Current Business Updates: • Drummer Boy trail easement (Bob /Stew) — still w/ Drummer Boy board • Highland Ave/Pelham Road (Bob) — Bob & Stew went to Registry of Deeds & confirmed abutters. They found no trail easements, but no denial of access. John Livsey determines that this gives the Town tacit access to the property as it is Town land. Bob et al will keep working with abutters to reach agreement. • Wood Street trail improvement (Paul) — Paul absent, no update • Action Item — Bob — Highland/Pelham follow -up 4. New Business: Community Carbon Challenge (Rick) — In Rick's absence Peggy explained the idea. Each Lexington citizen would pledge to drive 300 miles fewer in a year (to coincide with Lexington's tercentenary), encouraging walking & biking. We discussed having an ACROSS Lexington map available on the Town website. People outside the GCC have been asking for it. Our advertising is working! Stew suggested working through Deb Mauger to get that done. Howie mentioned that York Harbor, ME, has a very good town signage system that might be worth looking at as we consider our signage in conjunction with Bikeway signage and other Town needs. Action Items: Alex — contact Virginia Johnson Bob — Highland/Pelham follow -up Next Meeting: May 21, 4:30 -6 pm, Legion Room, Cary Hall Remaining 2012 Meeting Dates: 4:30 — 6 pm, Legion Room, Cary Hall May 21 June 25 July 23 September 24 October 22 November 26 December 17 Future Agenda Items: • Fall — Develop revised West Lexington Greenway plan.
