Record of vote as follows: <br /> Duke Bitsko—Aye <br /> Alex Dohan—Aye <br /> Ruth Ladd—Aye <br /> David Langseth—Aye <br /> Holly Samuels —Aye <br /> Phil Hamilton—Aye <br /> 6:44 PM <br /> Discussion and public comment on the draft Wright Farm Management Plan <br /> Mr. Bitsko asked if anyone has considered both not mowing the meadow and also building a <br /> boardwalk. Ms. Carr responded that the back field was targeted as part of the meadow <br /> preservation program and said it would be beneficial to see if the significant wetness becomes a <br /> pattern to decide what approach is necessary and how long a boardwalk would need to be, if <br /> proposed to be built. Mr. Bitsko also asked what type of nest boxes are being proposed and Ms. <br /> Carr responded that bluebird and bat boxes would be appropriate, but will need further <br /> discussions. <br /> Ms. Dohan stated that a monitoring study should be implemented to investigate the water usage <br /> as more foliage begins to grow. <br /> Ms. Samuels asked for clarification on deer browse management on town-owned properties. Ms. <br /> Carr responded that there is currently no deer management allowed on Lexington town <br /> properties. Ms. Samuels commented that brush piles can become scaffolding for invasive vines <br /> and suggests covering the ground with a biodegradable surface before brush piles are established. <br /> Ms. Carol Reynolds asked if there is a plan for accommodating bikers and who is responsible for <br /> trail planning. Ms. Reynolds also requested more transparency to abutters and stewards during <br /> the planning process. Ms. Carr responded that all user types will be taken into consideration <br /> when the greater trail management plan comes into play, and that trail planning will be a <br /> transparent,public process with the outside consultant to gather feedback. <br /> The public comment period will continue to March 4, 2022 and the Commission will vote on the <br /> Land Management Plan at the March 7, 2022 meeting. <br /> Update on 46 Turning Mill Road driveway and sewer connection <br /> Mr. David Santos, owner of 46 Turning Mill Road,provided an update to the Commission <br /> regarding a small section of the driveway and utilities on the adjacent Conservation-owned <br /> property. Mr. Santos' attorney provided documentation that the house and driveway were in <br /> place before the town took ownership of the adjacent lot, and because of this, the town can allow <br /> the utilities under the existing area of encroachment with no further approval process necessary. <br />
