French, Town Engineer. <br />Park Area. <br />Plans by Arthur A. Shurtleff showing scheme for <br />marginal roads in the Park area off Waltham Street and in <br />the vicinity of the Pageant grounds were reviewed and met <br />with general favor. <br />H. M. Aldrich was present and stated that the general <br />scheme in so far as it affected his properties was acceptable <br />to him, especially the plan for dual roadway along Vine Brook <br />both east and west of Waltham Street. <br />Wilson Avenue. <br />'rKen appeared J. A. Wilson of Wilson Ave. East <br />Lexington, with C. J. Henrich and two others. Their plea <br />was for the Board to approve an amendment to the Zoning <br />By-law to permit two family houses to be built in the area <br />comprising the J. A. Wilson property of 14J acres lying <br />south easterly from Wilson Avenue to the Arlington town line. <br />It was represented that the property was to be sold, and <br />unless the restrictions were removed to serve as an induce- <br />ment to high grade builders, the property would be likely <br />to fall into the hands of parties who would develop it in a <br />manner unfavorable to the town and local interests. <br />After consideration the Board unanimously voted <br />not to favor the desired change in the By-law and the clerk <br />was instructed to draft a letter to J. A. Wilson apprising <br />him of this action. <br />Meeting adjourned at 10.30 P.M. <br />Wm. D. Milne, <br />clerk. <br />
