With the help of some nice weather,the day was an overwhelming success. During the course of the day,fifty eight (58), forty two (42)gallon trash bags were donated and collected by Toys for Tots. This was by far the most successful day we have had. We want to thank the community for their generosity and support for this worthwhile charity. I would also like to thank Detectives Mike Sowle and Kristina Hankins as well as the �YC volunteers for all of their work on the program. �� ,, ,„,�%��%������y�y y»y��y , �, f �,�i ///� � ��y�"���/%�!� ^�z����rr�vy� ', � i/ /` � ���'' ,�r !i�, � � a ,y " ` �i��/ii ( �i�b��� ' F a�r����r�lrr�� �, � , 1 ��y �� „�� , ,i�i!�� y � ii� �ii/9%%%/0/i , ` „, ; , �//l1!� ; / �� f��� � �;°' , �����D�'i i � x ' �/ � � � , , � ''�� � y��; f � ' �� ,� �� �i�'//%%/i/ " ����O////%ii� �, / �� � �� � , ��%��//%i � lJi / /////ii� "�„ ,,,,,��i;i,,,� i �;Jl�p�,i � � / .�f OOO�/ iii ����j�jii��� (r ; � ?�J"fi`fi� tY1��J�lJJS 1 ���� %/��iI�/ � ' � �� r,��� j, � i� i�� %i� �������r, `xj�lH��",�f��%f���s��� (������`�r��ra ; j J � �� / r;�„, fk��i�i l' i� � iii i�i �i � ,�`„ �/�,�/� c, y ��%iiii ` ' � � � �%� �� ,,,,, ��/ W1Prt / i ! ���/� ��,� � , �,,,,.,, iU� � , `f��/ r J/�� �nV f ' � r� i 1 �� �" f f; „ r ld � l � ���^���r �i/%/!

DATE AND APPROXIMATE TIME ON AGENDA: 12/16/2024 7:20pm ATTACHMENTS: Description Type � ����[��,�:.��I��,�����������a,��������,��������� ��;�,�����.���� .��,�������,� Memorandum To: The Lexington Select Board From: Economic Development Advisory Committee & Lexington Center Committee Date: J u ly 22, 2024 Re: Recommendations following the review of Lexington Center: The Journey Forward The Economic Development Advisory and Lexington Center Committees, separately and jointly, reviewed and discussed the recommendations included in the Lexington Center.� The Journey Forward report prepared by Mullin Associates Inc. and Fuss & O'Neil at several meetings. As a reminder, membership in our committees are composed of Lexington residents with a wide array of backgrounds and expertise, including Lexington Center retailers, landlords, property managers, architects, and project managers and, therefore, our discussions were robust and incorporated perspectives from multiple stakeholders. Based on our discussions, we offer the following four recommendations to the Select Board: 1) Prioritize decision(s) regarding use of town-owned land in Lexington Center. 2) Focus on ways to create more welcoming and inviting entryways from key access points (the parking lots, bike path, Visitor Center, etc). 3) Convene a forum of relevant municipal bodies and committees to ensure alignment around application of new bylaws (signage, MBTA zoning, etc). 4) Evaluate options for supporting Lexington Center programming. Recommendation #1: Prioritize decision(s) regarding use of town-owned land in Lexington Center The Depot Lot and the Edison Way lot have been identified by the Select Board as potential sites for future housing/mixed use development. Meanwhile, the Town's Engineering Department has identified these lots as "failing" condition and both are in queue for reconstruction. Both lots serve as a major entry point to Lexington Center for residents and visitors who park there and patronize our businesses or visit our historic sites. Additionally, our extremely active bikeway bisects these two properties and its users traverse the Edison Way lot to access our businesses. A redesign of these lots has the potential to unlock much more than improved parking; for example, a redesign could modify traffic flow allowing for improved access into Emery Park which the Mullen &Association Report envisions as the hub of a future Lexington Center. In addition, a redesign could allow Center businesses to improve rear access, helping them in attracting customers from to their rear—as well as front—doors. A redesign could also promote better access from the bike path to Lexington Center, which is a priority identified in past consultant reports. However, redesign cannot begin to move forward until the Select Board decides if the lots will remain parking only or a combination of housing/mixed use and parking should be pursued. Any redesign, regardless of if housing is included, will take considerable time to incorporate the valuable perspectives from the multiple stakeholders impacted by a redesign (landlords, business owners, residents, visitors, town staff). Therefore, our committees believe that time is of the essence for the Select Board to make a decision on the use of these parcels. Please note, that decisions regarding the Depot lot and the Edison Way lot could be broken out separately if needed. Recommendation #2: Focus on ways to create more welcoming and inviting entryways from key access points (the parking lots, bike path, Visitor Center, etc). We appreciate the recent steps taken by DPW to install the new Parklett outside of Avenue Deli and the flower boxes at Grain Mill Alley. We look forward to continuing to work collaboratively with DPW to make modifications in the short term that make entry to, and use of, Lexington Center more welcoming and inviting. As Town Engineering moves forwards with plans for redesigning the Waltham St/ Muzzey St parking lot and the Library, we likewise look forward to collaborating with Town staff to ensure that connection points to these lots get their proper attention to be more welcoming and inviting. While we recognize that many of the alleyways on this side of town are privately owned, we hope that by bringing the property owners together in the redesign conversation they might see the benefits of adding lighting, planters, signage, murals, etc. in their public ways. We also recommend that the Select Board encourages DPW to work with us to identify other modifications to existing Lexington Center entry points to make them more inviting and welcoming with existing budget dollars following the example of the addition of flower boxes at Grain Mill Alley. Recommendation #3: Convene a forum of relevant municipal bodies and committees to ensure alignment around application of new bylaws (signage, MBTA zoning, etc). Given the recent signage and zoning bylaws changes, we recommend that the Select Board convene a forum comprised of representatives from the Historic District Committee (HDC), Planning Board, Economic Development Advisory Committee, Lexington Center Committee, Town staff, and any other relevant town government bodies. The purpose of this forum would be to discuss how these groups view the application of new proposals under these bylaws, with the goal to develop a clear, unified and streamlined set of guidelines and approvals that are efficient, effective, and transparent for Town staff/committees and applicants. We also recommend that any guidelines not only consider new projects, but also focus on upkeep and maintenance of existing property to ensure buildings do not fall into disrepair and become unsightly. While such guidelines are being developed, we also recommend that the Select Board review and identify if there are properties in Lexington Center that in a poor condition and warrant outreach to the property owner highlighting ways in which the owner could invest in improving their property Recommendation #4: Evaluate options for supporting Lexington Center programming. The Mullen Report, along with past consultant reports, have highlighted the important role that programming and events play in increasing vitality in town centers. Over the past few years, the Economic Development Office has been able to host events in Lexington Center funded by pandemic-era related grant programs which are no longer available. These events have drawn foot traffic to town which Lexington Center businesses have benefited from. While the 250th Commission has plans and funding for many activities over the next year, we recommend that the Select Board consider how programming can continue to take place in the Center after the 250th anniversary passes. Support for continued programming could involve allocating funding for Economic Development to host events beyond the 250th anniversary and/or supporting the various community groups that already host events in the center by offering shared resources for event planning and promotion. In addition to focusing on programming in Emery Park, the Town should include Fletcher Park and the community room in the Police Station for programming to take advantage of Town's investment in these spaces.

To achieve this, the definition of "Excessive or Unwarranted Noise" in the Noise Control Bylaw (Chapter 80 of the Code) should be modified. Further, as the enforcement of the Noise Control Bylaw is inappropriate at the special perm it or variance-granting stage of a real estate development project, the ZBA's role in the process imposed by the Noise Control and Zoning Bylaws� should be removed. Background The problem being addressed in this memorandum was brought to the attention of the ZBA by the Land Court's recent interpretation of the Code in the Zero Vine Street consolidated cases.2 As the court indicated, the children who were engaged in batting a baseball as an accessory use of a residential parcel in the cases, would not be able to continue that use based on the sound g enerated.3 Under the Code, most sound- 1. "All Town departments and agencies shall, to the fullest extent consistent with federal and state laws and regulations, carry out their programs in such a manner as to comply with this by-law." Code ch. 80, §80- 2(D). "Any use or structure not listed as an accessory use in Table 1 is permitted as an accessory use provided it is a use or structure that is customary and incidental to a principal use or structure permitted by Table 1, conforms to al I other provisions of this bylaw, and complies with all other Town bylaws or General Laws." Id. ch. 135, §3-2-1. 2. Rogers&Company, Inc. v. Town of Lexington Board ofAppeals, 23 MISC 000233 (MDV) (Mass. Land Ct. 2024)&23 MISC 000347(MDV)(Mass. Land Ct. 2024). 3. Id. at 14("Thus, owing to the Noise Bylaw, use of the Cage for batting is not a permitted `accessory use' under the Zoning Bylaw."); id. at 18("While the Board still should have reached the accessory use issue, as of the April 27, 2023 hearing, R&C had no`noise' evidence, (Intertek's study was a month away), and as found earlier, that evidence wouldn't have supported an order directing the Kinneens to relocate the Cage from the Neck, the study showed only that the batting had to stop."). Adopted unanimously on 11/14/2024 - 1 - generating activities on the land are not listed as expressly permitted uses.4 As a few examples, people talking or listening to music and children playing are not so listed. Consequently, each of these would be considered an "accessory use" under section 3.2.1 of the Zoning Bylaw. As provided in that section, each of these accessory uses must "compl[y] with all other Town bylaws...." As the court found in the Zero Vine Street case, the Noise Control Bylaw in chapter 80 is one of these. Therefore, as a matter of zoning, sound generation becomes critical. As so interpreted and the Land Court judgment eliminates any choice about this the currently crafted Bylaw has inappropriate and expensive implications. These problems are not in enforcement appeals, but in the granting of special permits and variances. Summary of the Noise Control Bylaw The Noise Control Bylaw prohibits anyone in Lexington from generating "excessive or unwarranted noise."5 Noise is "excessive or unwarranted" when it "disturbs a reasonably prudent person or results in noise pollution...."6 Consequently, because of the use of the word "or," actionable noise can be found in two ways: (1) if a sensible person7 would find the sound to be "noise" or (2) if the technical evidence shows the sound to be "noise pollution." The Bylaw defines "noise pollution" as the noise level being raised by ten or more decibels above the ambient level.$ It further specifies that noise shall be measured at the boundary of a property using proscribed professional instruments.9 The "ambient level" is not defined nor discussed in the Noise Bylaw rather is left to the measuring instruments and the professional using them. While the Bylaw discusses construction activities in length in terms of time limits and temporary exemptions, there is no discussion of sound from normal, common or reasonable uses. 4. See Zoning Bylaw, Table 1. 5. Code ch. 80, §80-4. 6. Id. §80-3, para. 6 (emphasis added). The alternate grounds of a"noise injury"would seem to be unlikely to occur within a zoning case, so it will not be addressed expressly in this memorandum. 7. It is not clear why the bylaw references a"prudent" person as the degree of care taken by the hypothetical person would seem irrelevant. 8. Id. §80-3, para. 11. 9. Id. Adopted unanimously on 11/14/2024 - 2 - Discussion Because of the use of the word "or" in the Noise Control Bylaw, the ZBA must evaluate sound generation in two ways. Initially, the Board must determine if a "reasonable ... person" would find the sound being generated to be objectionable; indeed, this has been typically done by the ZBA as part of the review of each application. If, for example, a special permit is needed for the construction of a deck, the Board has evaluated whether the deck will cause a noise (or other problem) for a neighboring parcel. Unfortunately, again because of the use of the word "or" as that was interpreted by the Land Court, the ZBA will no longer be able to stop its evaluation based on the conclusion that the particular use is not "noise" as a reasonable person would determine. Under our Code, even sounds that most (or even all) of us would not describe as "noise" as that term is commonly used, may still be objectionable. It may indeed become difficult to have a play structure for children in a residential backyards because the sound that children make, although not considered to be noise by a reasonable person, will nevertheless generate too m uch sound to be tolerated by the Noise Control Bylaw. In fact, the Zoning Bylaw explicitly requires several recreational structures such as racquet courts to receive special permits, but does not specifically address many other recreational activities such as basketball courts, batting cages, hockey rinks, skating rinks, volleyball nets, and various and future adaptations of recreational activity or uses.10 For example, when the ZBA viewed the Zero Vine Street batting cage, several free-standing basketball structures were noted in close proximity to the batting cage despite their use also being a similar violation of the Noise Control Bylaw. The use of "or" means that the Noise Control Bylaw has no allowance for the sound of greater than a ten dBA increase even if that sound cannot be fairly described as noise. The application of the second, technical part of the Noise Control Bylaw's test during the permitting process as required by the Land Court will be difficult for the ZBA. The Bylaw would have to be applied in zoning for a parcel based only on the likelihood of increasing broadband sound levels more than ten decibels above ambient levels. This evaluation will be complicated (and expensive) for several reasons. First, the ZBA will need to determine what the parcel's baseline level of ambient noise is. At a minimum, therefore, applicants for a special permit or variance will be required to employ an acoustical engineer to establish the baseline. Second, the Bylaw is quite sensitive with a ten dBA increase being prohibited.�� Determining whether the changes 10. See Zoning Bylaw, Table 1, Line A.2.09. It should be noted that badminton nets do need a special permit because it is played with a racket while a volleyball net would not. See id. 11. Average room noise measures at about forty d6A. See Decibel Levels Chart, https://www.ncoa.org/adviser/hearing-aids/decibel-levels/. Conversation usually occurs at a level of sixty dBA, id., an increase of about twenty d6A. Conversation, therefore, violates the Noise Control Bylaw. Adopted unanimously on 11/14/2024 - 3 - proposed in a special perm it or variance application m ight violate the Bylaw will again require the services of an acoustical engineer as the ten dBA increase is likely to be common. Third, with such technical information being submitted to the ZBA, the Board itself will need the services of an independent acoustical eng ineer (which comes at the expense of the applicant under the statutes). In sum mary, going forward, the cost of obtaining a special permit or variance will be raised by the expense of hiring two acoustical engineers. Conclusion We conclude where we started. The current Noise Control Bylaw in chapter 80 of the Code is flawed. It prohibits what should not be and im poses a high cost of property owners. Consequently, it should be amended to: 1. Change the definition of "excessive or unwarranted noise" in section 80-3 to read, "Any noise that disturbs a reasonable person and results in noise pollution or noise injury." The two changes made are removing the "prudent" descriptor of the reasonable person and changing the conjunction to "and" from "or." 2. Change the definition of "noise pollution" in section 80-3 to exclude any sound that is below seventy dBA occurring during the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 11:00 p.m. The change is needed to reconnect noise with the necessary loudness of the sound. 3. Change the requirement in section 80-2(D) that "All Town departments and agencies shall, to the fullest extent consistent with federal and state laws and regulations, carry out their programs in such a manner as to comply with this by-law" to allow exceptions including for examining special permit and variance applications. Additionally, the Zoning Bylaw in chapter 135 of the Code should be amended to: 4. Change the zoning provision found in section 3-2-1 to read, "Any use or structure not listed as an accessory use in Table 1 is permitted as an accessory use provided it is a use or structure that is custom ary and incidental to a principal use or structure permitted by Table 1 and it conforms to all other provisions of this bylaw."

Background: In November 2024, Special Town Meeting passed the following resolution: That the Town is urged to research,study, and present a plan to the Select Board for the potential construction of a crematory addition to the existing Westview Cemetery building to address the unmet end-of-life cremation needs of communities in our town. In 2018, an Ad Hoc Crematory Study Committee was formed to "examine public health, public safety, public works, operational, financial, and quality of life issues associated with locating a crematory at Westview Cemetery and meeting the needs of deceased Lexington residents and theirfamilies." 1 The 2018 Committee's final report was delivered to the Select Board in February 2019, with a recommendation not to pursue a Westview Crematory at that time. Committee Goal: Building on the work of the 2018 Committee, the 2024 Ad Hoc Crematory Study Committee shall assess the following options and provide the Select Board with recommendations on: 1) Building a crematory adjacent to or connected to the proposed new Westview Cemetery Building.* 2) Building a crematory on another location on the Westview Cemetery p ro p e rty.* 3) Not building a crematory at this time. * Note: if the committee recommends 1)or 2),then,to the extent possible,such recommendation should include preliminary design plans, estimated construction costs, a marketing plan and estimated operational/maintenance costs. As a starting point, the Committee should review the 2019 final report (and accompanying minority report) to determine what, if anything, has changed in the intervening years, including financial assumptions, market information, the legislative landscape, etc. Committee Role: The Ad Hoc Crematory Study Committee's study will include but not be limited to the following: 1) Review Final Report of the 2018 Ad Hoc Study Committee a.

Contact the most common funeral homes Lexington residents utilize that are in and around Lexington. b. Determine whether these funeral homes would be willing to partner with / operate a new municipal crematory. 5) Other Crematories: a. Review of other crematories proposed, established and managed by municipalities in Massachusetts. b. Review of common practices and pricing. c. Review of operational costs and perform modeling to include: various sales price & numbers of cremations per year. 6) Building Options: a. Review siting options at Westview Cemetery. b. Review parking & gathering space needs. c. Estimate build out cost for/size (SF) of each siting option. 7) Operational Feasibility: a.

Committee Charge Approved on��2025 by the Town of Lexington Select Board 4 AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY LEXINGTON SELECT BOARD MEETING AGENDAITEM TITLE: Review Amendments to the Lexington Human Rights Committee Charge PRE E TER• ITEM S N . NUMBER: Mark S andeen, S elect Board Member I.7 S UMMARY: Category:Decision-Making The Human Rights Committee is recommending changes to their charge. Mark Sandeen will review the changes with the Board. SUGGESTED MOTION: Move to/not to approve the propo s ed changes to the Human Rights C ommittee charge. FOLLOW UP: DATE AND APPROXIMATE TIME ON AGENDA: 12/16/2024 8:3 Op m ATTACHMENTS: Description Type � �I��::...���.�:.�������,��,��,��.��������,��,��� .�,������ ��;�,�����.���� .��,�������,� � C.��r������,������r�,�����m���,�����r�������� ��;�,�����.���� .��,����r���,� � C.::,�r�����,����,�����,���,�������r�,������� �� - ` � �� �� �� �;�,�����.���� .��,�������,� On September 18, 2024, the Lexington Human Rights Committee (LHRC)voted unanimously to recommend that the Select Board approve the proposed draft changes to the LHRC charge. The LHRC met several times during the spring and summer months to consider potential changes to the LHRC charge and made some initial recommendations. Mr. Pato and Mr. Sandeen reviewed those recommendations and made several additional recommended changes.Those suggested changes were then reviewed by Town staff who approved those changes with some clarifying changes. The LHRC Chair and Vice Chair then reviewed the proposed changes with the Lexington Public School Superintendent, School staff, and School Committee members focusing on the issue of Lexington Public School liaisons. Based on those reviews,the Lexington Human Rights Committee has recommended that the Select Board approve the proposed changes to the LHRC charge. The following is a summary of the proposed changes to the charge.The packet includes a redline version of the proposed changes and a clean version of the proposed changes. The current LHRC charge includes a requirement that several Town employees be appointed as members of the LHRC. This draft charge changes Town and Lexington Public School staff from members of the LHRC to liaisons to the LHRC.This change to liaison status was requested by Town staff during an LHRC meeting. In addition to changing Town staff from members to liaisons,the charge lowers the number of inembers from 9 members to S—7 members, reflecting that Town staff are no longer members. It also adds quorum requirements consistent with other committee charges. There are several aspects of the current charge that are not consistent with other committee charges and those elements of the charge have been removed. The original charge called for the LHRC to engage in public advocacy.The revised charge provides some additional detail regarding the expected types of public advocacy. The original charge called for LHRC to "help"Town departments address conflict through consultation and mediation.The revised charge calls for the LHRC to "support"Town departments and no longer implies that the LHRC act as consultant and mediator to Town departments. The original charge called for the LHRC to report civil rights violations to appropriate government agencies. This part of the charge has been changed to—"Refer reported civil rights complaints or concerns to appropriate government agencies."This change to the charge removes the requirement for the LHRC to determine whether a civil rights violation has occurred.As revised,the LHRC would be charged with referring any complaints that were reported to the LHRC to appropriate authorities. The original charge called for a regular review of civil rights incidents.The revised charge calls for a regular review of the types of civil rights incidents.This clarifies that the LHRC is not reviewing specific incidents, but is reviewing general trends of the types of human rights incidents occurring in Lexington. The original charge stated that the LHRC could appoint sub-committees.This section has been removed as it is the Select Board's role to appoint sub-committees. The original charge stated that the LHRC shall form an Advisory Council.The LHRC does not currently have an Advisory Council, nor has it had one for many years. This section has been removed as it is not consistent with how the LHRC is currently operating.The LHRC would be allowed to form an Advisory Council if the committee so desires, but this change removes the requirement that the LHRC shall form an Advisory Council. The original charge had provisions for removal of inembers by the Select Board.These provisions were not consistent with any other committee charge and were problematic for a number of other reasons. That section has been removed. The following statement is not in any other committee charges and has been removed. "As a committee it shall avoid partisan politics or legislative lobbying or litigation." The election of officers section now requires an annual election of officers as opposed to an election during a specific month of each year. There is a section in the original charge on tenure that is not necessary as it describes current practice for the Select Board appointment process. There is a section on funding and legal advice that is not necessary and has been deleted.The tentative funding language in the original charge was probably due to the fact that the details for managing the accounting aspects of the committee had not been worked out at the time of the original charge.This is no longer necessary. Finally, a Non-voting Liaisons section has been added at the end of the charge, replacing two sections from the original charge discussing appointment of Town staff as members of the LHRC. This summary captures the major changes proposed to the Lexington Human Rights Committee charge. i ..........:�.�:�.:�..��.�..�.
