Let me repeat what I expressed five years ago.
The redesign of Lincoln Station to a populated Town Center
would need substantial infrastructure development like
two lane roads, open areas, parking spaces and playgrounds.
I visited Newton Center yesterday. This place was a sleepy
corner when we

I doubt that the additional housing supply would materially impact housing
values in Lincoln (unless they make it a less desirable place to live).
Lincoln is not an island, but rather part of the Boston metro. The 600
housing units we are talking about won't substantially change supply around

I agree with including "Not Comply" as an option to vote on. What do we gain
by rushing to comply with the state's guidelines? Has anyone done a real
cost-benefit analysis for Lincoln residents if we increase census to these
numbers--including increased cost

I realize now that you were talking about the links embedded in the
document which are, indeed, broken.
Sorry for the confusion.

but not adequate housing for them.

I have been hesitant to engage in the housing discussion on LincolnTalk,
