Good afternoon. I'm [clears throat] now going to call the Wednesday, June 10th, 20 26 North Attleboro Commission to order. Good afternoon and welcome. I'm now going to read the executive order on
remote participation. On March 26th, 2025, Governor Healey signed into law House Bill 62. An act relative to extending certain provisions
certain COVID-19 measures adopted during the state of emergency, which includes a 2-year extension of the option for public bodies to hold remote meetings by suspending certain provisions of the open meeting law, Mass General Law Chapter 30A, Sections 18 to
25. That action was effective immediately, extending the current option for remote meetings through June 30th, 2027. We're here today, live and remote,
for our regular weekly meeting. I'm going to call the roll. Commissioner Stady? >> I'm present, sir. >> Commissioner Collins? >> Present. >> Chair Commissioner Shea is present. If you'll all join me in saluting the flag.
Please rise. >> I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. >> Thank you very much. Welcome to all.
You call the roll. We have a full quorum. Number three on your agenda, gentlemen, is our first item. >> Wait. >> Minutes of the May 13th, 2026 open meeting. Um >> This is no minutes today.
>> Sorry, yeah. >> I move to be postponed approval to next week. >> On the on the postponed motion made the second in favor. >> I. >> Okay, number two, appointments. >> Thank you. >> We have the pleasure today of having our
chair of the advisory board Eric Beckerman from the town of A Avon. He had a discuss recent Norfolk County advisory board meeting and a joint communication that we've been working
on. So, welcome Eric. Good afternoon and nice to see you and I know that we say this at every advisory board meeting, but we can't thank you enough for your service, particularly having been chair and chair of the advisory board
financial committee. So, you've been very busy the last couple of years and we appreciate it. Um Eric, do you want to talk about it briefly what this is about and then we'll go to the next one. >> Sure. Good afternoon commissioners. As you said, welcoming chair of
advisory board Eric Beckerman in. Uh A few weeks ago, registered these uh released a letter to Norfolk County residents that caught the attention of the advisory board members. Um the advisory board um chairman contacted
the office to schedule uh help schedule an upcoming pop-up meeting out of cycle. Um that meeting was held uh last Wednesday. Um the chair and the vice chair, who I think might be on the call, um they saw a majority board uh dialogue
that I think lasted about an hour and a half ish. Good robust dialogue on one topic. So, um really he's got some information to share with you relative to what their agenda was like in their discussion. >> Thank you. >> Yep. >> Eric, the floor is yours.
>> Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and Commissioners, it's good to be here. Um thank you for giving me some time today to to discuss this. I'm like like the director said, we um we had some questions from actually from people in the public asking me about
this letter that that they saw um from the register. Uh I hadn't seen it yet. It was posted apparently it was not sent to the appointing authorities, it was sent to the media. Um and from what I gather, it was published by the Franklin Observer and
the Quincy Sun. I don't know if it hit any other publications or not, but I had a couple of people ask me about it. Um and I assured them that the that, you know, what the Commissioners and what the Advisory Board is doing is is perfectly in line with keeping um
the residents informed as best as we can, but also that we're we're the stewards of the of the county, basically. We're looking over the finances, that's our job. Our job is to be an advisory board. Um for all intents and purposes and to kind of
make it a little simpler to understand, the way I explain it to people is that we're the we're the finance committee of the county. Which essentially that's what we That's what our our charter is through mass general law. So, when I saw this letter, um you know, I've been on this committee now for
almost 9 years, so I'm going on my 10th year. We're going on That's crazy. >> I don't know when you first started, but you were on it, too. >> I I started the week after I got selected on the select board. >> Yeah. >> I got kind of forced into this. >> We save them, and we save them from the rain, you know? >> So, um so I got into this committee, and
you know, I've been very proud to be a member of this committee all along. Um as you know, there's been a lot of um a lot of legal issues that have come up in the last few years, um mainly with the register. And um the Advisory Board has pretty
much stayed silent up to this point. Um when I saw this letter, and I saw that that it was that um the intention what what it seemed like the intention was to kind of drag the advisory board into the entire issue stating that we
will all lose money in the funds, not just the commissioners, but also the advisory board. Um obviously I took offense to that. Um, so I asked the director just to set up the meeting of the advisory board on top of the our regular scheduled meeting wasn't until next uh until September, I
believe. So I convened a meeting. Um, I was not I was not sure how many people I would get. It turns out we had a a a a a two-third we had more than a two-thirds majority. So we had a lot of people show up. Um, as you gentlemen know, most of the
members of the advisory board have been there for many many many years. A lot more years than I have. So um we discussed the letter that was sent out by the registrar. Um, and the the intention of the meeting was to see if there was a consensus to
respond. Now, we have some members who believe that this is a political issue between the commissioners and the and the registrar and really shouldn't be involved with the advisory board at all. I I kind of disagree with that myself. Um, and I stated this during our meeting
as well is that once the advisory board was named as a defendant and subpoenas were sent to each of us individually, >> [clears throat] >> we were basically dragged into the the whole issue. So because of that we stayed we've stayed silent um because we don't know you know, anytime we get any
communication from the registrar, the first thing we have to do is go to legal and say is this something we should respond to. In this situation, um I thought this was inflammatory enough for us to um get together and say okay,
what's the general consensus, should we respond? That was that was really the main question. The um the vote at the end of the meeting, there was some dissension, there was some It wasn't a unanimous vote. It was close to unanimous, I'll say that. We had I think a 75%
quorum. I think there was only like 3% that were dissent. There was some different matters of opinion. One was that the letter shouldn't come from the emergency from the advisory board, it should come from the commissioners with the advisory
board as a like a co-signer. Other people think that there were There was one person in particular who thinks that we maybe shouldn't respond at all because it's political. And again, I disagree with that and the advisory board took a vote to respond.
So, with the help of the director, we drafted a a letter. We sent that letter to all of the number of members of the advisory board asking for their comments by this Friday. So far, we've had no comments as far as a change to the letter. We've had
comments, but not in context of the letter. So, the advisory board members will have a chance by this Friday to send in any comments they may have or changes they may have. And then at that point, I'll work with the director to come up with a final version. We'll have
to reconvene the advisory board to approve that letter before anything any can go forward from there. So, I guess my my my point today >> And the members know that. >> And the members Yeah, the members know that as well. So, my point today was really to to kind of throw it out there
that, you know, we do have some members of our community that believe the letter should come from the commissioners. And then co-signed by us. The draft we have, I think is pretty bipartisan. I don't think there's any I don't know if that's the right word, but it's it's a combined
letter. It looks It does feel It does coming from both sides, from the commissioner and the advisory board. The The on it would be Chain and Shay, myself, and the director. Um So, I guess my my my point for coming here today was was to get your support
and and and just so you understand um where the advisory board is going with this. It's just been a long time coming. There's a lot of questions to um to the finances, you know, there's a lot of information in the letter from the
registrar that was dated May 21st that I believe is um Well, I'll I'll say misleading. I won't say it's false um because if you don't know the whole story, it's hard to comment. So, when somebody throws it throws something out there, but you don't but it's out of context,
there's no way to to defend it. So, this letter that we're proposing hits on the individual points that the registrar tried to make and provides a response. Now, one thing I just want to make clear is that this is not going to the public. This The the vote was to send this to
the appointing authorities, not to the general public. So, we're not going out we're not getting into a mudslinging fest with anybody. We want to make it clear to our 28 communities that the need um management of the fund of the funds
that they're providing is being handled properly. And that's why we decided to take this vote and and go with the appointing authorities only. Then the appointing authorities can do what it you know, if they want to if they want to disseminate that out to the public, that's perfectly fine with them.
Obviously, public document. Um But then that was kind of that was the vote of of the board. We We had no intention of actually going out to the general public. You know, it's not like we would have called up the Patriot Ledger and say, "You need to publish this." We're staying away from that. Um
The the the vote we took was to produce a letter, send it to the appointing authorities of all 28 towns, all 28 communities. So, with that, I mean I I I I don't really much else to say. I just um want to be clear that that, you know,
we're looking for obviously we're looking for your support, the commissioner's support, um to send out this letter um again to the appointing authorities to let them know that their their funds are being managed properly.
So, thank you, Mr. Chair. Um I will ask if you don't mind through you, Mr. Chair, if um the Vice Chair, Mr. Fitzjones is on is on. Fitz- Fitz- Patrick, I'm sorry. Rick, do you have any com- any further comments? >> Uh can you hear me? >> Yes. >> Can you hear me?
>> Yes. Yeah. >> Okay. Yeah, Eric, I think I think you capsulized it very well, very distinctly, I think. Again, you know, my my approach when I first read the letter was sort of similar to what Eric
uh what his reaction was. And my emphasis in the meeting when I spoke was that as Eric pointed out, you know, I I think it's important for the appointing authority, for the members of the advisory board, to be put on notice as to what
you know, what our reaction was to the letter. I actually had an opportunity to reach out. I I tried to get to to Mayor Koch of the city of Quincy. Unfortunately, he wasn't available, but I did speak to the visiting executive secretary
and explained to him in very quick summary form, you know, what what we were attempting to do, and he was on board 100%. Uh he he spoke for the mayor and that he he didn't see that the mayor would have any issue with us
uh reacting to um the register's comments in the Quincy Sun. Um and you know, and I think Eric kind of touched upon some of the reactions of individuals and there were very good points made by
the group in general. Not 100% but for the most part the comments and the concerns were were were were very very relative to the issue. You know, you know, are we getting into a situation here where we're putting ourselves in a
position of you know, being party to a lot of reaction from the register. I mean, I we can't say enough about you know, what the commissioners have endured, what the
the county director himself has endured. You know, I I I've spoken to John on a couple of occasions and to see what his personal reaction and I I I got to raise my hand to him you know, to the fact that he's you know, you know, he's been very stead-
steadfast in you know, in dealing with this issue. If it was me, I you know, I I don't know if I'd be so so calm about it but you know, that's credit to his personality and his experience. But no, I I think I think at
the end of the day the letter is a good letter. Um I there was one member of the board that um really had quite a bit of respect for John Cronin as a director and he really felt that if if John
Cronin was any part and parcel of any editor of the document that he would be fine with it. So, uh I I don't see anything more that that can be said but honestly, so respectfully thank you uh county commissioners for your time.
>> Thank you, Rick. Thank you, Rick. >> And if I may just add um just to to um kind of build on what um Rick said, the the faith we have in the county attorney director is paramount. I mean, we know he's doing a great job. Bill's doing a great job. You guys are doing a
great job. We don't have any issues with things that are going on. There are some people on the committee that have seemed to have a something in their broth. Um and I don't know if that's politically charged, if it's if it's legally charged, I don't know. But point
of the bottom line is is that um I would say probably 98% of the advisory board has complete faith in the director. Um as I do. So. And that's uh that's all I'll say. So, thank you, Mr. Chairman. >> Thank you, Eric. Okay.
Commissioners, any comments? This We're going one more week here on on content of it. >> Mr. Chairman. If I may. >> Yes, sure. >> For you, Commissioner. >> Uh again, I want to echo what we're saying. Thank you for your service. And uh you've come a long way, my friend, and
you're the first guy I met. >> I know that. Hopefully hopefully it rubbed off the right way. >> And uh I wanted to wonder if I just if I could on the draft of this letter, and I'm not being picky, but on question two or comment two opportunity or if it's appropriate to
talk about uh the fact that that that the number might encompass more than just uh the lawsuit. We have other things that we handle. And I'm not but I'm not sure if that's accurate. So, I wasn't sure. And I know Mr. Cronin might have sent me an answer my computer
that severe problems. I'm going to get that straightened out tomorrow. So, I'm just wondering if that is the figure for the lawsuit or any action with him or there there would be also included in there cuz we have a lot going on. We have a lot to do. We have labor negotiations. We have
contract negotiations. So, like any town, like any community, there's legal expenses. So, I didn't know if we could take a second look at that before it goes out. So, I'm asking. >> Well, one thing I just want to If I can I can call in >> Sure. >> Mr. Chairman Um, you know >> It's being recorded, but everything
everything's on the agenda. >> One of the one of the things that that really kind of hits me hard with this stuff, especially with the legal stuff is and you know I don't know I don't know the exact dates, but for the longest time the advisory board didn't have a legal budget. We had a zero, but we had a
line, but we had zero. We never needed it. The only time we had to put money in there is when we were when we were sued by the register. So, people who make a lot of comments about, you know, why are we spending public funds to defend both
the register started that process back when he first brought the lawsuits using public funds to sue the county. Now, we have to be on the defensive. So, as far as the number is concerned, I can't answer that question. I don't know if that I'm assuming that number is all encompassing. >> Okay. >> To make it look bigger.
How much we're spending on just the lawsuits, that I don't know. >> Right. >> Um, you know >> That's why I didn't know if we wanted to I don't think the verbage reflected that. And if you're sending it to the uh, select boards and mayors who do this, you know, on a regular basis, it might be nice to include that. If it's
accurate that this includes other >> It's all legal. >> No, that's not that's not reflected in that letter. >> That's the that's a comment that I want to change. >> Yeah, that's a change we need to make. >> They said that the the number >> Add that to the feedback. >> Currently, I I think you mentioned this, but we
the chair asked for the feedback from the advisory board to be completed by this Friday. >> Okay. >> So, we can add that to the committee and um >> That is exactly >> We can put a line in there saying that that that that amount is is is all encompassing of all legal costs of the county, not just for >> That's right.
>> being that for the lawsuits that have been brought. >> Okay. >> Thank you. >> I'm okay with that. >> Thank you. Otherwise, good. Thank you, Bart. >> Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. >> Mr. Collins >> Sure. Eric, I want to thank both you and Rick for your leadership. Um, not just
in this issue, but uh over the many years with V53. So, thank you. >> Thank you very much. Okay. Well, I'm going to just just lay this out for me one more time. And we're in a We're going to go forward, no question. We'll take a vote to go forward.
>> So, um I I'm just saying >> stated I'll take it anyway. >> Yeah, I'd recommend that the commissioners take it under advisement at this time. Uh the final draft won't be known um until the board So, the vice board chair and his team can call together any edits. Um and I think at that point his board will
have a vote and then we'll bring it to the commissioners for a vote and get it out. >> Okay. >> So, probably in the next week or so. >> Okay. >> Um sound all right? >> Yeah, I'm figuring that if we ask for edits by Friday, I don't know if I'll be able to get a meeting by next week, but sometime within the next 2 weeks we'll have we'll
have >> I think we'll be getting it out before July 4th it'd be good. >> Oh, I was I want to get it out. >> Okay, why don't we say that cuz this sounds a little different. >> Yeah. >> And July 4th is just straight around the corner. >> That's a couple of weeks away. So, in a couple of weeks we'll I mean we'll talk then. We'll talk to you tomorrow about
working something out in the next week or the following. >> Yeah, we can definitely help you with that. >> Okay. Thank you, Eric. >> Okay, I'd like a little notice I'd like a little vote to take this under advisement. Take some time. And then the affirmation vote will take when we're ready to go. >> Uh
>> With With >> Move that we take the >> 4th day. >> item four under advisement. Second. >> Okay, motion made and seconded. All in favor? >> Aye. >> We're going to take this under advisement with the intention of completing it before July 4th.
Thank you, Eric. >> Eric, thank you. >> Thank you very much. >> I'm not going to I'm not going to leave yet. I'll just stick around for a little while if that's okay. >> Sure, yeah. >> Thanks for your >> I don't get over here too >> Really? >> I don't get over here too often. I don't get over here too often, so you know, I want to hear what you guys have to say. >> All right. >> We'll Let's
We'll see. >> Each week that I mean we have public comment, it's an agenda item. >> Let's do something now. >> Well, now is the time for anyone out in in Zoomland, so to speak, or in person to come in, say hello, and uh

He talked about this period of the year. But he talked about the system. He said it could be another one in Stoughton.
What I want to know is how soon Stoughton will be getting it online. >> I don't know the timeline on that. >> It's at least a year we're we're likely going to pulse these one at a time with the projected cost. The Dedham District Court
project was just under a million dollars. And so the value that we expect the other districts will be similar. Brookline is deemed to be most in need Stoughton following that. So likely a year from now we'll be doing Stoughton. >> Okay, so it's based upon the more
critical need that's why another one why Stoughton was pushed back. But that's really >> The Bay Facility Director was put them in prior order of priority of need. >> Okay. All right. That was my question. All right. Sounds good. So now you would like a motion to
