At the present time, Finance Committee's motion is to Indefinitely Postpone this article. Charlie Aspinwall will meet
with the Fin Com prior to the start of ATM to see if they will consider the attached motion. Our understanding is that If
Fin Com agrees, they will most likely be presenting this as an substitute motion. If Fin Com doesn't support the motion,
the BOS will present as a Substitute Motion. Does the Moderator agree with this approach?
Please advise.

Subject: RE; Article 60: Gridley School Alternate Motion
H i Charlie —when Fin Com next meets at 6pm on May 14th in the high school cafeteria, you're invited to speak to
Fin Com about this positive motion. Since there's no guarantee that Fin Com will change their motion on article 60 from
postpone indefinitely to the positive one below, I suggest that Tina make 300 copies of this positive motion for voters to
get at ATM. If Fin Com agrees with the positive motion, they will make that motion. If they don't, the BOS will have to
make the substitute motion. Thanks.

Charlie,
As requested, here is an alternate motion for Article 60. ~
Moved, that the Board of Selectmen be authorized to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all or any portions of
or interests in, including but not limited to a preservation restriction, that certain property identified by the
Town Assessor as Map 25, Parcel 1 and located at 314 Washington Street in Canton, together with the
i mprovements thereto, including the Gridley School; that the care, custody and control of such property be
transferred to the Board of Selectmen for such purposes; and that the Board of Selectmen be authorized to

For the above motion to be adopted requires atwo-thirds majority Town Meeting vote.
~~}~
I n addition, based upon the minutes from a Board of Selectmen vote taken in 1975 (copy attached), it appears
that the property was already declared by the School Committee to be surplus property and accepted by the
Board of Selectmen, which should be a prerequisite to a vote on the above motion. If there is any doubt
a bout the declaration of surplus or if you have any questions, please let us know.

Subject: Gridley -DPW Water/Sewer Storage Building
George —The task force the Selectmen has tasked with examining these buildings and making a
recommendation relative fio their use and or disposition has discussed several options for each
building. It would be prudent for the committee to hear from any individual or group concerned with
these buildings prior to making a final report to the BOS. If you or anyone connected with the
Historical Commission would like to provide input I would be happy to bring that to the task force for
consideration.

REPORT OF THE
GRIDLEY SCHOOL —WATER/SEWER STORAGE BUILDING TASK FORCE
APRIL 3, 2018
The Board of Selectmen has charged the Task Force (TF) to examine the condition of
The Gridley School on Washington St. and the Water/Sewer Storage Building on Pine
St. The TF has visited both sites, developed criteria by which the buildings would be
reviewed, contacted interested parties and hereby makes its report.
The criteria by which our recommendations are made are as follows:
1. Town need of the building
2. Historical value of the building
3. Potential town uses
4. Potential community uses
5. Condition of building
6. Costs to repair
7. Status of other town building needs
8. Allowed uses under zoning
9. Town financial condition
10. Time
GRIDLEY SCHOOL
The Gridley School, originally constructed in 1854, is a two story structure situated on a
stone foundation. It was last used for a daycare program. Its interior finishes are
unremarkable and much of the historical treatments in the interior of the building have
been stripped away over the years. The historical exterior of the building has been
preserved, although it is in need of repair. The Town recently spent approximately
$150,000 to stabilize the roof structure which had separated from the main structure,
most likely due to snow load. Anew shingle roof is needed. The status of fihe building
is listed on the attached compilation of the more defiailed GRLA report on the condition
of the building. There are structural issues related to the second floor which prevent the
second floor from being used.
1. Town need for the building — as the building currently exists there is no need for
fihe building. There is a noted need for storage space for town records but the
building cannot meet that need without substantial structural repairs.
2. Historical value of the building —the building was built in 1854 as a school and
was named after General Richard Gridley, Chief Engineer of the Continental
Army. The exterior of the Building retains its historical value but aside from a
damaged tin ceiling on the second floor, there is little historical value in the
interior of the building.
3. Potential Town uses -The vacancy of the building was discussed at a recent
department head meeting but no deparkment saw the building as a potential siteSource page 12
for meeting departmental needs. The building was mentioned as a site for
strorage of town records but structural issues would have to be addressed first.
4. Potential Community uses — Similar to town uses above, the structural issues of
the building limit occupancy to the first floor. The potential for a museum or artist
space were raised but it was noted that such space is being planned for the Paul
Revere Heritage Site. Boy Scout space was mentioned but again, renovations
would be needed requiring town appropriations when meeting space is already
available for private groups(Armando Center, Pequitside, school space, Town
office meeting rooms, Library).
5. Condition of building —The roof structure was recently stabilized costing $153K.
the corner frieze on the west side needs replacement and there are rotted
clapboards at the foundation line. The second floor is structurally unsound for a
public purpose. There are punky spots at the rim joists. (see attached
summarized report)
6. Anew roof and soffit work is needed at a cost of $140,000. Other improvements
noted on the attached summary include $2.6 million dollars of improvements
needed in the next five years and nearly $80,000 in year 5-10.
7. Other Town Building needs:
Schools —The School department has presented a list of school improvements
totaling $141,000,000 over the next five years. See attached)
Town —The town has completed a master planning process identifying
$33,000,000 in needed municipal building costs over the next ten years. (see
attached)
8. Zoning uses allowed —The uses allowed in the district (single residence B)
include single family residential and or municipal, philanthropic, child care,
education uses. The abutting property is a two unit condo, and across the street
there are also multi-unif buildings. An application for a two unit condo could be
made arguing that a two unit building would be in harmony with the
neighborhood.
9. Town financial condition —While the town is currently in good financial condition,
significant unexpected special education costs (totaling over $2.0 million) are
expected in FY18 and FY19 thafi will reduce town reserves. That, coupled with
the significant amount of actively used building upgrades being needed, places
the restoration of the Gridley at a lower position in terms of significant investment
in buildings.
10.Time —the building is not in jeopardy of failure but the roof and the soffits need
immediate repair.
RECOMMENDATION
The committee suggests that the best option for the building is to place a
historical preservation restriction on the structure so as to preserve the exterior of
the structure and authorize the Board of Selectmen to sell the structure.Source page 13

REPORT OF THE
GRIDLEY SCHOOL — WATER/SEWER STORAGE BUILDING TASK FORCE
APRIL 3, 2018
The Board of Selectmen has charged the Task Force (TF)to examine the condition of
The Gridley School on Washington St. and the Water/Sewer Storage Building on Pine
St. The TF has visited both sites, developed criteria by which the buildings would be
reviewed, contacted interested parties and hereby makes its report.
The criteria by which our recommendations are made are as follows:
1. Town need of the building
2. Historical value of the building
3. Pofiential town uses
4. Potenfiial community uses
5. Condition of building
6. Costs to repair
7. Status of other town building needs
8. Allowed uses under zoning
9. Town financial condition
10.Time
WATER-SEWER STORAGE BUILDING
The Water —Sewer Storage Building, originally constructed in 1888, is a multi-story
structure situated on a stone foundation. It was last used as a water source in the
1950's. Its interior finishes are in disrepair but the main stairway to the ground floor and
the arch style door retain their character. The building contains old pumping equipment
and motors. Groundwater is high under the structure floor. The historical exterior of the
building is in extreme disrepair with the northwest wall having pulled away from the
building. The second floor joists are not supported due to the wall pulling away. The
Building Commissioner has deemed it an unsafe structure for first responders and is not
habitable. It is no longer used by the DPW. Active water piping may run below the floor
increasing the cost of demolition or use. There is little in the way of hazardous
materials in the building. Attached to the building is a domed water storage structure
which is aloo in extreme disrepair.
1. Town need for the building — as the building currently exists there is no need for
the building. There is a noted need for storage space for town records but the
building cannot meet that need without substantial sfiructural repairs. The
dampness in the structure makes it unsuitable for records storage.
2. Historical value of the building —the building was built in 1888 as water pumping
station. The exterior of the Building retains its historical value but is unsafe and is
currently fenced off. The Building Commissioner has deemed it an unsafeSource page 19
structure for first responders and is uninhabitable. There is limited historical
architecture in the interior of the building.
3. Potential Town uses -The building was mentioned as a site for strorage of town
records but structural issues would have to be addressed and dampness makes
it unsuitable for records storage. If the building is demolished there is potential to
link the site to nearby wetland trails or the Devol field.
4. Potential Community uses — Similar to town uses above, the structural issues of
the building prohibits occupancy of the building. The multi-floor configuration
limits use.
5. Condition of building —The exterior of the building is in an extreme state of
disrepair. The northwest wall has pulled away from the building causing the loss
of support to the second floor. The chimney is pulling away from the building.
The deterioration makes the building open to vermin. The Town must better
understand the water pipe layout below the floor. Plans are being looked for.
The building has been deemed unsafe for occupancy.
6. GRLA architects have estimated the immediate one year structural repair costs
are $126,710; which may be a very low repair estimate. The five year costs to
repair are estimated at $1.3 million dollars. Five-10 years costs are $57,400.
7. Other Town Building needs:
Schools —The School department has presented a list of school improvements
totaling over $142,000,000 over the next five years.(See attached)
Town —The town has completed a master planning process identifying
$33,000,000 in needed municipal building costs over the next ten years. (see
attached)
8. Zoning uses allowed —The uses allowed in the district(PROSD)include
recreation, open space, governmental, and education uses.
9. Town financial condition —While the town is currently in good financial condition,
significant unexpected special education costs (totaling over $2.0 million) are
expected in FY18 and FY19 that will reduce town reserves. That, coupled with
the significant amount of actively used building upgrades being needed, places
the restoration of the Garage at a lower position in terms of significant investment
in buildings.
10.Time —the building is in jeopardy of failure and has been designated as unsafe
for habitation. A fence surrounds the fall zone of the northwest wall.
RECOMMENDATION
The committee suggests that due to the unsafe condition of the structure, the
lack of need for the space, the proximity of groundwater to the floor, and the
costs to repair, the best option for the building is to tear down the structure and
incorporate the land into a wetland trail system linked to the nearby Devof field.Source page 20

FROM Jim Murgia, Finance Director
DATE April 26, 2018
SUBJECT: Operating Results as of March 31, 2018
Attached for your review are three reports showing the general fund's revenues and expenditures for the
first nine months of fiscal 2018, as of March 31, 2018, as compared to a year ago.
The summary report compares actual revenue and expenditures as of March 31, 2018 against budget.
We budgeted a $455,000 operating deficit due to free cash being used for an additional transfer to OPEB
($200,000), master plan update ($150,000), School HVAC ($100,000) and for community recognition
($5,000). The actual operating surplus for the first nine months of fiscal 2018 amounted to $3.8 million as
shown on this summary. Last year's first nine months surplus amounted to $3.6 million.
During the first nine months we paid Norfolk County Retirement System $4.8 million to fund our fiscal
2018 pension assessment. By making one annual payment, instead of two semi-annual payments, we
saved over $92,000. This payment is included in the Fixed Costs total expenditures for the first nine
months.
The revenue report(2 pages) shows revenue for the first nine months totaled $71.8 million. This amount
represents 79% of the budgeted revenue for fiscal 2018, which is slightly better than expected after nine
months into the fiscal year. Revenue for the first nine months of fiscal 2018 is also 5.5% more than last
year's first nine months total of $68.0 million. Taxpayers prepaying their property taxes in December
contributed to the increased revenue during this period.
The expenditure report(4 pages) shows departmental operating expenditures for the first nine months of
the year, compared to a year ago. Including non-payroll encumbrances, these expenditures totaled $67.1
million or 75% of budget as of March 31, 2018 which is expected after nine months into the fiscal year.
Actual expenditures for the first nine months amounted to $66.1 million, which is 6% more than a year
ago.
hope you will find this information to be useful. If you have any questions or comments, please let me
know.
