>> I apologize for jumping in, but since this was the one that I had asked you asked you to change, I think just to put in some context, >> yes, >> the the gallons per day left, you have to divide that by 19,000 people. So, you have got literally, you know, well, do the math, you know, it's like one to it's like one one to um four gallons. the the the um the um estimate that I did using exact numbers in the D numbers and the um and the other these two these two um calculations. I don't have them in front of me right now. Um but we have 1 to four gallons per day left per person after all these projects are built. >> John, I'm so sorry. Can you please identify yourself and address for the record? >> I apologize. Yes, Junan Friday, One Shore Road, and I'm on the historical commission speaking as an as an individual resident.
>> Thank you. Sorry. >> Yeah, it's just hard to, you know, even though, you know, to run those not to say that it doesn't, it just it's hard to still say that, oh, that's a lot or that's a little, you know, um, >> it's very little. >> I finally understood what the sentence actually means. Well, that that's, you know, yeah, it'd still be good to have more um explanation about it about that. You know, it it's getting there. It's getting better, but it's not complete. And I still would like that to say something about about the um water, you know, the water bands, like how does that relate? Because that's what people like, you know, we get when there's water bands every summer. Like how can we have capacity like explain the two things that it makes sense to people reading this, you know? >> Well, yeah, because we can guess.
So now I I comprehend it better. If we applied the mass D assumptions, we're only going to have 10,000 gallons left per day. Their assumptions could be off or how they determine that availability is very different clearly from title five. But we can also plug ourselves into this other system and get extra water and just pay for it and assume we don't never have a problem. Right? So >> I'm assuming this this is based on our own water or our own resources. Well, that that's where it gets confusing. Yeah. >> Like um >> current contracts. >> Yeah. Currently, we can only use MWR if we go below a certain level. And that means we don't even have the 179 110 to 179,000 gallons per day. We're well below that before we can kick in MWR to get back up to that. We would have to purchase we would have to do a contract with MWR and purchase a lot of money for a lot of water for a lot of money.
>> Yeah. So, let's go on to page 80, which it says something about that as well. Um, >> no. Yeah, I know. I keep forgetting I keep forgetting we're not on the same page. Yeah. So, I think it's right up right there that we just Ashen's wastewater collection. Yeah. System. So that middle paragraph um it's and it's just a section again where my comment to them was that there may be capacity but are there greater costs to residents for using more water and sewage through these systems. I said best not to treat these explanations uh casually as they are of great importance to Ashlin residents who watch their fees closely. So, >> um, >> thank you for doing that, by the way. >> You're welcome. Um, >> so, uh, wherever this little chart is. Yeah. So, they they caught the they kept they kept referring to, uh, Mendes as a as a renovation.
They were like, uh, it's a little bit more than a res reservation. It was a very expensive reserv reservation. Um, I think we're getting to the end of it. Oh, yeah. Uh, 84. Yeah. Yeah. So, um, >> yeah, they just had it strange. They had it, uh, the way they phrased it was very strange. >> Yeah. So I report to myself. >> Yeah, the planning department in a report. Yeah, it was very it was very strange. It it didn't do anyone any good uh that explanation. >> We are bosses to ourselves. >> Yeah, >> it is really efficient. I will say >> um >> the what? Um, >> no, that is that was not me. Um, I did not do that one. Something on 86. >> Oh, yeah. Um, yes, they they Yeah, they had that they had something about things coming before the planning board and we're like, we don't do that.
So, >> Oh, yeah. That doesn't under the joint remit of the planning of the ZBA. Yeah, that's still up. Thank you for I didn't say that. Um, and that >> I'm trying to see if I I don't know if I have anything in the appendex. Let me >> uh No, that was my last one. >> Thank you, Trisha, for doing this. >> Yeah, thank you. >> It was a long read. >> I mean, I got kind of into it once you got going. >> Yeah. like a novel. >> I'm okay. >> I mean, I take back my comment about the original confusion thing with the gallons because I think the later one is better and it's fine >> with the changes that you proposed. I'm fine voting for it with Trish's changes. >> I I think the the the big things I think that corrected in there, which I think they caught all of them, was the planning board doesn't do this.
We aren't doing this. we, you know, this isn't our responsibility, which I think was really important to have clear in there. Other things are, hey, this is how I feel about something, but it's just it's it's just me. I'm just making the comment, right? So, I'm it's not like all those have to be in there. But, I think they I was really impressed. They did a really good job picking up my comments like that that they paid they really paid attention. Like, they really did. So, I I think that's great. I think that shows something about the quality of the firm. They're great, >> you know, to work with. So >> anyway, um >> I can make a motion to approve the draft the housing production plan with Trisha's edits. >> Second that. >> All right. Uh roll call vote. >> Deep. >> Hannah Tesman.
I >> Trisha Kenda. Awesome. Okay. Monday if that's okay. The edits by the end of the day Monday for you to look at for us to submit to Jen. >> Yeah, I didn't know how they wanted to proceed with that, but yeah, we can >> that works. >> We can Yeah, look at them. >> Just to make sure I captured everything if that's okay. >> Um Okay. Uh anything on the implementation committee? That's April 1. But I remember and we were all there so somebody refreshing my memory. I was virtual. What I remember is the next step is Yolanda and me I think are supposed to draft something to the comprehensive plan committee to get them to express interest and get some names for our next joint meeting. And I thought we were also going to try to post online for the general public by the next meeting.
Did I make that second part up? That sounds kind of right. >> So then I did email Yolanda today because I don't know if she's drafting it or I'm drafting it, who's drafting it. So I sent her like a blurb that she could send to the comprehensive plan committee and then I like created an ad that the town could post and I CCed Michael. So I'm assuming if we want to get this done by April 1st, it should be edited, approved, and done. So, I don't know if Yolanda needs to look at it, but I remember she was traveling. Like, I don't know if I'm making that up, too. >> Um, >> she was traveling, but I don't remember when. >> In in April, but it was after April 1st, because we talked about joint meeting on April 1st before she left to resolve it.
So, then she could >> Okay. So, maybe she'll get what I just sent her and we can get that done. >> And hopefully it's not too late since it's March 12th. I'm sure she can edit it and get it over to Michael and it can be over with. That's the update. >> All right. So, okay. Any anything on the reports? A CPC Metro West comprehensive plan. >> We didn't have a meeting since last time we talked. >> Okay. >> Um, and then all we have is the meeting minutes. I really haven't had a chance. It's the one thing I did not read is the meeting minutes. Um, >> can we put the February 26 up or do we have them in here somewhere? >> They are in there. >> Perfect. >> Yeah. >> So, if we wanna >> can skim them a little bit. >> So, this is when we were talking uh >> Goldson was talking about the housing production plans, which is what we were discussing.
Oh, maybe it's in the meeting minutes. Oh, here. Board members agreed that the planning board will attend the select board's meeting on April 1st. >> Um, Miss Tesmani suggested that she and Miss Greavves work on drafting communications to comprehensive plan committee members, members of the public to find who's interested. There you go. >> Okay, >> it's in print. >> So, she has my draft. 60 deep. >> Yes, that's his >> Flavio. Yes. >> Oh, okay. >> I didn't remember his last name on >> But thank you for checking. These are very detailed minutes. Very >> Laura does an amazing job. >> I'm happy with them. Yeah, I just skimming, but I don't see a I don't see anything I miss. Um Okay, I'll make a motion to approve the February 26, 2026 minutes. >> Seconded. >> A roll call vote. Anna Tesman I >> Montino I >> and Trisha Kendall I >> the March 26 I don't see them in the packet but I remember seeing them in email version that was like when we met with the select board right the March 26 >> oh no that's the meeting sorry >> yeah this is >> that is a future but I think I saw another set of minutes that had to do with the joint meeting with the select board did I make that up >> I think this was our >> this was a joint this This is a joint meeting.
>> Yeah, >> not today's meeting. >> No, the last meeting. >> That's our last meeting. We're we're very up to date with the meeting minutes. >> Oh, >> she goes really fast. >> No, what I'm saying is I think >> Hold on. This is it. Okay. All right. So, it's the same version. Got it. I'm good. Perfect. >> Um, yes. So, one thing um in our schedule, we don't have to determine this today. Um, our schedule in April, the second meeting falls in school vacation week. Um, I will definitely not be here and we do have a 3-w weekek span in between. So, we might want to just shift it down one week. Um, >> so that's April 23rd. >> Yeah. So instead of April 23rd doing April 30th and then our next meeting still isn't until I think May 14th. >> Um because we have that extra week in there.
>> Okay. So right now we have the joint meeting on the first. >> Mhm. >> And you're saying the next one is >> well that's that's their meeting I think. >> Right. >> So when is our regular meetings? So we would be meeting >> March 26th and then April 9th and April 23rd would be >> Got it. Okay. >> Right. And so the April 23rd is school break week. And I know I will not be here >> but I believe we have three weeks. >> It's one of those three week gaps. And so if we move it to April 30th, then I'm here if we >> if we need special permits. >> That's a good idea. >> Is everybody okay with that? Any plans? That's a lot of Yeah, that's okay. >> And then we go into And then we go into May. >> So, the planning board meeting would be the 9th and the 30th.
>> Yeah. Okay. Great. >> With the joint meeting on the 1st, >> right? Awesome. All right. And then the last Well, does anyone else have any announcements? >> No. >> Okay. So, then my last kind of announcement is that after the elections, Deepa has pulled paper for her seat. Paul has pulled papers for his seat. Um, but after the elections, when we organize, when we reorganize the board, I'm just letting you know that I will not be accepting a nomination for chair. I will not be accepting a nomination for chair. I threw it out there before, but I'm rescending that offer. I will be very in support of helping anyone. when I came on to be chair, there were no chairs left on the board and so it was just >> chairs. >> No chairs left on the board. Yeah. So, it was all just kind of learning.
Um, but whoever steps in, I'm happy to help in whatever way. I figure everybody here has leadership experience. Everybody here has run a committee, you know, at some point. So, it doesn't matter if you're your first year or your however manyth year for you guys. Um, if anyone has questions, just just just let me know and we'll look at making a transition. So, I promise I won't be really mean sitting in one of the other seats. I'll be very nice and polite and understanding. >> What's the fun in that? So, >> and she'll still be editing all the decisions. Probably >> maybe. >> Probably. Probably. >> I can't help it. Like, I can't help it. Like, >> I don't think you can. >> Not not gonna lie. If you keep that part of the thing, I think more people would be open to it. >> Yeah, I would too.
I am too. >> We have to do that part. >> If you make me edit any decision, >> if Trisha stops editing the decisions, you know, we're gonna have to read them. >> Same. You're enabling us. >> I can't. Yeah, maybe. Just saying. I maybe I I just can't I can't stand something with >> I mean there are I will say there's a lot of different ways to run boards. >> The overwhelming way that Trisha has been doing it is a burnout way >> and we do you know what I mean? I'm shocked that you've done it for as long as you have because you you tend to do everything. Um, and so you know the if if we're going to kind of reorganize, there's many ways to do it. And we could take turns editing decisions. We can technically have um chair and co-chair kind of alternate running meetings so that the chair is not always running the meetings.
Um, the preparation that's pretty severe and extensive that Trisha does, the chair cannot escape. you're gonna have to work closely with Jasmine regardless. So, I don't think that can be shared by people, but like the other things that Trisha does like editing decisions, running these meetings, I don't see why that can't be done by multiple people. >> I think it's just something >> in like a triage of, you know, organized fashion. There's enough of us here that we could probably organize and run this board without putting it all in one person. >> Yeah. I think it's just something for everyone to every that everyone to consider. And like like I said, I don't just opening it up to everybody.
Um if you have any questions about it, let me know. I do think there's definitely other ways that we can other ways that we can do things. Um so, but I'm just going to I'm putting that out there. Five years is five years is good. That's a good solid number. >> I'm ready to join the peanut gallery. >> Five years is a long time, Trisha. That's for sure. >> What's it? Five years is a long time. >> It's a long time. So, um I I know other people have done it longer. I think Preston did it longer. I think I think there's been other people that have done it longer, but five years is is is good for me. So, um but anyway, so that that's all I have. If no one has anything else, we will >> make a motion to adjourn at 10:33.
>> Second that. >> And a roll call vote. >> Anna Tesmanitzki. I >> scoutier I >> and Mr. Paul Montasino II >> and Trisha Kendall. I thank you Paul for sticking with us all this time. Drive safely home. >> Yeah, Paul, thank you. That's the type of uh leadership that goes towards being a >> chair. Chair >> chair. >> Oh, did he sign off? Oh, >> I did it. Sorry, I was quick on the trigger. >> I like that though.
