Are you also speaking as a member of Fin comm? It would be much more transparent if members of town boards would include their respective board in their email signature when commenting on town matters in LincolnTalk (especially when voicing your own biased opinion).
It’s also worth noting that we are currently in compliance, and will be for all of 2024 and qualify for all the funds being discussed. If our water mains can’t last a couple more months after December 2024 until the town is able to make an informed decision, then why haven’t we applied for these funds now while we are still in compliance? This rush towards December 2024 is unnecessary. Especially when 4 story 48’ buildings with no lot limits (besides 25’ setbacks) at the mall are being discussed in planning board meetings… Sarah Postlethwait On Wed, Nov 22, 2023 at 5:47 PM Rich Rosenbaum <[email protected]> wrote: > > *It’s a little like asking us to make a YUGE leap of faith.* > > An alternative would be to take a different leap of faith that none of the > following happen: > > - we end up delaying so much that we miss the deadline for complying > - we no longer qualify for state funding for needed repairs and > replacement of our past-the-expiration-date water mains > - we end up with a bond to pay for a very, very large bill to keep clean > water flowing to our faucets > > Rich > (speaking as a citizen of Lincoln) > > > On Wed, Nov 22, 2023 at 5:01 PM Sara Mattes <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Amen. >> It’s a little like asking us to make a YUGE leap of faith. >> It makes the argument that we should proceed with extreme caution and not >> make any changes where these questions might come into play, esp. a >> challenge to our wetlands bylaw. >> >> >> ------ >> Sara Mattes >> >> >> -- > The LincolnTalk mailing list. > To post, send mail to [email protected]. > Browse the archives at https://pairlist9.pair.net/mailman/private/lincoln/ > . > Change your subscription settings at > https://pairlist9.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/lincoln. > >
