Mr. Bitsko also recused himself as he is working on a project with the Arlington Conservation Commission. Danielle Desilets, representative from Kyle Zick Landscape Architecture, presented before the Commission and was joined by Joseph Connelly, Director of the Town of Arlington Parks and Recreation Commission, Rebecca Weissman and Mickey Marcus, Environmental Consultants with SWCA, and Denise Cameron and Bradley Mustain, Civil Engineers with Woodard and Curran. Questions from the Commission: — How much of the system is in Lexington? — It appears that the trail north of the beach is being relocated away from the Reservoir, is this correct? — Why can't the trail be moved perhaps 10 feet away to allow for re-vegetation of existing areas and removal of invasive species? There are many areas where the trees are not an issue. Responses from the Applicant: — None of the parking is in Lexington. Only part of the beach area and trail are in Lexington — The trail is shifting mostly on the Lexington side, a couple of feet upland to minimize the impact to the existing trees. Want to shift the trail material away from the bank. — There is a cost-balance because we are working with existing trails. Looking at that where we can as much as possible.
