Corr, Jr. for a variance tos ubdivide <br />land bounded by Weston and Lincoln Streets and <br />Route 128 into six lots, none of which would con- <br />form with the minimum requirements of the zoning <br />by-law. The proposed lots were shown on a plan <br />previously left at the Planning Board office by <br />' Lt. Corr, said plan being entitled "Plan of Pro- <br />posed Lots in Lexington Mass.", dated Mar. 17, <br />1958, Scale: 1" = 401, Miller and Nylander, C.E.'s <br />and Surveyors.- Noting that each proposed lot was <br />larger than those then fronting on Shade, Weston, <br />and Lincoln Streets, it was decided to take no <br />action on the petition to be heard. However,wi_th <br />regard to the discussion which the Board held with <br />the Selectmen at their March 25,1958 meeting, the <br />Planning Board discussed various possibilities of <br />locating across the Corr land a road from Weston <br />to Lincoln Street for the purpose of providing a <br />future means of access from`the proposed regional <br />shopping center through the Hayden land. <br />At 8:05 p.m. Lt. Corr and Mr. Robert Cataldo <br />met the Board, they wishing to know if the Planning <br />Board had any objections to the granting of a <br />variance for subdividing the land shown on the plan <br />described above. At this time they were informed <br />of the Planning Board's interest in acquiring for <br />the Town an option to purchase land for a road <br />across their property, the possible need for said <br />road being stated above. <br />Lt.
