[LincolnTalk] ISO car for Local Ukrainian Boy

[brianna doo]

A Ukrainian woman who has been living in Lincoln for the past two years with 
her son and daughter recently returned home with her daughter. The son is 
currently enrolled in two local universities and is driving between the two. He 
reached out to me this past week because their car is unable to be repaired. If 
anyone is looking to sell a vehicle for 10k or less, please respond to me 
directly and I will pass along his number to you. 

*Lev asked me to post for him as well as share his number with anyone who is 
able to help. 

Thanks!
Brianna

Farms' 50th Anniversary Year events and we are grateful for the opportunity to 
learn more about the people that helped create the farm we so value. All are 
welcome, and we hope to see you! Light nibbles and drinks will be served.

Lincoln has always done better than this.  We can always rezone "mixed use" acres if we want to, while still requiring what we have always required - 15-25% affordable, diversity of housing, 100 feet from wetlands, etc.

I'm not sure why we are playing this game of hide the 'expected' developments.



It is true that very little in life is guaranteed. However, I think smart citizens should expect development to follow zoning.  Cautious citizens should definitely be prepared and expect for it to follow.  I think it is safe to say that the HCAWG also
 appears to expect development to follow the zoning based on today's meeting, when more low impact zoning ideas were rejected in favor of the current set and "getting something" as I believe was said at the time.


There are huge financial incentives that have made the idea of joining the HCA zoning attractive to property owners and potential developers.  Unfortunately some of those incentives might be directly at odds with the town's interests.



The Mall has gotten the most attention, as RLF has been the only property owner that has publicly stated that they plan to develop.  But realistically, it is just one of the new developments that would likely follow.


After all, if Doherty's is indeed leaving, zoning it for over 20 housing units makes a very strong financial incentive to build something along those lines at that location.  Being zoned mixed use doesn't require any commercial return and we could as a
 town see an actual decline in our commercial center as a result of the new zoning proposals.


If "Codman corner"  is zoned for 83 units on 4 acres, there is a very strong financial incentive to build those 83 units there. If Codman is zoned at 180 units, then there will be a very strong financial incentive to build 180 units on the street.  


All of these potential developments would be done under the new zoning without the normal town approval process and without any remaining sticks to encourage affordability above 10%, green energy goals, or almost any other concerns the town might have.

think it's important people understand about whom we're talking.  I thought
I saw one post which said we should be in support of Palestinians as
well... which we would be affirming with a statement of support for semitic

[LincolnTalk] Recreate a song

[Laura Crosby]

Hi Talkers,
A good friend is celebrating his 70th birthday in December. I’m looking for 
someone who can take a popular song and put new witty words to it based on 
basic facts about the guy. If you or someone you know is clever about these 
things please let me know. Many thanks,
Laura Crosby

Re: [LincolnTalk] Dry Cleaners

[Margaret Olson]

I use the dry cleaners in Lincoln next to the inbound train, kind of behind
the new location for the art gallery. You drive in just parallel to the
tracks on the codman side of the tracks. The owner also does repairs and he
will wash (not dry clean) a quilt. I do not use the ones right in the mall
near twisted tree as they over press trousers every single time no matter
what you say.
