7 <br /> Achieving 75% design is an engineering milestone to bring forth adequate design to allow the <br /> engineer to provide an allowable cost estimate of$54 million. The treatment plant and sewer service <br /> Area D was fully approved and adopted by the Sewer Commission. <br /> It was noted the project was slightly modified due to inflation, cost increases, COVID limitations, <br /> supply and demand. As a result service Area A was removed from the project scope. Of <br /> importance was the existing water and electricity which required deeper digging to lay the piping. <br /> This resulted in higher costs diminishing the value of the sewer project this area. The project <br /> engineer GHD recommended to not include this area since the service connections only represented <br /> 9% (an estimated 40 connections) at a project cost of$12 million. Due to the constraint, it was <br /> deemed a cost ineffective component of the project at time. The engineer was commended for <br /> recognizing the values associated to this phase of the project. <br /> Sewer service Area D will provide approximately 439 connections. This includes condominium <br /> connections which count as one service connection per condominium. <br /> The financial model as presented will not require additional tax support from the residents. <br /> Overall, the Select Board is pleased with the outcome of the project to move forward with <br /> anticipation for legislative support at the May Town Meeting. <br /> NEW BUSINESS <br /> Discussion and Approval of the May 8, 2021 Annual Town Election Warrant: <br /> Correspondence was received from Deborah Dami, Town Cleric dated March 16,2021 outlining the <br /> Town of Mashpee Annual Election Warrant of May 8, 2021 and Debt Exclusion Question. <br /> Motion made by Selectman Gottlieb to approve the May 8, 2021 Annual Town Election <br /> Warrant with the listed positions and Question 1 to implement Phase 1 for the treatment <br /> plant and related sewer collection system improvements. <br /> Motion seconded by Selectman Sherman. <br /> VOTE: Unanimous. 5-0. <br /> Roll Call Vote: <br /> Selectman Cotton, yes Selectman O'Hara, yes Selectman Sherman, yes <br /> Selectman Gottlieb, yes Selectman Weeden, yes Opposed, none <br /> Board of Selectmen <br /> Minutes <br /> March 22, 2021 <br /> Discussion and Approval of Draft #3 May 3, 2021 Special and Annual Town Meeting Warrant <br /> Articles: <br /> The Board of Selectmen took action on the remaining articles of the Special and Annual Town <br /> Meeting Warrants of May 3, 2021 as follows; <br /> Special Town Meeting Warrant: <br /> Article 1: To deficit spend the Snow& Ice Account- $59,218.29 <br />
