The names of the 60+ supporters are available on the website, and have been for weeks. www.lincolnHCA.org
Supporters reside in all areas of Lincoln. You can easily look up addresses using the names. The lots included in Option E are also included in options C or D. We have not included any parcels that were not considered by the HCAWG. We removed North Lewis St at the request of the Lincoln Historical Society. We removed 7 Ridge Rd because they are affordable rentals and would be at risk of displacement. Note that the HCAWG options (C and Ds) DO include this parcel despite this risk. We also removed 148 Lincoln Rd since it is unnecessary to reach the compliance target. Note that this is not dissimilar to the last iteration of the Lincoln Rd district when the WG dropped 150 Lincoln Rd. > ---------- Forwarded message --------- > From: ٍSarah Postlethwait <[email protected]> > Date: Wed, Nov 22, 2023 at 9:06 PM > Subject: Re: [LincolnTalk] Mass.
