Very truly aours, <br />L1,XTIZGTOII PLAYN7NG BOARD <br />b7 Thomas S. Grindle, Chairman <br />December 2 6, 1957 <br />Mr. Mark I3ortman, Chairman <br />Boston National Historic Sites Commission <br />Rm.14001 Post Office & Courthouse <br />Boston ?, Massachu etts <br />Dear Mr. Bortman: <br />The Lexington Planning Board was pleased to meet <br />with ;rou and a representative of the Commission on Nov- <br />ember 20, 1957 and hear a report of the Commission's <br />work and its proposal to recommend to the Congress that <br />there be created a National Historic Park to be located <br />partly within the Town of Lexington. The project is be- <br />ing included in Lexington's long range development plan <br />which the Planning Board is preparing for the Town. The <br />Board recosnizes, however, that there are many more as- <br />pects to a project of this nature than can be planned <br />and developed adequately by a municipal agency. It is <br />with understanding, therefore, that., the Board gives its <br />unqualified endorsement to the National Historic Park <br />proposal for the preservation of the now remaining por- <br />tion of the Battle Road of April 19, 1775. <br />Sincerely yours, <br />LEXINGTON PLANNTNG BOARD <br />by Thomas S. Grindle, Chairman <br />J <br />
