By deleting from the title of Article I the words "Outside of Historic Districts". 2. By deleting the first sentence of § 19.1 and substituting therefor the following: This bylaw is enacted for the purpose of preserving and protecting significant buildings within the Town, especially those which are outside Historic Districts, and to encourage owners of such buildings to seek out persons who might be willing to purchase, preserve, rehabilitate or restore such buildings rather than demolish them. 3. By deleting from § 19.2 the definition of "Commission" in its entirety and substituting therefor the following: COMMISSION Except as otherwise provided in Section 19-4, the Lexington Historical Commission. 4. By adding two new definitions, reading in their entirety as follows: HISTORIC DISTRICTS Historic Districts as defined in Chapter 447 of the Acts of 1956, as amended. HISTORIC DISTRICTS COMMISSION The Historic Districts Commission established pursuant to Chapter 447 of the Acts of 1956, as amended." 5. By amending the definition of "Significant Building" by deleting the word "Any" at the beginning thereof and substituting therefor the words "Except as otherwise provided in Section 19-4, any" 6. By deleting §§ 19.4 and 19.5 in their entirety and substituting therefor the following: § 19-4. Demolition by neglect. A. The term “Commission” as used in this § 19-4 shall mean the Lexington Historical Commission or, with respect to buildings within any of the Town’s Historic Districts, the Historic Districts Commission. B. The term “Significant Building” as used in this § 19-4 and in § 19-5 shall include Significant Buildings both without and within the Town’s Historic Districts. C. If the Commission has reason to believe, through visual inspection or other means, that a significant building may be undergoing demolition by neglect, then the Commission shall notify the Building Commissioner and the owner, and the Commission and the Building Commissioner shall jointly hold a public hearing to i) confirm whether or not the building is a significant building and ii) determine whether or not it is undergoing demolition by neglect, which shall require the concurrence of the Building Commissioner. In furtherance of determining its condition, the Commission may, at any time, request an inspection of the building by the Building Commissioner. D. If the Commission and the Building Commissioner both determine that the building is undergoing demolition by neglect, the Commission and the Building Commissioner shall attempt to negotiate a voluntary agreement with the owner for appropriate and timely repairs sufficient to structurally stabilize the building and/or prevent further deterioration. E. In the event that the Commission and the Building Commissioner both determine that they are not able to negotiate such an agreement with the owner, for any reason, or that the owner has agreed to undertake but has failed to satisfactorily complete such repairs in a timely manner, then the Commission and the Building Commissioner may take such action as is permitted under § 19-5, including seeking a court order that specific repairs be undertaken to secure the building against the elements, vandals and vermin, to halt further deterioration, and to stabilize it structurally. The Commission may forbear from commencing an action in court for any reason. F. Upon completion of all repairs that have been agreed upon between the owner and the Commission and the Building Commissioner or that have been ordered by the Commission and the Building Commissioner, or that have been ordered by the court, and upon certification by the Building Commissioner that said repairs have been completed, the Commission shall certify that the building is no longer undergoing demolition by neglect. § 19-5. Enforcement and remedies. A. The Commission and the Building Commissioner are each authorized to institute any and all proceedings in law or equity as they deem necessary and appropriate to obtain compliance with the requirements of this bylaw, or to prevent a violation thereof. The Historic Districts Commission is, in addition, authorized to institute any such proceeding to obtain compliance with §§ 19-4 and 19-5B and 19-5C of this bylaw. B. No building permit shall be issued with respect to any premises upon which a significant building has been voluntarily demolished in violation of this bylaw for a period of two years after the date of the completion of such demolition or the date by which the Commission or the Historic Districts Commission, as applicable and the Building Commissioner both have determined that a building is undergoing demolition by neglect, whichever date is later, except pursuant to the issuance of a building permit pursuant to an agreement reached under § 19-4B herein, or as otherwise agreed to by the Commission or Historic Districts Commission, as applicable. As used herein "premises" includes the parcel of land upon which the demolished significant building was located. C. Upon a determination by the Commission or the Historic Districts Commission, as applicable that a building is a preferably-preserved significant building, the owner shall be responsible for properly securing the building if vacant, to the satisfaction of the Building Commissioner. Should the owner fail so to secure the building, the loss of such building through fire or other cause shall be considered voluntary demolition for the purposes of Subsection B of this section. 3/16/2016 Center Streetscape – Phase 0 DRAFT Proposal To: Board of Selectmen From: Joe Pato Date: 3/16/2016 The Board has been considering slightly different formulations of the question being brought forward to Town Meeting under the Center Streetscape sub-article. At various meetings the Board has affirmed by majority vote the intent to advance the reconfiguration of the Woburn St / Mass Ave intersection and to include traffic signalization. The Board has also expressed the intent to have Town Meeting vote on this question independently of the remainder of the Center Streetscape project. Proposal I propose we consider structuring the motion to support the following rough project description: The Board of Selectmen propose the reconstruction of the Woburn St / Mass Ave intersection including geometry changes and the installation of traffic signals. This project would extend around the intersection on Mass Ave from the east, Woburn St from the North, to the logical termination point on Mass Ave heading west as determined by traffic engineering principles (and likely to be the first driveway near the Hosmer House). The proposed project is a full road reconstruction including rebuilding the adjacent sidewalks – replacing the existing concrete sidewalks with new concrete sidewalks. This project definition includes no special aesthetic treatments beyond the Town’s policy to use decorative traffic signals like the ones already found in the Town Center. The requested funding (TBD) will allow proceeding to construction for this intersection in the summer 2017 construction season. Phase 0 would be a complete project that could stand alone. Our expectation, however, is that the process described below will allow us to develop and apply a full streetscape aesthetic design into this project and create a Phase 1 project to bring to construction rather than just Phase 0. Process I propose that this is the only question we bring to Town Meeting at the annual meeting. Engineering will provide us with the detailed extent of the project as well as the requested funds needed to support the work. The Board expects that design elements for the entire Center Streetscape to be developed before the fall. Aesthetic elements identified as part of an accepted plan would be brought forward for an additional appropriation at a fall Special Town Meeting so that they could be added to the construction plan for the intersection. Town Meeting's decision on Phase 0, which will define this intersection from a traffic engineering and safety perspective, will set the traffic engineering parameters within which final design elements will be determined. With a decision on Phase 0 in place, the Town will be able to move the Center Streetscape Project forward to 100% design. The process to reach 100% design will be set by the Board of Selectmen and will include the Ad Hoc Streetscape Design Committee working with the Town's professional landscape architects, the public, and, finally, Town Meeting 3/16/2016 CenterStreetscape–Phase0 DRAFT Proposal To: Board of Selectmen From: Joe Pato Date: 3/16/2016 The Board has been considering slightly different formulations of the question being brought forward to Town Meeting under the Center Streetscape sub-article.
