<br />preparing his presentation on Article 15, he had noted there are some areas in

<br />appear on the HUD flood boundary map. A change in the proposed motion was sug-
<br />gested to add the words "or on any plan submitted with an application to the
<br />Town." It was agreed that change should be included.
<br />On the motion of Mr. Sorensen, seconded by Mrs. Uhrig, it was voted 4-0 to make a

<br />Sorensen, seconded by Mr. Cripps, it was voted 4-0 to recommend to the Town
<br />Meeting the amendment be adopted and to approve the report as corrected.
<br />79. Article 17, Health Hazards: On the motion of Mr. Sorensen, seconded by Mr.
<br />Cripps, it was voted 4-0 to recommend to the Town Meeting that to the extent
<br />research or production in recombinant DNA is permitted, it should be limited to
<br />the CR, CM and CH districts, and to not make a recommendation on the containment
<br />levels for recombinant DNA research for which others, such as the Board of
<br />Health, are better equipped to advise, and to approve the report as written.
<br />80. Article 18, CD, Concord Avenue: The draft report on this article was
<br />corrected. On the motion of Mr. Cripps, seconded by Mrs. Uhrig, it was voted
<br />3-1, with Mr. Sorensen opposed, to recommend to the Town Meeting that the amend-
<br />ment be approved and to approve the report as corrected. As Mrs. Flemings had
<br />previously said she was in favor of the rezoning, it was agreed that if she
<br />wanted to be recorded in favor of the amendment, that could be done at a subse-
<br />quent meeting.
<br />81. Article 19, CD, 16 Hayden Avenue: Mrs. Uhrig disqualified herself from the
<br />discussion or action on this amendment. On the motion of Mr. Cripps, seconded by
<br />Mrs. Smith, it was voted 3-0, with Mrs. Uhrig abstaining, to recommend to the
<br />Town Meeting the amendment be approved and to approve the report as written.
<br />82. Article 20, RD, 188 Lowell Street: On the motion of Mr. Sorensen, seconded
<br />by Mrs. Uhrig, it was voted 3-1, with Mr. Cripps opposed, to recommend against
<br />the proposed amendment because: the narrowness of the site makes transition to
<br />adjoining properties difficult, there is an undue concentration of housing for
<br />elderly persons in that neighborhood already, the proposal does not provide a
<br />high enough percentage of affordable housing in accordance with the Planning
<br />Board's long-standing policy, and to approve the report as written.
