FY23 PIR request update. Keith reported that funding for the next edition of the <br /> brochure has been included in the town budget that will come before Town <br /> Meeting in March. If approved, funds would be available as of July 1, 2022. <br /> There are very few of the prior edition remaining — anyone with stock should <br /> return it to Bob's shed. Broad agreement that the printed maps are very valuable <br /> and best made available in the map boxes along the routes. Susan Kenyon will <br /> convene a subgroup in the next few weeks to coordinate the design/production of <br /> the new edition. Keith, Bobak and Eileen will participate, and Alex can help with <br /> review. Keith will contact a designer to join the group. Related to the brochure, <br /> Keith will arrange a Zoom meeting to include Mike, Susan, Bobak and Kathy <br /> Santos (webmaster) to coordinate on the best approach to the QR code on maps <br /> and signage that links to the GCC's website. We agreed that having a "you are <br /> here" feature is important. <br /> Leadership for Spring CLC walks. Keith encouraged committee members to <br /> consider leading CLC walks this spring, particularly one along route N. Let Keith <br /> know if you are interested. <br /> March 26 Bike/Ped Safety Open House tabling opportunity. Keith and Peggy will <br /> participate in this event with whatever brochures may be available. Will also see <br /> if copies of the map portion can be made. There will be a similar opportunity at <br /> Discovery Day in May. Alex suggested we consider outlining a path from the <br /> table to the nearest wayfinding map along the bikeway in the center. <br /> WalkMassachusetts Network. Keith and Peggy mentioned the <br /> existence/formation of a walking network with other towns in the area. Peggy has <br /> joined the group to represent GCC. <br /> Ongoing Business <br /> Bike/Ped Plan funding update. Keith reported that $65K has been included in the <br /> FY23 town budget heading to Town Meeting in March. With $15K Sheila Page <br /> has in hand, there should be $80k available to hire a consultant to prepare the <br /> Bike/Ped plan. Keith and Peggy drafted GCC statement of support that was sent <br /> to members prior to the meeting. Suggested upgrades should be sent to Keith <br /> and Peggy and a new draft will be reviewed at the next meeting. The Bicycle <br /> Advisory Committee is working on one as well and Sustainable Lexington may <br /> also weigh in. These statements are intended to inform any discussion that might <br /> arise at Town Meeting and later when the Town seeks a contractor. <br /> Transportation Safety Group report. Peggy is representing the GCC on this group <br /> which meets monthly to coordinate safety work across various town department. <br /> Peggy will sound out the TSG on the use of paint on streets along routes with no <br /> sidewalks and limited visibility e.g., North St between Carl Rd and the entrance to <br /> Willards Woods. <br />
