Dear neighbors, I just got back from Precinct 8. As of 9:30 a.m., a total of 88 votes were cast but note that 23 of those were absentee ballots. Who would...

Another thing to keep in mind when looking at Lexington's apparent rising home prices is that a property might be sold for, say, $500,000 one year, the house...
All, Via Lago will be hosting the Mondays in March series to benefit the Lexington Farmers Market. 20% of all dine-in dinners on Monday evenings will benefit...
Jessie, I don't think this is a 'no-brainer' issue. The turnout argument favors November, obviously, as does the fact that it's more efficient for the Town...

Not only do I support this, but I have suggested for years now that our Town election be held on the same Tuesday in November that state and national elections...

Seems like it would be good to elect people to the Boards after the budget has been voted on by Town Meeting, wouldn't it? It seems like it would be difficult...
Patrick, It seems like a strange argument to think there is something wrong with people looking at a list of supporters and coming to the conclusion that if so...
Leora: Of course, and this was the next (after increased turnout) reason why I suggested years ago Tuesday in November. But reason doesn't trump the value for...
Sorry if I wasn't clear. The big finding in my "85-10-5 rule" is that 85% of voters stay home for a Town election (held on a Monday in March) and that's a huge...
Hmm...Deb and George are very different from each other and from Jessie and Mary Ann. I happen to respect all four as strong, clear-thinking leaders. But to...
I do think the ultra-low turnouts we see in our local elections is cause for concern. It indicates we have a disengaged electorate. Why? Do they not care?...
There is the matter of Massachusetts General Laws, chapter 39, section 9A to deal with. http://www.mass.gov/legis/laws/mgl/39-9a.htm TOWN MEETINGS Chapter 39:...
Tanya: How about a hypothetical situation where 3 candidates (A, B and C) are running for 2 seats, and the "establishment" clearly likes A, clearly dislikes B...
JJ: Did you miss the "Except as otherwise provided by special law [...]" part of that statue? Our Selectmen have spent large amounts of time asking the...
Hello all, We are thinking of doing some small home improvement projects and I was hoping that you could provide me with some recommendations for (1) A finish...
I have been exceedingly pleased with my experience at One2One BodyScapes in Lexington Center. Bodyscapes is a personal training center, not a gym, and is...
I'll second the recommendation. I've worked out there a few times and know others who go regularly. The trainers are very professional and do a really good...
JJ: Will you answer my http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lexington/message/12312 question? If I misread MGL Ch 39, section 9A, I'd like to know. There was traffic...
In answer to your question, it averages out to about $72 per hour. The first package is priced lower due to a first time discount. Packages come in sets of...
In the interest of getting people to vote today I will let you all get your political ya-ya's out and continue to allow the politics discussion on the ...
Dear Vicki, I appreciate your forwarding this, though it is extremely sad. I forwarded to Paul Ash. Maybe Margaret or Tom knew him & maybe our current...
Jim, I could not agree with you more. When new board officials get elected in March, they are asked to support already formed budgets which have little space...
