Environmental Bond Bill earmark for the proposed LHS-Community Center Connector. • Mike attended the Battle Road Scenic Byway meeting. No projects to update. New Business: • Fairland Street trail opportunity - Mark Barons has purchased 6 acres off Fairland St, above Lincoln St, and plans to put in a housing development. He intends to put a walking path con- necting to 185 Lincoln and would like to connect to the ACROSS system. He will do all the work, but would like a letter of support from GCC as he goes before the Planning Board. We would want a formal easement for ACROSS access, and an understanding that the homeowners association would take care of trail maintenance. Keith will draft a letter, and will also arrange a site visit for interested GCC members. • Concord Ave Land Management Plan - Keith had an email from a woman interested in our plans for that area - she had accessed meeting minutes from April 2018. He responded and connected her with Alex Dohanme who has e-mailed her. 1 haveeme.4 h� but not heard back. Alexi will reach out again. It would be good to get Kate McCrary and Mary Rose Scoz- zafava (working on Conservation Restrictions with CLC) involved. Alex twill try to set up a site visit, and be in touch with the Conservation Dept. • Susan got photos for the next brochure, and funding request (PIR) has been submitted to Carol Kowalski for the next printing. If approved, funds will be available July 1, 2019. Pending Items: • We had a brief discussion about which route to tackle next. Options put forward: Wright Farm, Blossomcrest/Hayden Woods, Daisy Wilson Meadow, Brookhaven. Probably time to meet with Karen again and update the priority spreadsheet.
