A special meeting of the Lexington Planning
Board was held on Wednesday, May 2 1, 1958, at 7:00

action on the Winchester Development Corp 's appli-
cation for tentative approval of a preliminary sub-
division plan. Present were Chairman Grindle,
Members Abbott, Burnell, and Jaquith, and Planning
Director Snow.
Reviewed by the Board were pencil studies of DeVRIES
the proposed location of Emerson Road and several
schemes for the development of the Chapman, Tocci, WINCHESTER
Smith and DeVries (Winchester Development Corp. ) DEVELOP-
lands in relation to said road. These were com- MENT CORP.
pared with studies showing how lands abutting that
of the Winchester Development Corp. could be sub- SUN
divided if said corporation 's plan were extended VALLEY II
into said abutting lands. It was noted that some
sections of these lands could not be developed
economically or would have to be wasted if the
corporation's plan were carried out. Thereupon,
11 upon motion duly made and seconded, it was unan-
imously
VOTED : that the preliminary subdivision plan en-
titled "Sun Valley II Lexington, Mass. ",
dated April 15, 1958, submitted to the
Board on April 21, 1958, be and hereby is
disapproved for the reason that the loca-
tion of the proposed streets do not connect
to the adjacent lands in a way which allows
them to be developed properly.
The meeting adjourned at 7:30 p.m.
Thomas S. Grindle,
Chairman
