Minutes of the Lexington Capital Expenditures Committee (CEC) Meeting <br />November 8, 2016 <br />Committee was that the project should proceed as planned, not be postponed, and <br />can be done over the summer. <br /> #1009 Munroe School Window Restoration: It is anticipated that the Town would pay <br />for this project, if recommended by the Community Preservation Committee and <br />then approved by Town Meeting, without a reimbursement from the Munroe Center <br />for the Arts. <br /> #1022 LCP: Using a handout, Mr. Hurley reviewed the options for accommodating <br />the LCP program that is currently accommodated on the Harrington site. Last night, <br />the SC identified the property at 20 Pelham Road as its first choice, but it is not <br />known at this time whether the Town has negotiated a purchase of this property, and <br />the estimated purchase price and renovation costs are of concern. There are three <br />alternative reconfigurations for retaining it at the Harrington site. <br />Mr. Cole departed at 9:25 .. <br />AM <br /> #1034 Purchase Parking Lot for Community Center: When the Town purchased <br />what is now the Lexington Community Center (LexCC), the Scottish Rite retained all <br />of the existing parking area not included in the purchase, while providing the Town <br />an easement to use that space for overflow parking for LexCC if doing so didnÓt <br />adversely affect the parking needed by the Scottish Rite. Subsequently, the Scottish <br />Rite reports that it spent $400,000 to create an additional parking area on its own <br />property. Scottish Rite is now asking the Town to purchase that new parking area <br />that it reports is used almost exclusively by LexCC patrons. This Committee <br />questioned whether the purchase was needed if the easement already provided the <br />Town with the conditional use of that new parking area. <br />Approval of Minutes: <br />Mr. Kanter presented the Draft #2 Minutes of the CEC Meeting, October 25, 2016.
