Route H – Permissions have been secured for posts needed for Route H, including permission to install a sign at the Sunaco Station. The management of the office building at the corner of Lincoln St and Marrett Rd has offered to grind the stumps along their parking lot. Bob will take care of DigSafe notification and take the lead on sign installation. Don will coordinate the post installations where needed. Members of the committee will do the necessary trail improvements at Idlewilde. The ACROSS Lexington website needs to be updated. Mike sent an updated map to Susan, who needs to coordinate with Kathy Santos to have it updated on the website. Brochure progress – No new information about this since the last GCC meeting. Carol Kowalski is looking into funds, checking with Carl Valente. It might make sense to combine with Recreation as our trails also fit their mission. Regarding additional signage such as traffic warnings, Bob and Eileen found only 2 locations where warning signs would be useful. The committee will revisit this when more ACROSS routes are completed to assess need. Funding for such signs would be bundled with a request for town property signs. Carol Kowalski is reviewing this with Carol Valente. Strategic Plan review: Keith suggested using the May 22 meeting to review the proposed ACROSS routes to see which one(s) we should tackle next.
