<br />PLANNING BOARD MINUTES <br />MEETING OF APRIL 14, 2010 <br />A regular meeting of the Lexington Planning Board was held in the Ellen Stone Room, Cary Memorial <br />Hall and called to order at 6:03 p.m. by Chair Greg Zurlo, with members, Charles Hornig, Anthony <br />Galaitsis and Wendy Manz, planning staff Maryann McCall-Taylor, Aaron Henry and Lori Kaufman <br />present. Richard Canale joined the meeting in progress. <br />*************************SUBDIVISION ADMINISTRATION************************* <br />16 Tavern Lane, Definitive Street Construction Plan: Mr. Richard Harrington and Mr. Roy Antonelli <br />were present and discussed Tavern Lane Improvement Plan B, which was based on the site visit of Aaron <br />Henry, John Livsey the Town Engineer and two abutters. The following were proposed improvements as <br />recommended by the Town Engineer: <br /> <br /> Reconfiguration of Tavern Lane to a T-intersection layout; <br /> <br /> Elimination of the existing island; <br /> <br /> Extension of the sidewalk on the eastern side of Elliot Road; <br /> <br /> Installation of a concrete curb with ramp at the end of the sidewalk at Tavern Lane for <br />handicapped accessibility; and <br /> <br /> Reset manholes. <br />Planning Board Comments: <br /> <br /> There was concern about the catch basin set in the slope; the slope would need to be stabilized <br />first and then the basin raised; <br /> <br /> Termination of the sidewalk at the drive - would there be any sidewalk continued after the drive <br />or a crosswalk? Mr. Henry said the Town Engineer said that due to ADA constraints the best <br />option would be to terminate the sidewalk <br /> <br /> Given the constraints this was a good plan. <br />Audience Comments: <br />The audience concerns were about drainage on and off the site, additional blacktop that would be added <br />and traffic impacts of flow and safety for that site. <br /> <br />
