DPW Water Treatment Facility -(PC,JF,GP) – July 16, 2009 
 
Lino Aiello/Michael Argiros – 2182 Washington St (PC,JF,GP) 
Petitioner represented by Atty. Paul Schneiders. Petitioner submitted letter to withdraw 
without prejudice last week. Now would like to reconsider their actions. The Economic 
Development Committee contacted the Board of Selectmen when they heard the 
petitioner was going to withdraw. They feel that this would be a good business, a

water treatment facility might take a lot of time. If you had the support of the abutters 
that would impact this Board. You do not want to withdraw? Mr. Pando stated that at 
the last meeting he challenged them. There are colonial buildings all around, and with 
some talent you could come forward with a design. Mr. Fitzgerald said that when you 
get your architectural plans, Mr. Pando can be of assistance and look them over, keeping 
it in harmony with residential neighborhood. Mr. Aiello asked if he could meet with Mr. 
 not at a public hearing. 
Pando Then, we will do that. Abutter “Gus” Giannacopoulos, 
1A Ponkapoag Way, spoke and said there are a lot of concerns. It has been a frustrating 
process. He would like to point out one thing. When asked if there would be any
