?? Mike said there are volunteer trail construction opportunities on almost every weekend this summer as well as a few small weekday projects. ?? Friends of Arlington Great Meadows will hold a meeting at Follen Church Tuesday, July 14, 7:00 p.m. ?? Terry Gleason reported that Bedford wants to put down stone dust on the Bikeway extension. He would like to convince his town that the paved Bikeway has not negatively impacted conservation land in Lexington and requested a letter from the Conservation Committee regarding the condition of conservation lands (vandalism, parties, dumping) and the impacts of the Bikeway. Mike agreed to write such a letter. Bikeway Stewards : Bob walked the entire length and reported that the two worst areas are behind Bermans, (litter, rubble, and erosion) and behind the Lexington Fire Department (Japanese Knot Weed). The path is hopelessly overgrown and beyond the scope of volunteers. We should remind the DPW to do major brush cut back. CPA funds may be available to help eradicate invasive species. FoLB Wearing Apparel : Marita reported that reflective vests from Ben Meadows are $25 each. Perhaps we can borrow some for our next bike path clean up. She reminded members that shirts with the Minuteman logo from Tri- con are $20. ($5 if you supply your own shirt). Marita offered to make vests. Enthusiasm was mixed; reflective quality was an issue. Stew mentioned a company, which sells T-shirts directly online; we supply the artwork and customers order directly from the web site. The meeting was adjourned at 9:30 p.m. Information Distributed : ?? Agenda for meeting ?? Draft minutes from June11, 2009 ?? Goals for striping developed by Jerry Van Hook and Bob Hausslein.
