As I was looking up the warrants
<http://www.lincolntown.org/1419/Town-Meeting-2023> mentioned here regarding
electric-only future development, I ran across the following, which I hadn't
heard about before:
> 6. Article 25 Zoning Bylaw Cluster Development: The Board proposes to amend
> Section 6.6 Cluster Developments to comply with State law by removing the
> specific mandates requiring that a proponent of a cluster development give
> the Town and /or the Lincoln Land Conservation Trust interest in land as part
> of the approval process. To have the Zoning Bylaw comply with current
> language of M.G.L. c.40A, the language will be revised to allow a proponent
> to choose between conveying land to the Town for park, recreation, or open
> space purposes OR having the land subject to a recorded use restriction
> enforceable by the Town or a non profit organization whose principal purpose
> is the conservation of open space. To review the full text, please use this
> link.

From reading the referenced link, I couldn't tell what part of MGL 40A is
thought to be in conflict with the existing Zoning Bylaw, or how the changes
resolve such a conflict. The only substantive change I could see was the
removal of LLCT from the Zoning Bylaw. Is something happening to LLCT?
Existing: Open Land shall be owned by the Town, LLCT, or an association of the
land owners that grants a permanent conservation restriction.
Proposed: Open Land shall be owned by the Town or made subject to a recorded
use restriction enforceable by the Town or a non-profit organization.
