
the
solving
so
yeah.
C
H
C
C
C
H
A
Know
recommendations
are
you
know
that,
because
we've
been
following
also
there's
no
secret,
there.
G
But
the
recommendations.
A
No,
but
but
again
in
general,
but
I
damper
on
you,
but
you
know
we're
looking
at
april
11th
for
the
easter
egg
hunt
and
all
that,
so
we
got
to
make
sure
that
you
know
how
things
are
going
here
in
west
warwick.
You
know
no
hidden
secret.
There
was
a
case
here
in
west
warwick
out
of
business,
which
they
did
evacuate
the
building
and
clean
it
and
sanitize
it,
and
I
want
to
thank
the
people
who
did
reach
out
to
me
today.
I
do
not
report
to
that
building.
A
So
I'm
out
of
cranston
and
no
I
do
not,
and
people
did
ask
me
if
I
had
the
coronavirus,
I
do
not
have
the
coronal
virus,
but
again
I
won't
be
here.
If
that's
the
case,
I'd
be
home
14
days.
That's
right.
Will
those
times
be
posted
on
the
website.
Yes,
we'll
make
sure
they're
there.
Thank
you
any
other
public
comment.
