Re: [LincolnTalk] INF: CCBC Has reduced space but questions remain about cost

2023-05-23 Thread ANDREW PANG
Hi, Sara,
 
I don't know that I ever had plans or documents with square footage of the 
Hartwell building, nor do I recall that those figures were in the lease.
 
Magic Garden has four classrooms, an office, a small conference room, and a 
kitchen in Hartwell.  Roughly estimating from the other classrooms, offices, 
meeting room, and special services rooms (PT, e.g.) on the two levels in 
Hartwell, I would guess Magic Garden leases 20-25% of the building's usable 
space.  That excludes hallways & stairs and the large, lower-level space used 
by LPS Maintenance.  Outdoors, there is one fenced playground adjacent to the 
entrance dedicated to MG.

Re: [LincolnTalk] INF: CCBC Has reduced space but questions remain about cost

2023-05-22 Thread ANDREW PANG
Hi, Andy.
 
Can you please shed light on where you see space for Magic Garden specified?
 
When I look at the building program analysis here: 
https://lincolncommunitycenter.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/2023-05-17-Programming-Material.pdf
I see space for LEAP (after-school care and programming), but not Magic Garden. 
 Where are you looking?
 
Magic Garden is a private, non-profit early education and care organization 
that leases space in the Hartwell Building from the Lincoln Public Schools.  
For many years, Magic Garden has undertaken occasional joint programming with 
the COA that entails intergenerational interaction.  This would be facilitated 
by the COA's relocation to the Hartwell campus, but is not a primary driver of 
the proposed CC location nor would it entail any dedicated space for Magic 
Garden in the new center.  Perhaps there was some reference to this as an 
example of an activity that could occur in the new center.
 
Magic Garden has historically also engaged with the Parks & Rec. Dept., for 
example by using a Pod for indoor physical activity and paying for swim lessons 
at Codman Pool in the summer.

Very responsive and very reasonable rates.  He comes to examine the property 
first.  If the infestation is small, he can usually do it that day.  If it is 
extensive, he schedules a date later.  Will return at no additional charge if 
he misses any or it reappears with in a year.

Only downside: he can be booked up for month ahead.

Re: [LincolnTalk] Tree House

In Lincoln, tree houses are considered ancillary structures and require a

other regulations.  We've known a couple of families who got into trouble with 
unpermitted tree-houses.  Check with the Building Inspector's office as you

Re: [LincolnTalk] Slack instead of Mailman?

2022-11-14 Thread ANDREW PANG
If using Google Groups or Groups.io requires having a Google account and 
logging in to that, no thanks.  As with Slack, that is an extra step, and an 
extra place to go to read the LT messages.  The beauty of the email-based list 
is that it's right in with other daily communication.  It is so basic that it 
works for all, whereas I suspect any "other 'modern' group communication 
platform" may require a subscription, which is a turnoff, regardless if it is 
free.

I know some people are logged in to Google all the time, but not everyone wants 
to do that.

Re: [LincolnTalk] Poison ivy near fruit and berries

2022-05-26 Thread ANDREW PANG
I highly recommend Pesky Pete's Poison Ivy Control. He physically pulls 
out--roots and all--the poison ivy (wearing full protections) and hauls it away 
for disposal.   Then, he'll return at no charge later if any reappears or just 
to do a scan for it.

Unfortunately, he is usually scheduled several months out, so he may not be 
available to immediately solve your problem.

Re: [LincolnTalk] Recommendations for private street snow removal

2022-02-08 Thread ANDREW PANG
Dear Jacqueline:

While changing providers might be a solution, I think more pertinent is what 
expectations you set in advance with any provider--and get in writing as 
commitments from them.  Have you discussed what you want with your current plow 
company?  They might be unable or unwilling to meet your standards, or might do 
so for a higher fee.  You'll have to see what your fellow homeowners are 
willing to pay for.  Our homeowners association has a very detailed, 3-page 
contract with our plow company that spells out what we want from them and they 
price services accordingly.

To be frank, our street is an icy mess now, too.  Why?  The last snow/sleet/ice 
storm was less than 2 inches in depth and our contract calls for them to plow 
only for 2 inches or more--we're unwilling to pay for plowing small 
accumulations, and usually that works out fine.  We also do not require them to 
pre-treat the pavement before storms, which Lincoln does on public roads and 
makes a big difference.  So, this week our company has done precisely what we 
asked of them and contractracted for: nothing.  Then, sun and traffic caused 
some melting, which partly refroze before the rains last night.  When 
circumstances conspire in this way, any homeowners can just call to ask for 
plowing or sanding the road, but the company does not have carte blanche to do 
services (and bill).

Mainly, my point is not to assume that just changing contractors will get the 
results you seek.  Talking it through in detail and getting the agreement in 
writing is more likely to succeed--whether with a new contractor or your 
existing one.

Re: [LincolnTalk] Spray foam insulation rec?

2022-01-16 Thread ANDREW PANG
We used The Green Cocoon over 10 years ago at the recommendation of our 
contractor. Very satisfied--both then and over time. https://thegreencocoon.com/

Be clear if you want closed cell or open cell foam and what material 
(petroleum-based [like Icynene brand], chemical-based, plant-based, etc.) you 
want. Different products are better for different uses, in addition to 
environmental concerns, and not all companies sell all kinds of products.

Re: [LincolnTalk] Cardboard is a precious resource—Please recycle it Lincoln!

2021-12-29 Thread ANDREW PANG
I'm confused, Staci.  Paper and cardboard used to have a separate container at 
the dump [sorry, I know it's not one but one syllable is so much easier than 
four, and everyone understands] but more recently, I thought cardboard goes in 
with the commingled paper, plastics, aluminum, and steel cans.  Your messages 
says cardboard is "near the other mix recycling."  Is there now (again) a 
separate place for cardboard  (and paper?)

Re: [LincolnTalk] Next school COVID tests Monday

2021-12-15 Thread ANDREW PANG
I would like to point out that emails from Lincoln Schools include the 
disclaimer, "In compliance with MGL C.66, all email correspondence to and from 
the Lincoln Public Schools is archived and may be a public record."  Because of 
this, staff do not send confidential information or attachments (such as IEPs 
or testing results) via email and advise parents not to write anything in an 
email or send attachments that they do not want made public.

So, while emails may be addressed to parents because they are the recipients of 
immediate concern, they do not contain confidential health information and 
there is no legal basis for expecting them to remain exclusive to the parent 
community, and no justification for demanding that they be.  I agree with 
Barbara Low that there is significant public benefit to distributing the 
"anonymized," summary data about the COVID testing results in our schools and 
in the Town generally.

What is that old advice about never putting anything in writing that you 
wouldn't want published in the newspaper?  The School District and the School 
Committee member's actions are in line, as is LincolnTalk's permitting the 
posting.

Re: [LincolnTalk] school raffles

2021-11-10 Thread ANDREW PANG
The Town Clerk issues raffle permits, not the state.
See regulations here: https://www.mass.gov/guides/guidance-on-raffles

And yes, charitable raffles are thoroughly regulated because plenty of people 
have used "charitable intent" as a cover for fraud. I, for one, am glad that 
our Commonwealth helps protect kind-hearted people from being "taken," even if 
it means a bit of paperwork for organizations.

It is important to note that the IRS does not consider the price of a raffle 
ticket to be a charitable donation unless you win the raffle.

[LincolnTalk] Water main break on Route 2-A

2021-11-01 Thread ANDREW PANG
If you're in North Lincoln and without water, it's because of a break along 
Route 2-A.  Crews are on-site to fix it but the timetable for repair is 
unknown, according to the Water Dept.

Once water service is restored, they recommend running the COLD water for a 
time to flush out any brown water that may come through.

We're between 2 and 2-A.  Power is fine.

Re: [LincolnTalk] We are about to get redistricted… again… maybe… probably

2021-10-14 Thread ANDREW PANG
Sara (et al),

That map shows not Needham but all of Wellesley and Weston joining the 
southwestern part of Lincoln (Precinct #1) in the proposed House district.  
Wellesley voters will surely outnumber Weston and half of Lincoln and be the 
dominant constituency.  Lincoln is small to begin with and I may be naive, but 
it is hard to imagine an elected official attending much to <1,500 voters in 
one precinct among 40,000 in her/his district.  But you are correct that Alice 
Peisch currently represents Wellesley.  The proposed district is #14, the same 
number as Ms. Peisch's current district.

The map shows Precinct #2 of Lincoln in a proposed district with all of 
Carlisle, 2/3 of Concord, half of Acton and half of Chelmsford.

Lincoln hasn't been split between two House districts in the 19 years I've 
lived here, but perhaps it was at some earlier time.  It would be interesting 
to learn the experiences of other town split among representatives to see if 
that earns them more attention (becuase they have 2+ reps looking after their 
needs) or less (because their voices are diluted).

Here is a link to Pesky Pete's web page:  
https://www.peskypetespoisonivyremoval.com/

We've used him for infestations in a few spots over the years and are very 
satisfied customers.
