Minutes of August 22, 2002
Those in attendance. Richard Canale, Margaret Cole, Jackie Davison, Bebe
Fallick, Glenn Garber Erna Green, Karl Kastorf Jeanne Krieger Maryann
McCall-Taylor Natalie Riffin, Michael Schroeder David Williams
Copies of the final RFP issued by DCAM as well as a memo outlining the
changes in the final version were distributed. Karl Kastorf had reviewed
the RFP before the meeting and reported that he felt that most of the
suggested changes had been incorporated. DCAM stated that it plans to
consult with the Lexington Town officials as part of the selection process.
Those present felt it was important to be active in keeping the town involved
in the process. They felt it would be good to outline what the town feels is
important in the future development along with highlights of the Reuse Plan.
A one to two page document could be made available to anyone considering
bidding on the site. It was decided that Maryann McCall-Taylor would draft
such a piece for discussion at the next meeting.
The Marketing Plan was distributed. It shows proposals due December 23
2002. Provisional designation of a developer will occur in 2003 Members
felt that the rezoning of Met State would occur at the 2004 Town Meeting
at the earliest
DCAM has scheduled site visits for three Wednesdays in early fall. It was
felt that the task force should be at each site visit Members agreed to the
following schedule:
September 18 - Dick Canale
September 25 - Margaret Cole, Jackie Davison, David Williams
October 9 - Karl Kastorf Jeanne Krieger, Bebe Fallick
All tours meet at the trailer off of Trapelo Road at 10:00 a.m. Maryann
McCall-Taylor will notify DCAM that members will be attending.
Glenn Garber asked whether we should presume Lexington participation in
the developer selection would just occur or should we take some action to be
sure to continue to be a part of the process? It was thought that it would
be helpful to draw up a list of recommendations as to how Lexington should
be involved and when. Jeanne Krieger volunteered to arrange a meeting with
David Perini and to invite Jay Kaufman, Susan Fargo and Tom Stanley The
purpose of the meeting will be to encourage Lexington participation in the
selection review
Members decided to set up a regular schedule of meetings. They will meet
the third Thursday of the month at 5:00 The schedule for the rest of the
year is September 19, October 17 November 21, and December 19
Respectfully submitted,
Maryann McCall-Taylor
