It has been ten years since the idea for a Lincoln Community Center was launched. Over this decade, many committees have met, large community meetings have discussed ideas and town meetings were presented with potential plans. Folks at the COA and the Lincoln Select Board have patiently promoted

Re: [LincolnTalk] Waiting for Andy Payne

I agree with you Andy. The school cost has already put a big burden on taxpayers. Another tax hike means losing more long term residents, many of whom are elderly. Building a community center to service the elderly, among others, makes no sense if the cost drives the elderly out of town. I

Re: [LincolnTalk] Waiting for Andy Payne

As someone you has attended the meetings it is going to be very hard to keep the cost under 20 million or even 30 unless we really scale it down.  I meet too many people in town that are having a hard time aging in place and paying their taxes.  Also if we want a diverse community as well as an

Re: [LincolnTalk] Waiting for Andy Payne

Thanks Bob. I agree. Andy did a great job of expelling the technical aspects of our town's financial capacity. And, he did offer the disclaimer that this has no bearing on an individual household’s capacity to absorb the increase in property taxes. Let me repeat that-the borrowing capacity of

I concur that Andy did an excellent job presenting some important facts that can help inform our decision to vote Yes or No in support of the proposed community center project. I still have some questions and concerns... >From the presentations last night, two items that stood out to me include:

Re: [LincolnTalk] Community Center Building Committee- Why Build A New Community Center?

I agree with you Margaret. We would need a custodian for the community center too - likely more than one for a building of 25,000 sqft. Sarah Chester (a CCBC member) shared an estimate of 1.5 custodians needed during the state of the town meeting yesterday. Abby Butt (COA director) also

Re: [LincolnTalk] Community Center Building Committee- Why Build A New Community Center?

I'm a little confused about the argument that after hours use of the school requires the cost of a custodian as a reason to build a Community Center. Surely many many years of a custodian salary are far less than a new building. And if the Community Center is going to be a gathering place it has

Re: [LincolnTalk] Community Center Building Committee- Why Build A New Community Center?

The school cannot be used during the school day, and to use after hours requires the cost of a custodian. The current facilities are inadequate and have been for a long time. Further delay will probably increase the cost of a new building. The time to act is now. Sent from my T-Mobile 5G
