(REVISED 4/20/2018) AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY LEXINGTON BOARD OF SELECTMEN MEETING AGENDA ITEM TITLE: 2018 ATM Article Article 42-Balanced Housing Bylaw(20 min.) PRESENTER: ITEM NUMBER: Board Discussion 1.2 SUMMARY: The Board will discuss the action taken on April 11, 2018 at Town Meeting and the potential reconsideration in regard to 2018 ATM Article 42 - Balanced Housing Bylaw. Attached is information from the Chairman of the Planning Board regarding reconsideration of Article 42. SUGGESTED MOTION: FOLLOW-UP: DATE AND APPROXIMATE TIME ON AGENDA: 4/23/2018 6:10 p.m. ATTACHMENTS: Description Type Mom)Frroml'B(' ar rr Rojg,,udh)g,R consklorratronn M ArrtYckl 42 Rackrrk,Matorria( I plan to seek reconsideration of Article 42 at the April 23 session of Town Meeting. To do so, I must "present compelling new information that (1) wasn't previously available at the time the earlier action was taken, and (2) might result in members taking a different action from the one previously voted". I believe those two thresholds are reached. During my presentation on the motion, I stated that the Planning Board and staff had resources to carry out the Planning Board's current Work Plan but did not have resources to allow staff to take on the additional work of a referred Article 42, which is not a Work Plan component. That was the basis of our recommendation. Information which is new to us is that the Selectmen asked the Town Manager for options for allocating funding specifically for the Article 42 referral. We have also learned from the Town Manager that Town Meeting could allocate additional resources by amending Article 4 the FY2019 operating Budget, to enable the Planning Board and Planning Department to work on a referred Article 42. If that was known to us on April 11, I would have moved to amend Mrs. McKenna's motion by inserting the Planning Board in place of the Selectmen as the referred Board. I would have articulated that should Town Meeting decide to refer, that we would be the appropriate Board. I then would have urged Town Meeting to defeat the motion to substitute because its only purpose would be to stifle debate on key issues. We wished to hear the merits of the Article discussed. I would have explained that whether Town Meeting voted no on the original motion, or voted to refer, the Planning Board would have taken either outcome as a referral. The two-year clock would have no consequence to us. Debate on the merits of the proposal and a negative vote on the rezoning would have informed the Planning Board and Mr. Daggett on how to proceed. With a debate on the merits, the Planning Board would have been better informed to know whether Mr. Daggett could do a rewrite over the Summer to address specific deficiencies, or if we would need to wait the outcome of the Comprehensive Plan, or something in-between. At that point we would have known if a motion to amend Article 4 was needed. The Planning Board will discuss reconsideration at its April 23 meeting at 5:30 PM in the Parker Room. Myself and the Selectman Chair and Town Manager have agreed to schedule a joint Planning Board/Selectmen meeting on April 23 at 6:30 PM in the Selectmen's Meeting Room before Town Meeting to discuss these issues. I am hopeful that we can come to Town Meeting with a mutually agreeable way forward.
