You are ignoring the controls provided by the actual zoning bylaw for these new by-right parcels. This is just scaremongering.

Thanks for asking.
What I want is a well thought out design process, which cannot happen with all of these points up in the air at the same time.
We need more time. We have more time.
I’m worried about large monolithic housing structures in the mall parking lot and eventually replacing Donelan’s and on the commuter rail parking lot as well. And maybe even Doherty will have four stories with a special permit from the planning board
I just don’t see how this doesn’t happen once this property is HCA zoned and turned over to a for profit developer
They won’t want commercial, they won’t want a community center. All they want is luxury housing and parking. And they will get exactly what they want because these parcels are zoned as HCA and the zoning bylaws permit without a special permit
If you are in doubt or if you think we need more time, please vote for option E
Rob
Do you want a community center at the mall or do you want affordable housing and commercial space? Can you please make up your mind?
Agreed, great idea!
Only option E would allow community center at the Mall
Else, RLF will sell to the highest bidder under HCA zoning for housing.
Rob I too support Ken Hurd's recommendation that the Community Center be included as part of the redevelopment of the Lincoln Station area.
Please write in - "None of the Above" on the article at the Special Town meeting.
