school media sun ourselves street to review the application submitted by and yes i will see for cop stadium advisory committee welcome thank you so look america vent is is a major international soccer event it's the first time in a hundred years it's been here in the united states it was a two year process for us to bid event we are one of twenty ten cities around the united states that are hosting a competition through this at sixteen teams from north america and south america and and so we're honored to to be a part of this this event here and bring some of the best soccer teams in the world to foxboro for the three days of competition so the first day june tenth we have chile which is currently number five in the world against  a we expect we expect probably in the thirty thousand range for that event i know it's in the application and on the advisory committee as noted is forty thousand that was noted before we knew the teams that cut were assigned to us the teams were just declared on february twenty first so we're probably expecting that in the thirty thousand range for that the second day on sunday june twelfth brazil which is currently number six in the world is playing peru and we do expect close to a full house for that event and then on saturday june a team we have a quarter final event that potentially will include argentina should it be the number one seed in its in its bracket and argentina currently is number two in the world and should argentina play here certainly we wouldn't be expecting that close to a full house for that event as well so selling the tickets in three games strips right now at some point in your excuse me in the near future they'll start breaking it out into single game ticket sales the ticket prices are not cheap depending on where you would like to sit for the three game sessions you can buy a ticket for one hundred sixty five up to sixteen hundred dollars for ticket if you'd like to sit close to the field all seats are reserved for this event we expect that the gates will open two hours prior to each game time lots will open four hours prior to game time we are from a security standpoint going to in essence use the what has been called in the past the n that policy we now at the stadium are using the clear back policy for all ticketed events at the stadium from a security protocol standpoint so we will be utilizing the clear bag process  day on that saturday night we will for the ticket office and all four also for a guest services be hiring translators for the fans so that we can accommodate those that need to buy tickets  on game day and also those that have questions either prior to entering the stadium or once they do enter the stadium staffing standpoint should there be any exhibitors we are talking to with with the copa folks about a fan activity area should there be a fan activity area and should they have any desire and sampling we will certainly process through the health department the appropriate application and we will provide the application to any of the coppa sponsors looking to to sample and they will submit that directly to the town we do recognize that the folks were high school graduation is june twelfth and that there is a planned event showcase live so that will be an opportunity timing of that in relationship to the timing of the start of the game that night the game does on the twelfth the game does start at eight thirty that night questions we're really regarding the founders day weekend and the high school night party i think that will be doa with accordingly without any problem ok there's also some correspondence from the town of walpole on their security because it's such a large event is there any correspondence with the town of walpole police department no but if they if they have any issues you certainly have dealt with the town of well what have they have concerns may come to us  in the end given that most of us i'm assuming the vast majority of patrons this might be the first time a stadium is going to be any extra profit guidance to to get them in and out yes so what we've talked about is is especially even with the clear back policy where we're now communicating with them as they purchase their ticket their confirmation from ticketmaster includes language about the clear back policy etc i will also have e mails that will go out to t ticket buyers prior to each each of the matches that will provide game day operational information including traffic and parking and we'll also work with the police department the state police and the d o t utilizing all the digital sign know just given that it's high school graduation to just have the scene that there's going to be people wondering all the town that day this saturday it's no it's not only daytime activities it's also fireworks at night in foxboro we will be making provisions for our you know the proper case there is an issue so the intent is that we would have translators in the guest services booths and clearly if you have a public safety needs a translator to go to a certain area the stadium would we certainly accommodate that  there anyone in the audience that has input questions concerns comments saying not and seeing no more comments he guys all set with the presentation thank you i do have a motion to close the public hearing yes i make a motion we close the public ok so we were out of order a little bit just because it was a public hearing but is there anyone here for citizens input seeing none under flecked and update it seems like there's been a very long time since we've met that it couple things i wanted to bring forward first of all thank you to bob cutler and tom clerk's office pam claudine kathy and all of all in tears that were at the table for our presidential primaries  there were no issues and it was long and well attended so thank you to that group thank you to this board the staff in the advisory committee and everyone that coordinated for our fall town meeting that was also pretty well attended there was a case where we had eight articles and they were pretty well vetted i mean that the process that you brought through is precious specifically the town hall went through a lot of hands in cable access was very accommodating for a few months to put everything on cable we had different shows and different information senior center accommodated i think two meetings where we presented all of the articles and it was it was pretty well attended so thank you for everyone's participation on time meeting if you did come which is a reminder that the may process is already started so the wiser committees are the meeting we had a little bit of an overlap where they were doing double duty approving some articles and also going through the budgets for the may vote so looking forward to that in may i wanted to give a quick mention to father  wescott from st mary's church we had the privilege to go into the state house for a ceremony on february nineteenth and it was at the hall of flags at the state house where father wescott received the gung ho community service award which is given to an individual that has been outstanding in his community and father wescott community not only involves foxborough and st mary's but also walton myself and he had a few friends and his his parents were there but it was it was nice to see it on two levels it was somebody from foxborough that really was outside is outstanding in this field but at the second time the second thing  was a celebration or a recognition of the soldiers that fought and he would jima and there's a state law in massachusetts says we have to do a parade or a recognition every year i think there were what four different problem and also i was asked to bring some thanks back to the board into our town last night i went to the town of middleborough to speak to the selectmen with some members of the child sex abuse awareness committee so middle borrows a few towns south their population guys a seventeen there are about twenty three thousand so a victim of sheehan who lives in middleborough had asked their board of selectmen to mirror what asked to have the discussion of the opioid heroin discussion so they're committed to sending over at their last public hearing a representative to the committee that we're putting together with our department heads in the community so that's grown as well so thank you to the school committee for that clerical item a little bit bill keegan that is coming up on two years in april so i wanted to bring it to the board's attention we're going to have to do your public very public review so if you could reach out to the members i think what we did last time was we we you did a self evaluation i like to start off with that same criteria but give the board an opportunity after two years of his other criteria they want to add do your own review and then put it we'll put it on the agenda like to do it it would have to be done i think we do it before may so before the turning of the board so sometime unable to do your review  quick shout out to lieutenant alan haskell who just retired after thirty years in the eighty's he came on as a patrolman and then recently moved all the way up to lieutenant so that was i think he's born and bred in foxborough so it's commitment again thirty years to our town into the community so i just want to say congratulate congratulations to
