PLANNING BOARD MINUTES MEETING OF JANUARY 20, 2010 A regular meeting of the Lexington Planning Board was held in Estabrook Hall, Cary Memorial Building, and called to order at 7:35 p.m. by Chairman Zurlo with members Canale, Galaitsis, Hornig, Manz, and planning staff McCall-Taylor, Henry and Kaufman present. ******************************ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS*************************** Mr. Canale recused himself from consideration of the Lexington Technology Park application since he was an abutter to an abutter for the tract as a whole. 200 Patriot Drive Lexington Technology Park, Special Permit: Robert Buckley and Ethan Solomon of Reimer and Braunstein, Peter Corbett of Goulston and Storrs, John Hart and Brian Lawlor of SMMA were present. Mr. Buckley said that they would be submitting a Definitive Site Development and Use Plan (DSDUP) within the next few weeks, but wanted to start a dialogue. They have decided to file the Special permit with Site Plan Review with the Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) in advance of the DSDUP even though it cannot be acted upon by the Board until they file the DSDUP. Mr. Hart gave a brief overview of the proposal to update the Planning Board on the DSDUP that will be submitted to the ZBA and govern the entire CD-10 campus. Board Comments:  Was there any direct line of sight from the residents on Shade Street? Will any lights be emitted from the building? There will be automatic shades on the windows.  Was a noise study done? Will the Noise Advisory Committee review the report? Yes it was in the booklet.  What does 64% transmission of light generated from building mean? Will get back on that. Will there be additional buffering and further landscaping done to buffer Shade Street? Yes, additional landscape will be provided. Like the design but seems incompatible with Building 100; how will it fit? Will you need all the parking approved in the plan, which had 300 surface parking spaces? It will be shown in the DSDUP.  Would like to see all the buildings, are the shades tied to the building systems? Yes the shades have to go down by 8:00 pm.  There was a meeting with DAC, were there any comments? Yes, they like it and are meeting again with them.  The 64% was probably thermal not transmission. Want comments on all metallic finishes next
