ADA Committee Has Dispute Over Minutes, Election
By Sabrina DammsiBerkshires Staff
DALTON, Mass. — The Americans with Disabilities Act committee elected Patrick Pettit as chair and John Curro as vice chair following a heated discussion surrounding the meeting minutes during its most recent meeting.
The dispute stemmed from the decision to table the election of officers during the April 23 meeting. That decision was made without a motion by a committee member or an official vote from the committee.
During the April meeting, ADA coordinator Alyssa Maschino recommended that the agenda item be tabled as Pettit was absent but previously expressed an interest in being chair.
"I originally had put elect chair and vice chair on [the agenda,] but without Pat Pettit here, as he wanted to run for one of these two, I feel like perhaps we should table it. I am not OK with trying to make points on his behalf or anyone else," Maschino said.
Committee member Lynn Clements agreed with Maschino but an official vote did not take place.
At the May meeting, committee member Rachel Branch recommended amending the April 23 meeting minutes to include the following: "The ADA Coordinator tabled the agenda item on the election of chair and vice chair without a motion from an ADA committee member, without a discussion, and without a vote."
The approved minutes said the agenda item to elect the chair and vice chair was "tabled until all members are present. Interest from P.Pettit and R.Branch."
