Dear Commission Members, At the end of last night’s meeting Haig brought
forward the issue of the Loeb Fellowship grant funds and selecting a Loeb
scholar to fulfill CHPAC’s obligation to that Grant. As Haig
mentioned this grant needs to be allocated by the end of June. Initially
the plan was to bring someone in to help the commission and town create a
foundation. That did not exactly pan out, though the foundation idea is
still in the back of the minds of Counsel. Then Haig and I discussed
using the funds to bring in a scholar(s) to address the issue of arts and
economic development at a forum. While I am still working on developing
such a program for the future, this will not take place before June. I
would like to invite two-three commission members to volunteer to serve on a sub-committee
with Haig to consider Loeb fellowship options and make a decision on how and on
whom to expend the funds. I would hope that this could be a one time
meeting where a final decision could be made and then brought forward to the
commission in at the February meeting. Once a decision is made there will
be more planning and decisions about logistic and marketing the lecture/workshop
etc. Ideally it would be good if the sub-committee members had a
familiarity with the Loeb Fellowship history, but anyone interested in serving
is certainly welcome. If you are interested in serving on this committee,
please e-mail Haig and let him know of your interest. Please copy me on
the e-mails. I am thanking you in advance for your
assistance. jy
