10 <br /> Board of Selectmen <br /> Minutes <br /> December 7, 2020 <br /> NEW BUSINESS <br /> Update on the Cape and Islands Water Protection Trust: Andrew Gottlieb: (continued) <br /> It is important to realize the Management Board of the Trust does not select member towns for grant funding. The <br /> directive lies solely on the intensive review of the Clean Water State Revolving Fund program. The CWSRF Board <br /> determines the subsidy percentage for qualified pre-existing projects. <br /> Municipalities should be notified of their eligibility in late March. By the end of May the subsidy percentage <br /> will be revealed as well as the qualification for 0% interest loans. Subsidy percentage applies to the principal of all <br /> projects costing over $1 million. The total monetary value of each grant equals the subsidy percentage times the <br /> final project cost. The amount is allocated in four installments. For projects costing less than$1 million, the <br /> subsidy percentage is doubled. <br /> This is a predictable and reliable source of funds for the member communities across the Cape to assist with <br /> wastewater infrastructure and water quality remediation. <br /> Convene Joint Meeting-with the Affordable HousingTrust: <br /> rust: <br /> The Affordable Housing Trust convened their meeting at 7:52 p.m. <br /> Members present include Selectman John Cotton, Selectman Thomas O'Hara, Selectman Carol Sherman, <br /> Selectman Andrew Gottlieb, Selectman David Weeden, Affordable Housing Committee member Allen Isbitz <br /> and Finance Committee member Mike Richardson. <br /> Discussion and Approval of the Minutes of Monday, February 10, 2020: <br /> Motion made by Selectman Gottlieb to approve the minutes of February 10,2020 as presented. <br /> Motion seconded by Selectman Sherman. <br /> VOTE: Unanimous. 6-0-1. <br /> Roll Call Vote: <br /> Selectman Cotton,yes Selectman O'Hara,yes Selectman Sherman,yes <br /> Selectman Gottlieb,yes Selectman Weeden,yes Mr. Isbitz, abstained <br /> Mr. Richardson,yes Opposed, none <br /> Discussion and Approval of Termination of Memorandum of Agreement with Mashpee Housing <br /> Authority for Mashpee Housing Assistance Program II: <br /> Correspondence was received from the Mashpee Housing Authority dated September 22, 2020 giving notice of <br /> withdrawal from the Housing Assistance Program If due to time constraints and financial costs to administer the <br /> program.
