Sidewalk Sub-committee
Minutes of Meeting
Monday, January 9, 2005
Present: Lisa Baci, Marianne Lazarus, Francine Stieglitz, Wayne Brooks, Jeanne Krieger
Next Meeting: Monday January 23, noon, Selectmen’s Conference Room
Discussion concerned developing a ‘plan’ for Walking in Lexington predicated on
Marianne’s brain dump and Lisa’s suggestions.
General outline of plan
Current state – Jeanne will provide outline prior to next meeting
Gaps in current state (what needs changing)
Physical plan deficiencies –Where can one not walk safely and enjoyable
Gaps in rules, regulations and standards
Gaps in practices
Recommended fixes
The purpose of the plan is not to fix everything, but to describe the series of programs
that ultimately will make walking in Lexington accessible and desirable to more
residents.
We will identify at the next meeting what we need to include in the gap section so that we
can ask for help from the greater committee in researching best practices.
