BOS meeting 08/15/2016
Our water system is experiencing low pressures in the northwest corner of the Town specifically in the
Grove St, McKeever Dr., and Heritage Dr., area, which are among the highest locations in the Town. The
Town's water demand has dramatically increased and is due to the lack of rainfall and excessive heat. This
region of Massachusetts is currently experiencing a severe drought that began in June. However, the low
pressures occur only during a certain time of the day, from about 5:30 am to about 8:30 am in the area I
mentioned. The low pressure in this area is not a consistent issue throughout the 24 hour day. This time
period is when water usage is at its highest because it is when people began their day and take showers,
wash clothes, water lawns, fills pools and wash cars to name a few. This is why demand peaks within
these early morning hours as compared to other times of the day.
We were informed of the low pressures in the McKeever Drive area from residents on or about June 20tn
and immediately began an investigation.
1. First we contacted the MWRA and asked them if they could help us with measuring pressures to
confirm the findings of the residents. They were very helpful and allowed us to borrow two
hydrant pressure recorders and a portable computer to program and download the data from the
recorders. We have been recording pressure data since June 24tn
2. We contacted Bedford to find out how often they drew water from our system at their meters.
Bedford would draw water at times that were within the 5:30 am to 8:30 am time period. They
assisted with adjusting the settings at their meters to draw water outside 5:30 am to 8:30 am
block of time.
3. Next, we asked the Parks and Grounds Superintended for assistance with reducing water demand
during the 5:30 am to 8:30 time period and he shifted irrigating the municipal grounds to times
before or after that time period. Bedford has also shifted their municipal irrigating before or after
this time period.
4. To assist us, the MWRA opened the larger piped by-pass water main at each of the meters that
supply Lexington and our customers, allowing for more water to help meet the higher than usual
demand.
Our plans going forward are to:
1. Reconnect a water main on Eldred Rd. that ties into our water mains on Bedford Street and Grove
Street.
2. Continue to work with Bedford to adjust their setting that determine when they draw water from
the Town through their meters.
3. Work with the MWRA to find ways of resolving our low pressure. We are currently working
together to establish how our water system is operating by monitoring pressures in our larger
diameter pipes at various locations throughout the Town.
In addition, we may request assistance from our residents through a voluntary action to shift their outside
water usage to before 5:30 am and after 8:30 am to reduce water demand. Reduction in demand for
water during those peak usage hours may ease the low pressure issues our residents are experiencing in
the McKeever Drive area.

PRESENTER: ITEM
NUMBER:
Carl F. Valente, Town Manager
1.8
SUMMARY:
The draft warrant for the Special Town Meeting includes an Article for the purchase of 171-173 Bedford
Street. State law requires that the Board of Selectmen designate this as a unique property for the Town's
purposes. That is, that the location of this property meets certain criteria for the Town that other properties do
not provide. In this case the unique criteria is that this property allows the Town to use it as swing-space while
the main fire station is renovated. Because of critical response times, only limited locations for a temporary fire
station can be considered. The notice must appear in the Central Register for 30 days before the Town can
purchase this property.
SUGGESTED MOTION:
Move to approve and sign the notice of unique real property as follows: (read the attached notice into the
record of this meeting)
FOLLOW-UP:
Town Manager's Office and Town Counsel will advertise this vote of the Board into the Central Register.

RECORD OF VOTE OF THE LEXINGTON BOARD OF SELECTMEN
August 15, 2016
At a duly called public meeting of the Lexington Board of Selectmen on August 15, 2016, the
Board voted as follows:
That the Board has determined that advertising under General Laws Chapter 30B for the Town's
acquisition of the following parcel of real property will not benefit the governmental body's
interest due to the unique qualities of the property:
Land containing approximately 2.77 acres commonly known as 171-173 Bedford Street
in Lexington and identified on Lexington Assessor's Map 64 as Lot 76 (the "Property").
Specifically, the Property contains a sufficient amount of land in a highly advantageous location
for which the Town can set up a temporary fire station while the existing fire station undergoes
renovation. Given the geographic restrictions as they relate to response times for a fire
department serving the public and the need for continued public safety during the renovation of
the existing fire station, the Property is ideally suited for use by the Town of Lexington for this
purpose.

Dear Lexington Selectmen,
LexFUN! (Lexington's Five& Under Network) is once again planning for our annual
Halloween Parade. As you know, every year we have organized a "parade" of preschoolers
in costume around the Battle Green, followed by refreshments and arts and crafts across
from the Green, near the grounds of Buckman Tavern. Donations from parade attendees will
go to support the Lexington Food Pantry.
We are writing to you for permission for the event, which we'd like to schedule for
10:OOAM-12:30PM on Saturday, October 29th (with a rain date scheduled for Sunday, October
30th). In addition to the use of the Green for the parade, we would request to set up a few
tables near Buckman Tavern for the refreshments and arts and crafts. Please note that in
addition to the Board of Selectmen, we will also seek approval from the Town Manager, Health
Department and Police Department.
We acknowledge there has been one resident who has raised concern with toy weapons in
public places in years past. In all the years we have run the Halloween Parade, we have never
had any issues arise out of toy weapons at the parade and we look forward to keeping it that
way. While LexFUN! does not prohibit any particular costume, we encourage parents to use
their good judgment in selecting costumes. LexFUN! promotes a safe and inclusive
environment for the parade, one that respects social, generational, and cultural differences. We
encourage costumes that are family friendly (not scary to our little ones) and portray positive
images to our children. This dual message of"good judgment" and "family friendly" appears in
our member-wide communications and our publicity for the parade.
We look forward to receiving the Board of Selectmen's permission for this event. We can be
reached at either Lalberta@gmail.com or 508-944-2458 if you have any additional questions.
Sincere
Laur Alberta-Wszolek and Shan l on Duffy
