The motion carried (2-0), and the meeting adjourned to Executive Session.
Return to Open session at 7:46 a.m.
The group discussed whether or not the Emergency Manual is a public document. The general
consensus was that the Entertainment License Rules and Regulations document is public, but that
the Emergency Manual, given the confidential nature of the material contained therein, is not
public. Mr. Kozlowski stated that he would like to have the entire Board of Selectmen have an
opportunity to review it, and therefore, that review would have to be done in Executive Session.
All agreed that the final documents should be prepared and forwarded to the Board for its
consideration.
Mr. Montgomery stated that he would prefer to not reconvene the subcommittee in order to make
revisions to the Emergency Manual, as he is looking for the process to be more cost effective.
He believes that the Manual has provisions that may not be appropriate for every event. Mr.
Ross replied that he believes that everyone involved is sensitive to the costs associated with
complying with the terms of the Manual and would work with Mr. Montgomery.
Mr. Annino made a Motion to recommend approval of the License and Manual to the Board of
Selectmen. The Motion was seconded by Mr. Kozlowski and the Motion unanimously carried in
a 2-0 vote of the Subcommittee.
Mr. Ross asked that a draft of these minutes be presented to the Board of Selectmen, along with
the draft License and Manual.
The Chiefs and Mr. Montgomery tentatively scheduled April 9th or 10th to meet at the Xfinity
Center to continue preparations.
Mr. Kozlowski made a motion to Adjourn, which was seconded by Mr. Annino, Motion passed
2-0. The meeting adjourned at 7:57 a.m.

Per you letter of request dated July 26, 2017, 1 am presenting the Draft Minutes of the Xfinity Center
Entertainment License Subcommittee Meeting from March 28, 2014.
By completing a search of my predecessor's files I determined for open session minutes of the Xfinity
Center Entertainment License Subcommittee Meeting March 28, 2014 it appears the Town Manager,
Mr. Ross, requested that the draft minutes and the draft License and Manual be presented to the Board
of Selectmen. I believe that the draft minutes were never approved.
Thank you,
