At a meeting of the Planning Board held March 5, 1923
in Carey Hall, the following members were present; William A.
Ballard, Willard D. Brown, and Henry L. Wadsworth.
Mr. Neil Mackintosh and his Engineer, Mr. Gannett
appeared before the Board and requested its . approval of
a street lay -out shown on a plan of Mr. Gannett's of a develop-
ment to be had on the land on the Waltham Road beyond the StAtO
Road on the right.
Mr. Duffy, our Engineer, was present and showed the
Board the lsy-out which he had made and both plans were dis-
cussed at length.
No official action was taken by the Planning Board but
it was VOTED:
To instruct the Chairman of the Board, Mr. Ballard to
meet with the Selectmen in regard to the lay -out and explain that
the Planning Board is willing to approve of the ^lan showing the
two main thoroughfares indicated on Gannett`s plan but object,'
to the projecting of a street up the steep grade to the small rec-
tangular piece of land shorn on the plan, and that the Board
also feels that a modification in the lay -out of the cross street
near waltham Street on the further end of the lay -out should be
changed to extend over in the direction of and as near as possi-
ble to the drainage area in that section.
It was the unaminous oVini.on of the Board that Spring
Street should be widened as a part of the development shown on
this plan but no definate action was taken on this phase of the
matter.
