SELECT BOARD MEETING
September 27, 2021
A remote participation meeting of the Lexington Select Board was called to order at 6:35 p.m. on
Monday, September 27,2021 via Zoom remote meeting services. Select Board Chair Ms. Hai; Vice Chair
Mr. Lucente; and members Mr.Pato; Ms. Barry; and Mr. Sandeen were present, as well as Mr. Malloy,
Town Manager; Ms. Axte11, Assistant Town Manager; and Ms. Katzenbacic, Executive Clerk.
Ms. Hai stated that the meeting was being conducted via Zoom as posted,with the agenda on the Town's
website. Ms. Hai provided directions to members of the public,watching or listening via the Zoom
application,regarding the procedure for making a public comment. Ms. Hai reminded Board members,
staff, and members of the public about Lexington's Standard of Conduct regarding civil discourse during
Town Government meetings.
Note: The meeting was originally scheduled to enter Executive Session but as there was a question about
applicability, Mr. Malloy wi11 instead ask one or two Select Board members to worlc with him and
planning staff on negotiating a Preliminary Site Development and Use Plan(PSDUP). For further details,
see below in the Town Manager Report.
TOWN MANAGER REPORT
Mr. Malloy reported that he will preside over his final lnternational City/County Management
Association(ICMA)Board meeting as President this week, September 30 and October 1,2021. The
following Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday,he plans to attend the TCMA conference in Portland,
Oregon.
Mr. Malloy reported that 90.8% of all Lexington residents over the age of 12 years have been fully
vaccinated. 97.85%have had at least one shot; this number is rising about 2.2 percentage points every
week.
Mr. Malloy said that the new pay-by-phone parking app has been used 150 times in the two days since it
was launched. The Town will assess the need to improve or revise the program after 30 days. Mr. Pato
aslced Mr. Malloy to checic to see if parking and vehicle charging fees for electric vehicles are combined
into a single transaction as planned.
Mr. Malloy stated that he is almost ready to report bacic to the Board about the status of the Board's two-
year goalsetting initiative. He has asked three departments for additional information to complete the
report and he will include the update at the next Select Board meeting in the Town Manger Report.
Regarding the cancelled Executive Session,Mr. Malloy reported he has been approached by a Lexington
property owner with a 36-acre campus. There are a number ofi buildings on the property dating back to the
1960s. The owner was granted a PSDUP in the early 2000s; this was controversial because the properry
borders on a residential neighborhood as well as a wetland habitat. The owner has revised his/her thinking
and hopes also to be able to revise the elements of the PSDUP with an eye to removing older buildings
and constructing new ones sustainably. Mr. Malloy requested two Select Board members to assist him
and staff with negotiations for a new PSDUP. He hopes to bring a new proposal back to the full Board for
approval before Annual Town Meeting 2022. Mr. Sandeen and Mr. Pato volunteered to work on this
initiative.

ITEMS FOR INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION
l. �ntroduction of Joanne Belanger,Director of Public Health
Mr. Malloy introduced Ms. Belanger saying she comes to Lexington with an impressive 30 years in
municipal Public Health, serving most recently in Lowell as Director of Health and Human Services.
Ms. Belanger said the majority of her career was in the Town of Andover,MA. She has experience
working on environmental health issues and clinical and community nursing. Having served in these
various capacities, she believes her biggest passions lie in public health.
DOCUMENTS: Joanne Belanger cover memo.
2. Update on MIT Lincoln Laboratory Expansion Project
Mr. Menadue,Director of Capital Projects at MIT Lincoln Lab,reported that MIT/Lincoln Lab is
3
undergoing a three-phase physical plant modernization plan for its facility that was created on the 1950s.
Most of the modernization design has been done in-house and the early-phase consti-uction will be
executed by the Army Corps of Engineers with Air Force military construction("Mi1Con")funding.
There are currently about 4000 MTT employees at this secure location whose single client is the
Department of Defense(DoD). The work is underwritten by a little over$1B in research funding. The
number of Lexington residents working at MIT/Lincoln Lab has more than doubled over the past 5 years
from about 60 to 139.
The areas of focus far this research and development work are,basically,nano technologies, such as
microchips; and rapid prototyping which Mr. Menadue explained is used in larger models that include
nano technological within their systems. Once a prototype is developed and the DoD wants inore built,
MIT/Lincoln Labs transfers the technology out to the winning bidder for manufacture.
Given that a recent DoD assessment of the MIT/Lincoln Lab facilities showed leaking roofs, structural
issues, and unsafe space constraints,M1T/Lincoln Labs must upgrade its facilities or risk losing DoD
contracts.
The first of the three-phase modernization plan started in 2015 and focused on stabilization of immediate
repairs, some of which were major. A long-terin inonetization plan will replace remaining 14 buildings
over a 25-year period via funding obtained through a fee for each program. This will ensure that every
few years, another building gets built.
Mr. Menadue noted that much of the large-scale construction will take place on land owned by adjacent
Hanscom Air Force Base. To build new buildings that will eventually replace older buildings,unutilized
land will be opened up. Mr. Menadue stated that challenges for this project include electrical and
mechanical capacities as well as adequate parking.
Mr. Krawczyk, also of M1T Lincoln Lab, explained how project development funding flows normally,
stating that about half of the funds go through Lincoln Lab to the subcontractors of each project.
Ms. Barry, Lexington's representative to Hanscom Area Towns (HATS) asked if there is direct access
froin MTT/Lincoln Lab to the Base. Mr. Menadue and Mr. Krawczyk replied that,with clearance,
employees can wall�between the two properties but the internal access road was closed some time ago.
Ms. Barry asked that HATS towns be informed of heavy trucking coming through their communities,
given the demolition and construction expected over the coming years. Mr. Menadue stated that no trucks
can enter through the MIT access road; all construction traffic must come through the Vandenburg Gate
off route 2A. Ms. Barry received assurances that air-borne demolition dust will be lcept below unhealthy
levels.
Ms. Barry asked what permitting process the non-Mi1Con projects will go through. Mr. Menadue said the
projects need to go through many permitting authorities,including environmental assessment;
electricity/utilities permitting, and Hanscom AFB civil engineering code enforcement.
Ms. Barry noted an additional road near Wood Street in the site plan map. Mr. Menadue said he has been
hoping to find a way to fund this additional road because traffic studies show it would take MIT traffic off
Wood Street and alleviate traffic congestion that builds up there. There is no plan at this time to construct
such a road but he would lilce to discuss the possibility with the Town. Ms. Barry said if this element of
the plan comes to pass,the adjacent neighbarhoods will no doubt have input to express.
Ms. Barry asked if a114000 employees are working onsite or if some working remotely. Mr. Krawczyk
4
believes that the number onsite currently is about 1300 because most are working remotely. The Lab is
studying a remote working plan which Mr. Menadue said was still in its infancy because many employees
need access to hardware only available onsite. He further noted that until the modernization construction
plan is carried out,worlc space will be very tight. A return-to-the-warksite plan,however,is targeted for
early 2022. lt was noted that there is no expectation of additional employees in the Master Plan.
Ms. Barry asked for Mr. Menadue and Mr. Krawczyk to present this inforination and some deeper
analysis at a HATS meeting in the future.
Ms. Hai asked the representatives to consider whether the MIT/Lincoln Lab shuttle bus between MIT and
Lexington could accommodate non-einployees in either direction as a way to transport comtnuters
without adding single occupancy vehicles to the roads.
Mr. Lucente asked if MIT/Lincoln Lab would continue to track its"ripple effect"figures to gauge
economic impact of the surrounding area. Mr. Krawczylc said he can provide the few years of historic
data that has been collected but the plan is to continue to follow the numbers which he believes will
improve once the Master Plan has been fu11y implemented.
Mr. Sandeen asked how much square footage will be constructed in total. Mr. Menadue reported that
there are currently L8M gross square feet on cainpus and the finish project will be about 2.SM gross
square feet. The inajority of that will be an enlargement of inechanical space.

3. Review Request for Change of Parking Regulation—Three Spaces at 844-856 Massachusetts
Avenue
Assistant Town Planner Sheila Page reported that the Transportation Safety Group (TAG)received a
request from a business owner in the 844-856 Massachusetts Avenue block, asking to change three
parking spaces to a one-hour limit to improve parking turnover. Because there are an ample number of
parking spaces in that area,TAG has no objection to the request.
Ms. Hai noted the crosswallc nearest the spaces is close a bus stop so pedestrians should be advised that
there will be inereased pace of comings and goings there.
VOTE: Upon a motion duly made and seconded,the Select Board voted 5-0 by roll call in accordance
with the provisions of Chapter 689 of 1986 of the General Laws,the Traffic Rules and orders of
Lexington, adopted by the Board of Selectmen on November 13, 1967,now Chapter 192 of the Code of
Lexington, are hereby amended as follows:

4. Update on Cedar Street Sidewalk Project
Ms. Hai noted that the Select Board has received an unusually high number of emails about this agenda
item. Ms. Hai further noted that ongoing outreach is being conducted by the Transportation Safety Group
(TSG).
Ms. Page,Assistant Planning Director, and Ross Mor�ow, Assistant Town Engineer,provided
background and details of Cedar Street sidewall�initiative that started in 2017 when signatures from 136
households were submitted to TSG, 127 of which supported a sidewalk installation for one side of the
street down the length of Cedar Street. Thirty of the signatories were direct abutters in support of the
project; nine signatories were against the project, four of which were direct abutters. ln 2017,the case for
a sidewalk was presented to TSG,which saw potential in the proposal. A land surveyor was engaged in
2018 to complete a so-called existing conditions analysis.
Ms. Page further stated that a public meeting was held on September 1, 2021 to which 210 households
were invited; 55 people attended and they provided what Ms. Page characterized as thoughtful input.
Many people expressed concern over the removal of trees, citing the beauty of Cedar Street. There was
also concern over the speed at which vehicles travel on the narrow street, especially at the Paul Revere
intersection which is reportedly difficult for cars and pedestrians to navigate safely. Anothei•difficulty is
the poor sight lines after the turn onto Cedar Street from Massachusetts Avenue. Residents also noted that
there is no safe place for students to wait for the school bus unless they stand in neighbors' driveways. A
number of homes haVe walls, fences, and landscaping that might be disrupted by a sidewalk installation.
Depending on which side of the street the sidewalk is placed, Ms.Page said the Town would work with
homeowners whose gardens/walls/fences required removal. Disruption to yards will be repaired,however
it was noted that some of the houses in question are very close to the street and privacy is an issue. Utility
poles will probably have to be moved but at this point,it is not possible to state which side of the street
would be chosen as the design phase has yet to be budgeted.
Mr. Morrow said the full length of the street is .8 miles,with Massachusetts Avenue on one end and Pine
Meadows Golf Course on the other. The pavement width varies from 18 and 30 feet, although some
residents report that, due to overgrowth in some places,pavement width is down to 17 feet. The Town's
Right of Way width also varies between 25 and 30 feet. There are 73 abutters along this stretch and there
are 1] intersections. Since 2010,there have been 6 reported crashes. The average speed, gleaned from a
speed study,is 20 mph but the maximum recorded was 38 mph. Mr. Morrow reported that,having
walked the road recently, he believes 24 mph on this road feels fast.
Mr. Morrow said a sidewallc on Cedar Street would add to Lexington's connectivity network. There are
also school bus routes that will benefit from having a sidewalk. Mr. Morrow said there are approximately
12 trees that would have to be removed but all work would all be done within the Town Right of Way.
Given all the considerations and input, Ms. Page stated that TSG recommends construction of a sidewalk
along Cedar Street from Massachusetts Avene to Denver Street and asked for it to be included in the
budget.
Ms. Hai said she is in favor of making Lexington's wallcing routes as safe and accessible as possible,
especially given the number of recreation facilities in this part of town. She also hopes that a sidewallc
will slow vehicle speed on Cedar Street and she is happy to see the amount of engineering thought that
has already been applied to the proj ect. She is also sensitive to tree loss but noted that some of the trees
tagged for removal are non-native species.
6
Ms. Barry said she supports the sidewalk and would also feel favorably about continuing the sidewalk to
the end of the street rather than stopping at Denver Street. She realizes sidewalks can be controversial but
they are now becoming a necessity for narrow, curvy, old New England roads.
Mr. Morrow noted the difference in distance between what is proposed(to Denver Street) and full length
is 2500 feet(a little less than '/z mile)versus 4200 feet(.8 miles).
Mr. Sandeen noted he has seen an increasing number of school children bilcing in this area. He expressed
concerns about installing granite curbing which can present a hazard for bikers that get squeezed to the
edge of the road when cars pass. Mr. Morrow said this will be taken into consideration during the design
phase.
Mr. Sandeen asked if there is a way to divert the sidewall�around some of the statelier trees rather than
remove them. Mr. Morrow said every attempt will be made to save as many trees as possible.
Mr. Sandeen asked whether residential landscaping would be replaced. Mr. Morrow said that the Town
will work with residents to make them happy with the outcome.
Mr. Sandeen asked if the Cedar Street/Paul Revere intersection would be improved by this project. Mr.
Morrow said providing safe pedestrian access through the intersection would be an improvement.
Mr. Lucente said he believes sidewalks add to the overall quality of life. He noted,however that there are
other areas of town that have been rated as being higher priority by the Town's assessment system. He
questioned, for the sake of equity,how Cedar Street moved ahead in the waiting line for construction. Mr.
Lucente agreed that granite curbing on this street is problematic. He asked if any consideration been given
to making Cedar Street one-way, given all the activity in the area.
Ms. Page stated that the sidewalk prioriry map is a tool used but TSG also takes resident request into
account.Neighborhood/town connectivity needs are also weighed.
Mr.Pinsonneault, DPW Director, stated that the Town uses the rating system to choose which sidewalk
projects to prioritize within yearly budget allocations; citizen-generated projects coming through TSG are
funded outside that yearly appropriation.
Mr. Morrow said he is not sure how feasible it would be to make Cedar Street one way but he will look at
it closely. He noted that malcing Cedar Street one-way would force traffic onto adjacent streets.
Mr. Pato said he is concerned about ending the sidewallc at Denver Street,noting a pedestrian injury near
the golf course which is out of the scope of the proposed project. Mr.Pato also expressed concerns about
lost trees, although he favors the sidewalk in this instance. He asked that carbon sequestration be made a
larger element of any consideration when mitigating the loss of a mature tree.
For further information, Ms. Page noted that this project appears on the TSG webpage under"sidewalk
Requests".
ACTION ITEMS: Public comments will continue to be taken on this issue. TSG will continue to refine
the project,providing information about tree,utiliry, neighborhood impacts,preferred side of the street. If
the Select Boatd approves the project,partial engineering and Capital Project funding will be sought
within the upcoming budget cycle(s). The next Select Board review of the project is expected in the
October/November timeframe. Mr. Pinsonneault will check to see if the Hill Street sidewalk project was
funded in a two-step manner. (i.e. Design,then construction)

8. Update on Cultural Districts Designation
Ms. Coppe and Mr. Poltorzycici, Cultural District Worlcing Group,presented an update on work being
done and next steps towards applying for a Cultural District designation through Massachusetts Cultural
Council. Mr.Poltorzycki stated that the Board will be aslced at a later date to approve a resolution to
move the application process forward.
To be eligible to apply,the Town must agree to dedicate staff and resources and a public meeting must be
held. Outreach will also take place on Discovery Day and at the Cary Memorial Libra.ry. The Working
Group has been meeting with the Economic Development department staff to advance the initiative.
The resolution will also appoint a Town official to the district's managing partnership. The partnership
generally includes representation from the cultural groups in a community. Ms. Coppe noted that the
Working Group has inet monthly since March 2021 and has invited representatives from 65 arganization
to participate.
Mr.Pato asked what Town obligations,beyond staff participation,there would be far a Cultural District.
Mr. Poltorzycki said that once the managing partnership has been created,the district runs itself. The
8
partnership has an obligation to produce an annual report which is the basis upon which available grants
can be applied. If Lexington's district is awarded grants, funds should be held in a Town account.
Ms. Iyer, Economic Development Director,reported that the public meeting has been advertised in a
variety of publications and Town channels. Ms. Iyer asked if funding is available to help cover the cost of
advertising. Mr. Malloy will check into this.
ACTION: The Public Meeting will be held. Mr. Malloy will check into funding for advertising.

9. Discuss Timeline and Process for Town Manager 360 Review
Ms. Hai reported that there are two paths available to conduct this 360 Review,which is considered a best
practice. The first is a customized approach that involves interviewing the subject(Mr. Malloy) and also
hose who directly report to him. This process is lengthy and more expensive. The second approach is one
recommended by the International City/County Management Association(ICMA) and involves an
electronic tool which poses a series of questions about management style and traits. It would be
administered to the Town Manager himself and to other individuals or groups as determined by the Select
Board,including the Select Board and those who report directly to the Town Manager.
Ms. Hai recommended the electronic tool approach. The information gathered would be submitted to Ms.
Katzenback in the Select Board Office. She would organize the responses and then the Select Board
would have a conversation about the findings with Mr. Malloy,possibly at the end of October.
Ms. Hai and Mr.Pato will send the Board links to a website with a sampling of the electronic tools,
including sample questions. All respondents are asked the same questions.
Select Board members endorsed the electronic tool option approach,Ms. Malloy said he finds feedback
fiom ICMA-approved electronic tools to be useful and aslced that a wide range of Town staff be included
revi ew.
ACTION ITEMS: Ms. Hai and Mr.Pato will send Board members links to the website with a sampling of
the electronic tools, including sample questions. The Board will make a selection at the October 12. 2021
Select Board meeting.

staff, and members of the public about Lexington's Standard of Conduct regarding civil discourse during
Town Government meetings.
SELECT BOARD MEMBER CONCERNS AND LIAISIN REPORTS
In addition to her previously submitted concerns and reports,Ms. Hai announced that the draft of the
State's redistricting maps was released today. The proposal would take Lexington's Precinct 6 from the
Middlesex 15 district and append it to Middlesex 21,which encompasses all of Bedford and part of
Burlington,represented currently by Ken Gordon. A public hearing will be held on Friday, October 15,
2021 and a vote on Monday, October 18, 2021 in what Ms. Hai termed a"short process". Ms. Hai and
Mr. Malloy will attend this meeting on behalf of the Select Board and the Town to express displeasure
with the plan, stating that the Lexington should be lcept together in Middlesex 15 and that the purpose
behind redistricting—to ensure minority representation—is already being accomplished as evidenced by
the diversity of people being elected to committees,boards, and Town Meeting.
Mr. Lucente said he would like to have a more in-depth conversation about this than it is possible to,
given that this item does not appear on tonight's agenda plus the timeframe for response to the State is
very short. He is frustrated that the State has not given more opportunity for community feedback. He
cautioned the Board,however,not to jump to the conclusion that this redistricting would not be beneficial
in the way the State intends.
Mr. Pato said he agreed with Mr. Lucente and he is reluctant to make a counter argument to the State at
this stage. Having looked into Lexington's precinct demographics,he believes removing Precinct 6 would
not dilute minority representation.
Ms. Hai clarified that her concern was that the people in Precinct 6 would have a much smaller base of
con�ununity if they alone in Lexington were attached to a collection of precincts outside of town. She felt
Precinct 6 would miss a larger base of support if any of these Town Meeting members decided to run for
higher office in the future. Mr. Sandeen said he concurred with Ms. Hai's concerns.
1
ACTTON ITEMS: Ms. Hai urged those who wish to comment on this issue to do so to the appropriate
State-level entities. She and Mr. Malloy will continue to gather infonnation.
Aside from his previously submitted concerns/liaison reports,Mr. Lucente noted that the Town
Celebrations Committee will be asking Select Board meinbers to confirm their intent to participate in the
Veterans Day Car Parade.

ITEMS FOR INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION
1. Public Hearing and Discussion—FY2022 Water & Sewer Rates
Ms. Hai opened the Public Hearing at 7:22 p.m.
Ms. Kosnoff,Assistant Town Manager for Finance,presented information in the first of two discussions
regarding FY2022 Water and Wastewater rates. The vote on this item will take place at a future meeting.
Highlights of the presentation included:
• Total FY2021 Water Revenue came in$2.2M over projections,primarily due to surpluses in the
Irrigation category. The Water Enterprise Fund now carries an overall surplus of$2.3M. The
Retained Earnings balance went from$1.7M to $3.SM.
• Sewer Revenue also outpaced expectations by$398,000 plus turn bacics on the Expense side
equaled $563,000. Retained Earnings for Sewer/Wastewater Enterprise Fund are projected to be
$1.8M at the end of FY2021. Ms. Kosnoff noted that Retained Earnings balances have
historically be used for one-time Capital expenses. Tt is possible to use surpluses to offset rates
but this has not been Lexington's past practice,however.
� Ms. Kosnoff noted that the water and sewer rates are based on projected usage,which is reflected
in the amount budgeted. At Special Town Meeting there will be a request to decrease 21ine items
in the budget: 1) the MWRA Assessment and 2) Compensation.
• The Water Enterprise budget is going up 7.7%,based largely on the MWRA Assessment, a
charge that the Town cannot negotiate. Ms.Kosnoff noted that Lexington's rate is based on its
share of systein costs plus its past year usage. She projected that next year's MWRA Assessment
will go down 4.28%.
• Cash Capital is being used,whenever possible, to avoid borrowing costs for Water and Sewer
maintenance/improvements. The FY2022 includes an additional $200,000 to be used for this
purpose.
• For FY2021, the tiered rate Water usage came in signi�icantly higher than estimated. As there is
not usually a great deal of fluctuation in these rates,Ms. Kosnoff believes the upticks on the
residential side are due to Covid-related changes in behavior, such as more residents working at
home instead of at an office. These behavior changes also affected commercial usage,which was
significantly lower, except for irrigation usage. The same pattern was noted on the Wastewater
patterns of usage.
• Future usage patterns are particularly hard to predict, given weather and Covid-19 disruptions to
historical trends. Ms. Kosnoff said that budget projections have been made very conservatively,
with the exception of Irrigation projections which are higher.
3
� On the Wastewater side,the budget as proposed will increase 4.1%, also largely due to an
MWRA Assessment increase of 3.2%.
� Overall,the Water rates are proposed to go up 8%and the Wastewater rates are proposed to go up
5%. The combined rate is 6.1% over FY202L For the]owest tier user,this would translate to an
increase of about$39/yr; the second tier would see an increase of$54.60/yr.
• The wholesale/Municipal/Town of Bedford cost for Water is going up 1.9%. The wholesale
Sewer rate wi11 stay flat.
• Lexington's FY2021 combined Water and Sewer rates are in the middle of the pack, compared to
the other member towns.
Mr. Lucente said that persistent rate increases are putting Lexington on an unsustainable path. He asked if
the Town should be contemplating a strategy change. Ms. Kosnoff agreed that the rate increases have
been unfortunate and they are also difficult to predict. Lexington's MWRA assessment is based not only
on Lexington's usage but also on the usage of the other member towns. She believes the installment of
automatic-read radio meters will help provide real-time data collection and allow for quarterly billing, as
well as take the guessworlc out of consumption predictions. After all the autoinatic meters have been
installed,Ms. Kosnoff believes a full analysis of the system and a re-evaluation of the tiered rate system,
including commercial consumption,will be warranted.
Ms. Hai asked if using some of the Retained Earnings to shave off rate increases would be a way to
mitigate user costs. Ms. Kosnoff said this is possible to do at Special Town Meeting and would be
tantamount to pausing the transfer of surplus to Cash Capital for a year($2M for Water and$1M for
Sewer). Mr. Malloy cautioned that the purpose transferring these funds is to avoid borrowing for what are
ongoing/maintenance expenses. Over time, the costs would become part of the yearly budget instead of
being borrowed for,and thus incurring debt and interest payments.
Mr. Sandeen asked if there is a breakdown of residential versus commercial usage so that programs to
reduce usage can be tailored to each category of consumer. Ms. Kosnoff said that accounts are currently
not flagged as residential or commercial but the radio meters should improve the Town's ability to
distinguish one category of user from the other.
Mr. Kanter,Vice Chair of the Capital Expenditures Committee, asked if it would make sense to install a
sewer meter for the six or so customers that do not have a water meter because they use their own well
water. Dave Pinsonneault,DPW Director, said he has looked into doing that but the technology is not
available. The Department is keeping an eye on advances in the field.
Ms. Hai closed the Public Hearing at 7:52 p.m.
ACTION ITEMS: The Water and Sewer rates will be voted at an upcoming meeting.

2. Update of Police Station Building Project Design
Mr. Cronin, Director of Facilities stated that multiple Town committees, as well as members of the
public,have provided input and critiques about the Police Headquarters design. Architect Jeff McElravy
of Tecton Architects shared two schematic designs plus an overview of the community conversations
about the design and policing.
4
Desigr► Option A is a slight moditication of the original design that was approved by the Select Board but
sidelined because of the pandemic. Design Option B incorporates more of the committee and community
input but it also adds square footage which will increase the overall cost of the proj ect. Some of the
changes/additions shown in Option B included non-gendered restrooms and locker rooms; flexible floor
plans versus fixed program space; mental health service offices sharing police department space;
inclusivity and accessibility concerns; providing a welcoming, inviting atmosphere; providing community
gathering spaces;providing transparency between spaces but also providing soundproofing for
confidential/sensitive conversations/interviews.
Mr. Lucente said he appreciated the attention paid to the community feedback in the design of Option B.
One element of that plan he is less supportive of is the multi-purpose room which he said seems overly
generous given the number of other meeting rooms and conference spaces.
Mr. Pato also prefers Option B for its future growth potential but he noted that Option A also addresses
much of the community needs. For him, a big question is how much more Option B would cost than
Option A and if the differential manageable.
Ms. Hai expressed similar reactions,noting that the project was downsized at one point due to cost and
then put on hold.Now some of what was engineered out has been returned to the design. Before a final
choice is made, cost must be assessed.
Mr. Sandeen asked if the locicer rooms could eventually be adjusted to be the same size if staff ratios
shift. if not, he would prefer Option A in which the ability to adjust the locicer rooms has been made
evident. Cost is also important to him. Mr. McElravy said he is confident that additional flexibiliry can be
built into the design of Option B's locker rooms.
Interim Police Chief Michael McLean stated that the reason the multipurpose meeting room was added to
Option B is that the future of policing is unknown and the space allows flexibility for change. Without a
doubt,he projected the need for additional training and simulations in the future plus the high likelihood
that social services will become more embedded within the department.
Mr. Cronin said the original plan—neai•est in square footage to Option A—carried a working total of
$25M before Covid. Since that time,raw materials, changes in labor, and competing regional projects
have altered the construction landscape. Right now, Mr. McElravy estimated costs for Option A to be
$30M and$32.8M for Option B but he emphasized that he is unsure which way the market will swing
given all the unknowns. The modest modification costs for to the temporary swing space are not included
in this cost estunate but there is $250,000 included for the relocation of the Hosmer House.
Select Board members unanimously expressed their preference for Option B,reasoning that the cost
differential was low enough in exchange for the added benefits, at least as calculated at this early stage of
design. Mr. Sandeen cited the Permanent Building Committee's philosophy about the project, saying the
cost would never be lower and waiting only adds to the price tag. Mr. Malloy stated that, for the average
household,the additional cost of Oprion B, given the 20-year loan timeframe,would add an additional
$36 a year in taxes. Over Option A Ms. Hai noted that authorizarion for this project will require a debt
exclusion vote and the timing will need to be discussed.
Mr. Himmel, 66 Hancock Street, said he believes it is important to move quicldy to nail down the
specifics of this project.
Ms. Overton, 25 Emerson Gardens, offered her assistance to further the conversation about the gendering
of the locker rooms. She was please that Option B is going forward.
5
Mr. McGaw,Precinct 6 Town Meeting member, applauded the decision to move forward with the more
flexible Option B but added that flexibility can be achieved without using walls to delineate spaces. He
would like to see a comprehensive overview of what taxes would be if the Police HQ debt is added to the
other added costs from Community Preservation, Water Stabilization, and the projected high school debt.
Mr. Shiple,Precinct 9 Town Meeting Member, aslced how many bicycle-mounted patron officers can be
accommodated in Option B. Mr. McElravy said there is a good amount of space on the garage for
bicycles but he will have to look again at exactly what the count is. Interim Chief McLean added that all
new officers are now being trained in Police Academy for bicycle patrol but the count would never be so
high that space would become an issue.
ACTION ITMES: The plans will be further refined prior to Special Town Meeting requests for design
and swing space allocations.

Street.
DOCUMENTS: Eversource Grant of Location Petition—Reed Street
4. Grant of Location for Verizon and Eversouce—Installation of New and Relocation of Existing
Poles on Massachusetts Avenue and Worthen Road
Ms. Hai opened the Public Hearing at 9:16 p.m.
Mr. Sandeen noted that although the submitted plan seems to make approval of this pole relocation
advisable, a recent visit to the site revels that the intended relocation would potentially harm/kill an
existing large tree's root structure. Mr. Sandeen said he could not support the request if the tree would be
harmed. He further recommended that future requests of this nature include the location of existing trees.
Dave Pinsonneault,DPW Director, said his understanding is that the pole placement has been thoroughly
vetted; there are no other trees in the area that would be affected. He will look at the site closely to
ascertain the best pole re-location. Nlr.Pinsonneault stated that,if at all possible,nothing would be done
to damage the tree.
Ms. Hai suggested rewording the motion so any relocation would not adversely affect the tree. Mr.
Sandeen was agreeable to this revision.
6
Ms. Hai closed the Public Hearing at 9:22 p.m.
VOTE: Upon a motion duly made and seconded,the Select Board voted 5-0 by roll call to approve a
Grant of Location to Verizon new England, lnc and NSTAR Electric Company d/b/a Eversource

ACTION ITEMS: Mr.Pinsonneault to examine the proposed pole relocation.
DOCUMENTS: Petition Map/Abutters list Order
5. Vote Update of Town Reprecincting Map
Ms. Sperber,Assistant Town Clerk,presented a reprecineting plan based on the 2020 Census. This
process is required by law to fairly represent increases/decreases in population. Ms. Sperber stated that
the 2020 census cites Lexington's population as 34,454 residents. The plan preseives nine voting
precincts while malcing adjustments to evenly distribute the population and bears the least impact while
ineeting both deviation restrictions and maintaining allowable configurations.
Aslcing for Select Board approval,Ms. Sperber stated that once this approval is received, the plan must be
submitted to the Local Election Districts Review Commission (LEDRC)by October 30,202]. Once
approved by the LEDRC,precinct boundaries will become effective on December 31, 202].Notifications
of the change will be made to the media and effected households. Two Town Meeting Members will be
affected by this redistricting and both have been notified.
Mr. Sandeen said he will forward the name of a third Town Meeting Member who may also be affected
by this plan.
Mr. Kanter, 48 Fifer Lane, aslced what the afFected Town Meeting Members have to do,now that their
precinct number has changed. Ms. Sperber said the members will have to run again for a seat in their new
precinct.

6. Community Feedback on Police Station Project and Policing in Lexington Part 2: Feedback on
Policing
Ms. Barry recused herself from this item as her husband is employed by the Police Department.
Mr. Pato and Mr. Lucente provided highlights of the community conversation on Policing and Public
Safety that they facilitated following the killing of George Floyd in May of 2020. The report presented
tonight is Part 2 of two; Part 1 covered feedback pertaining specifically to the Police HQ building.
Highlights of Part 2 included:
• In general, coinmuniry members were generally supportive of the Lexington Police Department
and of proceeding with the new HQ construction.
• While preserving respondent con�identialiry,Mr. Pato reported that comments included both
positive and negative descriptions of encounters with Police. In some cases, action has already
been taken to address concerns.
• Collected fieedback has been organized alphabetically into 10 categories:bias; effiectiveness;
engagement; governance; miscellaneous (an assortment of comments that did not fit cleanly into
the other categories);politics;process;possible improvements; staffing; training.
Ms. Hai and Mr. Sandeen believe there is a lot to be learned from this report and that the responses can be
used to inform future decisions regarding policing in Lexington.
Mr. Shiple,Precinct 9 Town Meeting Member suggested providing copies of this repart to candidates for
the job of Police Chief so that their perceptions can be noted in the hiring process.
Mr. Malloy reported that he and Tnterim Chief McLean went through the report and submitted a response
document which has been posted online. He asked the Board to review that document prior to approving
the report at a future meeting. He emphasized that the Town is using the report as a framewark. Response
to the community comments will be ongoing. Interim Chief McLean added that he looks forward to
working with the Chief Equity Officer on these measures going forward.
ACTION ITEMS: The completed, compiled report will be approved at a future Select Board meeting and
held on file for future reference.

VOTE: Upon a motion duly made and seconded, the Select Board voted 5-0 to approve and sign the
Special Town Meeting Warrant 2021-1 and authorize staff to make non-substantive edits as necessary or
as recommended by Town Counsel or Bond Counsel.
• Presentation—STM-1 Article: Appropriate for Community Preservation Projects
Ms. Fenollosa, Chair of the Community Preservation Committee,presented details of three time-sensitive
projects coming before Special Town Meeting, noting that Community Preservation projects generally
come before Annual Town Meeting only. These projects are: 1) supplemental funding for the Sutherland
Playground; 2)Parker Meadow Accessible Trails Construction; 3) Old Rez Bathhouse Reconstruction(a
revised plan).
Mr. Lucente asked that there be more contextual information about the playground project which is
focused on children 5-12 instead of the younger children usually served by playground infrastructure.
Mr. Sandeen recommended that additional context also be provided for the Old Rez Bathhouse.
Ms. Axtell said that type of information will be included on the Special Town Meeting webpage.
• Presentation—STM-1 Article: Appropriate far Westview Cemetery Building Construction
Mr. Pinsonneault stated that all of the five bidders for this project came in over the $3,290,000
appropriated by Annual Town Meeting 2020. As with the Police Station estimates, the estimate for the
Westview Cemetery building construction has increased due to postponement, materials costs, labor
shortages, and regional competition for contractors. The project has been value engineered to refine as
much as possible but Mr. Pinsonneault reported it is believed another$770,000 will be needed. The hope
is that if Special Town Meeting approves this appropriation,the bid will go out in early 2022 and the
project will corrunence after a bidder has been chosen.
Ms. Barry asked if the cost estimate would change if the building is not made "creinatory ready"to allow
for that addition at a later date. Mr. Pinsonneault and Mr. Cronin concurred there would be some cost
savings if the crematory-related additional square footage,plumbing, and HVAC systems were taken out
of the design but Mr. Cronin stated that a re-design would cause additional delays and related costs
increases and another bidding cycle would be lost.
Ms. Sandeen asked if the list of alternate elements will be part of the Special Town Meeting presentation
for Westview. Mr. Pinsonneault said they would be included. Mr. Cronin said that demolition of the
existing building, once an alternative,is now part of the base price.
Mr. Kanter,Vice Chair of the Capital Expenditures Committee,reported that CEC believes the project
should be built as proposed. not reduced or altered at this stage.
• Presentation—STM-1 Article: Appropriation far Police Station Architectural Design and
Swing Space Construction
Mr. Cronin,Facilities Director, said that minor alterations are required to turn the temparaiy Fire swing
space into a temporary Police HQ swing space. The current estimate is $615,000, including vital
equipment replacement which has aged out of useful life during project delays.
With addition of$254,000 for Historic District-sensitive solar paneling infrastructure,plus other costs for
the main HQ building, Mr. Cronon said the full request for this warrant article will be $870,000.
9
Ms. Barry asked if it has been decided that solar paneling will go on the roof of the new HQ and if the site
is big enough for solar paneling to go elsewhere. Mr. Cronon said the only thing that has been determined
if that the building is designed to be as close to Net Zero as possible. The site is believed to be big enough
to locate paneling somewhere other than the roof.
Ms. Barry asked if solar panels would be depicted in the architectural renderings that go out to the
community prior to appropriating funds for building construction, even though panel installation would
occur as a separate project after the fact. Ms. Barry said that, given the high-profile location of the Polce
Station,the Board should discuss how to be clear with the community about what is—and what is no—t
included in the project. The other Select Board members concurred.
Mr. Kanter,Vice Chair of the Capital Expenditures Committee, commented that some of the additional
elements included in the HQ plans seem to go beyond the scope of the original proj ect.
Ms. McKenna,Precinct 6 Town Member, said this is the first she has become aware of the potential to put
a solar installation in Fletcher Park. She believes this is a sensitive issue,given the aesthetics plus the
controversy over the Hosmer House relocation, and she would like a more in-depth discussion to take
place.
Mr. Himmel, 66 Hancock Street, said that these types of discussions can only take place as projects move
forward.

Ms. Barry returned to the meeting.
2. Review and Approve Location of Public Safety Monopole at New Police Station
Director of Public Facilities,Mike Cronin, stated that the preferred location for the monopole is behind
the new Police Station. There is room in the new garage that will hold all necessary equipment and allow
for easy access. He noted that, although working in coordination with the new Police Station,the
monopole is a separate project.
In response to a question from Mr. Lucente regarding the proposed]ocation near the bilce path,Mr.
Cronin explained that, if the monopole is moved to the back of the building, there would be parking
spaces included in the area near the bike path on the plan.
In response to a question from Mr. Lucente regarding this project being visible from the street,Mr.
Cronin stated that the Histaric District Commission will be consulted on this project as well.
Dawn McKenna, 9 Hancock Street,Precinct 6 Town Meeting Member, asked about the overall diameter
of installation of the monopole. Mr. Cronin stated this to be 5' all the way up the monopole. Ms.
McKenna also noted that she supports the previously proposed location for the monopole, instead of the
one behind the building.
Upon a motion duly made and seconded,by roll call,the Select Board voted 5-0 to approve the location
of the monopole behind the new police station.

2. Continued Discussion Regarding American Rescue Plan Act(ARPA)Funding Priorities and
Process
Mr. Malloy stated that ARPA funding goes through the end of 2024. There were a number of requests
presented to the Select Board for these funds,which were considered to choose ones focused on the local
econoiny. The plan being presented highlights certain projects for 2022,2023, and 2024,with the
projection to spend approxiinately$3M the first year, $2.SM the second year, and$900,000 the third year.
This is a total of approximately$6.355M of the full $9M allocated to the Town. A number of requests
were received from local businesses, the Chamber of Commerce, and some local private
schools/preschools. Thus,this plan sets aside $50,000/year each for Committee/Community Requests and
Other Community Requests. There is also $500,000/year set aside for a participatory budgeting process.
$1M was also set aside for broadband improvements and$1M toward the water tower replacement
proj ect.
Mr. Lucente stated that he believes this list could sti11 be narrowed a bit. He is interested in the
participatory budgeting process. His concern is that some of the items on the list loolc to be ones that the
3
Town would have completed anyway, and he was hoping the ARPA funds would be for extraordinary
items to help those most in need.
In response to a question from Ms. Barry regarding funding for vaccine storage coolers, Carolyn Kosnoff
Assistant Town Manager—Finance, explained that the Town is still applying to FEMA for certain
expenses,including items such as this.
Ms. Barry suggested that outdoor tents could be added to the list so that the Town and Community Center
can continue to hold outdoor programming.
Tn response to a question�rom Ms. Barry regarding the Recreation Department's request for broadband,
Mr. Malloy stated that that request in not included in this plan, as he would need to see more infonnation
about the benefits of the request.
Mr. Pato agreed with the participatory budgeting process item. He also echoed Mr. Lucente's comments
regarding focusing these funds on small businesses or residents in Town that were most effected by the
pandemic. He would thus be inclined to increase the amount of funds set aside in the community lines. He
also agreed with Ms. Barry's suggestion for outdoor tents.
Ms. Hai noted that some of these funds could be used to explare the housing proposal previously
discussed. Mr. Malloy stated that he believes there are still too many unknowns yet to include this. He did
note that funds are included in the plan for rental assistance. Ms. Hai stated that she would like to move
forward with also exploring the means to create new housing opportunities in Town.
Mr. Sandeen agreed that this could be an opportunity to look into affordable housing in Town. He also
agreed with the item on participatory budgeting and mare funding for the community lines. He suggested
some of the funds could be used to place airborne sensars iii Town classrooms and offices, in a way to
better address the health of the Town.
In response to a question from Mr. Sandeen regarding a Bicycle&Pedestrian Plan, Mr. Malloy noted that
the Town is currently part of a three-town bike/ped planning process with Arlington and Bedford. There
has been discussion with business owners about ariracting people to the backs of these buildings fiom the
bikeway. Malcing the backs of these buildings more interesting could create econo�nic potential. More
infoimation is needed on the cost of this and similar proj ects.
Mr. Sandeen noted that there has been interest in putting a comprehensive Bike/Ped Plan in place and this
could be a good venue to do so. He also noted that he would like for these funds to be used for projects
that the Town was not already planning on pursuing.
Ms. Barry noted her support for the participatory budgeting item. She also suggested lool�ing into funding
for the food pantry.
Mr. Lucente suggested funding for additional bike racics to inspire additional growth of the bikeway.
Dawn McKenna, Chair of the Tourism Committee,noted that she supports an upgraded Town website.
She noted that the Liberty Ride trolley is not included on this]ist but is 15 years old and will eventually
need to be replaced. She asked that Town staff come to speak with the Tourism Committee on other
possible items to include.
4
Bridger McGaw, 89 Meriam Street and Precinct 6 Town Meeting member, CPC funding could be used to
support some of the proposed bike racks and bike/ped infrastructure mentioned. Thus,these funds could
be used to support small businesses effected by the pandemic.
ACTIONS:This plan will come back before the Board at a future date for inore discussion.
DOCUMENTS: ARPA Spending Plan
3. Review and Approve Small Cell Wireless Installation Policy
Ms. Hai noted that this was originally reviewed by the Board in 2020. At that time,it was noted that the
policy needs to be in place before applications are received in order to regulate them. The first application
is now on file, so this is a time-sensitive issue.
Mr. Lucente explained that other policies from around the country were reviewed in drafting this policy,
but none had imagery of examples to put into the policy for design standards.
The Board discussed possibly reviewing this as a Consent Agenda item at the November 15, 2021,
meeting.
Steve Kaufman,Precinct 5 Town Meeting member and Communications Advisory Committee member,
asked that the Board move this forward, as it is important for the Town's communication infrastructure.
ACTIONS: The Board will hear this again on November ]5,2021, and any substantive changes will be
redlined in a memo to the Board prior to the meeting.
DOCUMENTS: Small Cell Wireless Installation Policy-Final Draft
4. Approve Capital Stabilization Framework
Mr. Malloy noted that this policy has been in the worl�s for a year. It has gone through a rigorous process
with financial working groups and the Board was previously supportive of it. This policy would take the
net new property tax revenues generated from either a Preliminary Site Development and Use Plan
(PSDUP) or a project that was part of the recently approved rezoning on Hartwell Avenue and put the
funds aside into the Capital Stabilization Fund. These funds would grow on an annual basis so that it
becoines part of the Town's funding mechanism to help cover the future debt from the high school.
In response to a question from Mr. Sandeen regarding the proposed projects associated for these tax
revenues,Mr. Malloy stated that these are the projects at 1050 Waltham Street, 185 Bedford Street,40
Bedford Street, 475 Bedford Street, and the 95/99 Hayden Street project. The policy requires that each
year the Town Manager make a presentation to the Select Board and others regarding how much has built
up and should be set aside.
There was discussion on some wordsmithing items within the policy.
David Kanter,Vice President of the Capital Expenses Committee,noted that the group has no objection to
inoving forward with this item.
Mr. McGaw expressed excitement in seeing this policy completed. He questioned if,using this model,it
would be more advantageous to have more projects greenlit and in the ground. Mr. Malloy stated that this
would be helpful in building the Capital Stabilization Fund more quickly before the high school project is
5
complete. There is a design team review process that has occurred for some of these proj ects to be ready
before going in front of the Planning Board.
Upon a motion duly made and seconded,by roll call,the Select Board voted 5-0 to approve the Capital
Stabilization Framework as substantively presented.
ACTIONS: Non-substantive edits will be applied and a final copy of the policy sent to the Board.
DOCUMENTS: Capital Stabilization Framework
5. Approve FY2022 Water and Sewer Rates
Ms. Kosnoff explained that this proposal is the same as what was reviewed by the Board on October 12,
2021. There is an 8%increase in the water tiered rates and a 52%increase in the sewer rates. Combined,
this is an overa116.1%increase, or$54.60 for an average Lexington rate payer of 70 HCF per year. The
water budget is going up 7.7% and the wastewater budget is up 41%; these are the primary drivers behind
the rate increase. Summer usage has been a huge driver for both of these enterprise funds for the Town.
As usage goes down,the cost per unit goes up.There is a healthy fund balance in both funds,but it is yet
unknown what spring usage willlook like and how people's behaviors will change due to the pandemic.
If usage is slightly under,the revenue targets may not be hit,but it is believed there is enough of a
cushion to absorb that. Lexington's usage compared to other MWRA communities also needs to be taken
into consideration. If these rates are approved by the Board tonight,they will be effective far the bills sent
out in November.
Tn response to a question from Ms. Hai regarding Lexington being a pass through for both Burlington and
Bedford,Ms. Kosnoff explained that the impact from Bedford in included in the overall system usage,but
Burlington's usage is monitored and billed to them. Mr. Sandeen suggested that the solution for
Burlington be exatnined for Bedford as well.
In response to a question from Ms. Barry regarding the cost per unit going up as usage goes down,Ms.
Kosnoff stated that the proposed budget covers the MWRA assessment. Thus,that cost is being spread
across fewer units or ratepayers,leading to an increase in cost. Ms. Barry noted that she is concerned with
the 6%figure being so high.
In response to a question from Mr. Sandeen regarding using some of the retained earning balance to lower
the cost to users,Mr. Malloy explained that the fund balance can be used for non-recurring expenses. Ms.
Kosnoff added that the balance is not usually used to offset operations because it is a one-time revenue.
She explained that they are not trying to build a balance but set rates that will cover the budget. She noted
that increased irrigation usage was almost the entire increase to the water budget.
Upon a motion duly made and seconded,by roll call,the Select Board voted 5-0 to approve the proposed
FY2022 water and wastewater rates shown on page 2 of the attached rate presentation.
DOCUMENTS: Water and Sewer Rate Presentation
The Board took a five-minutes recess from 8:45pm— 8:SOpm.
6. Special Town Meeting 2021-1 Article Positions,Article Discussion and Consent Agenda
The Board discussed the Consent Agenda. Board was in support of the proposed consent agenda.
6
The Board discussed the various Article positions. Ms. Barry registered her position on a few articles. On
Article 2 -Appropriate for Prior Years' Unpaid Bills,1P—yes; Article 3 -Establish, Dissolve and
Appropriate To and From Specified Stabilization Funds—yes; Article 4 -Ainend FY2022 Operating
Enterprise and CPA Budgets—yes.
There was discussion on Article 5 -Appropriate for Police Station Architectural Design and Swing Space
Construction. This article contains two amounts, one for the work that needs to be done at 173 Bedford
Street and the other related to the Police Station at 1575 Massachusetts Avenue. Christina Marshall,
Anderson Kreiger, Town Counsel,noted that the Article language does seein to read that the full
$870,000 is far the 173 Bedford Street project.
Ms. Barry noted that she feels it is difficult to approve funds for 173 Bedford Street swing space prior to
knowing if there will be approval at Town Meeting to proceed with the new Police Station. She noted that
she would like to wait to voice a position on this Article at this time.
In response to a question from Mr. Sandeen regarding if the funds not specified for 173 Bedford Street are
planned to be spent prior to approval of the Police Station,Mr. Malloy explained that these funds could
be spent on the design of the building so that there are good cost estimates inoving forward to the spring
Town Meeting. If the design and construction are not properly timed,the proj ect will be off-season.
The Board and Mr. Malloy discussed alternate wording for the Article to make it clearer. Mr. Cronin
noted that the approximately$254,000 is for the design component at 1575 Massachusetts Avenue and
the approximately$615,000 is for the construction work and remainder of the design work to take place it
173 Bedford Street.
In response to a question from Ms. Barry,Mr. Cronin stated that the work on 173 Bedford Street will be
put out to bid after January 1, 2022,if approved at Special Town Meeting. If this is not done in the correct
timeframe,there will be a delay on all projects. Ms. Barry noted that she does not see an immediate need
for the Police Station move to occur but does overall support the new Station. Mr. Cronin noted that one
deterrent on waiting is accumulating eight months of escalarion costs.
Ms. Kosnoff agreed with changing the wording of this Article to make it clear which address the
architectural design wark is for,but requested that the bottoin line,total budget number be left in,to allow
for flexibility with the funds between the two projects.
Mr. Sandeen suggested splitting the Article into two separate votes. There was not support for this among
other Board members.
Mr. Kanter noted that the Town will need a swing space eventually, so building it now at a better rate is
an economically viable and proper solution.
Upon a motion duly made and seconded,by roll call,the Select Board voted 5-0 to approve the proposed
language for Article 5, "That the Town vote an appropriation for design, engineering, and architectural
seivices, including production of construction documents at 1575 Massachusetts Ave., and for the
const�uction phase of a temporary police station to be located at 173 Bedford Street in Lexington, and that
to meet this appropriation$870,000 be raised in the tax levy."
Ms. Barry registered her position on a few more articles. On Article 6 Appropriate for Coinmunity
Preservation Projects,—yes; Article 7 Appropriate for Westview Cemetery Building Construction—yes;
Article 8 Climate Action Plan 1P—yes.
7
The Board discussed their positions on Article 9 -Amend General Bylaw-Mount Independence Historic
District: Ms. Hai—wait; Mr. Lucente—wait; Ms. Barry—wait; Mr. Sandeen—wait.
The Board discussed their positions on Article 10 -Reducing Noise From Landscape Maintenance
Equipment.
Mr.Pato noted that he believes there is some misconception around this Article. The decibel ratings in
this Article would be equivalent to approximately 110 decibels at the point of arigin,which is a loud
standard. He has aslced the Committee for a list of equipment used in Lexington and the decibel ratings
for each at a point of origin. He noted that the recommended standard for manufacturers set in 1974 is 94
decibels at the point of origin, so he does not believe this Article will create a situation where landscapers
cannot operate. If this Article does do that,he is not in favor of it.
Ms. Axtell noted that the Noise Advisory Committee wi11 be meeting on Thursday to discuss this Article
and possible update the language for clarity.
Ms. Barry noted that she believes the language of the Article would disallow not only landscapers,but
also homeowners and DPW workers from using certain kinds of equipinent.
Ms. Hai noted that she has had discussion with the Chair of the Noise Advisory Committee regarding
changing the language to reflect seasonal limits only.
Mr. Lucente stated that he would support seasonal limits but has serious concerns about this Article
otherwise.
Mr. Sandeen noted that he does believe setting noise limits is within the Board's purview. He noted that
current gas-powered leaf blowers violate not only the Town's noise bylaw,but the State's as well. Mr.
Lucente noted that his concern is that this Article will essentially ban gas leaf blowers in Town.
Ms. Hai stated that, as written,the Article is unclear, and she is uncomfortable with it.
The Board reviewed their positions on this Article 10 -Reducing Noise From Landscape Maintenance
Equipment. Ms. Hai—no; Mr. Lucente—no; Ms. Barry—no; Mr. Sandeen—wait; Mr.Pato—wait.
Ms. Barry noted that she is a yes on Article ll -Easements for the Town of Burlington.
Ms. Barry noted that she is a no on Article 12-Amend Zoning Bylaw— Structure in Yards. Mr. Sandeen,
Mr. Lucente, and Ms. Hai are still waits.
In response to a question from Ms. Barry regarding the wording of Article 13 -Amend Zoning Bylaw-
Diversity,Equity, Inclusion and Permitting, Charles Hornig, Planning Board Chair, stated that this
language was found to be acceptable to all parties involved, including Ms. Duffield and the Human Rights
Committee.
Mr. Pato noted that, if these amendments do not prevail,he has asked the Moderator to split this into
separate votes for section 1 and 4, and, 2 and 3 of the motion. His position is registered as a no for 2 and
3, and a yes for 1 and 4.
Mr. Sandeen agreed that he would support 1 and 4,but not 2 and 3. Ms. Barry stated the same.
Mr. Lucente and Ms. Hai are a yes on 1,2, 3 and 4.
S
Mr. Hornig stated that the Planning Board will discuss these items on Wednesday.
Mr. Pato noted that he supports Mr. Daggett's substitute motion but does not support Mr. Canale's
proposaL The rest of the Board would like to wait on both of these items.
Ms. Barry noted that she is a yes on Article 14 -Amend Zoning Bylaw- Solar Energy Systems.
Ms. Barry noted that she is a no on Article 15 -Open Space Residential Development„ as it is currently
written.
Ms. Barry and Mr. Lucente noted that they are both a yes on Article 16 Amend Zoning Bylaw—
Residential Parking.
Ms. Barry noted that she is a yes on Article 17-Amend Zoning Bylaw—Sustainable Design for Hartwell
Avenue (Citizen Petition). Ms. Hai noted that she is also a yes. Mr. Lucente noted that he is still a wait on
Article 17.
Ms. McKenna, 9 Hancock Street and Precinct 6 Town Meeting Member urged the Board to urge the
proponents to delay Article 10 until the spring. She noted that,per Article 5, she is in favor of the new
Police Station,but is not in favor of renovating a building that may sit empry until it can be agreed upon.
Mr. Kanter, 48 Fifer Lane, stated he feels that it is prudent to get a swing space in hand now.
ACTIONS: Review the speeches sent out by Ms. Axtell with a hopefu124-hour turnaround.

Dear Select Board members,
On October 19, 2021, Dawn McKenna of the Tourism Committee made a presentation to the Commission on
Disability at our regularly scheduled monthly meeting. The request was for the Commission to review a
different bench proposed for the Battle Green. The benches for the Massachusetts Avenue side will be the
ones previously discussed with backs. The newly proposed ones for Bedford Street are backless, either 6-feet
or 8-feet in length, depending on pricing. The Commission on Disability unanimously voted to approve the new
backless benches, 6-feet or 8-feet as needed.
Please feel free to contact me if more information or clarification is needed.
Thank you,
Victoria Buckley
Chair, Commission on Disability

November 15, 2021
MEMO
To: Lexington Select Board
From: Lexington Board of Assessors
Subject: FY 2022 Lexington Property Tax Classification Meeting
Date: November 15, 2021
This memo is intended to provide the Select Board with the necessary information to conduct a Public
Hearing and Informational Session on the tax classification options available under Massachusetts
General Laws. The classification amendment requires the Lexington Select Board to consider four (4)
selections with respect to the setting the FY2022 Lexington tax rate. The decision of the Select Board for
each alternative must be submitted to the DOR on MA State form LA-5. The four (4) selections are:
1. Selection of a residential factor
2. Selection of a discount for Open Space
3. Residential exemption
4. Small commercial property exemption
1. Selection of a residential rate factor.
(Class 1: Residential; Class 2: Open Space; Class 3: Commercial; Class 4: Industrial, etc.)
The Lexington Select Board may choose to adopt a residential rate factor, which will increase the tax
rate applied to the commercial, industrial, and personal property (C-I-P) classes, by a factor (multiplier)
of up to a maximum of: 1.750. Adopting such a factor will shift a larger portion of the overall Lexington
tax levy to the commercial, industrial, personal property classes (CIP), thereby reducing the portion of
the tax levy borne by the owners of residential property.
Attached Exhibit A & Exhibit B demonstrate the effect that several possible "factor" choices will have by
identifying the tax levy percentage borne by each class of properties through the resulting tax rates.
Some 108 of the 351 communities in Massachusetts have adopted this process of tax classification.
2. Selection of a discount for Open Space.
Massachusetts General Law Chapter 59 Sec. 2A defines Class 2 Open Space as:
"..land which is not otherwise classified and which is not taxable under provisions of
chapters 61, 61 A, or 61 B, or taxable under a permanent conservation restriction, and
which land is not held for the production of income but is maintained in an open or
natural condition and which contributes significantly to the benefit and enjoyment of the
public."
The Lexington Select Board may choose to adopt an exemption, discounting the assessed value
of Open Space to a maximum of 25% for any property that is classified as Open Space. The
Board of Assessors has not identified any property in Lexington that meets the definition of
Open Space according to the statute, therefore adopting/not adopting this exemption will have
no impact on the town's tax classification.

From: Lexington Board of Assessors
Subject: FY 2022 Lexington Property Tax Classification Meeting
Date: November 15, 2021
3. Residential exemption.
The Lexington Select Board may choose to adopt a maximum exemption of up to 35% (prior to FY2016
the maximum was 20%). If adopted, this tax relief would apply only to the principal residence of
taxpayers (owner-occupied and primary domicile).
If this exemption were adopted, the residential properties that are assessed at a value below the "break-
even valuation" point would realize a reduction in taxes while the residential properties assessed at a
value above the "break-even valuation" point must pay additional taxes to compensate. See attached
Exhibit G for a hypothetical application of the residential exemption.
The funding for this exemption/tax relief for qualified applicants would be borne amongst the other
properties of the within the same Residential classification. Non-owner-occupied properties (in
particular, apartment buildings and vacant land) would experience a substantial increase in taxes. [Note:
"The Residential classification" includes over 10,000 parcels: single family dwellings, two & three family
dwellings, vacant land, multi-dwelling parcels, residential condos, and apartment buildings.]
According to Mass.gov statistics, sixteen (16) communities in the Commonwealth of MA (typically those
with a substantial base of residential rental units) have decided to offer the residential exemption:
Barnstable, Boston, Brookline, Cambridge, Chelsea, Everett, Malden, Nantucket, Provincetown,
Somerset, Somerville, Tisbury, Truro, Waltham, Watertown, and Wellfleet.
In early 2018 the Select Board formed an Ad Hoc Residential Exemption Policy Study Committee to
examine if adopting a residential exemption would serve the interests of the Lexington community. In
their final report delivered to the Select Board in April 2019, the Committee advised that adopting the
Massachusetts local option residential exemption was not recommended. The committee suggested
other courses of action for tax relief, such as promoting existing programs for tax deferrals, exemptions
and credits, as well as exploring special legislation for means tested or other age-based tax exemptions.
4. Small commercial exemption.
The Lexington Select Board may choose to adopt a small commercial exemption of up to 10% of the
property valuation for commercial (not industrial) property that meets the requirements of the law.
To qualify, eligible businesses must have occupied the property as of January 1st, and must have had no
more than ten (10) employees (as certified by Mass Dept. of Employment & Training) during the previous
calendar year, and the parcel reviewed must have an assessed valuation of less than $1,000,000
during the Fiscal Year. While the applicant does not have to be the owner of the property to be eligible,
all occupants of the commercial portion of the property must meet the qualifications of this exemption.
The funding for this exemption/tax relief for qualified applicants would be borne by the other properties of
the same Commercial-Industrial-Personal Property (C-I-P) classification, resulting in an overall
increase of the C-I-P tax rate.
According to Mass.gov statistics, fifteen (15) communities in the Commonwealth of MA have decided to
offer the small commercial exemption: Auburn, Avon, Bellingham, Berlin, Braintree, Chelmsford,

Dartmouth, Erving, New Ashford, North Attleboro, Seekonk, Somerset, Swampscott, Westford, and
Wrentham.
In 2020 Town Staff complied data on small businesses with fewer than 10 employees and compared that
list to commercial parcels with values less than $1,000,000. This analysis concluded that fewer than 10
parcels would qualify for this exemption.

follows:
MOTION: That the Motion under Article 10 be amended by adding the following Section 80-
4H(7):
7. Effective March 15, 2025, the use of all gas-powered leaf blowers by the Town personnel

The Amendment sunnorts the tenets of Article 10.
It supplements Article 10 by specifying explicitiv that the Lexington Town personnel and Town
Contractors are also subject to the provisions of Article 10.
