Galligan - would like the Council and Board of Ed to sit down and review the capital projects. Need to have a better understanding., Committee members feel system has not gone the propert way - report should be looked at by Council and if they do nt like shoudl go ak to the Caitla Proje
Recessed 7:30 and reconved at 7:33 p.m
Yagaloff - there is a lot of critisium toward the Council. If the Counicl has public meeting people can ome in and discuss issues with teh Town Council. The Caitla Projects has to work with the funds that are given to them.
Galligan - want to set up policy. This will make people understand economic conditions. Would like everyone to understand roles.
Delnicki - Town Council did nothing that 26,000 people in this town had to do. Town Council looked at Town budget and tried to figure a good budget under tough economic times. In past a lot has gone through that has not been looked at closely but this year was tough economic times and had to be looked at more closely. hope can craft policy that will cover all issues but do not think that can happen.
Havens - charge of the capital projects committee has to be changed. there is a lot of time taken working on the capital projects from the Committee side. if we don't change the make up of the charter will have the same problem next year. Capital projects is the last item that is decided upon during the budget.
Anwar - Committee feels frustration when the Town Council cuts their proposal. The good thing to have is multiple Joint Work Session and shows us what level of work goes into Capitla Project Committees decisions. Set priorities. keep communication level strong. The Committee has done a great job but the times are tough and unfortunately changes and priorities needed changes.
Bazzano - have to find out what residents priorities are. Lets start prioritizing everything not just the Capital Projects.
Galligan - need to know what the Council's priorities are. Should have a work session together.
Bazzano - get the study back out and review that.
Pelkey - one of the things that capital projects looks at is set priorities from lettrs that come to them and try to look at the items in terms of long term. Get from Town and Boared what they feel are priorities. AT 600,000 there are many jobs that will not get done. as a town we need to figure out what the main objective is to build up a fund. now we have a 14 year old budget. As a Council have to take different approach on these items and let the residents decide wht projects should be done. Some how we have to get some of these projects done. Things are just going to get more expensive and have to figure out how to approach this. some how we have to get money into the funds. This is a discussion for the fall time. need way to get these projects done.
