Ad Hoc Stone Building Feasibility/Reuse Committee RECEIVED Town of Lexington, MA 2021 20 11Mov, 0,�V Ipii7"i TOWN CLERK October 20, 2021 LEXINGTON MA MINUTES Attending: Cristina Burwell, Jeff Howry, Mark Manasas, Meg Muckenhoupt (Appropriations Comm. Liaison), Melinda Nasardinov, Paul Smyke, Carolyn Goldstein (left 8:30), Jaclyn Anderson , Anne Grady, Doug Lucente (Select Board Liaison) Absent: Lester Savage, Claire Feingold Thoryn (Cary Library Trustees Liaison) Guests: Elaine Ashton, Stephanie Hsu Recording Secretary: Cristina Burwell The meeting began at 7:33 with an online Roll Call & Reading of Statement on Use of Virtual Meetings. Minutes for 10/6 were approved unanimously, as motioned by Anne, and seconded by Mark. There were no public comments. OLD BUSINESS Focus Groups Update: • Intercultural Center - a follow up questionnaire will be sent to attendees (after tonight's focus group is over). • History Museum (10/20) - History "stakeholders" were invited to decide on a date which was opened up to the larger community. The goal of this meeting is to explore concepts, not review proposals that have already been presented. Overall feedback is that people are pretty positive and supportive of getting the building back into use, but one of the messages that seems to be repeated is for the SBFRC to provide both a vision, and a vision with detail about what these combined concepts would look like. Doug was asked about possible other groups to tie in with. He agreed about tourism, and added perhaps the business community (per interest in such things as a coffee shop, etc.) perhaps through the Chamber, or educational groups at one of the local universities. It was suggested that before reaching out to universities that first we should have a better understanding of the direction for the building's use to guide which departments to reach out to. 1 of 3
