Lexington, Mass.
January 10, 1928.
Present: Messrs. Emery, Cutler, Duffy and Milne, also
Engineer Cosgrove.
There was a discussion of the status of the
Lexington Park development resulting from an inquiry
from the engineer respecting the present owners and
that property as to the status of the lay -out of streets.
It was found that the action taken by Griswold on the
adjoining development had prejudiced the street location
plan for the Lexington Park area, and it would be necessary
to work out some scheme to harmonize these two developments.
Mr. Griswold was asked to bring Mr. Bellamy, the engineer
for Griswold,together with Mr. Branch, the engineer for
the Lexington Park development and to scheme out a
reasonable arrangement.
' Mr. Cosgrove exhibited sketch plan for a
possible service street paralleling the railroad in the
rear of the present town hall lot. He stated that these
plans were prepared at the suggestion of the present
owners of the town hall and adjacent properties and had
not been reviewed by them. It is said that no information
has been given by these parties as to their proposed
development in this area. He was advised to get in
touch with these parties and to secure from them a definite
statement as to what they propose before spending his
time in laying out possible schemes.
The matter of a possible candidate for the
vacancy on the Board left by Mr. Freeman was discussed,
but no action was taken other than to suggest that Mr.
Worthen be urged to resume his service with the Board.
W. D. Milne,
Clerk.
