The Plan <br />reviews the existing Rules and Regulations governing activities on the Battle Green and <br />makes recommendations for revising these rules to recognize the expanded definition of <br />the Battle Green area and to offer changes that clarify appropriate uses and their <br />enforcement. <br /> <br />All of the recommendations in this Master Plan will require the approval of the Board of <br />Selectmen, the citizens of Lexington (through its adoption at Town Meeting), and the <br />design approval of the Historic Districts Commission. By enhancing the beauty and <br />meaning of this sacred space, reinforcing its symbolic and spiritual values, unifying its <br />vocabulary, and enforcing its appropriate use, the Battle Green area can claim its rightful <br />place as one of our most important national shrines where American ideals and our <br />definition of freedom were created. <br /> <br />п­¬ Ü»­·¹²­ ÔÔÝ Ð¿¹» ì <br /> <br /> <br />
