Explanation: This is a "clean-up" article to meet the requirement of reserving funds from the supplemental CPA FY 2020 Trust Fund distribution. The amount of FY 2020 state reimbursement received by the Town of Mashpee was $219,710 higher than the initial estimate and due to a surplus in the FY 2019 state budget.

Chapter 44B, §5 for the purpose of funding the Retrofit of the Vault Project including necessary costs and expenses related thereto, as recommended by the Community Preservation Committee, or take any other action relating thereto. Submitted by the Community Preservation Committee Explanation: The goal of this project is to retrofit the vault in the Town Clerk's Office with mobile storage shelving with carriages, track and steel end panels to store vital records. Retrofitting the vault with mobile shelving would increase the vault storage by approximately 60%. The vault currently stores all of the vital records for the Town as well as IT data for the Town's computer servers, ZBA decisions and election ballots.
