Discuss RFP for Parcel 68-44 Located on Lowell Street- The CPC discussed the request for
proposal for the Lowell Street parcel 68-44. Committee members expressed hesitancy about
the Committee overseeing the processes by which applicants complete their projects, provided
they are within the CPA’s statute of available uses. The Committee also agreed that there was
nothing objectionable about the draft RFP.
In response to the Select Board and Affordable Housing Trust’s request for comment on the
RFP, the Committee drafted the statement that “the RFP is consistent with the range of
projects proposed in the FY25 application by the Trust and approved by the CPC.” After a
motion duly made and seconded, the Committee voted by a roll call vote approving this
statement (7-0-1); Ms. Walker abstained.
Committee Business- Ms. Fenollosa conveyed that the Committee will likely not meet again
until September.
After a motion duly made and seconded, the Committee voted by a roll call vote (8-0) to
