Building Performance Guidelines (Mark Sandeen)
• Mark Sandeen provided an update of the building performance guidelines being
developed for the Hasting building project.
• The design team agreed to implement enhanced filtration and building
performance monitoring.
• The design team pushed back on solar installation. Solar options (with
coordination of space with HVAC) need to be developed.
• Also pushed back against all-electric options, but since the LEED assessment
is based on use, not dollars, it might be able to be reassessed.
• The 600 ppm target for CO2 is considered to be a challenge. Options were
discussed for achieving 800ppm CO2.
Lexington Energy Challenge (T. Rhodes)
• The National Grid Community Incentive program has started. Our goal is 1,200
Home Energy Assessments in2018. If we meet the goal, the town should earn about
$45,000.
Historic Preservation Building Guidelines (M. Sandeen)
• Committee reviewed the guidelines provided to the Historic Preservation Committee.
