The submission was written so as <br /> to be part of a facilities plan. It does include the Santuit watershed but not the Waquoit <br /> watershed. <br /> Brad thinks this Commission should formally present these goals. <br /> Torn said we are going on record, officially, on paper that the Commission wants to accomplish <br /> these things. <br /> Tom will get an opinion from Torn Counsel to determine if the Sewer Commission has the <br /> independent authority to seek proposals. The Commission can then find out how much money <br /> would be needed for these plans. <br /> Brad said this Commission has to stand by what is best for the town. The Selectmen can go on <br /> record that they don't want to do it but we have to stand by this and get it going because of the <br /> progression of the deterioration of the watersheds. He would like to formally go before the <br /> Selectmen and discuss it. <br /> Torn would like to get an opinion on the Commission's legal_authority first. <br /> -Discussion with developers regarding the potential of the Sever Commission operating those <br /> plants is another goal. <br /> Tom said at this point, there was no basis to request any additional money for the budget. <br /> The cost for the facilities plan he would expect to be a town meeting article, not a budget item, <br />
