Select Board Meeting
November 15, 2023
A remote participation meeting of the Lexington Select Board was called to order at 6:45 p.m. on
Wednesday, November 15, 2023 via hybrid meeting services. Mr. Pato, Chair; Ms. Barry, Mr. Lucente,
Mr. Sandeen, and Ms. Hai were present, as well as Mr. Malloy, Town Manager; and Ms. Axtell, Deputy
Town Manager.
ITEMS FOR INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION
1. Approve License Agreement with Eversource for Lexington Police Station Project
Mr. Malloy explained that, on some of the Town's buildings, where there are more complex electrical
connections, the Town has a license agreement with Eversource. Due to the solar/battery connections and
the two transformers set up with Eversource, Eversource is requiring a license agreement for the Police
Station. There is a timing issue to keep the Police Station project on track. Also, the electrical connection
is in Massachusetts Ave., and excavation will be needed again. This work has a seasonal moratorium, and
the work needs to be completed due to seasonal concerns.
Ms. Hai asked about the proposed placement of the new manhole. Mr. Cronin, Director of Public Works,
explained that this will not be an accessibly manhole cover and will not impact users of the park. This
manhole is already in place.
Ms. Barry asked how much digging will be done into the street. Mr. Cronin explained that there will be
digging 30’ onto the street to tie into the property line. This project will start as soon as possible, and
work will not take more than a week. In the spring, this area will be restored.
Upon a motion duly made and seconded, by roll call, the Select Board voted 5-0 to approve the license
agreement as attached and further to authorize the Town Manager to execute the license agreement.
