A straw vote was taken on this project, (6-0-3) with three members abstaining until further information was received. 4.Discussion of FY15 Projects Parker Meadow Accessible Trail Design and Construction Project, $34,500 a.Ms. Rice noted that this project was on the Agenda not only because an amended application had been submitted, but because the project had not been formally listed for discussion at the previous CPC meeting when it was discussed. The project application has been amended to a single project (where it had been a recreation and conservation project previously). It remained at the same request of $34,500 for the design phase. In FY16, a Phase 2 request will be submitted for construction funds. There were no members of the public in attendance for the discussion of the project. The Committee voted (9-0) in a straw vote to support the project. b.Pocket Park Project for FY15 Ms. Rice explained that she had talked to Melisa Tintocalis, the Economic Development Director, and that Ms. Tintocalis had stated that she would be postponing the construction phase of this project until FY16. In response to a question from the CPC, Ms. Rice noted that the legal issues related to the project have not yet been worked out a significant reason for the delay. 5.Updates and Member Concerns Ms. Fenollosa reviewed the meeting schedule for the remainder of the year relative to taking final votes on projects. Mr. Cohen will not be able to attend the December meetings and requested that the CPC might take final votes on projects for which there were no amendments needed. Ms. Fenollosa said that final votes will be taken at st the next meeting (November 21) on projects which are in their final form. After a discussion about the Visitor Center project, which may not be approved by the Selectmen until after the warrant is submitted, the Committee agreed it would suffice to make the CPC vote contingent upon BOS approval. Ms. Rice noted that the Needs Assessment Report hearing will probably be held in January or February. The following documents were submitted at the meeting: 1.A letter from the Department of Housing and Community Development, dated October 25, 2013, HILAPP Award for Vynebrooke Village Development (667-2), submitted by Steve Keane, Director of the Lexington Housing Authority. 2.Department of Housing and Community Development, Project Schedule 155065 for Lexington Housing Authority, (667-2), undated.
