The Board is <br />of the opinion that provision for such a street should be <br />made and agrees that it is entirely reasonable to expect <br />that at least part of the way should lay in what is now the <br />property of the Boston & Maine Railroad. The Board favors <br />a street intersecting Merriam Street with the center line <br />in the boundary of the Goodwin -Railroad property, continuing <br />in a northwesterly direction to intersect with the present <br />northerly boundary of Goodwin Roadp the entrance of the <br />road on the Goodwin estate being moved northwesterly from <br />the point now shown on the Kellaway plan. <br />Mr. Merriam will -contact the Railroad officials to <br />obtain their reactions. <br />Note:- Mr. Merriam reports that he is advised by the <br />Railroad company that the Department of Public <br />Utilities will not permit the company to give land <br />for street purposes.
