Visitor Center Update— Don Millis (Millis Whitaker Architects) Don informed the committee of the latest project status which included the Massachusetts Architectural Access Board (MAAB) approval of the Limited Use/Limited Access Elevator, HDC Hearing scheduled for early January 2019 and 50% CD Pricing for early January 2019. The project budget is $4,575,000 (hard costs & soft costs), and the bidding period is scheduled February— March 2019. Construction is slated for May— March 2019. • Interior layout was reviewed and Historic District Guidelines were discussed. • The use of an electronic display versus a bulletin board, and a kiosk with built in iPads to look up area information were discussed. Content for the electronics would have to be developed. • Exterior wall materials, lighting, roofing materials and colors were discussed. Other exterior components such as bike racks, trash cans, benches & cameras will keep the same style as already seen around town. A proposed gas duct vent on the exterior of the east side of the building for an Energy Recovery Unit (ERU) system was discussed. The gas system would only be used during a power outage and is being proposed to make the building resilient. Gas currently exists on the property. Further discussion is needed regarding use of gas backup with the Board of Selectman. Don discussed how the exhibit fabrications will take place. This is a large part of the project consisting of display cases, cabinets, graphic panels, etc.; with an Exhibit Manufacturer working on this. • Furniture package and ways of procuring FF&E's were discussed. • Construction concerns brought up were the possibility of work at the Battle Green area being done at the same time, and landscaping at the Visitor Center site in the early spring. DPW: Some of the Battle area pathways will be put on hold to allow for matching the walkways with the Visitor Center. 201 BEDFORD STREET 9 LEXINGTON, MASSACHUSETTS 02420
