Town of Lexington <br /> <br /> PLANNING BOARD <br /> Charles Hornig, Chair 1625 Massachusetts Avenue <br /> Nancy Corcoran-Ronchetti,Vice Chair Lexington, MA 02420 <br /> Timothy Dunn,Clerk Tel(781)862-0500 Ext. 84560 <br /> Richard L.CanaIe Facsimile(781)861-2748 <br /> Ginna Johnson planning@lexingtonma.gov <br /> REPORT TO THE 2015 ANNUAL TOWN MEETING <br /> ARTICLE 2 <br /> The Planning Board has many and varied responsibilities. The Town's Annual Report <br /> contains a complete summary of this past year's work. Rather than read the details to you <br /> now, I want to talk about a few of our major work items over the last year and some plans <br /> for the year to come. <br /> Over the last year,the Planning Board and Planning Department made progress on <br /> several major initiatives. <br /> • We adopted new Subdivision Regulations and began drafting new Zoning <br /> Regulations. These include new street standards developed in coordination with <br /> the Engineering Division and the Fire Department. <br /> • More visibly, we have started the process of proposing substantive changes to the <br /> Zoning Bylaw identified during our recodification effort. The first of these will <br /> come before you later tonight, but we expect to continue proposing changes for <br /> some time to come. <br /> • We participated in the ongoing Center Streetscape project,part of which will <br /> come to this Town Meeting for funding under Article 11(a). This project <br /> establishes a framework for streetscape improvements in the Center to revitalize <br /> the aging landscape and infrastructure while focusing on safety for all travel <br /> modes. <br /> • We worked with the interdepartmental Parking Management Group to develop <br /> strategies to deal with parking in Lexington Center. Phase 1 of these changes will <br /> come before this Town Meeting under Article 11(q). <br /> • We worked with the Economic Development Director to enhance Lexington's <br /> competitive position in attracting and maintaining businesses. This includes <br /> providing new infrastructure on Hartwell Avenue, where a sidewalk has already <br /> been installed and additional substantial improvements will come to this Town <br />
