Mr. Porter introduced the two newly elected members of the Board of Selectmen Tom Theodore and
Chris Connolly. He noted that Mr. Theodore had been a member of the Parks and Recreation
Commission and Mr. Connolly had been a member of the Planning Board. The Board welcomed the new
members.
Margaret Murphy, Chestnut Hill Realty was before the Board to discuss the proposal of moving the
entrance to the Waterfall Apartments complex that is owned by Chestnut Hill Realty. In exchange for
allowing the entrance to be moved, Chestnut Hill Realty offered to improve the parking and entrance to
the Bolivar Street Pool. The proposal was to gift the Town $200,000 initially for the improvements and
then $10,000 annually for maintenance for the area. Chestnut Hill Realty had surveyed the land and it
was identified as wetlands. They were asking the Town, as owners of the land, to file an ANRAD with
the Conservation Commission. Town Council had reviewed all the material and it was determined to be
the next logical step in the process.
Motion was made to grant permission for Chestnut Hill Realty to formally file an ANRAD for the land
adjacent to the Bolivar Street pool with the Conservation Commission.
