Therefore, be it RESOLVED, that the 2019 Annual Town Meeting:
ACKNOWLEDGES that a more comprehensive and community-wide and/or region-wide approach to addressing the development of and access to recreational resources available for use by Town residents could produce valuable results for the citizens of the Town; and REQUESTS that the Board of Selectmen, at their next meeting after this Town Meeting, create an ad hoc Recreation Resources Committee, consisting of seven (7) voting members plus two ad hoc non-voting members as follows:
FURTHER REQUESTS that the Board of Selectmen, no later than sixty (60) days after the creation of the Recreation Resources Committee as requested above, completes the appointment process for the members of this committee; and FURTHER REQUESTS that the Board of Selectmen, establishes the charge to this committee including, but not limited to:
FURTHER REQUESTS that the Board of Selectmen, requires that this committee provide a report of their activities to date and their progress to the Board of Selectmen no less frequently than every six (6) months, and that these reports be published in such places as on mysouthborough.com and/or the Town of Southborough website.” Summary: Creating a Recreation Resources Committee can identify opportunities for expanded access to recreation assets that the Town may not currently be in a position to afford. This non-binding article seeks to gain a “sense of Town Meeting” relative to creation of this new committee, and thereby begin the process of a more comprehensive look at possible additional recreation assets for access by Town residents.” |
