SELECTMEN'S MEETING October 16., 1972 A regular meeting of the Board of Selectmen was held in the Select- men's Meeting Room on Monday evening, October 16, 1972, at 7 30 p.m. Chairman Kenney, Selectmen Riff in, Bailey, Brown, Mr. Cohen, Town Counsel; Mr. O'Connell , Town Manager; Mr McSweeney, Director of Public Works; Mrs Mascetta, Acting Executive Clerk, were present. At 7 30 p.m. hearing was declared open upon the petition of the New England Telephone Company and Boston Edison Company for the in- stallation of Hip Guy and Anchor on Carriage Drive at Pole 417/1 . Mr Dunn, representing the Telephone Company, and Mr. Pratt, represent- ing Boston Edison, were present. Hip Guy/ Chairman Kenney stated that notices of the hearing were sent to Anchor petitioner, property owners, and abutters as listed on the petitioner's Carriage plan and also filed with the Director of Public Works. Drive Recommendation was submitted by Mr. Coscia, Department of Public Works Manager, that permission to install said Hip Guy and Anchor be granted as the pole was previously anchored to a tree which has been removed and plan submitted with the petition is satisfactory. There being no one appearing in favor or in opposition, the Chairman declared the hearing closed. Motion by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Brown, and unanimously voted to grant permission to the New England Telephone Company and Boston Edison Company for the installation Carriage Drive, southwesterly, approximately 35' from Grove Street, off Pole 417/ 1, one ( 1) Hip Guy and Anchor. At 7 32 p.m. hearing was declared open upon the petition of the New England Telephone Company for the installation of underground conduit on Hayden Avenue. Mr. Dunn, representing the Telephone Com- pany, was present. Chairman Kenney stated that notices of the hearing were sent to the petitioner, owner of the property, and abutters as listed on the Underground petitioner's plan and also filed with the Director of Public Works. Conduit Recommendation was submitted by Mr. Coscia, Department of Public Hayden Ave. Works Manager, describing the intentions of the New England Telephone Company and indicated that the location is satisfactory and that per- mission be granted for this installation subject to the condition that the New England Telephone Company must reserve ducts for the alarm system to the Hayden Avenue sewerage pumping station and for future fire alarm signals. Lloyd Grace of the Kennecott Copper Corp, an abutter, was present to view the plan. Mr. Dunn offered to explain the installation and made a copy of the plan available to Mr. Grace. )21 There being no one else present with any questions and no one appear- ing in favor or in opposition, the Chairman declared the hearing closed. Motion by Selectman Brown, seconded by Selectman Bailey, and unanimously voted to grant permission to the New England Telephone Com- pany to lay and maintain underground conduit and manholes as follows Hayden Avenue, from Spring Street, southeasterly, then easterly, approx- imately 2,280' of underground conduit, also three (3) manholes 54/ 145, 54/146, and 54/147 subject to the condition that the New England Tele- phone Company must reserve ducts for the alarm system to the Hayden Avenue sewerage pumping station and for future fire alarm signals. Mr. O'Connell introduced the members of the newly organized Em- ployee Advisory Safety Board Present and introduced were Mr. William Casey of the School Department, Captain James J. Lima, Jr. of the Police Department; Deputy Roy E Cook of the Fire Department; Mr. David Hughes, Administration, and Mr. Norman Stolz, Brewer t Lord Insurance Agent. This Board will serve in an advisory capacity to reduce hazards Employee and injuries on the job. Through this Board it is hoped to improve Advisory conditions by developing an awareness by paying more attention to Safety safety, such as safety procedures, safety devices, use of safety cloth- Board ing. Safety ought not to be put on a money basis, but the amount of New our yearly insurance must be considered for it is a great amount Our accident record is fair but improvements can be made. Safety govern- ing agencies look toward the future and it is appropriate that the Town address itself to what is now in existence. Mr. O'Connell advised the Board that bids had been received for the contract for the construction of sanitary sewers under Article 20 Award of of the 1970 Annual Town Meeting in Westwood Road, Mill Brook Road, Contract Suzanne Road, Emerson Road, Brent Road, and Concord Avenue. There Sanitary were 15 bids received, the three low bids were received from Grandview Sewer Contracting, Inc., Roslindale, Massachusetts, in the amount of $137, 138, Andreassi Brothers, Inc. , West Roxbury, Massachusetts, in the amount of $145,507, and A.R. Belli , Inc , Newtonville, Massachusetts in the amount of $165,470. Mr McSweeney has recommended that the bid be awarded to Grandview, low bid. Motion by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Brown, and unanimously voted that the contract to construct sanitary sewer under Article 20 of the 1970 Annual Town Meeting in Westwood Road, Mill Brook Road, Suzanne Road, Emerson Road, Brent Road, and Concord Avenue be awarded to Grandview Contracting, Inc. in the amount of $137, 138. Mr. O'Connell 1 would like to inform the Board that the Public Public Works Department has made great progress into the backlog of sewer Works work. Mr. Coscia and I are impressed by the work that has been done Performanc There was work done in difficult areas but the finished jobs look very Commended good. 1 just wanted to make the Board aware of this; I feel that com- mendation is due. 522 v Request for Mr. O'Connell advised the Board that he has received a request Permit Lions from the Lions Club to hold their annual carnival on July 1 through Club Carnival July 4, 1973. The reason for the early request is to ask for first 1973 consideration. It is Mr. O'Connell's opinion to hold on any reply and review the entire past record of such events. Mr. O'Connell presented to the Board for review a Request for Request for Transfer from the Reserve Fund by the Health Department, Personal Transfer of Service Account, for the amount of $925. Mr. O'Connell explained Funds Health that due to illness Mr Belcastro was unable to work for 42 days and Dept. Personal was entitled to pay. An additional man was needed to cover the Service Acct. daily duties and the funds requested are to cover this expense. Motion by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Brown, and unanimously voted to authorize the Chairman to sign the Request for Transfer from the Reserve Fund for the Health Department, Personal Service Account, in the amount of $925. Mr. O'Connell submitted and explained the following Requests Requests for for Transfer of Funds transfer of Funds Account #5450, Public Works Road Repair Account for the amount of $6,000; current balance is $7,900. This problem goes back to the budget decision, previously made Public Works by the Board early in 1972 near the end of the snow season. $4,000 Acct. #5450 had to be spent at that time to replace equipment but there was no attempt made to change the budget. Since that time there have been two big major repairs needed on heavy equipment. Current mainten- ance costs approximately $900 each week. This predicted amount of $6,000 to carry us through the rest of the year is more than the normal amount expended in this area. Account #5700, Sewer Maintenance, for the amount of $15,000; current balance is $1 .98. Public Works Mr O'Connell explained that most of this additional cost will -Account #5700 be offset by the recovery expected under the new pumping station contract. When the new pump station will be in operation we will deduct 7 months expenses due to a run-over period in the contract. To maintain the present station the Town has been put through addi- tional costs in renting additional pumps, chemicals for odors, etc. Right now $15,000 is needed; about $13,000 of this we would expect to recover. Account #5850, Sanitary Landfill , for the amount of $20,000; current balance is $6,700. Mr O'Connell reported that the balance represents the amount Public Works held for the recycling proposal , alteration and construction pro- Account #5850 grams. 523 6 ( I) $10,000 to cover additional costs incurred by Citation from the State Department of Health (2) $10,000 as funds to provide study to determine what the Town should do and how it should go about reaching solution to solid waste violations, wet land areas, drainage of surface water In these areas Mr McSweeney has advised that we must have engi- neering studies to comply with the State requirements. He has a proposal from an engineering firm, but the first step is this $10,000 transfer request. Mr McSweeney I feel that this should be done this year because of the urgency of time. I am reluctant to let this matter wait. I received a Citation from the State Department of Health last February and have not had a chance to meet with those involved. I 've had to take each step as it comes. Selectman Bailey The Sanitary Landfill budget was increased be- cause of needs expected at that time. If this issue would have been brought up early in May, I may have been able to grasp this a little better. Mr. O'Connell If we would have come before you in May, we would not have known what amount of money would be needed. Chairman Kenney Would you expect this firm to have the study completed in time for a recommendation to be made at Town Meeting in March? Selectman Brown Is it so that even if we are in violation of the State Regulations for the Disposal of Solid Wastes by Sanitary Landfill , we are in less violation than our neighboring Towns? Mr. O'Connell This is so, but we are now seeing the result of the pressure by the State on the Town. Selectman Bailey As 1 recollect, the Sanitary Landfill was not on our list of priorities. Chairman Kenney I feel that there should be a re-order of priorities; which of these items are postponable and in what order. The Board agreed to hold on these requests until there is further discussion with the State relative to our financial position at this -time. Chairman Kenney greeted those present relative to the School Street sidewalk and explained lightly the background of the initiating of the sidewalk installation to its present status. School St. Chairman Kenney read a memorandum submitted by Mr. McSweeney, Sidewalk Director of Public Works/Engineering, which referred to an informa- tional meeting held on September 5, 1972 and tree hearings held on September 25, 1972. It was noted that none of the original petitioners for this sidewalk were present at either the informational meeting or the tree hearing, and, of those present, none spoke in favor of the proposed sidewalk. 524 The memo further indicated that based on the opposition of the residents and physical obstructions to the construction, ' he Public Works Department recommends that this project be deleted from Con- tract #72-3-E. Mrs. John W. Steiner, 22 Estabrook Road I am speaking not only for myself but for concerned residents of the conditon of School Street. School age children must cross School Street on their own with no assistance. We want something to be done before a traffic fatality occurs, not afterward. Some few years ago this was consid- ered a residential area but the character of the street has changed; the parents are concerned, School Street is now a thoroughfare. Our survey taken June 24, 1972 showed 162 cars that passed along School Street and 65 to 72 children that had to cross to get to school . The Town's survey showed approximately 300 automobiles and 62 children. There was significant information provided to show the need for a sidewalk on School Street and this was voted at Town Meeting. Then we read about the reversal of this approval to construct a sidewalk. What this boils down to is do you consider the lives of our children first of the lives of trees, etc. Chairman Kenney Do you feel that the children should cross at one location such as they do on Grant Street, or perhaps have the assistance of a Police crossing guide? Mrs. Robert Freeman, 24 Estabrook Road On the side of School Street where there is no sidewalk, I find it very difficult to walk because the banks along the street end abruptly at the side of the street. There is no place to walk other than on the street. There is just no flat surface off the street in sections. At noontime this street is very busy with traffic. Mr Erik Lund, 23 Nickerson Road; My children travel this way to school . 1 travel this way to work and it is a bad situation. There is no sidewalk and no crossing guide. Mrs. Steiner One child was hit by a vehicle; it was not fatal . This child was educated to safety procedure. This situation is very dangerous especially for new children in the area. Mrs. Bruce C. McGee, 69 SchoolSt: lhavefour children who use this route for school . The problem is crossing the street. I have asked the Police to patrol this area. The children do not use the sidewalk that is there now. Another sidewalk will not be the answer; it will not stop speeding. Mr. Peter J Coccoluto, Jr., 15 Nickerson Road; 1 have been be- fore the School Committee on this matter. The problem is crossing School Street. It is the School Committee's feeling that a gathering place is necessary with a crossing guide at a specific location. Another sidewalk is not a necessary first step. The sidewalk on one side of the street is fine and rarely used. Mrs. Michael Cardillo, 38 School Street The problem in this area is that the Town does not patrol the street as they should. I see no need for another sidewalk but I do see a need for better patrols on School Street. 525 Mr Joseph J. Downey, 1 Stimson Avenue I have observed that children ccoss private lawns and Church property then disperse in various locations across the street. Again the problem is crossing the street; a sidewalk is not the answer Perhaps a ( lasing tight properly installed would be effective. Mrs. James J. Scanlon, 66 School Street Eastern Avenue, Ewell Avenue, Grandview Avenue, School Street, Stimson Avenue are all in- volved. The installation of lights and sidewalk may help Most children will not go to a common collection point, they will cross at any point along the way. Children must be indoctrinated as to how to cross a street. Mrs. George R. Heine, 29 Eastern Avenue It has been said by some of you present that children will not pay attention to a crossing guide but I feel that they do. Mrs. John C. Dunnicliffe, 26 Deering Avenue In the winter there are sometimes mounds of snow 8 to 10 times the height of a child. Perhaps a sidewalk is not the solution but we should strive for some solution that is effective. Mr Robert Freedman, 24 Estabrook Road We have been here listen- ing to discussion on how the installation of this sidewalk would work and how it would not work. I don't think it is for us to sit here and try to decide what children would do or would not do. I am shocked at the traffic condition in this area. The children do not have a chance with this dangerous condition, especially in the winter. Some posi- tive decision should be made then go ahead with it for the good and safety of the children. Mr. Coccoluto. We have argued about the need for this sidewalk, listening to views as to why the sidewalk is or is not a necessity. This is neither arbitrary or capricious because you have failed to measure conditions. There seems to be no system for weighing condi- tions. The width of the road should be considered, also winter conditions and the amount of traffic Chairman Kenney I value your thoughts but this situation is just not that clear cut as you can see here tonight. It was noted that should this sidewalk be built it will abut the street leaving no place whatsoever to put the snow during the winter. There were those who expressed concern that well established trees may be destroyed for the installation of this sidewalk. Selectman Bailey: It is evident that we have a substantial prob- lem and it appears that the installation of a sidewalk is not the solution. Selectman Brown I am puzzled because I do not understand what this is all about as I am a new member of the Board. I was at Town Meeting when this sidewalk was voted. 1 was not at the sidewalk hearing because I was at the Selectmen's Meeting. 1 really do not know what brought on this shift that is before the Board this evening. Mr. O'Connell 1 will supply all information to Mr. Brown. This is an unusual situation that we are handling. This has grown from an unusual situation, it does not follow the regular standard procedure. 526 Selectman Riff in suggested that perhaps there should be guides located at specific locations where most needed. Chairman Kenney: Perhaps the Board should again review this request and take the matter under advisement. Mr McSweeney The Police Chief feels that he could not cope with additional crossing guides, he would prefer the sidewalk. From the engineering point of view, the installation of this sidewalk may necessitate a land taking of some few feet, we are not positime•at this time therefore I will hold on comments. Selectman Bailey questioned the possibility of the installation of a pedestrian light at School Street at Massachusetts Avenue, how effective it might be and what procedures would be necessary for its installation. This light could be operated only during the school season. The Board agreed to take the matter under advisement for further review at this time. A letter received from Mrs. Edward E. Furash, 15 John Poulter Road, informing the Board that Saturday, October 21, is "A Day for the President". A rally will be held at Anthony' s Pier 4 in Boston and a cavalcade of cars will leave there to travel through the State. This cavalcade will arrive in Lexington at approximately II 45 a.m. on October 21 . It is their request to stop at the Lexington Green and have the political candidates represented make two minute speeches. The participants would then continue on to Concord, Acton, Request for etc. Permit to The Board discussed the issue of political activities on the Use Green and consideration was given to other locations in the area Lexington that might be appropriate that would be satisfactory to the Massachu- Green setts Federation of Republican Women for holding this event. Chairman Kenney Without taking direct action on this request, the Board would like to discourage the use of the Green for political activities and offer appropriate alternatives. It was agreed that Chairman Kenney will contact Mrs. Furash by telephone to explain the position and policy in question and make alternative suggestions that may be acceptable to this group for their speech making. It was moved by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Rift in and unanimously voted at 9.00 p.m. to go into Executive Session for Executive the purpose of discussing, deliberating or voting on matters which, Session if made public, might adversely affect the public security, the financial interests of the Town or the reputation of a person. After discussion of matters of interest to the Town, it was voted to go out of Executive Session and resume the regular session of the meeting at 9 30 p.m. 527 Chairman Kenney read a request from Mr. Harold MacDonald, President of the Lexington Golf Club for permission to lease or purchase property shown on Assessors' Map 058, Lot 019, (Town-owned) for expansion of their facilities and programs. Their immediate use would be for a teaching and practice area. Every effort would be made to maintain the natural character of the referred site. Mr. O'Connell I have spoken with Mr. Spiros of the Golf Club and he indicated that they are looking into their budget and wondered if the Town would allow them to purchase, lease or otherwise acquire the right to use this land for expansion. This matter has come up before with the Town. This Board of Directors of the Club wanted again to look into this. It was my suggestion that they simply make their request again with the Board. This area was specifically being Lexington considered for veterans' housing, but assuming that this is not the Golf Club case if the Town has some flexibility to act on this If it is the Request to case that the Town is still reluctant to lease the land, then this Lease request can be denied. I would suggest that this situation be ex- Property plored. Chairman Kenney Should we consider the views of other Town Boards in this matter. Selectman Riff in Would the Golf Club still be interested after some time, such as 3 years or 5 years from now. Mr. O'Connell Yes, they would be. There are 18 acres of land involved in this area and Mr. Spiros expressed strong interest in use of some of this area for purposes of practice range perhaps for some fee to the Town. Mr. Brown Would this not require a Board of Appeals hearing? The Board agreed to request of the Planning Board their advisory opinion on this matter. Mr. MacDonald, President of the Golf Club to be so advised. Mrs. Lois Brown, Chairman of the Planning Board met with the Board to advise that the Subregion Intertown Liaison Committee voted to ex- SILC tend an invitation to the Town of Lexington to become a member, whereas Lexington it has beenonly an observer for the past few years. Mrs. Brown further Member- advised that the Planning Board sees the need for regional planning in ship the areas of mass transportation, refuse disposal , Bicentennial and road systems such as the proposed Hartwell Avenue connector. It is the recommendation of the Planning Board that Lexington become a full mem- ber of SILC at this time. Two years ago Lexington was welcomed as an observer by SILC. The Board of Selectmen at that time felt that we should not become a member. The SILC By-Laws were outlined as to organization. Mrs. Brown noted that essentially in the area of regional planning they cover many areas over which we have no jurisdiction. It is the feeling of the Planning Board that as we are in a SILC region we should become active members in order to participate fully in regional and State activities. Lexing- ton can become a member of SILC by the majority vote of the Board of Selectmen, in turn, SILC will accept Lexington as a new member by a majority vote. 52S Motion by Selectman Brown, seconded by Selectman Riff in and unanimously voted to appoint two members to the Subregion Intertown Liaison Committee. Chairman Kenney suggested to Mrs. Brown to submit nominees to be considered for appointment Mrs. Brown in turn requested the Board to submit nominees for consideration. Mr. John R. Caswell , Chairman of Subregion Intertown Liaison Committee, to be advised of Lexington's acceptance of their invita- tion to join SILC. An amendment to the Lexington Traffic Rules and Regulations was submitted to the Board and explained by Mr. McSweeney, Chairman of the Traffic Safety Committee. The change on December 26, 1966 was to be on a temporary basis for two months, now, nearly six years Amendment to later, this is still in effect. This amendment as presented will Traffic Rules make the change permanent and legal . & Regulations It was moved by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Riff in and unanimously voted that the amendment to the Lexington Traffic Rules and Regulations be accepted as follows By deleting from Article VII , Section 1 , Schedule 05 the follow- i ng Location Direction From To Clarke Street Northerly Forest Street Mass. Ave. Muzzey Street Southerly Mass. Ave. Forest Street Raymond Street Westerly Muzzey Street Clarke Street And by adding to same Location Direction From To Clarke Street Northerly Raymond Stteet Mass. Ave. Muzzey Street Southerly Mass. Ave. Raymond Street Chairman Kenney read a request from Berman's Market Inc. for ap- Berman' s proval of transfer of stock. Market Motion by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Brown and Transfer of unanimously voted to approve the request of the transfer of 50 shares Stock of stock presently owned by Edward I . Berman, President of Berman's Market, Incorporated, 55 Massachusetts Avenue, Lexington to Joel G. Berman, son of Myer Berman and current manager of Berman's Market, Incorporated. The Board agreed to submit necessary forms for approval by the Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission. Request for Chairman Kenney read a request from Mr. A. Purney Acker for ex- Sewer Exten- tension of sewer from its present location at 32 Hayes lane to 27 Hayes sion - Hayes 'Lane, an approximate distance of 150 feet. Lane The Board agreed to refer this request to the Engineering Depart- ment for recommendation. Mr. Acker will be so advised. 52 0 Y Mr. O'Connell informed the Board of a request from the American Field Service for permission to display a set of foreign flags around the Lexington Green from November I through 6, 1972. Mr. O'Connell expressed a reservation in grantingthis permis- sion for a period of a full week It is not only a matter of expense, Request for but the practical problem is that flags cannot be displayed for any Permit to length of time without theft unless there is constant patrol . It is Display disgraceful that we can no longer leave flags on public display Flags at because of the increased vandalism, and this is especially so for Lexington flags. Green Mr. McSweeney It seems that a watchman is necessary. Weekdays are somewhat better than Sundays. After some discussion, it was moved by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Brown and unanimously voted that the American Field Ser- vice be granted permission to display a set of foreign flags around the Lexington Green for one day providing that someone is available to oversee the area to discourage vandalism. Mr. O'Connell will contact Miss Laurie Yaffee, President of American Field Service, to explain the decision of the Board. Chairman Kenney read the recommendation submitted by the Planning Board relative to the status of the Vine Brook Bridge, as follows That the bridge not be removed for the present but remain chained and Vine Brook posted. The Planning Board feels that a properly located footbridge Bridge may be a desirable feature; its usefulness and location should be evaluated later, when the homes now under construction on Fairfield Drive are occupied and pedestrian patterns become clear. The Board is waiting further word from the Conservation Commis- sion. It was agreed that no action will be taken on the matter of the Vine Brook bridge at this time. Chairman Kenney read the request for abatement of sewer better- ment from Mrs. Beatrice I . Bergstrom, 497 Concord Avenue. The length of the driveway is more than 600 feet and very low. The cost of con- necting to the sewer line would be too costly. Mrs. Bergstrom feels that she should not have to pay the betterment of $1,411.33 for this Sewer service that she cannot use. Betterment A memorandum submitted by Mr. Martin, Assistant Town Engineer, Deferment explained the details involved. 497 Concord Mr. McSweeney suggested that the Board allow a deferment on Avenue this betterment. Motion by Selectman Brown, seconded by Selectman Bailey and unanimously voted that under the provisions of Chapter 159 of the Acts of 1950, to extend the time for payment of $1 ,411 .33 sewer betterment assessment levied against property owned by Mrs. Beatrice I . Bergstrom and located at 497 Concord Avenue, without interest, until said land or any part thereof is sold or severed, whichever event occurs first, or until the expiration of three years from the date hereof. I 53( Sign Warrant It was moved by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Riffin and State unanimously voted to sign the Warrant for the State Election to be held Election on November 7, 1972 and to set the hours for opening and closing of the polls from 7 00 a.m. to 8 00 p.m. It was moved by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Riffin Liqqor and unanimously voted to authorize the Chairman to sign the Liquor I .D. Card Identification Card for Robert William Armstrong, Jr., 89 Hill Street. It was moved by Selectman Riffin, seconded by Selectman Brown and Minutes unanimously voted toe accept the minutes of the meeting of September 18, 1972, regular and executive session. It was moved by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Brown and , unanimously voted to sign the Memorandum of Agreement with the State Sign State Department of Public Works to construct a Class 1 Bituminous Concrete Agreement Pavement Type I-I ; install drainage and otherwise improve a section Sewer Road- of roadway in Lexington being known as East Street. The work to begin way at at a point about 200 feet east of Lowell Street about Station 6+65 and East Street extend in a westerly direction to about Station 37+50 at Grant Street. Chairman Kenney reported to the Board that there have been numer- ous reports of complaint relative to dumping activity at the Cataldo Farm on Bow Street. The complaints are related to the substances that are dumped It has been expressed that the complainants see no objection to the filling of this area in question with clean fill. 111 Dumping at Our local Board of Health does issue a permit under Regulations Chap- Cataldo ter VI , Section six, to dispose of waste material of any description. Property A violation notice was mailed to Mr. Cataldo on October 3, 1972 Bow Street ordering him to stop using his land for dumping and asked him to file for a permit from the Board of Health. Three site inspections were made since that time to determine compliance with this order. The Board agreed that Mr. Cataldo be advised to file request with the Board of Health for necessary permit and that stipulation be made by the Board of Health fillet only clean fill be dumped. W.H. Lyon Realtors, Inc. submitted their findings on an on-the- Awards of site inspection and appraisal of damages which may result from the Damages taking by the Town of sewer and construction easements as shown on Sewer Ease- a plan entitled "Plan of Sewer Easements from Maple Street to Woburn ments Maple Street" dated July 28, 1972, as requested by Mr. McSweeney, Director to Woburn of Public Works/Engineering. Sts. The Board reviewed same and the recommendations for awards as submitted by William J. Martin, Assistant Town Engineer. It was moved by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Brown and unanimously voted the award of damages in the Woburn Street to Maple Street Trunk Sewer Easement Order of Takings as follows I IBenjamin Franklin Homes, Inc , Maple Street No damages since this makes sewer available to a large tract of subdividable land. George Hamparian, 253 Woburn Street No damages by reason that the permanent easement falls only in that portion of the lot where the zoning by-law already prohibits any uses that would normally be restricted by an easement. Edward H. and Doral Stacey, 245 Woburn Street No damages since their property is affected in the same manner as Hamparian. Lester H. Fogg, off Woburn Street No damages since this is all back land and of little value other than for open space It was moved by Selectman Bailey, seconded by Selectman Brown and unanimously voted to adjourn the meeting at 10 35 p.m. Z4 4 j, I Acting Executive Clerk, Selectman I
