we were having late few civilians come before us for public airing for alteration of premises and new directors at seven twenty five we had scheduled red robin another public airing for the change of their location over at patriots barnard will present and we will discuss and vote on the fire contract fall by eight ten eight twenty marybeth also will talk about the policy on sexual harassment in our vacation policy photon employees at eight thirty  and then we have about a dozen action items in between so we're actually marybeth you want to lead us in the  monica fizzle for the parade itself the fireworks i think it was very well attended the public safety and all the people really that put together the the floats in the tables and and we all marched in seem like it was a good so it was great weather so it was a another good year very briefly we had a joint meeting last week we talked about it the week before i would members of the planning board at com advisory committee  the recreation board on the sharon watson pavilion down on pace and road that was pretty well attended in we got some good direction and we started today when we see there's a grant application going out and i think the different departments are looking at their role in this so again if anyone's interested probably the best person to reach if you know anybody on any of those boards reach out kind of spearheading the the list is head harding over at the rec rec director so please reach out and  still on schedule to try to put something together before i went to falls briefly just something that kind of gets forgotten sometimes jenny and i tended a meeting on saturday for the friends of the foxboro seniors and i think over the last couple  years i find a lot of us talking about the kids in the sports and the graduation in the schools but i was pretty impressed with the magnitude and the depth of that group and what they do for the town and in particular we were invited just to participate a little bit on a on a scholarship that they offered a student for her master's degree so you know it's a good example of the seniors working together and reaching out to the community so if you are a senior out there it's a great group to get involved with so  it's definitely worth the time to go to a saturday meeting one thing that's not on the agenda we talked about last time was the town common sign in a couple reasons one the gender is pretty full today but more importantly i think bill can talk about it during your time but there is a program that we're working on and so you keep those signs updated so i think we'll put it on the next the item i think you'll have time to put everything together with what i will try to work on that one item i was asked to put on the agenda and i and i purposely didn't over it for just states over along the street canoe river there's a subdivision planned there it's under appeal right now a couple people have asked me from that group down there to put it on to discussion i don't think it's appropriate at this meeting because it's a conservation commission issue planning board issue when they're dealing with the d p but i will say there is a meeting tomorrow at two informative but again it doesn't really belong in this table i think you guys got e mails at the same time so let's leave that to conquer and planning board one topic i want to talk about i went to a meeting training session on can remember back in december we had a resident urging the board to get involved to the police to get involved and do narcan training which is a dose that you give somebody that's overdosing on heroin so i went to it in mansfield it was attended by the mansfield public safety people j barrows had spearheaded it with somebody from pine street and there's three or four people in the walls chris long that started this effort over here we're going to bring that to foxboro in july it's july twenty second and it's a good opportunity it's the buzz of the state right now because the governor just released his report on how they're going to address the heroin issues it does affect fox july twenty second over at the universalist unitarian church drama common so we'll probably get flyers out for that and hopefully put something the paper and it's just a good opportunity to kind of get involved in that as well trash tags from from russell disposal and the question had had arisen as to whether or not they could get recovery in person for those those items past june third june thirtieth and i russell has offered to so site three dates two dates in july and  and we asked folks to do is to come in to bring back your bags and tags and what will happen is that you will actually be giving be given a voucher for all of those items and then you will be saving a check within ten days author to have the messages on the message boards in the common changed we actually did change the message boards and and we actually did that within forty eight hours you couldn't do it the first twenty four hours because the director was actually away and not reassigned after looking at the situation we're looking for a more practical solution to this responsibility for now we are managing the changes to the board really through our office but we are looking to get someone from perhaps the see a workout program to have these duties on a once a and secondly the tile may notice that we've added a new safety light near the common that allows but that's going to safely cross from the common towards the library during the past year we heard concerns from both residents and the police that crossing the road in this area was quite dangerous last really comment positively that this is actually a very very very good change this is a it's this is probably the least cost impact as well as the fact it was the most practical way of addressing it because we don't have any signals in this in and around the comet and this is probably the least invasive type of construction we could have done without ripping up sidewalks and tearing things up to no to do that so i'm certainly you know i do understanding the fact that now that you know perhaps we probably had a little more discussion about  light and then it just alerts people that there is a crosswalk there and lets people let people cross safely it does what happens is the traffic comes around the corner from mechanic street and a lot of times they they speed up when they try to get into into the into the rotary and then they don't they don't slow down at that particular cross walk and of course a lot of people go from the common over to the library and that that in of itself causes the the red level concern so we have young children we have employees we have  rather a lot of residents using that particular cross walk for that reason we want to make sure we have had a safe way to cross folks in that area so i just want to make everybody fully aware that i do want to if there's any comments or concerns we certainly will be so i don't to be the negative one and though she talked about it yeah i think it's great and that an honest to god i was coming up the other way you know that the traffic goes around this way came when i went the exact opposite way around the road or this morning and i know it happens often so and that that turn has been problematic coming by the library and i think it worked out well the only reason reservation i have is when we change things on the common whether it's a light and this time it worked out well any changes should really come in front of the board even though it was a you know you met out there it was fine if it was a decision that was not the right decision we end up saying how do you let that happen you know and so when we see the lights out there and someone says how did that get there and we say we don't know  you know the time we spend and whether there's a fee and i when it's reasonable to charge a fee you want it's not she went through the exemptions which were really interesting and i want to end very clearly in that book about where and when there is an exemption public record laurie and i'm not going to go through all of them as one exemption every letter of the alphabet that has three or four categories under it but the most important question the bill posed to her is where the public records law and open meeting was intercept and concurred that there's a lot of times when the two laws don't actually agree and she talked about the ability to file an appeal when there's a request whether it's with the attorney general's office on the open reading law or with the public records request she offered her personal direct line you know when there's questions encouraged when at all possible that she would answer questions she was quite knowledgeable and she so she outlined for us you know how the process works from the municipal government point of view and you know said that quite often one board like the attorney general's office wouldn't give an opinion until her office had concluded their their study or their opinion and vice versa so it was a really interesting segment i think i wish we could have gotten more in depth on some of our particular questions there were members from all departments that attended a number of your board school department a bill you attended i see very good questions on this just in the day of day and age of meat and you know responding via e mail she talked a lot about that how we can use you know tuesday june twenty third two thousand and fifteen that proximately seven fifteen p m foxboro high school media center one twenty south st barts from mass on an application to alter the premises of an all annual alcoholic beverages beverages was drawn licensing in new officers director and new stockholder for steve's lake view inc doing business says lakeview million forty five lake the road fox voted the owners on in the stages and italian not being here this evening they're on a flight back from greece to they and because of the weather the flight was delayed and we just got word just landed plane and board for site plan approval and a special permit special permit was fired because this is in a water resource district right beside a lake beaut lake so that's why we need a special permit is two main entrances which you can see on the rendering here to each of the ball rooms oh there are six additional hundreds and exits two on each side owned it but then went to a trust where they were part owners also the brothers but around the time of the fire and subsequent to it their parents actually have moved pretty much full time back to greece they hers there were no schools churches or hospitals in five hundred feet of the premises they got a five hundred foot about his list and i had big colony don't plan showing all property one five hundred feet a confirm that there were nine within that area i think everything is in your package that's required with the a b c filing which is pretty thick because you have to file a whole new application listing all that information including  of a lot of the town employees and all the departments because they had a lot of weddings and had to cancel but also they had to get this thing built as it was possible to get up and running again work was very quick the cover petition so i think i think a lot three can be done by no one vote on the one vote and then there's a form forty three that shows it was for all three things also the new officers and directors and also the new stock holders for steve lee you doing business as the motion made second is not can mean a second for the discussion favor motion carries five zero thank you very much luck  manager robert oh just the parties are welcome to attend that's the same protocol we get here from the applicant and then the time manager usually questions and again i did not ask this special to counsel here on this one if you could just introduce yourself for the record hello everyone andrew upton representing red robin international with me is patrick hardy a the acting manager what we are proposing tonight is to move red robin across patriot place the landlords have decided to build a hotel on the spot where they are already where their next old navy so there's an open spot only on the other side across the way next to the health care center so it had a little map so you can see that where it is and if you place as a former tastings corner yes it is exactly right it's not going to be very different a little more of a modern feel since this one was started in two thousand and eight will have fairly new finishes but it'll be approximately the same size same menu same concept it is expected to be a little bit busier just given the volume they've been doing in the location so it will generate we hope up to forty five more full time employees to be hired in the location it's approximately the same square footage same occupancy we have some renderings of more or less what it looks like on the inside these are the standard renderings so some of these will be tweaked to fit the needs of the actual space  so other than that it is currently being built out we took the opportunity to meet with the chief of very last week to discuss any concerns he might have and other than that we're glad to answer any questions thank you one for me patriot place that will add more more hotel rooms to the to the to the complex which you can turn will generate more more traffic onto itself the whole area the whole alleyway leading into the into the stadium is actually becoming much more of a true restaurant the detainment area in this it would actually be complementary to what's being established this i think from op is part of it it's it's probably it's and that's why it's a family oriented restaurant so they have i think it's a good balance for what's there was wealth so i think internally speaking i think it's probably a good a good fit thank you and when i see chief oliver he's not asking you to speak but where you imagine you have anything to good now i met with the applicant team as well as with brian early paper place manager i reviewed the plans and went over the operation since red robin is opened in our community  don't have any significant public safety issues there the audience a driver's family so looking for something fun and you know food that is affordable and it will be a good fit for that particular area of coverage families to walk through and come down in the area i see no problems with the change in location or continuing the licensing thank you wish it any questions or comments from able to do the timing so that we could qualify him tonight as a new manager but we have gone ahead and filled out paperwork and are prepared to file almost immediately so any approval that we have tonight would still have the manager as a  restaurant built according to this plan and it was inspected according to something else and it was kind of out of our hands because the a b c c we didn't have the authority say yes or no because it wasn't the plan that was presented to us which was a final plan that section six also stating rules and regulations will conduct a public hearing on tuesday june twenty third two thousand and fifteen beginning approximately seven forty p m foxborough high school media center to review the application with a seven thirty p m start time as with our other shows the parking lot and the time will both be to be determined are the left blank in this application of a determined with the public safety officials closer to the event day based on attendance well the ticket prices are thirty nine dollars right up to one hundred ten dollars for the most part it's all reserved seating there is a small ga section about thirty five hundred at the very front of the stage and the staging itself is actually pretty extensive it will be a rival taylor swift for the most extensive production setup that we will have this summer we do expect to have a sense of pyro as well i don't know if they've reached out to geve happy yet but they do know that they need to do that problems with sales because this is a live mission show and really didn't have a lot to say with respect to how the event was marketed and they ended up having about a five thousand ticket gap and so this they essentially they sort of paper the house and they distributed those tickets and we found it led to some confusion we had a lot of people attending the event who wouldn't otherwise attend in who weren't really invested as much in the performances just sort of getting a free ticket the good news is we won't be a problem for the show it's already sold out and we voted to recommend to you for approval thank you of this type of show ten would have to be an older crowd and if so i think you'll you'll probably see that it won't be as perhaps problematic in some cases and this as other shows is a is a rock show so obviously area or fireworks above the stage but i don't i honestly don't know i would guess probably both i've seen the just the cad renderings of the production and it's it's really massive so i guess they probably have a pretty extensive mix of stuff that all the launch at the conclusion we had that going out on thursday is just sort of a little extra notification for people in a community that they could into support you know is on friday during a more unexpected time and so if we have that opportunity again and we've already put in the asking soon as we can find out when ok so any other questions from what you want from the public i see one person i thought pouria you here for that no i can't resist i've known id for years his nickname is already the one man party and used to be in a rock band so  of refinancing the stadium and so as part of that they have to they have to we have to they have to have evidence for their financing company that and that they are in focal points where they can terminate conditions and so it terms of the leas two items under this you could have a couple minutes early but you had commercial parking regulation we provided a some revisions to the regulations and then the actual commercial parking permits which we have to act on before the end let me just i think by way of introduction of this particular item we the board what we call the last meeting we had a number of licenses placed before the board for approval some conditions that were still pending there as there are a couple that still have some some planning board approvals pending or have they been approved but i believe in some cases they want to spend just just just one is that's that's going to be the twenty fifth regulations with respect to parking more vehicles and they should be a license for or if they have no license at all though certainly be penalized for that purpose as well the the language has was circulated to not only internal problems with not designating the stadium licensed area from the positive for commercial enterprises the parking lot a lot of the parking spaces use far people going into the stores for commercial not just the state of it was everywhere right but that i don't see anything in here even even a line that says they should attempt to make to make it delineation of the  packing light after nine hundred ninety four has to go before the board of the planning board for approval and they're worth they did have the hearings and the three of the four people who were some people that were over there were over packing but legitimately they weren't over packing are they were no pakis much as they said they were because they had to have space in my vehicle the fire the air and customs going in and  spaces are or used to be for regular business purposes only and not for not for it to be used for the and that will be part of the there to submission for that their license itself may be what it's in and we talk about that because i was the most practical way we could do it given that because there are really three ways in which we look at these one is that there were clearly delineated spaces for regular business then there was clearly delayed spaces for event parking and the some grace in between which so some will be moved in and out because of the nature of the of the business that day for instance if you if you have a weekend they're on their holiday season you may have more space that you want to use for business especially in iraq patriot better indication of where people were parking and the numbers of cars of the different walks i faced on those counts we discovered some people here to have over par and as a know i'll be more directly involved with the sort of over look on a watch than the car set apart and it includes different  stadium operate as well although their number is for much greater i think it exceeds thirteen thousand license thoughts just to make sure that every law is examined fairly but actually if you took a look at the regulations there are three different layers my office the fire service as well as the building which thank you you know whoever is doing as much say i know they're supposed to be you know forty cars in here and clearly you know not even counting there's there's more than forty cars you have to make up of what you buy show spaces that are not licensed for regular retail activity so somebody doing the inspection would have that in hand i trust i mean i don't i don't think so i don't think the deputy chief or  have number eighteen came about when we started to look at the parking lot operation has the whole stadium was taken over by the craft group team started to improve prior to that the satellite lots are usually name for a particular holder like the front recall law was the christmas law up and down was added in order to standardize the process we use the street address for that particular parcel so that it would be easier to staff whether it was by people fire service the police to be able to respond to watch out problems law and that's why th number system became a requirement so first responders could get to different areas i'm not against having a number on the side but i'm more concerned with making sure that we  what they have like fifteen spaces that they use commercially we can have one seventy nine which is what their license fossa one seventy nine slash fifty so quickly you can go ok that's that they have one set one hundred seventy nine license will have to review the plans today and let me be very clear that there's no way we can do every single life every single car at the same way that this is going right joe yeah yeah location said no more additional parking no more additional parking and on the ones that were about to approve there's a couple with additional parking where are we on that silent before that i have no research records i can only give you my opinion that those lights came into existence as a matter of  selectman to fill a need for the stadium parking because they didn't have adequate parking on their lot that's was that how the satellite box came into being after ninety four became a temporary parking lot serving state immigrants became regulated through the planning board with a special permit so technically anybody that received a license apply for a license to that date should've went to the plate of work for a special program that's why you have some applicants that have i don't know if all of them do but i had to draw a line in the sand this is where we're going to start now  have specific guidelines of what you need to do to get increased lots that were established by license prior to that made ninety four a consider not conforming way if you're going to alter that which would be a request to increase the parking you need to go to the zoning board for a special permit prior to that they come to you with with a special permit from his own inboard for that it corrupts preexisting night i didn't want to do this on words that are going to over three ports that we're going to oversight this zoning planning and in both cases so it's just this is the process and it applies to everybody and it tells you pretty much where you're at most of these were there five and four go can i just ask you this a question that came up at the  you know again if they if if they know exactly what's expected i think it's much easier that this that you can get that approval but you need to go from the board that it becomes a little hard sometimes the one which is still pending which we don't this week correct and so i think the board can approve his application for sure pocking walk up to the existing number that it was approved and then if he gets approved for this right now we've we've determined the terminally that we think we have an excess of spaces where we don't need the additional spaces right now but but having said that if somebody wants to market their own spaces and they have the ability to prove by the playboy then who are we to say no it's really a free enterprise type of that and some people eager for her to pack further away from state you know walk to the stadium walk back to the stadium to get out these are all going to be approved based on the revised regulations so item number one tonight we have to finish that first whatever approval or or changes we finish that and then all of these will be there for good and i based on that we actually circulate we we met with them all we circulated the information to them we made the changes based on the real that we had circulated back to them again i would read no further comments as of today so would say group of with our mission changing that size zero zero in front of us we have the applications for two thousand  and that really in the end that last sixteen has that has the potential of being increased a little bit and i'm not i'm only thinking about like down the road when somebody wants to look at the meeting minutes  i make a motion that we take out the last sixteen you have to do that you know i would just make i would i would my recommendations he would be the make a motion to approve the locks as preserve the commercial parking lots for fiscal year two thousand and sixteen it has presented with the exception of a lot sixty look at that and they make a motion we approve the parking lot licenses for fiscal year sixteen with  of july first two thousand and fifteen through june thirtieth two thousand and sixteen with the exception of lot number sixty seven motion carry second and further discussion on that motion follows in so in our packet there was a petition looks like they're also there was signed by phil's place of residence and the letter that was sent to the board prior that castro requesting  consideration for some signage because of a increased traffic you will see roger hill here so you this is your letter and you saw the back up with it is whenever there's a back up from the common on main street southbound they use it as a cut through and it's dangerous because it's so narrow and it has that right angle bend and so the residents did petition to see if we could control some of that traffic jam at first i suggested that we might do a no thruway side but that's not correct because it is a thruway as such so i looked up the manual and i found two other people ignore them at times but there black and white and they aren't forcible if the police decide they want to enforce them we don't need both one of the others adequate because either one could be enforced  if you pull somebody over going through there and then our local person then they violated the sign what would you define local local ruby residents of fails place or gilmore street or you know somewhere in the neighborhood i would  say it's a it's a discretionary kind of a thing on the part of a police officer really i would say the no three traffic is a little more local i mean we're all local  would say that no through traffic via a better sign my opinion and i witnessed this monday night sitting in traffic and somebody behind me turned on the  and if you put it on gilmore then they going to pass that they're going to go to granite so it at what point do we look at a broader you know the poor guy at the end going to get all the traffic because he wasn't here petitioning us not rock you know doesn't get you off coming through the common and if you make the comment on the right at the common off main street on the left there's usually easy to get to it's not situate unless unless central street is backed up or a mechanic street but that seldom happen because they're not through traffic right and they're not in their local right now roger is impossible to make them want to waste or rearrange the traffic flow so it makes it annoying to try to push through the door when i wouldn't recommend that the the owners will find inconvenient to about i think i would try something like this first and if we don't have success with that then we could look at one way of thinking the one way but each other and fails i just paved and that's attractive to them too you know when they see the new pavement they say that i mean it is signs are great but people are going to they're going to do it anyway don't normally no matter what we do you're going to get some people cutting through but i'm just trying to think of but that's been the history of fox for a comment it's it's not a new thing it's just we're we seem to have more traffic today and we do we really do have more traffic than i can ever remember so he can't and one of them going up over the saw didn't take me he wasn't really back up probably didn't take you any longer to get to the com and then it did that now it was just out of frustration oh yeah this was major frustration yeah there was a long back up on the charter school let out i've seen that street main street back up to the dairy queen you know yeah yeah yeah that's true so i made over a little too i don't know the number of the house on the corner of main and fails but this three kids there is a house on the corner of gilmore street with two kids twenty six gilmore street and the lady couldn't be here tonight because she's picking her mother up at the airport she sent you a little letter here she has four kids and the other side of her house and faces granted it's three kids and i want to tell you if you stand out there i can't get my driveway yeah you stand out there when those guys are just don't want to bother just waiting out a main street they come up gerry street fails and then they'll come up gilmore street with brown on it and by the time we get down to greenwich street if they don't stand on the brakes yeah they're going to land in the church back in one and it's it's become very dangerous and i've been there for forty nine years and it's me explaining his tone was well we can only put a crew cruiser there for a couple minutes a couple minutes and then do one that good something has to be done i would personally i would love to see it be one way well one way sign you take if you take rick take the risk of driving the wrong way on a one way street and you get into an action you're going to pay heavy for it so i would that's a that's not a bad solution it's main street so they can be seen by people coming southbound on main street and i don't mind doing all three streets because we're not talking about any big money here you know and i hear what you're saying is the korean one way but if we were going in that direction traffic into the loop they're going to cut through and yeah so you know and i commit i've seen what the neighbors have done out there they put a little plastic people with the signs and play equipment on the street just to try to stop it and i my office is down in that area and the other issue i see is when the people are backed up on main street at one forty there's no respect for the people trying to get out of the side streets yesterday trying to get any right to squeeze in between two cars and then you're speeding up to take a left and you can't see the oncoming so yeah i don't know how you know i don't know what they if we give them the black and white state of they will enforce them how how long you know how many hours a day they can do that i don't know you know that's that's up to it's that's that's a but i think that at least if they've got some ability to enforce it like in the least to yes the absolute i mean all it takes is a couple of tickets so your recommendation it says local traffic only and no traffic it's not what i'll do either one or b which is what your recommendation from parents the local traffic only this is a common sign but that requires a judgment on the part of the police officer no no through traffic doesn't require a judgment he might stop a homeowner that's coming out of there but if they can prove they live on the street and they're coming out they don't get a ticket right titian they're asking for and not a through wait minding through friday three but i think the love that you know the local has its place it's its and you know it's a reinforced to the flow through traffic it really is can you put local traffic only in and underneath police take take notice you can the police take notice as an advisory side it's not the same color as the fact the driver doesn't know whether there's a policeman right at the end of the street right coming through after seinfeld and right numbers down like yeah they can find those and thirty seconds today so i said it sounds like we've got some consensus for no through traffic on the sales kilmore in granite intersections right on main street nothing on the other side obviously so if we could entertain a motion the next let's treat this union and you know i don't think it makes a lot of difference present got really ok pushing for the neighborhood i mean the suggestion you think it's going to have the impact that you're looking at least fails anyway what we're going to look at it so so can we ask you this if you guys so six months from now could you make it a point to talk to these neighbors and come back to us with this is working or it's not working so good feedback and waiting rather than waiting for the complaints that's so june july august september october you say to say october november before the winter that way if if there's an adjustment needed if we have to remove our reach we think it you usually put those to get a baseline and then you make changes in your hair and so gets a little complicated m a p c has them but they usually use them when they're trying to determine levels of service of an intersection or a road or something like that that's what their year we did  m on the street because we had to find out how many trucks versus how many cars you remember we did that jim i'm sure the residents will have a counter i don't know if it's working or not but you can come and sit in my driveway any afternoon for at least two miles all the way down to it does down to like you i mean that in forcible problem right and to help people that live way down the in the grand street if they can't the other two streets are small enough and enforceable and often easy to tell if your farm cutting through their field get the idea they'll see two in a row that are not through traffic and then local traffic only and i mean if you're driving a it's like you know what i'm saying it's i don't know how do you define a local if it requires judgement on the part of the police officer if he's going to hand out a ticket you know discretion also fails and gilmore are further  are more guilty of taking a ride on granite in the past as opposed to you know fails or the other one a lot of times i would take the writer granted and then left on market to avoid  out of the right can we maybe on granite can we do at the top no through traffic and then right after local traffic goalie right after gilmore's yeah yeah we can do that and i kind of softens the blow up a little bit not a fan of putting too many son's book well in the current has more science than you can imagine so these  these are not on the common these are off the common and they do regularly so it sounds like no through no through and then local traffic noise well yeah you're ok with that yeah and i can split it you then you come to the local traffic only and if you know but i think that just takes the curse off that's all it does i was told by officer mcgrath maybe two or three years ago that supposedly the speed limit i said oh here we go and he gather car very nice guy does around the car and granite street he said what do you think should be the speed limit here and i said i would like to see people crawling down here because there's so many little kids running around and he was very he was very agreeable and he said he had he has a problem was granite street people flying down there long yeah so you've got a short street you've got the montessori school and you've got through there but what it is is they try to avoid the convent and so they they cut through leonard street go all the way out to go cassatt some go left and take maple street up over the hill and back down a mechanic some go right and take pleasant street up over the hill and back down to mechanic and they stay out of the common and that's that's their trick and there's a lot of trailer truck traffic on the street past the railroad tracks it's a it's all residential  commercial site down there so my idea was to put those signs right at the railroad tracks and just try to keep the trucks on the and off mechanic street and forced the trucks to go through the common because whether you like  not the common is what it is it's not a hard place to drive it just has peak times yeah the peak hours you get it and the plenty board has some ideas in the future about doing some  channelization up there that that might help i don't know but roundabouts are designed to do that they're designed to attenuate speed but move the traffic and and the trucks are happy when they get they have to slow down for stuff like that on that street too i live there when we first moved to town when my wife actually grew up online it's very it's not just the trucks coming through there it's the same exact thing for cars so yeah we live there specimen pipe and not not to has it and i think we've got to get these roads done while we can so is this something you're just letting us know about yeah i mean i won't have pavement on there until the end of the summer and we're going to do a new sidewalk and change the grading a little bit along the sides of the road the sidewalk it's a concrete not falling apart and i don't want people stumbling on the sidewalk and then you know that bec liability for the town so the road is going to be in that condition is until the end of the summer as soon as i get there well we don't control it contractors j p keating comes in tomorrow and says we're in a pave the road great get going because we're ready for it but i can't i can't make them come in and pay for you know they know that it's on their list their work and seven days a week and at night on state highways right now so you know it's hard to get them off the state highway out quick turn right but they got to be yeah they get that that they'll probably take a week to command and i'm going to replace the signs that are there now on the same post but then i'm going to add  four more in the direction of one forty and three more coming back right so they'll just be spaced out a little over a thousand feet in those thirty miles an hour  completed if you can tell me when the gas company is going to put my guess and then i can tell you i'll finish it i mean they've been they've been dilly dallying with it for a month but everything else has done exactly what she's done to it when the when the warning came of my cell phone tonight on the tornado the girls are working on the building and the old building is a block building and they're notoriously brittle and you know tornado so i went down there and i said and it was really bad when i went down and i got out going up stairs with the girls and i said let's go in the basement of the new building if you get a chance you can stop by for like you know take in the build it is that is for a m news i thank you roger i'm hoping big dance your question i'm hoping july first but if the gas company cooperates we might be able to make it but if they don't it'll be the first and vote for the fire contract or just very quickly this this contract is for you three times and it's included in your signature packet going to it's not in these packets because this board has seen it and executive sessions our presentation and then time leading voted it so what it really is is there are multiple versions of memorandum for agreement and side letters and salary schedules and fire department requested when we sat down to negotiate that we consolidate the documents so we've done that over the last couple of months we've had it run through the union and through randy staffs of the accounting people have looked at it to make sure that it's in agreement with what they use and also works with our eunice and marcia has been great at helping us coordinate that so on all of the changes have been incorporated is going to be in your packet tonight this two originals one is going to go to fire you no one will stay with the board of selectmen and all of the changes in the new organizational structure as you recall will be implemented on july so on got going to be in the past and then  driving factor of this policy is to ensure that in all in our workplace in the town of foxborough all employees are treated with dignity and respect on it in all employment practices and employment programs  cover all employees seasonal entire board members committee members so we are going to include this in the board member packets this has been included in the recreation seasonal manual all of our new employees  and there will be a memo that goes to all employees with a cover sheet and we're going to be announcing the training that goes along so there will be a mandatory training for employees on we engage he's an attorney former town administrator and has an h r consulting and training background he'll be doing training in july and august from the boys so this policy will be in full foresman you cover all of our employees also going to film the training so for some of the departments that have a little trouble getting to for example the fire department with four groups on you know it's hard to train them to go and shift because they're going out on calls all the time so what we do review it give it the approval and then the actual document get signed by the time and remember my coverage just come through this where we were told that it's dangerous to live without a p or i want through this number of times it is accurate it is not florida that we worked hard to out to incorporate the good things in the old policy and then keep this in compliance with some you know policy as i read it i understand the process for filing a complaint and then they also say that i understand and i'm i understand the policy the policy and i agree that i am least four of our meetings we've consulted with randy on the actual implementation of this process because it's it's going to be different last week we met with newness to actually that's our payroll company to actually create the tables to attach to employees  so what this does this vacation policy is that it addresses some of the drawbacks we had our new employees for example under the by law we hire a new employee their vacation doesn't kick in for at least a year and in this  you know in a recruitment process that is really very very difficult for example now right now at the library director john posted we're asking for someone with at least five years experience most directors are going to come to us with four weeks vacation and you know want to do negotiate that they would under this policy depending on what month we hire them say we hired them in october they might have to wait fifteen months before they can take a vacation under the the way the policy works because an employee earns it in one year and takes it in the next so this policy what we're trying to do is allow for greater flexibility to have employees accrue in real time so every month you get a vacation a lot of and then it kruse we have a chart you know based on if you were to we can play three we can play four we can employ for employees who currently are existing and have our  invocation last year and expecting the allotment this july one they're going to start accruing under the new policy and still have their home with built in to address the transition we have said that he plays can use twenty five percent of their liability because if these people were to leave they were allowed that much vacation anyway even during the provisional period that the first six months of they decided the way i read it you can take the five days a month from after you're hired  going to you know based on discussion here and approval we're going to send a memo clearly explaining it showing in their own personal situation and how it impacts it but really be you know it's important to note that they're going to get on full credit for the vacation they aren't in the previous year this new accruals starts july one we have a way to we dress the transition year and down it does help us as a recruitment tool for new employees that they can accrue time and take it in real time  and it does give our current employees more flexibility and in case you're wondering who those ten employees are those would be d p w director the deputy fire chief the library director the police chief the two police lieutenants the treasurer collector right posted the library the library director has announced his retirement worked with the trustees to create a process and the job was posted on jan seventeenth that closes on july fifteenth and we're looking for a qualified library director with at least five years experience and it's on our website it's on the math libraries website we've also posted in a couple of other sites no third one from foxboro fire i make a motion movie except the mobile lighting generator plant from the me my grand donation valued at ten thousand two hundred forty seven dollars and seventy am package but i wanted to bring attention to a couple items in here on him safety yes and with the deadline they've given us thirty days to address all this all three of those are actually be worked on by when this came out that was when there was some incredible store and every dam in every area was flooded right and then it was highlighted and then it just disappeared after that and often everybody's radar so good can we have where this dates and who's or anything else
