From the minutes
“Ms. Pine moved that they move forward with the original charge of the MIPC with one revision to change the impact from $30K to $50K. Mr. Degen seconded the motion. Ms. Manugian said she was up in the air. She said she was comfortable if the Chair of the Finance Committee was ensuring them that they could get a better handle on the capital needs, to allow them a year or two to do that. Mr. Degen said that they had a goal to establish this committee adding that they voted unanimously to make this a goal, that they voted 5-0 to make this a committee, and because of some pushback from the Finance Committee they needed to remember they were the elected officials of the Town. He said that the Finance Committee were advisory to them and not the policy setters. Mr. Giger said that this initiative sat on their to do list for months and all of a sudden it became a crisis and needed to happen right away. Roll Call: Giger-nay; Degen-aye; Pine-aye; Reilly-nay; Manugian-nay. The motion was defeated by a 2-3 vote..” (Motion: Pine, second: Degen)
