Holyoke CPA committee corrects minutes, reelects chair, vice chair and secretary
Summary
The Holyoke Community Preservation Act (CPA) Committee approved a correction to the meeting minutes and unanimously reelected Jay Ferreira as chair, Sarah as vice chair and Mary as secretary.
The Holyoke Community Preservation Act Committee approved a correction to previously circulated meeting minutes and unanimously reelected officers for a one‑year term.
Committee members voted to amend the minutes to reflect that the budget under discussion is fiscal year 2025 (funded by revenue from fiscal 2024) and then approved the corrected minutes by roll call.
The committee then elected officers. Meg nominated Jay Ferreira for chair; Ferreira said he "would absolutely be willing" to continue in the role and invited feedback on committee processes. The committee approved Ferreira as chair by unanimous roll call. Michael nominated Sarah for vice chair; after discussion the committee voted unanimously to install Sarah as vice chair. Members also voted unanimously to reappoint Mary as secretary for another year; Mary said she was willing to serve another term while the committee confirms whether term‑limit language applies.
The committee discussed officers' responsibilities and encouraged members to offer feedback on committee processes going forward. The votes were taken by roll call and recorded as unanimous.
