Town of Lexington Lexington Center Committee Minutes for the meeting of February 8th, 2024, held in the Parker Room, Town Office Building, Lexington Massachusetts beginning about 8:30 am. Members present: Richard Brown, Upasna Chhabra, Katherine Huang, Frederic Johnson, Jeffrey Lyon, Pamela Lyons, Innessa Manning, Jerold Michelson (Chair), Pamela Shadley Liaisons: Doug Lucente, Select Board, Sandra Shaw, Council on Aging, Lorraine Welsh, Economic Development Coordinator, Captain Chris Barry, Lexington Police Department, Dave Pinsonneault, Dept. of Public Works, John Livsey, Town Engineer, Abby McCabe, Planning Director Guests: Susan Barrett, Transportation Manager, Anne Lee, Lexington Historical Society, Lin Jensen We began with the economic development update with Lorraine Welsh: Tatte Café Bakery is coming into the Bertucci’s space with an anticipated October, 2024 opening. Question about how the rear entrance will be handled. Nothing yet on the Signature Stationer, Sanyo and Bulpan spaces. Fred asked if there was a way to get art into the Signature windows. It would not necessarily have to be art. Other suggestions include a display regarding Lexington. Susan Barrett suggested Lexington transportation images. Dave Pinsonneault took us through the DPW update: the holiday lights are coming down right after Valentines Day. DPW is working on the new issue of “the banner arms are stationary” which means some banners don’t fit. The pre-streetscape banners were adjustable. So it goes. The 250th monument will be installed at the lower Belfrey area. Artists have been winnowed down to the final five. Winner should be chosen by April. The Battle Green punch list is going forward. DPW has engaged a new contractor to power wash the bricks. Fred inquired if there was anything we could do about the CVS lot, suggesting that we either move it forward or at least do a quick resurfacing before 2025.
