APPOINTMENT TO BOARDS AND COMMITTEES Tax Increment Finance District Advisory Board Downtown A motion was made by Mr. Pope and seconded by Ms. Kier to appoint Alison Raymond to seat 1 of the Tax Increment Finance District Advisory Board Downtown. Voice vote: motion carried 9-0. Policy Committee Philip (Joe) Osgood, Sr., Chad Rolston, and Bonita (Bonnie) Miles applied for seat 5 of the Policy Committee. Mr. Pope said he did research and when there is more than one applicant, Council normally does a nomination process. Mr. Koloski nominated Chad Rolston and Mr. Damren seconded.

4 Page 226 Mr. Pope nominated Philip (Joe) Osgood, Sr. and Mr. Zullo seconded. Ms. Kier nominated Bonita (Bonnie) Miles and Ms. Lessard seconded. Mr. Koloski said according to Mr. Osgood s application, he is related to Messrs. Stone and O Hearne and past practice has been that those Councilors would not vote in matters regarding relatives. He mentioned the Conflict of Interest Policy. Mayor Lovett said that if a person were to be appointed to a committee and there would be a conflict of interest on an issue, then they would recuse themselves. Ms. Kier said she nominated Ms. Miles because she would bring a different point of view that might help round out the committee. Mr. Koloski said Mr. Osgood sits on the Airport Advisory Board and Mr. Koloski would like to cycle in some fresh faces onto the boards and commissions. Ms. Lessard concurred. Mr. Pope said Mr. Osgood was on the Transfer Station Ad Hoc Committee, and a Charter Commission, so he is aware of several policies in the community. Votes: Chad Rolston: Mr. Koloski Philip (Joe) Osgood, Sr.: Messrs. Stone, Zullo and Pope Bonita (Bonnie) Miles: Ms. Lessard, Mr. Damren, Mayor Lovett and Ms. Kier Mr. O Hearne did not vote Claremont Energy Advisory Committee William Carpenter currently holds seat A1 and Robin Hutchins holds seat 5. They wish to swap seats. Ms. Hutchins requested the swap as she will be out of the state for six months this year and she feels she would best serve the Committee as an alternate. Mr. O Hearne asked the purpose of the alternate seats. Mr. Pope said the alternates take part in the discussion, but they are not an active vote, unless there is an empty regular seat. Mr. O Hearne said this is a waste of time. When Ms. Hutchins is gone, the alternate would step in and vote anyway, so he saw no reason to discuss this. Mayor Lovett said according to Ms. Hutchins explanation that she will be out of town so much and it would be better for Mr. Carpenter to sit in the regular seat and she would take the alternate. Mr. Pope said Ms. Hutchins wanted to take the alternate seat, because she wasn t sure how long she would be gone. A motion was made by Mr. Koloski and seconded by Mr. Damren to appoint William Carpenter to seat 5 of the Claremont Energy Advisory Committee. Voice vote: motion carried 7-2 with Messrs. O Hearne and Mr. Stone voting no.

5 Page 227 A motion was made by Mr. Koloski and seconded by Mr. Damren to appoint Robin Hutchins to seat A1 of the Claremont Energy Advisory Committee. Voice vote: motion carried 7-2 with Messrs. O Hearne and Stone voting no. CITIZEN S FORUM Joe Osgood, Ward 2, said at the September 19 meeting that he had expressed concern that the Council was not aware that according to RSA 76:19-a Abatement for Brownfields Property, the governing body can abate taxes when a brownfield is involved. Mr. Osgood asked for a document from the Council stating that the Council was unaware of the abatement and it was brought to the Council s attention through the public; the Council is aware that Philip (Joe) Osgood and Jim Sullivan are involved in this at the BTLA level; and he would like the Council to instruct City departments to supply documents directly connected to Topstone Holdings LLC for use only for the hearing responding to the BTLA, for no charge. Mayor Lovett said under Old Business there would be an Assessment Abatement Process Update. Chris Kilmer, Staff Representative from AFSCME, asked to speak. Council concurred. He said he was here for the Public Works and Clerical staff. He said their union negotiations have been at impasse since June. Both contracts expired in December He said they are asking to be treated fairly and to move forward. The last offer was in August, but he hasn t seen a reply. They have been in negotiations since the beginning of December Gary Dickerman, Ward 2, Conservation Commission Chair, talked about the Source to Sea Cleanup on September 28 and 29; members of Eversource, community members, two Windsor High School students, and Mayor Lovett participated. They cleaned the Rail Trail, Pleasant Street to Broad Street, Chestnut Street to Washington Street; Ashley s Landing boat launch; and on Jarvis Hill. He thanked Mr. Koloski for the donation of bags and gloves, and Tractor Supply Company, Home Depot and Runnings for the donations of 5-gallon buckets. They are still gathering data on what was collected. Mr. Pope thanked the students for helping with the cleanup. The Stevens High School students have their community service day on Friday. OLD BUSINESS City Fee Schedule Public Hearing Proposed change to Fire Department Fee Schedule: Monitoring of Private Fire Alarm Systems - Inside City Limits/Wired System $ $ per box/per year.

6 Page 228 Mr. Damren said the Finance Committee had discussed the City Manager s Office fees and the Fire Department s fees and this was the only change. Fire Chief Bryan Burr said the intention was to increase the fee to cover the expenses of the system. There are only 30 wired systems left in the City. Moving toward a wireless system will reduce costs and injuries (from the high voltage lines). A motion was made by Mr. Damren and seconded by Mr. Zullo to adopt the City Fee Schedule with the change to the Fire Department fees. Mayor Lovett opened the public hearing. No one spoke. She closed it. Voice vote: motion carried 9-0. Assessment Abatement Process Update Mayor Lovett said the Policy Committee met to discuss the assessment abatement process. There was no quorum, but there was a discussion and assignments were given to Committee members. She said she looked at other cities with Claremont s form of government and four have boards of assessors: Keene, Berlin, Lebanon and Concord. The Committee will bring forth a proposal for a board of assessors to the November 14 Council meeting. NEW BUSINESS Confirmation of Discontinuance of Old Jarvis Hill Road Between Map Lot 67-3 and 67-4 Nancy Merrill, Planning and Development Director, said this is for housekeeping. In 1981 by petition, Council discontinued Old Jarvis Hill Road. However, the road still shows as existing. The process was not completed. This is to confirm the discontinuance and to relinquish all interests in a portion of Old Jarvis Hill Road. Mr. Pope agreed with this. He asked about efforts to clean up paper streets. Ms. Merrill said the City deals with them as they come up. Almost all subdivisions have streets that were never built. A motion was made by Mr. Damren and seconded by Ms. Kier Form of motion, In order to clarify the portion of Old Jarvis Hill Road discontinued by vote of the City Council on March 11, 1981, I move the adoption of the following vote: Vote: The vote taken on March 11, 1981, to discontinue a certain section of Class V Highway known as the Old Jarvis Hill Road, which did not specify the section of Old Jarvis Hill Road to be discontinued, is hereby ratified and confirmed, and, for elimination

7 Page 229 of doubt, clarified to have been intended to, and did, discontinue and relinquish all interests in the portion of Old Jarvis Hill Road westerly of Main Street between tax map 67, lot 3, and tax map 67, lot 4, and extending from the Jarvis Hill Road right of way at the northern side of tax map 67, lot 3, to the Jarvis Hill Road right of way at the southern side of tax map 67, lot 3, and tax map 67, lot 4. The City Manager is authorized to record in the Sullivan County Registry of Deeds a notice of discontinuance, to provide a title record of the discontinuance. Paul LaCasse, Ward 2, said he was in favor of getting rid of the road, but wanted to make sure the City has clear title to it because part of the road is a state road. Ms. Merrill said she can check that out and bring this back to the next meeting. A motion was made by Mr. Damren and seconded by Mr. Stone to table this until October 24, Voice vote to table: motion carried 9-0. Resolution Accept and Expend AmeriGas Funds, Lower Cul de Sac Place Public Hearing WHEREAS the City entered into an Agreement, dated March 27, 2015, with AmeriGas Propane, L.P. ( AmeriGas ) regarding the City s acquisition of the former Synergy Gas Plant (the Site ) located at Lower Cul-de-Sac Place (Map 120, Lot 10) upon completion of environmental clean-up of the Site, as well as portions of City-owned property located at 14 North Street (Map 108-1) and North Street (Map ); and WHEREAS, as part of this Agreement, upon completion of the clean-up and delivery of a deed transferring Map 120, Lot 10 to the City, AmeriGas agreed to pay to the City the sum of $75, (seventy-five thousand dollars) to assist the City with expenses related to the Site; and WHEREAS the Council, by motion dated April 15, 2015, authorized acceptance of Map 120, Lot 10 upon completion of remediation actions pursuant to a final Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order between AmeriGas and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the EPA ) and signature of the Agreement between AmeriGas and the City; and WHEREAS the EPA has issued a Notice of Completion of the work at the Site; NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that pursuant to RSA 34:1-a there is established a Lower Cul-de-Sac Non-Capital Reserve Fund for the purpose of operations and maintenance related to property located at Lower Cul-de-Sac and identified in the City s records as Map 120, Lot 10; and

8 Page 230 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council hereby accepts the amount of $75, from AmeriGas upon its execution of a deed to Map 120, Lot 10 to the City, said funds to be deposited into the expendable reserve fund for the purposes outlined above; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Manager or his designees will cause all additional monies received by grant, donation, or otherwise, related to the expenses for Map 120, Lot 10 to be deposited into said expendable reserve fund for the purposes outlined above; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Manager, or his designees, are hereby authorized to undertake all actions and execute all documents as may be necessary to implement this resolution. (Majority Vote Required) Ms. Merrill said part of the deal for the City to take the land is that the City required $75,000 at the time of the transfer. AmeriGas will pay for the first five years of groundwater monitoring and the City will pay for the following five years. The $75,000 will pay for those kinds of costs. Mr. Koloski asked besides monitoring, is there anything else we might have to do in the future. Ms. Merrill said a phase 1 study has been done. There is an activity use restriction document that is now in draft. There will be monitoring until it is decided we can close the well. A report will be required if the site is developed. Reports may be needed from time to time. A motion was made by Ms. Kier and seconded by Mr. Damren to adopt Resolution Accept and Expend AmeriGas Funds, Lower Cul de Sac Place. Ms. Kier read the resolution into the record. Council requested the resolution clearly state what the funds could be spent on. A motion was made by Mr. O Hearne and seconded by Mr. Stone to table this until October 24, Voice vote: motion carried 8-1 with Mr. Damren voting no. Downtown Revitalization Update Mayor Lovett said this is on the agenda in order to discuss the $100,000 for pre-engineering for the downtown and to address concerns of the Council. She said she mentioned at the Planning Board that we have an outdated appendix regarding sidewalks. Mr. McNutt said eight proposals have been received and they referenced complete streets. [Definition: Complete Streets is a philosophy that guides community, planning, and transportation agencies to consider and incorporate safe access to destinations for everyone, regardless of age or ability, or mode of transportation, when feasible. Depending on the street, that could translate into a wider sidewalk, bike lanes, safe crossing opportunities, bus lanes, median islands, roundabouts and more.] There will be public input as well as stakeholder input.

9 Page 231 Ms. Kier said it is important to include the Historic District Commission, Energy Commission, Heart of Claremont, and other groups committed to keeping Claremont beautiful. Mr. Koloski is concerned about the truck route. He asked at what point does the state weigh in. Mr. McNutt said the parking study and truck route information was included in the RFP (Request for Proposals). There was a discussion about the negative impact truck traffic is having in the downtown, i.e. running over flowers and sprinkler heads in the bullpen. If legislative change is required, the timeframe to present an LSR (Legislative Service Request) is in November. There was a discussion about beautifying the Bullpen in Opera House Square and making the downtown as maintenance-free as possible. Resolution Accept and Expend EMPG for Electronic Message Boards for Fire Department Public Hearing WHEREAS the City of Claremont has been awarded a grant from the New Hampshire Department of Safety, Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management (the "State") for the purchase of two electronic message boards for the Claremont Fire Department in the amount of $30,800.00; and WHEREAS the City would like to accept and expend the grant funds for their intended purpose; and NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council hereby authorizes the City Manager or his designees to undertake all actions and execute all documents as may be required to accept the specified grant funds and to implement the funded project in an amount not to exceed the grant award as stated above; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED to raise and appropriate the sum of $30, for the purchase of two electronic message boards (to have no impact on the tax rate); and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Manager or his designees are hereby authorized to undertake all actions as may be required to implement this resolution. (2/3 Vote Required) Fire Chief Bryan Burr, said a 50% soft match is required and the City used the purchase of the K9 police cruiser for it. These are precision solar controlled; assembled and built in the US; solar over battery; mobile; will be used City-wide. They will be stored at the Fire Department barn. They will be maintained under the Traffic Light Division of the Fire Department. A motion was made by Mr. Damren and seconded by Ms. Kier to adopt Resolution Accept and Expend EMPG for Electronic Message Boards for Fire Department.

10 Mr. Damren read the resolution into the record. Council Meeting Page 232 Mayor Lovett opened the public hearing. No one spoke. She closed it. Roll call vote: Lessard - yes O Hearne - yes Stone - yes Damren - yes Zullo - yes Kier - yes Koloski - yes Pope - yes Lovett - yes Motion carried 9-0. Multi-Year Lease Agreement for Public Works Vehicles A motion was made by Mr. Damren and seconded by Mr. O Hearne to authorize the City Manager to enter into a multi-year lease agreement for vehicles and equipment for a term not to exceed eight (8) years for the Claremont Public Works Department, the expenditure for each year of the lease not to exceed $48, For the first year of the lease term, said costs included in the 2019 budget. The proposed lease agreement shall contain a termination clause in the event of non-appropriation of sufficient funds for any subsequent year of the lease. Voice vote: motion carried 9-0. Ordinance 562 Amending the Non-Union Employee Classification Plan First Reading The purpose of this proposed change is to amend Attachment B to the Non-Union Employee Classification Plan by reclassifying the position of Chief Assessor and adding the Legal Assistant and part-time Farmers & Artisan Market Coordinator positions. Enactment of this Ordinance will amend Attachment B to the non-union Employee Classification Plan, as adopted by Ordinance 535 on May 14, 2014, within the existing Attachment C, Non-Union Employee Pay Schedule and as provided for in the 2019 Fiscal Year Operating Budget. Mr. O Hearne said that according to Council Rules, proposed ordinances shall be prepared and certified by the City Solicitor that they are in correct form, however this ordinance does not contain that certification. Mr. O Hearne said according to Council Rules that this ordinance was not reported as a Substitute Ordinance.

11 Page 233 Mayor Lovett said that it does say amending. Mr. Damren said in his mind that is clear. Mr. McNutt said efforts were made by City staff to reach out to Mr. O Hearne for clarification of his objections to this ordinance prior to this meeting, but no response was received. After discussion, Councilors agreed to move forward with this ordinance, but future ordinances would require following Council Rules. A motion was made by Mr. Damren and seconded by Mr. Pope to adopt Ordinance 562 Amending the Non-Union Employee Classification Plan. Mr. Damren read the Explanation of Proposed Action. Mr. O Hearne said Mr. Damren read the Explanation of Proposed Action, but not the ordinance. A motion was made by Ms. Kier and seconded by Mr. Damren to adopt Ordinance 562 Amending the Non-Union Employee Classification Plan. Ms. Kier read the ordinance into the record. Mr. Damren withdrew his first motion and Mr. Pope withdrew his second of that first motion to adopt Ordinance 562 Amending the Non-Union Employee Classification Plan. Mr. McNutt explained that he would like to move the Chief Assessor position from a grade 11 to a grade 12 and make it a department head in order to attract a qualified assessor. There was discussion about raising the pay for just one employee. Also, according to the City Code, there is no Assessing Department. It would be up to the Council whether or not to create a department. Mr. McNutt said most of the people he has interviewed for the Chief Assessor position were asking for six-figure salaries. The person he is interested in hiring for this position is not asking for six figures. Councilors would like to have data to support an increase in salary and also find out from legal counsel the process to establish an assessing department. Ms. Kier and Mr. Damren retracted their motion and second. A motion was made by Mr. Stone and seconded by Mr. Damren to table this until October 24. Mayor Lovett was concerned about adding the Grade 5 Part Time Community Center Farmers & Artisan Market Coordinator position. It was supposed to be a cost-neutral position.

12 Page 234 Mr. Damren suggested undertaking a separate motion directly following the approval of the ordinance outlining what is expected of this part-time position and when it may go away if it doesn t pay for itself and, further, have the Finance Director send the Council monthly reports listing the revenues and expenses to keep track of what was agreed upon. Mr. Pope suggested putting that information in the job description and have a report submitted to the Council similar to what CCTV (Claremont Community Television) does. Voice vote to table the motion: motion carried 9-0. COMMITTEE REPORTS Mr. Pope said the Claremont Energy Advisory Committee will meet Tuesday, October 16, 6-7:30 pm; Sarah Brock, Energy Program Manager at Vital Communities, will help start this process. FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS AND DIRECTIVES Ms. Kier asked for information regarding complete streets be presented to the Council. Mr. Koloski would like a real update on the Public Works and Clerical unions. Mr. McNutt would like to schedule that as a non-meeting with Attorney Matt Upton. Mayor Lovett forwarded to Councilors an invitation to the Safe Stations Academy in Nashua on October 25. She plans to attend. The registration fee is $50. The Council budget can be used for this and for mileage. Mr. Koloski said this involves staffing. Once someone enters the facility, staff cannot leave them alone in order to respond to a call. Mayor Lovett said implementation would be under the City Manager s purview. Mayor Lovett asked if Council was okay with her spending the money to attend. Council concurred. Joe Osgood, Ward 2, asked for a consensus of the Council to his earlier request regarding the abatement. Mayor Lovett said Mr. Osgood had asked for a document that states that the Council had no knowledge of this decision. Councilors agreed that Mayor Lovett will sign a letter on behalf of the Council. Ms. Kier said the other things he had asked for were to direct the administration to provide documents directly connected to Topstone LLC for any hearings or response involving BTLA at no charge and to note that the Council is aware that Sullivan and Osgood are involved at the BTLA level. Mr. Osgood said that he and Mr. Sullivan are not working together. There are no documents that he currently wants. Mayor Lovett said that would be an administrative action. Mayor Lovett said Council could provide a statement that the Council was not aware of the decision.

13 Page 235 Mr. Pope said that he is not aware of what is being done at the BTLA and wasn t comfortable putting his name to that. Mayor Lovett said this will state that the Council is aware they are looking at it. Mr. Pope agreed to that. CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL None NON-PUBLIC SESSION PURSUANT TO RSA 91-A:3,II(a) PERSONNEL At 9:34 p.m., a motion was made by Mr. O Hearne and seconded by Mr. Stone to enter the Non-Public Session pursuant to RSA 91-A:3,II(a) Personnel and to invite Mr. McNutt into the session.
