<br />Town of Lexington <br />Commission on Disability <br />Victoria Buckley, Chair <br /> November 9, 2014 <br />Thomas Wood <br />JA Wood Management LLC <br />594 Marrett Road – Suite 21 <br />Lexington, MA 02421 <br />Dear Mr. Wood, <br /> At the November 6, 2014 meeting of the Commission on Disability, we <br />discussed the building known as Harrington Park, located at 394 Lowell Street, <br />Lexington. This building initially came to our attention when a variance was <br />requested for a second floor bathroom in one of the condominiums. As a <br />Commission, we remain concerned that the entire complex is not accessible. We <br />would like to see a plan of how to make the entire complex accessible in terms of <br />second floors and entryways. <br /> You have indicated in your response to me that the Board of Trustees is <br />planning to discuss the accessibility at their annual meeting on May 5, 2015. The <br />Commission accepts this proposal provided that you summarize the results of that <br />discussion in a written plan submitted to us by June 1, 2015. <br /> We also would like to know in writing by January 1, 2015, the intentions of <br />the new owners of the second floor condominium (RDTEU - Research, <br />Development & Tech. Employees Union) for usage of the space, especially <br />concerning whether they intend to run public meetings or public services there. <br /> Thank your for your assistance in this matter. <br />Sincerely, <br /> Victoria Buckley <br /> Chair, Commission on Disability <br />Cc: Thomas Hopkins, Director, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Department of Public <br />Safety, Architectural Access Board, One Ashburton Place, Room 1310, Boston, MA 02198- <br />1618 <br /> Frederick J. Lonardo, Building Commissioner, Community Development Department, <br />1625 Massachusetts Avenue, Lexington, MA 02420 <br />1625 MASSACHUSETTS AVENUE • LEXINGTON, MASSACHUSETTS 02420 <br />
