Okay. And then on page five with regards to the presentation, um, which we do have the public hearing today. Um, the second bullet about the two generators are needed. Building B, which holds 20 units. Yep.
All right. The generator in this building will allow for the continued running of Let's put the elevator in there because that Oh, there's ele Okay. Yeah. Because that will help the 10 units that are on the second floor. Okay.
All right. Please. I can do that. All right. Anybody have anything else with regards to the minutes? Nope. Okay. So, can I hear a motion to accept
the minutes as amended, please? So, move. All right. Colleen makes Colleen makes the first motion and Julie makes the second. Roll call. Jess, hi. Julie, yes. Barry, yes.
Kevin, yes. Colleen, hi. And the chair says I. Okay. um correspondence and invoices. The only correspondence was there was a
um well, let's see. Never mind. I'm going to put that to committee reports. Um there really wasn't any additional correspondence. So, with that, if there's nothing else that anybody else has, I'd like to go
ahead and open the public hearing. I know I always ask this. I really don't need a motion to open up the public hearing. Right, Jess? Right. Right. Okay. I just need to read it. You declare it.
I I I declare that we open the public hearing and let me read the notice um regarding the Air Housing Authority funding request for generators. Notice is hereby given in accordance with Mass
General Law Chapter 44B, Community Preservation, that the Air Community Preservation Committee will hold a public hearing on Wednesday, October 1st at 7 p.m. The purpose of this meeting will be to review the
funding application from the air housing authority for CPA funds to help support the cost of purchasing and installing generators for buildings B and C at 18 Pond Street. All residents, members of the general public, and any person
interested in wishing to be heard for or yeah, wishing to be heard for the application request may call 978-7728220 extension 100 during business hours prior to the meeting for Zoom meeting information. Community Preservation
Committee, Janet Pradas, the chair. And we do have Ken Martin, who is the owner of uh his block and the second block of Ken Martin um present with us to go ahead and um tell us a little more
information. Ken, thank you very much for um making time. We do appreciate it. Go for it. Well, thank you everybody. I appreciate it. Um, as you know, I've been around a long time. Um, and one of the most
important things that has happened for senior housing, uh, in the last few years was the opportunity to putting generators. We were able to put generators at Pleasant Street School through CPC funding. Um, and we were
able to get a state grant for our 34 units, three-story building at 18 Pawn Street, referred to as building A. Um, that has made a huge difference
for the residents who live in these buildings. We have disabled and seniors living in these buildings. at Pleasant Street, it's strictly elderly people and we've had some very senior elderly, shall we say, uh at Pleasant Street
School and a number of occasions when the power went out, um it has been lifesaving because we have people who are on ventilators, we have people who are on dialysis machines, and the other
issue that we've had is that when there's an emergency um the fire department's not walking down four flights of stairs. So, we've seen the real benefit at Pleasant Street School and also in A building. In A building, what happens?
Because our senior site, we have three buildings, A, B, and C. Um where A has the generator. When power does go out, we do have some of the resins of the other two buildings going to bunker in
in a building to recharge their phones or they go with their oxygen and whatnot. So, uh we have attempted to get some additional state funding um and we have not been successful. Um
but we have an opportunity here of BB building has 20 units as Janet has referred to. Uh it's a twostory building. So, the key components of any time that the power goes out, especially for the seniors in the winter time, is
the heat because we all know as we as we age, um, we like to keep that thermostat up because we're cold and I happen to be a senior so I can relate to that. um the elevator being a key as well as
their air conditioners which we do not have central air condition in the building but we have window ACs and we have people who run those ACs because of their breathing problems and whatnot.
So there is a real need in the in the building uh for that for BB building for C building. Sea building consists of our office space but most importantly we have a sevenperson congregate. That sevenerson congregate is shared
living where seven individuals have a bedroom and a half bath and then they share the kitchen, living space, uh sitting rooms, TV rooms. um they are mostly frail elderly because they cannot
live independently in either a building, B building or Pleasant Street School. So they have support services that allow them to live somewhat some somewhat independent with other people around to to assist them. And of course then they have homemakers come that come in,
nurses that come in and and whatnot. This building also for the last 40 40 years has housed the council on aging in the law level of the building. We have a recreation room in also in the law level
and during the council on aging as because as you are very much aware uh council on aging has grown and their space is limited. So during the day they use our big recreation room to run things uh for the seniors.
We looked at this that not only would we be able to keep the senior center open if we lost power for a couple of days or something of that nature. It could also be an opportunity for towns people, it it could be a location. I know we've used schools. Um but one of the biggest
problems that we have when there's an outage, we have seniors that refuse to leave their units because they're petrified. Um, and the last time that we had an outage, um, the police department and and the fire department went unit to
unit try to convince people to go. Um, and it was reluctantly some go, some did go, but there were a number of seniors that were not willing to leave their homes. Um so if we are successful
utilizing CPC funds to provide generated for these two buildings, it will make a real life difference for the seniors who live here and future seniors who uh would reside in these two buildings. All right. Um,
and just clarify for the minutes, this is an ask of $230,000, correct? Viewers. Yes. And that would be for two generators. Yes. So, does that mean like each generator
is what 150? Um, it'll be sized accordingly to the building. Okay. That's what I thought. Does that include installation? Yes. And
this this is going on some some rough estimates, but it also u based on what happened at Pleasant Street School. And at Pleasant Street School, we asked for a little bit more money. Um but we ended up returning money back to C CPC.
Correct. So if you want to extend it another 20 grand, that's fine. We can always um return the money if if we don't use it. Well, what do you need, Ken? Well, we we think we think it's we think
we can do it for $230,000 as long as there's nothing unforeseen um underground because when these buildings were built back in 81 and part of 82
um all the underground wiring was direct burial. it was not in conduit like it's required code today. So we're not we're just keeping our fingers crossed that we will be okay and that uh
we'll be able to mark the areas dig safe will be able to mark the areas. Um but it's like anything else like an old house when you start taking walls down you'll find things that you didn't foresee but we're hoping that's not the
case. All right. Um I I have in my mind um two two things. One, uh Beth wanted to make sure that if you know say um you know if
you've looked for other type of funding and you said that you tried for state but that has not been successful. Um, but if the community room downstairs can be used as a type of shelter area,
she thinks that there may be other type of grants with regards to um, a shelter. Um, I don't know whether or not that's sort of like lumped up with, you know, what the request was from state, you
know, to the state. Um, have you looked for any other additional funding? Uh, no. That's the only funding that we have looked at at this particular point. Okay. All right. I don't really want to talk about
shelter after the money that the state has spent on shelter in the last thing. That's the, you know, it's a very sensitive issue at all levels. even when the secretary was talking about that when he visited us, secretary of housing. Um because you know they went
through some tough times with that, right? I I probably shouldn't have used the word shelter. It it's more but that that's what it could be. It could be it's not a permanent shelter. It could be, you know, for a day or so that we could um allow people with the
Council on Aging, they could bless some of the seniors in the community uh to to that building, you know, where it's warm and it, you know, um and they can plug in their phones and, you know, because they don't always want to go to the school. And because it's a small site, you might have a better
opportunity to have some seniors uh willing to go to a smaller site. I know people are going to say, well, they're best, you know, at the school, but when we get to be uh the age of some of our residents, they're pretty set in their
ways and they they they're very cautious a lot of times. Um, and so we have to take that into consideration we do it. if they don't have to go far from their house even though that there's no power in their house, they'd be more reluctant,
you know, especially if it's something like an ice storm. You're right. Oh, yeah. Yeah, for sure about that. And it's like, oh, um, let me ask the the committee. Uh, I know we usually try to
have some sort of overage, you know, um, the request 230 Go 250. I see Jess saying yes. I think that makes sense.
Okay. Yeah, I agree with that. If he's if Ken, if you're not exactly sure that 230 would cover it, then I would definitely go the more because you, you know, you can't ask for more at the town at the town meeting. So,
well, thank you. I appreciate that. It's because you remember we're doing preliminary estimates, you know, because we really didn't have the money to hire an engineer to get specific amounts. Okay. Well, yeah. I mean, that just makes
sense. Why pay money to an engineer when we can add a bit to this and then if it's not used, it comes back to us. So, correct. And we have done that in two cases. Just so you know, we've done that in two cases. Um, we did that when we did the
elevators a number of years ago. We returned some funds and we did it at the Pleasant Street School because we know how important this funding is and we appreciate the town's people that have been very cooperative in in assisting,
you know, um, our seniors. Okay. And this has been done, I think Janet, Janet, you and I have had some conversations. I'm not sure how much you shared with the committee, but North Andover just did this recently, so this
is an acceptable funding source. And I think there's I don't know, is there another 19? There's 19 Yeah, 19 communities with 22 units. So, so more, you know, there's um
communities that have got more than one air conditioning, I mean, um generator. So yeah, we spoke about that last meeting. Um so it is a you know an approved use um through
Jan have you spoken to town council that that would be uh a valid use for CPC funds. Um I haven't spoken but I've spoken with Robert and Robert has taken it up with town council. Okay. Okay. So yes.
Yep. We're we're covered. All right. Um, is I don't see anybody from the public. I'm just looking. All right. Um, is there anything from the committee? Uh, any other questions
or concerns? No. All right. Nope. Okay. So, can I get a motion to move this to as a warrant to town meeting for the request of $250,000 for the two generators for air housing
buildings B and C? So moved. I Barry makes a motion. Second. I Colleen seconds. Roll call. Jess. Hi, Julie. Yes. Barry, hi.
Very good from Hawaii. Colleen, hi. Kevin, yes. All right. And the chair says I as well. I need buckos. Okay. So, it's unanimous. Uh, Ken, it will be going to town meeting October 27th. Um, I will go
ahead and change the draft warrant that I generated for Robert um to mark it as 250,000 and it will probably come out of um undesated reserve because we only have 230
um in community housing. So, well, thank you. I'd like to thank the committee. I'm sure that the seniors are going to be thrilled when I report to them that the committee unanimously supports this and I'm sure you'll see
some of those residents at town meeting to express their thank you and vote the approval. So, thank you very much. Excellent. You're welcome. All right. Okay. So, with that being done, I'd like to go ahead and get a
request to close the public hearing. I Jess made the motion. Julie seconded. I got to do roll call. Jess I. Julie. Yes. Barry. Hi. Colleen. I. Kevin. Hi. And the chair says I. All right. So, the
public hearing is now closed. All right. Ken, thank you so much. All right. Thank you everybody. Have a good evening. Close both windows and go Red Sox. You got it. All right. Thanks.
Okay. Next on the agenda is the review of the warrant articles. I sent them to you um earlier today, so I apologize. I was waiting to hear back from Robert because um I wrote down that
these are going to come from the undesated reserve category which really is the combination of undesated and budgetary reserve. So I haven't really heard back from him.
But again, these are drafts. We send them to Robert. Robert sends them to town council. Town council still does their stuff. And what you see may not be exactly printed in the warrant, but um
the first article is for Demonstr affordable housing support to see if the town will vote to transfer from community preservation fund undesated reserve category the sum of 400,000 to support the creation of affordable housing at the Devon Crest Apartments
located at 35 Littleton Road or take any action thereon or relation there too. And the explanatory note is this article would authorize 400,000 from the CPA and designated reserve category to support the reducing
of the affordability of the 80% AMI area median income to a 60% AMI, thus helping lower income families with their monthly rental costs. The Community Preservation Committee held a public hearing on September 17th, 2025. information is
available on the community preservation website. Straight to the point. Um, does anybody have any concerns of what was written? No. No, I do not. I just had one question and maybe this
will just come up at town meeting and doesn't need to be said. Do we need to say how many units this is going to fund bringing down from 80 to 60 or should we say to bring
additional units from 80 to 60 because the way it's written it sounds like it's just a single unit and I think with what we're giving it should be more than a single unit. Correct. And it should be okay.
So, I don't I don't know if there's a better way to word it or maybe it's just fine because they'll get the information. You know, if they want more information, it can be Yeah. But the the thing that I'm finding out is with these warrant articles, you
always look back to past ones for, okay, what did this really say that it was going to do? All right. So, you're right. I I think we do need because I think what what did um
Jess maybe you've got it off the top of your head because I I don't have my print off of uh the minutes. Wasn't it uh two to three units? Uh, I thought it was at least three.
Um, because I think we're Let me I think for the housing trust our 170 we wrote it as one to two. Two, correct? So, this one's got to be
two to three. I don't think it's three. I don't think it's 3 to four. I don't think it is either. I think it's two to three because then that would give us five but maybe I don't know why six is coming into my head. Well, there was the question of uh
fractions correct which is not something that can be resolved at this particular moment. Um, so I would just, you know, uh, I don't know, say maybe two to three
or more. Let's see. Um, two to three at least. Yeah. Yeah. Um, the presentation that I was working with Connie on, it says two to three units. Yeah.
All right. So, I think maybe Do you think we I I think it should be in the explanatory note where it's reducing the affordability of two to three 80% AMI units.
Yeah. Yeah. I think definitely the explanatory note is where it should be just so it's people are clear that this is there'll be a few units that okay so then this article would authorize 400,000 from the CPA and
designated reserve category to support reducing the affordability of two to three 80% AMI units to a 60% AMI okay yeah be fine excellent Colleen, thank you very much. That was a
good catch. Okay. Can I get a motion to accept um the uh warrant article to send it to Robert with that correction?
So moved. Okay. Barry first. Colleen second. Jess. Hi. Julie. Yes. Barry. Hi, Colleen. I Kevin, yes. And the chair says I. All right.
Awesome. Okay. The second is Community Preservation Fund Air Housing Authority request for generators at 18 Bond Street to see if the town will vote to transfer from community preservation fund undesated reserve category for the sum
of 22,000 right 250,000 to support the purchase and installation of two separate generators for building BNC at the air housing authority 18 pound street. The explanatory note, I just love saying
that word. I'm sorry. Um, this article would authorize $250,000 from CPA on designated reserve category to support the purchase and installation for two separate generators at buildings B and C at the housing authorities
location at 18 Palm Street. The community preservation committee held a public hearing on October 1st. information available on the community preservation website. Straight to the point. Yep. Yep. Okay. Can I get a motion to accept it?
I'll make a motion to accept the warrant article for 250,000. Excellent. Can I get a second? Seconded. I Colleen first. Julie second. Jess, Julie, yes.
Barry, hi. Colleen, I Kevin I. And the chair says I. All right. So, I will send these to Robert tonight and I will send you guys a copy of it. Um
because I will remove the word draft and uh what was that? And you have the two locations to change 230 230,000 to 250. Okay. Correct. Yeah. Got to do the two to three and then the 230 to 250. So, got
those. I will change those. All right. So, at least you guys see that I I changed it. All right. Public comment. Like I said, I don't see anybody else here. Can I can I insert a quick question that I had from a public person? Oh, yeah.
As a question for the group. I never heard back from Chase, so I I just want to toss it out there in case we could proceed for spring. Is that okay? Yeah. Um, I had a couple people, but one person in particular, really get concerned that
there's no longer an awning on the dog park. Um, I'm looking at my notes. Sorry. Um, and so I did a little digging just to try to figure out on my own cuz I know it gets dicey, right, when we're talking about
rehabbing or restoring, fixing something. Um, but so when I read through how the application came through to us, the dog park was created with recreation funds. Um, and when I follow the CPA chart, the chart does say yes to
rehabbing and restoring. So, is that something we can Oh, sorry. It says yes for rehabing, restoring it, but it says no to supporting funds. Um,
I think this I think this would be restoring because it I don't think it got someone else built it. Correct. I think so, but it was in the original application as far as what we were going to be funding.
Yeah. Originally, right? Well, I I thought the town uh if I remember correctly, got a grant from someone to build that dog park
with some CPA support which helped to secure that grant, but yeah, most of it was. Yeah. Yeah. So, that's why, you know, we can, you know, we've got some leverage there, Barry. Um, but do we also maintain it? Oh, no. No,
it's not really restoring it if it doesn't have Did it have an awning? I don't remember. Did it have an awning before? An awning was put in at some point and the awning is no longer there and it is sadly missed. But that's not re is it restoring or
replacing? Yeah, splitting. Are we splitting hairs? Replacing would be sort of maintenance. But um if the awning is something that's going to be vulnerable to
weather damage, um would something like more of a a wooden structure that provides its own cover might be something more permanent and that maybe we could fund that because that's different. Well, then you'd have to make sure what
what kind of structure you were talking about and will that need painting or upkeep or or shingles or you know, I'm I'm not saying it can't be done. I just, you know, I I don't think we want to be repairing it every every two, three, four, five
years. Yeah. Quick question, Jess. Um, with regards to the community garden. All right. That gazebo was built by the scouts, right? Either Scouts or Mishoba Tech. I don't
We didn't have anything to do with that. Yeah. Yeah. No, I know. um cuz that wasn't part of the request while you know the awning was part of the request in the beginning and I don't know why it didn't get
installed in the beginning. It was installed apparently. Oh no no but somebody it you know somebody else I think a private citizen built it right Julie is that I'm that's what I'm hearing. I couldn't find any documentation to know one way
or the other. Building the dog park, you mean? Or the the awning part? The awning. Oh, okay. Just the awning. All right. I I I think, you know, this is something we can probably, you know, push a little bit um and find out a little bit more for you,
Julie. Um, and also too, I know that, um, I've spoken a little bit to Dan, um, our DPW director, and let's see what else, because I know he was looking for some other additional items as well. So,
I'll put that on my to-do. Okay. Sorry. No, that's okay. Yeah, because that was put in uh when Mark Wel was here, I believe. Yeah. Yep. PWC. I don't even remember how many years that was. So,
you've got the application there, right, Julie? I don't have that wasn't in my notes to Chase. I did have it at one point. Okay. But I would say it's at least six years. I could tell you in a second. Um.
All right. And I can also find out from town council, too. Yeah, I have it somewhere. Open CPC projects. Uh, the dog park. I'm scrolling.
I'm still scrolling. Uh, well, don't don't worry. Okay. Um, I should have had it here. That's all right. Don't don't worry. All right. Like I say, um, I'll I'll talk to
Dan. This is all going to happen after town meeting. Oh, yeah. No, I just thought I'd start the conversation early so we had some time to get people moving if that's all right. That sounds good. And just, you know, with regards to public comment, again, if anybody's watching
this on YouTube, on Apac um YouTube channel, uh just give a holler over to Carly if you've got questions and Carly Antineellis will go ahead and get in touch with uh the CPC, the committee itself, um and we will get an answer
back to you. So, that'd be great. All right, I'm moving right along um with committee reports. I'm just going to if I could go first with regards to correspondence and in and invoices with regards to the correspondence. I had a
meeting with a gentleman I think I told you last time about 63 Main Street, the um asphalt parking lot that's right next to the barber shop. Uh the gentleman is interested in creating a fourstory unit
because it's part of formbbased code downtown area that they can do a fourstory. First floor will be commercial. The other three floors would be apartments. He was looking to do 100% um affordable apartments approximately
10 to 11 apartments. in talking with Alicia who deals with Alicia Herszy who is the um um oh she was uh right community development office um manager she um she
recommends not doing all 100% and this does make sense is that if you have an individual who is um say at that 80% mark and all of a sudden they earn turn over that 80%
um within a year they do have to find new housing just because they've gone ahead and are able to you know better themselves. But if they have um 5050 say 50% affordable and 50% market rate they
could move then to the market rate and not have to be evicted and then one of the other ones can turn into the affordable unit. So, I never really thought about it that way, but it does make sense instead of having somebody,
you know, move out, you have um the flexibility. So, they're thinking about making approximately five units um affordable and they're looking at the different rates of affordability. So, I thought
that that was um pretty nice. It was a it was a preliminary meeting. again they're they're just you know touching base but they are you know working with Dave Barry across the street for parking um and he's a air resident he's a vet um
he's thinking Delmare is his name he's thinking of um having some of the apartments be first access for veterans um so I think I think this is a real good thing for downtown especially in that area because I know a lot of People
want to see more affordable housing not only in the community, but put the uh units in a downtown area so that it's part of the MBTA as well as it's close to Devon's, you know, things like that. Um, so we'll keep our fingers crossed
that everything goes goes well. Um, and that was I I went as being on the affordable housing committee as well as CPC. So, um that is part of my committee
report. We didn't have a meeting for um housing authority. We didn't have a quorum. So, but they did have a picnic and everybody loved the picnic. All right. Okay. Um next one. Uh Jess, anything for uh I haven't been to commission this
month this last month because of knee replacement. All right. Doesn't seem like there's that much happening right now. So excellent. Uh Julie, um we have had actually Creative Materials
on Willow Road is um looking to expand their property. So we had a sitewalk and have been working with them. Um and the Lincoln Hills project continues. All right. I know that uh the developer
uh Lincoln development Janet Fields um has come to the affordable housing committee and asked um if we you know what type of housing would we like and one of them will be um a one of the
units in the duplex then a single family house. So we have she's gather it's 10%. So there's three units that we can have and the committee's swaying towards a third unit which would be the single
family as well as making those one of those units um ADA compliant and uh we can try to find additional funds for it to be ADA compliant that it's on a more level section of the development and
everything. So they are trying to work with the community to get something that again the community needs. So was that one unit in a duplex and then two single family units, one of which would be ADA compliant. Correct.
That's what we've been talking to them about. Got it. Okay. All right. Um Barry, uh we're just getting ready for the uh Newton Street. um Saturday. So we've got
a a booth there if you want to call it or easy up um and just discussing about not discussing but trying to put out literature about what we do and we still would like to try to get people interested in forming a historical
society. I mean we have not had one for a lot of years and it's it it's it's really needed. I mean we I know air is small but so isn't Shirley and they have a historical society but
it's it we're no different than anybody else. It's difficult to get volunteers. So well we were talking Yeah. Um No, go ahead. Kevin and Julie and I were talking to this one woman and I think she's got um historical um as her one of her
passions. So hopefully they come and they can stop by your booth. Um because we did tell them about the Newton Street Festival. So I've even gone so far as I' I've spoke to Mayor Maserella from Lster because I seem to put out a lot of different
things every week. And I said, how do you get people to volunteer? I said, you know, you have a lot of He says, I just start by say, geez, can you give me an hour or can you give me an hour and a half? And he said they come and they end
up staying longer. And that's that was his suggestion anyway. So, all right. I don't know if it would work here or not. Just Well, give it a try. Yeah. All right. Um going to move on. Colleen,
I don't have much to report. Our last two meetings were all about the Devon Crest Tenants Association funding request which we approved. Um, we are did not meet this month or we're not meeting till the end of October. So,
nothing else new. All right, Kevin. Uh, well, I know uh you've been talking with Sarah a lot lately, so uh you you two probably covered almost everything. I know that we're seeing if we can get
CPC funding for the fencing uh and lights and I know we couldn't do a covering over a new uh we need new batting cages and the batting cages are are really a mess but I don't I I don't I think you talked about that with her
also. I don't think that's possible. Um could I just say is uh fencing and lights that's at Peron Park? Yeah. Okay. the uh because the back stop is uh let's just say the back stop isn't
facing the right direction um and it needs to be corrected uh no over the next few years. So it's not an immediate concern. That's that that's what we've been talking about lately. So, but nothing to report really honestly.
And really 71 Sandy Pond Road um that working group, you know, just trying to come up with ideas that happened from the sharet that people gave feedback. So, I thought that was a pretty good um update on that. So, all right. And I
think that's it. Um I don't have anything else on the agenda. So, wait a minute. I if I may, I have one more thing. Uh we're also or I'm working with the cemetery commission uh as the historical
uh commission's uh designate, I guess. And then we're looking at restoring the howitzer at at uh at the cemetery. So, and I'm working with Dan Dan Vans working as well. So,
right restoring the what? uh the howitzer the Civil War howitzer at uh Woodlon. Okay. And also too, Dan has been in touch with me because of it being a
historic site in um air, it would be available, you know, CPA funds would be available to help restore some of the items there at the cemetery. And I did do some research on the coalition site. There have been multiple cemeteries that
are historic that have received uh CPA funding to help restore the historic and I don't think that um the chairperson um Sam uh Goodwin was
aware that it was there and then once he was made aware he wasn't aware that they're also um GA um Grand Army of the Republic soldiers that are buried there right around the uh
the uh howitzer as well. So I'm sorry I just wanted to throw that in. Excellent. That's good. Okay. Um if there's nothing else I think we can entertain a motion to adjurnn.
So moved. All right. Barry makes the motion to adjurnn. Do I get a second? Second. Hi. All right. And all in favor go I I I
