return to the Historic Preservation Trust ($530.93). $250 was returned to the town.
Balance is $705.28.
No word about the cell phone company (Nextel) test at the library.
159 Wakefield St.: The commission needs to document the house before it goes down.
1375 Main St.: We are still expecting $20,000 once the house is demolished.
Spence Farm: Archstone (a developer of rental unit projects) wants to build a high-end
rental property on the farm. This will require the loss of two 19th century houses (not
on the inventory). Clay met with the developer. The developer wants to cooperate
with the town. Issues involved would be schools, water, and traffic. It will increase the
affordable housing in Reading by 50%.
Clay encouraged the commission to think of ways to help the developer make the
project attractive to the community.
Next meeting will be Feb. 12th.
