- Review

Discussed the public forum agenda taking place
that evening. Sweet
will open up the forum welcoming the participants, and introducing
the consultants from C.O.G.. Judi
Barrett(C.O.G.) will then take the meeting from there, but the
Master Plan committee members will be available for support as
needed.
Sadwick reviewed the handout re “Rules for
Visioning” and how to state ideas positively using action verbs to
allow for a more positive exchange of ideas.

Library in the first floor meeting room.
If possible, each committee member is to arrive one hour
early to help set up. Reed and Duffy will again take care of the refreshments.
- Approval
of Meeting Minutes
The meeting minutes of October 10, 2002 were
approved by a motion and accepted unanimously.
- Master
Plan Committee Membership
Discussed opening up the current Master Plan
Committee’s membership to possibly include members of the School
Committee, Historical Committee or others.
It was decided that increasing the number of committee
members would be too cumbersome.
But the committee felt that it was important that the School
Committee know their involvement is welcome during the Master Plan
process. As a result,
the committee agreed to have Sadwick begin a dialogue with the
School Committee, and Sadwick will begin to copy them on the Master
Plan meeting minutes, so that they will be able to participate as
desired.
- Next
Scheduled Meeting
The next meeting will be at the Tewksbury
Public Library at 1:00pm on Saturday, November 9, 2002, prior to the
second public forum. Gill
motioned for adjournment to occur at the conclusion of the public
forum and Duffy seconded.
