The Article failed to pass Special Town Meeting the night but a Town Meeting <br /> member has requested reconsideration of the Article, expected to come to the floor during this <br /> evening's session. <br /> Ms. Hai recused herself from the discussion as she is a member of the Belmont Country Club, <br /> seller of the property. <br /> The proposed amendments include: <br /> • Section 3 will be divided into Section A and Section B. In Section A, National <br /> Development proposes to increase by 3 the number of affordable units; Section B would <br /> provide 6 moderate income units that will be offered to eligible applicants at 67% of the <br /> market rate unit. <br /> • Section 4 would increase the amount of the one-time payment to the Town for emergency <br /> response services from $150,000 to $250,000. <br /> • Section 5 would be amended so that the developer would engage a third-party <br /> sustainability audit to evaluate all aspects of the building and building systems, including <br /> the feasibility of using alternative energy sources and solar readiness. Sustainable <br /> Lexington would be involved in the reviewing the consultant's audit findings. <br /> All other aspects of the MOU would remain the same. <br /> 2018 STM-1 Articles - Positions/Discussion <br />
