Re: [LincolnTalk] Power outage

Just before 700, a significant tree fell across Weston Road near Pierce Park - occurring just ahead of where my wife was driving. The tree was suspended across fallen snapped wires - accompanied by flashes of light. She called 911 and turned around, seeing fire and police responding promptly. Stay

Re: [LincolnTalk] Last Night's Community Center Forum

I urge people not to put this project off. The escalation in building costs in the last few years has been breathtaking.  If we put it off, we won't be able to afford it at all. The plan is not yet final. The Committee will hear and act on your ideas. Give them a chance. I am strongly in favor

Hello Lincoln, As a resident of the Town of Lincoln for @20 years who now resides in 01776 I can tell you it was always a struggle to read these discussions and know my voice is not really wanted. It is not what the town expects to have someone who gives a view that overturns the apple car

Re: [LincolnTalk] Last Night's Community Center Forum

Lynne, Karla and David make excellent points. One of the challenges the town faces with the community center is the lack of trust in the building committee to size a COA/ParksRec building to meet our needs and not our wishes. I believe the major hill the community is trying to climb is how many s

Re: [LincolnTalk] Last Night's Community Center Forum

Reinforcing Lynne's point - there are not insignificant costs req'd of re-use of existing buildings- especially those anticipating assembly type spaces with higher use and occupancy. These start w/ the design team fees for professional assessment and recommendations to which cost estimates must be

Re: [LincolnTalk] Last Night's Community Center Forum

As I noticed during the School project, there is a strong over-building lobby in town. People think that large projects will add value to property etc (possibly does) . Some sell and leave. Let us be conservative, let us not urbanize the town. I appeal to the leaders to contain the costs. Best re

Re: [LincolnTalk] Last Night's Community Center Forum

The 2015 study looked at building a new, all-in community center at each site. What we need now is to look at supplementing activities in other sites around town. The charge from the November 2022 town meeting specifically mentions this as an option for the committee. Voters assumed the committee w

To those interested. All available  existing town bldgs have been looked at MULTIPLE TIMES and need much renovation at considerable expense. Unfortunately because not only LEAP but P&R need space. So the cost has now increased. By using other bldgs their is rent and owner requirements.  And woul

Re: [LincolnTalk] Last Night's Community Center Forum

In my opinion, the proposals the CCBC is putting forward are flawed because the basic premises upon which the building has been dimensioned are greatly overstated. Multiple residents have brought this up, but the committee has not taken the feedback into consideration. To begin with, activity room

I know Minuteman Commons complained quite vociferously several years ago about planes being allowed to idle with engines blasting. We’re right behind the runways and it was awful!

What should we complain about?  Are they allowed to fly at all hours?  Are there limits to where they fly?  I don't want to complain if that is what is expected.  I agree that the amount of traffic has really increased recently, and they seem to fly at all hours of the night. On Tuesday, Sep

Re: [LincolnTalk] Hanscom Noise Hotline

Flights are directed by wind and weather, it is merely an inconvenience as most flights actually take off and land over Concord and Bedford, rarely outside of small aircraft take off over Lincoln, those are facts that can be proved by FAA data.
