Conte Bikes and public policy considerations supporting moving the stop to 1666. <br />There was also lengthy consideration of just how many parking spaces are <br />affected. If the bus stop remains in front of Conte Bikes a total of four parking <br />spaces will be used. If the stop is moved to 1666 then a total of three parking <br />spaces will be used, leaving one parking space in front of 1666. OR looking at the <br />parking spaces as they exist today – two additional parking spaces will be <br />removed if the bus stop remains in front of Conte Bikes. <br />The Center Committee voted seven to zero to recommend to the Select Board <br />moving the bus stop to 1666 Mass Ave with the goal to place the stop as far <br />west on Mass Ave as possible (still in front of 1666) under MBTA guidelines. <br />Abby McCabe gave a brief update on Center zoning issues. It might be time for the <br />signage by-laws to be reviewed as the current by-laws are very constraining. <br />Sandwich board signs are not ok (there was an exemption during Covid) except for <br />events – these requests go through the Town Manager. The Center usage table <br />also needs updating. Jerry asked that anyone interested in participating in a <br />signage or usage subcommittee please let him know. <br />Sandhya gave us the economic development update: Galary House is coming in <br />with an opening ceremony at 5:30 on the 27th. A bakery is coming into the <br />LaDolda space. Karma has changed architects but is moving forward. Jerry noted <br />there is a monument or memorial near Belfrey Park in the discussion phase for <br />the 250th. And the LexSeeHer monument will begin construction soon. <br />Upasna updated us on ArtWalk – art will be coming into the Center business <br />windows (including 1666) in the first week of October. This will also be the first <br />year for ArtWalk in the CVS windows. The annual celebration will take place on <br />October 13th. Jerry called our attention to the current display in the CVS windows <br />illustrating Lexington Center history. <br />The Center Committee voted six to zero to approve the minutes of the August, <br />2023 meeting. <br />The Lexington Retailers Association will have their annual Halloween event on <br />Tuesday, October 31st . And we have a vacancy commencing October 1st.
