Her concern was he was asking the Boards and Town Meeting to trust his input without allowing them time to make their own analysis. This amendment should have been provided early enough for the Board and Town Meeting to review the information. The Board Members had no comments or questions. Article 38: Amend Zoning Bylaw and Map – 95-99 Hayden Avenue (128 Spring Street): Mr. Hornig said the Board supported this unanimously and he will present a short summary of the written report and asked if there were any concerns by the Board. Article 39: Amend Zoning Bylaw and Map – 475 Bedford Street: Mr. Hornig asked the Board if they had any issues with the report being presented tonight at Town Meeting on this Article.
