7:05- The meeting was called to order— 201 Bedford Street
1. Main Fire Station —Jeff McElravy (Tecton Architects), John Wilson (Lexington Fire Chieo
Jeff's presentation reviewed the 90% CD estimate. The estimate was also compared with Miyakado,
a 3rd party source.
• Site costs estimates went down. Sewer line replacement showed a decrease, however extra
money has been built in if unexpected developments arise.
• The Building Construction Base Cost and Site Construction Base Cost Differences between
Rider, Levett, Buchnell (RLB) and 3rd party Miyakado were reviewed.
• A duel fuel and natural gas generator was reviewed as an option. After further discussion a
diesel fuel generator would be the best option.
Motion by PBC is to use a Diesel Fuel Generator for the New Fire HQ.
Seconded —APPROVED
Jeff gave an overview of the sub-contractor evaluations. Many of them have good reviews, and
there are some still waiting for references.

2. Westview Cemetery—Justin Humphrey(TBA Architects)
Justin's presentation reviewed changes that have been discussed in the past few months. The plan
is to still to build in a new location within the cemetery, going from a current 2300 sq. ft. building to
3800 sq. ft. This would allow for continued use of the facility during construction.
• The current facility is undersized and in poor condition. The new facility would provide an
appropriate visitor/bereavement area that does not exist with the current facility. Administration
and the waiting area would be segregated from the operation/maintenance area of the building.
• The operation side of the facility would include landscaping and ground maintenance, burial
equipment storage, 3 bay garage, and workroom.
• The new location would open up more desirable land for gravesite development where the
current facility exists, and improve traffic flow helping to alleviate in/out traffic on Bedford Street.
• Elevation and materials were discussed. Sustainable design was briefly reviewed and the option
for further sustainable review can be done at Design Development.
This revised plan presented an option for incorporating a Crematory. It was stated that further
direction is needed with the Board of Selectman.
PBC asked how they vet the program for use and needs. Justin has a comprehensive study from
earlier which can be provided to the board.
Motion to adjourn was made and seconded: Meeting adjourned at 8:40pm.
