<br />Town of Lexington <br />Commission on Disability <br />Victoria Buckley, Chair <br />Commission on Disability <br />C/o 18 Bates Road <br />Lexington, MA 02421 <br />January 10, 2013 <br />Anna Monaco, Principal <br />Jonas Clarke Middle School <br />17 Stedman Road <br />Lexington, MA 02421 <br /> RE: Clarke Elevator <br />Dear Principal Monaco, <br /> The Lexington Commission on Disability has recently reviewed the audit study <br />completed on the public buildings in Lexington summarizing the technical deficiencies of each <br />facility that do not meet the ADA accessibility standards. We have prioritized what we see as <br />the most important projects to propose as features of a five-year plan to correct the problems. <br />We have decided that the most critical need is the elevator at Clarke Middle School. Since this is <br />a large and expensive project, we would first like to see a study done to carefully and <br />thoughtfully plan what should be done. <br /> The Commission would like your support for us to proceed with our proposal for the <br />implementation of this study. We value your guidance and input as we work together to resolve <br />this crucial access issue for students. We look forward to working closely with you and your <br />staff as well as with Pat Goddard, Dr. Ash, Linda Chase, the School Committee, and members of <br />Lexington SEPAC, as we are very committed to seeing this project happen. <br /> Please contact me with any questions you may have using either my email address <br />vbuckley@rcn.com or my cell phone 617-997-5472. Thank you. <br />Sincerely, <br /> Victoria Buckley <br />Cc: Pat Goddard, Director of Public Facilities <br /> Linda Chase, Director of Student Services, Lexington Public Schools <br /> Dr. Paul Ash, Superintendent of Schools <br /> Margaret Coppe, Chair, Lexington School Committee <br /> Elizabeth Billings-Fouhy, Director, Lexington SEPAC <br />1625 MASSACHUSETTS AVENUE • LEXINGTON, MASSACHUSETTS 02420 <br />
