7 <br /> Board of Selectmen <br /> Minutes <br /> January 23, 2012 <br /> NEW BUSINESS: <br /> Discussion re: Memorandum of Agreement for Maintenance & Repair of School <br /> Buildings and Grounds: (continued) <br /> The Selectmen jointly agreed there is no point in entering into negotiations with a <br /> mediator as the Town Charter is specific in granting authority to the Town <br /> Manager to determine the manner in which the responsibility for District <br /> buildings and grounds maintenance and repair shall be assumed. <br /> It is the opinion of the Board of Selectmen, the Memorandum of Understanding as <br /> developed in October of 2008 is a suitable document to implement the <br /> Consolidation Plan for the maintenance and repair of the Mashpee School <br /> buildings and grounds. <br /> With regards to the Town of Mashpee DPW and the current maintenance and <br /> repair assumptions of the school buildings, it was disclosed the activities are well <br /> documented and a cost savings has been realized. It was also noted that more <br /> Massachusetts towns are taking over the maintenance and repair of school <br /> buildings to control and offset expenses. <br /> LIAISION REPORTS: <br /> Library: A February dinner/dance is planned for the 24th at The Christ the King <br /> Church. <br /> Cape Cod water Collaborative: Presently working with DEP regarding <br /> settlement. <br /> Schools/Recycling: A Mashpee High School student has taken on the initiative to <br /> improve recycling at the high school for her senior project.
