Minutes for the Meeting of December 10, 2008 Page 3 Management Association, and shuttle services. Consider the use of measurable reduction incentives. ?? Sustainable development - would it be done by right or by special permit? ?? Concern with the traffic flow down Wood Street. Although traffic is a necessary evil look at non- monetary ways to reduce traffic on the side streets to address concerns for the safety of the residents. Ms. Manz said mitigation monies were not to discourage development, but rather to mitigate the difficulties arising from development. Mr. Galaitsis said that past promises were not effective. He would prefer to see contemplated mitigation measures implemented and demonstrated to be effective before the current conditions were worsened further. ****************************REGIONAL INTERTOWN ISSUES*************************** Mr. Canale said that Thursday, December 18, 2008 there will be a HATS Meeting in the Lincoln Town Office Building at 7:30 p.m., which focuses on parking and zoning. *****************************APPROVAL NOT REQUIRED****************************** 150, 168 and 170 East Street: On a motion duly made and seconded, it was voted to endorse the plan entitled “Plan of Land in Lexington, MA Middlesex County”, dated December 2, 2008, prepared and certified by Kevin E.
