Docket #1539 – Message and order for the confirmation of the appointment of Jeffrey Gonyeau as an alternate member of the Boston Landmarks Commission for a term expiring on June 30, 2021
A
My
name
is
Michelle
Wu
and
I'm,
chair
of
the
Committee
on
planning,
development
and
transportation.
Today,
we're
here
for
a
public
hearing
on
two
dockets,
so
we'll
we'll
take
them
each
separately
and
a
slightly
actually
pretty
varied
topics.
One
the
first
one
will
be
docket
one
five,
three
nine
message
in
order
for
the
confirmation
of
the
appointment
of
jeffrey
gallo
as
an
alternate
as
an
alternate
member
of
the
boston,
Landmarks
Commission
for
a
term
expiring,
June,
30th,
2021
and
the
second
will
be
docket
number
one.
A
So
again,
we
will
start
with
the
landmarks
appointment
confirmation.
First,
the
City
Council's
role
here
is
to
in
some
ways
interview
and
get
to
know
the
appointees
and
confirm
the
mayor's
appointments
to
the
Landmarks
Commission.
We
have
here
the
appointee
himself
as
well
as
Rosanna
Foley
from
the
Landmarks
Commission.
B
My
name
is
Jeffrey
gallo
I've
been
a
Dorchester
resident
since
1997,
so
21
years
now
and
I
actually
have
worked
in
preservation
here
in
Boston
and
since
in
a
professional
capacity.
Since
about
2001
when
I
began
working
at
historic,
Boston
incorporated
and
I
worked
there
at
that
nonprofit
developer
of
historic
buildings,
many
of
which
were
formerly
city-owned
properties.
B
The
Landmarks
Commission
really
comes
out
of
the
fact
that
my
introduction
to
preservation
was
community
based
so
and
it's
actually
when
I
got
to
know.
Roseanne
was
to
help
get
a
Boston
landmark
restored
in
Dorchester
the
Peabody
square
clock,
which
was
a
great
a
great
project,
and
that
you
think
there's
something
like
that.
An
over
100
year
old
street
clock
would
seem
like
an
obsolete
piece
of
City
furniture,
but
in
fact
people
were
really
upset
that
it
wasn't
working.
B
So
we
got
it
working
again
and
I'm
amazed
that
even
when
people
have
watches
and
a
cell
phone
telling
them
what
time
it
is,
they
get
really
upset
at
the
clock
either
stops
or
as
slow
or
fast.
So
so
that
kind
of
that's
what
really
got
me
hooked
into
historic
preservation,
particular
at
a
community-based
level
and
the
rest
is
history.
B
C
C
What
the
the
Boston
Landmarks
Commission
does,
and
we
do
have
nine
other
Commission's
that
oversee
historic
districts
in
Boston.
The
Landmarks
Commission
has
purview
over
the
individual
landmarks
in
Boston,
which
include
everything
from
the
Blake
house
in
Dorchester
to
the
Charles
River
Esplanade
Franklin
Park.
We
have
a
wide
range
of
of
landmarks
that
are
in
need
of
design
review,
so
Jeff
brings
to
the
to
the
table
a
great
understanding
of
how
the
land
marking
process
helps
to
improve
the
city
and
is
in
addition
to
the
to
the
economic
life
of
the
city
as
well.
A
C
If
anyone
wants
to
read
the
state
law
that
guides
our
work,
the
the
member
and
alternate
roles
are
discussed
in
there
pretty
extensively,
but
basically
it's
a
way
for
if
Lin
does
need
to
take
a
break
once
in
a
while.
For
some
reason,
Jeff
can
step
in
to
help
with
the
vote
and
ensure
that
there
is
a
quorum.
A
B
Attended
not
in
the
capacity
as
a
potential
alternate,
but
in
my
past
work
I
have
I've,
attended
many
hearings
and
have
been
part
of
the
process
of
nominating
new
properties
to
become
Boston
landmarks,
some
successfully,
which
is
great
and
some
not
successfully
or
some
pending.
But
yes,
I
have
that
process
is.
B
Yet
there's
this
backlog
of
many,
probably
as
much
or
as
many
as
large
as
that
list
that,
because
of
the
lack
of
resources
to
have
those
study,
reports
completed
and
the
lack
of
staffing
capacity
to
be
able
to
push
those
over
the
line,
they're
sort
of
foundering
a
bit,
and
so
that
would
be
something
that
I
would
recommend
would
be
to
have.
The
city
give
the
Landmarks
Commission
the
resources
to
help
with
that
backlog,
because
those
are
they've
been
deemed
to
be.
B
A
B
Think
that
there's
a
lot
of
the
my
marks
Commission
has
shown
a
lot
of
flexibility
and
what
they
will
consider
to
be
a
landmark
and
I
know.
We
have
the
recent
case
of
the
Citgo
sign,
which
was
a
complicated
case,
but
the
fact
that
a
sign
might
join
that
list
is
as
interesting
as
the
fact
that
the
Blake
house,
which
was
built
in
1668
and
Dorchester
Boston's
oldest
surviving
house,
is
also
on
that
list.
A
Speaking
of
the
sicko
sign,
what
is
the?
What
is
the
latest
in
terms
of
the
possibility
for
future
land
marking
and
I
know
that
there
was
a
veto
of
the
landmark
Commission's
decision,
but
it
does
that
preclude
future
consideration
of
status,
or
would
it
just
need
to
be
started
from
the
beginning
in
terms
of
the
the
process.
A
The
current
agreement
is
for
was
it
for
30
years
or
so,
or
correct.
Okay,
okay,
in
terms
of
the
council's
role
in
all
of
this
I
mean
we.
I
am
I
five
years
on
the
council,
I
I
don't
I
think
there
might
have
been
just
one
or
two
votes
that
we've
actually
that
have
actually
come
to
us
in
terms
of
approving
a
landmark
I,
don't
know
if
it's
even
been
so
is
there
any?
A
C
Staff
would
be
delighted
to
come
and
present
about
our
work
just
to
familiarize
everyone
with
that
and
and
also
focus
in
on
some
of
the
issues
such
as
the
pending.
Our
marks
list,
where
we're
at
we
actually
are
hearing
tomorrow
night,
where
we'll
be
discussing
our
work
plan,
which
is
the
place
where
the
Commission
prioritizes,
which,
pending
their
marks,
get
the
next
study
reports
and
how
to
handle
that.
B
I
think
from
a
counselors
kind
of
day-to-day
work,
most
of
the
petitions
aren't
generated.
It's
only
ten
people
need
to
sign
a
petition
and
submit
them
and
if
counselors
were,
could
pay
attention
to
what's
going
on
in
their
districts
to
understand
what
historic
resources
might
be
located
there
there
that
are
endangered
in
some
way
or
could
benefit
from
the
protection
of
landmark
status.
Then
they
should
just
keep
their
ears
open
because
it
often
comes
from
the
citizens
and
constituents
great.
A
Thank
you
I
want
to
recognize
that
my
colleague,
Olivia
Edwards
has
joined
us
and
speaking
of
the
next
year
and
and
being
more
assertive
I
know,
councillor
Edwards
had
filed
hearing
what
are
specifically
about
historic
preservation
that
is
still
in
the
docket.
So
it
comes
to
Edwards.
You
have
any
question
for
Jeffery
Gonyo.
D
What
would
be
really
great
is
when
we're
talking
about
community
driven
initiatives
that
either
there's
a
workbook
or
work
understanding,
so
that
people
are
just
randomly,
as
developers
have
said,
to
me,
trying
to
preserve
something
last
minute
to
stop
development
versus
truly
preserving
the
character
of
the
neighborhood,
which
I
fully
support.
Making
sure
historic
preservation
is,
is
at
the
forefront
of
all
community
members.
So
we
don't
want
it
to
be
seen
as
a
as
a
sword
against
anything
just
more
of
a
shield
to
protect
the
character
of
our
neighborhoods.
A
E
I'm
Greg
Kaler,
the
executive
director
of
the
Boston
Preservation
Alliance,
we're
obviously
in
dialogue
and
testifying
in
front
of
landmark
Commission
on
a
very
regular
basis,
intimately
involved
with
many
of
the
issues
that
came
up
earlier
and
we
support
many
of
the
comments
made.
I
just
want
to
say
briefly:
jeff
has
been
a
colleague
in
a
great
community
member
and
alignment
and
informant
in
terms
of
what's
going
on
in
the
Dorchester
another
neighborhood
since
I
arrived
at
the
Alliance
about
six
years
ago.
E
I
think
he
brings
a
really
wonderful
perspective
from
the
local
Dorchester
neighborhood
activism
through
statewide
work
and
he's
been
both
a
practitioner
in
terms
of
involving
specific
projects.
He
mentions
his
work
with
All
Saints
Church
and
really
knowing
the
nitty-gritty
of
how
a
preservation
project
works
all
the
way
through
policy
issues
as
he
works
with
preservation,
mats
and
I
think
that's
a
really
helpful
perspective
to
add
to
the
Landmarks
Commission,
so
the
Preservation
Alliance
is
very
supportive
of
his
nomination
and
look
forward
to
working
with
him.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
You
Greg
that's
all
in
terms
of
public
testimony
that
we
had
signed
up
unless
anyone
else
feels
moved
to
join
then
with
that.
We'll
conclude
the
first
half
of
the
hearing
and
thank
you
so
much
Jeffrey
and
thank
you
so
much
Roseann.
Thank
you
feel
free
to
stay
if
you
would
like
or
I,
know,
you're
very,
very
busy,
so
we'll
then
shift
to
the
second
docket.
A
So
let
me
just
read
that
docket
into
the
record,
once
more
docket
1,
5,
3,
8
message
and
order
authorizing
the
city
of
Boston
to
accept
and
expend
the
amount
of
$200,000
in
the
form
of
a
community
mitigation
fund
transportation
planning
grant
from
the
Massachusetts
Gaming
Commission
to
be
administered
by
the
Boston
Transportation
Department.
The
grant
will
fund
engineering
and
design
services
for
the
reconstruction
of
Sullivan
square
root.
Third
Avenue
in
Charlestown,
and
we
have
with
us
Jim
Gillooly
as
Jim.
F
Thank
You
counsel
I'm
happy
to
report
that
this
would
be
the
second
time
we
receive
money
from
the
Gaming
Commission.
The
Gaming
Commission
has
a
very
keen
interest
in
seeing
a
project
that
we're
working
on
the
Rutherford,
Sullivan
square
project
advance
and
so
they've
been
very
open
to
our
two
applications.
One
last
year
for
250,000
and
the
new
one
this
year
for
200,000
to
help
support
the
costs
that
the
city
would
be
incurring
to
do.
The
design
of
the
Rutherford
Sullivan
square
project.
F
F
F
It's
an
interesting
sub
note
to
this,
but
it's
a
very
important
piece
of
the
project
that
a
piece
of
Main
Street,
where
you
pass
the
fire
station
and
you're
next
to
the
rail
that
comes
out
of
the
massport
property
will
be
raising
that
three
feet
at
its
lowest
point,
and
that's
gonna
buy
us
about
thirty
years
of
protection
for
flooding.
That
otherwise,
would
come
off
of
those
properties.
F
F
The
the
other
good
note
to
bring
to
your
attention
is
that,
in
addition
to
having
other
sources
of
funds,
federal
and
state
dollars
for
construction,
we've
also
managed
to
get
the
earmarks
that
are
left
over
from
a
bygone
era
which
no
longer
in
Washington
DC
transportation.
Air
marks.
But
there
are
some
that
were
left
over
and
we're
able
to
use
the
federal
earmarks
that
remain
for
this
project
for
80%
of
the
cost
of
design.
F
So
the
good
news
here
in
summary,
is
that,
with
these
grants,
we're
not
only
covering
the
first
80%
of
our
design
costs,
but
we're
also
taking
a
big
bite
out
of
the
remaining
20%.
That
is
upon
the
city,
to
pay
typically
on
a
project
that
goes
through
the
state
system,
where
we're
using
the
federal
dollars.
There's
an
obligation
for
the
municipalities
to
pay
100%
of
the
design
costs,
so
we've
managed
to
save
the
city.
F
D
Thank
you,
Jim
for
all
your
work,
making
yourself
readily
available,
answering
questions,
and
things
like
that.
So
just
walk
me
through
the
two
different
tracks.
I
know
that
we
get
federal
funds
where
we,
when
they're
given
here
for
Sullivan
square,
is
that
specifically
Rutherford
Ave
and
then
we're
all
getting
funds
from
the
the
casino
as
well
go
ahead.
Oh
sure,.
D
F
D
D
F
When
we
accomplish
that,
it
freed
us
up
to
use
some
of
the
remaining
federal
earmark
money
to
cover
80%
of
the
design,
so
the
federal
government
still
would
require
20%
match.
Okay,
and
that
match
is
on
the
city,
as
opposed
to
one
hundred
percent
of
the
design.
Costs
were
downed
out
to
just
20%
of
the
design
cost
and,
as
we
secured
two
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
from
the
Gaming
Commission
last
year,
that
was
able
to
offset
the
city's
otherwise
portion
of
the
design
cost
that
20%
so.
D
That
so
that
20%,
when
you
said
it's
10
to
15%,
now
it's
because
of
the
offsets
from
correct
from
the
casino,
okay
correct.
So
right
now
you
know
traffic
is
a
major
issue
on
the
Sullivan
square.
The
corridor
and
I
get
a
lot
of
calls
about
that,
and
one
of
the
things
I'm
we're
wondering
since
this
grant
is
going
to
be
TD,
is,
is
it?
Is
there
any
way
to
leverage
some
of
this
funds
to
help
with
the
crosswalks
has
been
one
of
the
biggest
issues
that
they're?
Not
people
aren't
seeing
them.
D
They
would
like
them
to
have
them
redone
or
painted
over
I.
Don't
know
if
police
detail
is
there
any
way
that
this
because
mitigation
is
about?
You
know
the
growing
pains
of
the
moment
as
well
as,
ultimately
the
reward
for
you
know,
working
with
whatever
the
the
casino
and
working
with
the
federal
government
more
the
casino.
How
are
we
leveraging
or
are
we
leveraging
to
get
more
resources
right
now
for
the
folks
who
are
stuck
in
traffic
every
single
day.
F
First,
I
have
to
give
you
the
disappointing
news
that,
as
this
is
a
planning
grant,
it
can't
be
used
for
those
types
of
things.
So
this
particular
money
can't
go
to
police
details
across
point,
it's
specifically
for
planning
which
will
cover
a
design
of
a
project
of
this
nature,
but
what's
happening
right
now,
it's
important
to
remember.
F
The
wind
mitigation
has
taken
place
right
now
and
some
of
the
things
that
that's
doing,
including
we
asked
them
several
months
back
to
refresh
the
crosswalks,
and
they
did
that
as
they
had
the
construction
work
taking
place
around
Sullivan
square.
A
major
advance
in
traffic
management
is
going
to
take
place
through
the
work
that
they're
doing
because
today,
with
the
ramp
to
route,
one
exists
off
of
Rutherford
a
lot
further
south
from
Sullivan
square.
Great.
D
F
A
F
Prevailed
upon
win
and
they
graciously
accept
that
our
asked
to
put
conduit
and
connect
fiber
cables
and
and
copper
cables
from
that
point
at
the
ramp
to
route
1
and
to
continue
it
up
through
Sullivan
square
and
and
then
over
to
Cambridge
Street
with
the
on-ramp
off
ramp
is,
and
also
to
the
other
side.
They're
going
to
continue
that
cable.
F
D
F
Some
of
them
are
in
Everett,
a
couple
of
them
are
in
Boston
and
that's
a
deliberate
effort
by
BTD
to
ignore
property.
You
know
municipal
lines
because
we
do
it
with
Brookline.
We
do
it
to
make
sure
you
know
to
make
sure
that
we
connect
a
logical
coroner
together.
We
talked
to
Everett,
asked
them
if
they'd
be
open
to
that,
and
they
said
that
would
be
great,
so
part
of
it
is
to
do
the
maintenance
of
traffic.
F
F
F
F
F
D
B
F
F
D
F
We've
got
a
bunch
of
cameras
that
will
help
us
keep
tabs
on.
What's
going
on,
there's
an
obligation
in
that
contract
that
the
communications,
what's
going
to
be
critical,
that
go
over,
that
bridge,
are
maintained
all
through
the
the
construction
so
that
we
don't
lose
the
ability
to
use
the
tools
we're
building
now
up
in
Sullivan
Square
area
and
other
parts
of
Charlestown,
where
we
have
connections
already
yeah,
plus
the
new
ones.
We're
going
to
have
there's
an
obligation
for
a
constant.
F
To
think
about
that
use,
they're
not
going
to
be
required
to
use
it,
but
we're
going
to
keep
a
close
eye
on
the
corridors
like
that
that
people
might
choose
as
an
alternative
going
up
to
the
Alfred
Street
Bridge.
That
work
will
be
done
at
the
end
of
May
so
that
that
will
be
behind
us
and
and
that's
that's
a
good
thing.
That'll
be
back
to
its
full
capacity.
F
D
Because
it's
just
you
know
what
I
think
a
lot
of
people
are
concerned
about
is,
as
we
improve
in
one.
Are
we
really
just
pushing
the
headaches
onto
further
down
the
line
right
and
so
to
have
a
constant
understanding
of
how
the
improvements
are
also
going
down.
The
line
too
and
being
coordinated,
is
vital
for
our
quality
of
life.
At
this
point,
right.
F
And-
and
that's
one
of
the
reasons
why
we
have
I-
think
some
of
the
people
at
NASA
think
of
my
middle
name-
is
video
camera
traffic
camera,
because
every
time
we
have
a
conversation
about
any
of
these
projects,
one
of
the
first
things
I
want
to
do
is
make
sure
that
we've
got
visibility.
We
can
see
what's
going
on
in
the
areas
that
are
going
to
be
impacted
and
they've
been
very
good.
Mascots
been
very
good
in
helping
us
build.
Our
we've
got
probably
a
550
cameras.
F
We
can
look
at
now,
so
it
really
helps
to
be
able
to
and
to
you
know,
see,
problems
that
might
be
brewing.
We've
had
to
call
over
a
couple
of
the
projects
we
mentioned
and
make
sure
that
they
know
hey
wait
a
minute.
You
know
you
gave
us
a
plan
to
set
up
the
traffic
in
a
certain
way.
You
didn't
do
it.
F
We
see
it
right
here
from
you
know
from
City
Hall,
so
we
also
have
that
type
of
a
role
of
keeping
a
close
eye
and
making
sure
that
remember
what
the
plan
for
the
traffic
management
is
set
up
in
a
way
that
we
feel
is
the
best
that
can
be
done
under
the
circumstances
of
all
that
construction
taking
place.
But
secondly,
you
know
we're
always
looking
for
better.
D
And
just
two
last
points:
one
could
you
address
when
you
brought
a
public
safety
emergency
vehicles
and
getting
stuck
in
traffic
and
how?
How
were
that's
the
biggest
concern
I
think
most
people
have?
Is
you
know
if
they
go
to
get
somebody
and
they
need
to
get
them
to
MGH?
They
need
to
get
them
out
of
Charlestown.
That's
what
I
represent
sure
other
areas
would
be
always
concerned.
D
But
you
know
MGH
is
a
Regional
Hospital,
but
for
me
I'm,
looking
at
Charlestown
and
getting
them
out
of
there,
whether
they're
coming
down
Chelsea
Street,
if
they're
coming
from
the
Bunker
Hill
Street
and
that
they're
hitting
this
vein
of
traffic
I'm,
not
the
for
tab.
That's
a
huge
huge
issue
and
you
know
I've
gotten
an
email
about
someone
who
was
stuck
in
traffic
in
the
in
the
ambulance.
So
that's
one
thing:
I'd
love
for
you
to
address
and
how
BTT
BTD
is
working
on
that
and
the
other
one.
D
Is
you
brought
up
resiliency
and
I
do
appreciate
that
analysis,
but
I
can
already
hear
and
see
the
emails
coming
in
about
resiliency
and
the
underpass.
You
know
and
looking
at
preparing
for
a
future
and
here
in
Boston,
so
they're
kind
of
big
I
understand,
but
you
I
just
you
brought
up
safety
and
resiliency.
So
I
wanted
you
to
touch
on
those
absolutely
so.
F
First,
off
that
we
always
get
the
public
safety
agencies
involved
in
the
planning
to
make
sure
that
if
they're,
you
know
spotting
something
that
we're
not
spotting,
so
the
plans
had
developed
for
the
traffic
management
with
their
solid
input.
We've
had
probably
a
half
a
dozen
meetings
in
the
last
six
months
where
public
safety
agencies
EMS
fire
police
have
been
at
the
table.
As
we
got
closer
to
unleashing
the
work
on
the
North
Washington
Street
bridge,
and
and
they
have
they
have
act.
F
You
know
we
keep
an
eye
on
the
traffic
with
an
eye
towards
you
know.
We
don't
want
that
happening.
We
don't
want
folks
getting
stuck,
but
the
other
player
that's
got.
The
key
role
is
the
police
for
the
detail
management
and
to
make
sure
that
they
can
keep
intersections
in
a
busy
area
from
getting
gridlocked
and
and
I.
Think
if
we
keep
the
gridlock,
the
the
emergency
vehicles
can
get
around
the
other
traffic
on
the
on
the
runs
and
as
long
as
they
can
get
through
the
intersections.
F
F
That
was
a
group
of
participants
on
that
because
of
the
MBTA
station
involved,
and
so
we
would
have
regular
conference
calls
in
fact,
I
think
I'm,
due
for
one
in
the
middle
of
this
week
too,
as
things
are
wrapping
up
over
there.
So
we
do.
We
use
that
strategy
to
to
just
stay
in
touch,
to
make
sure
that
nothing's
being
lost,
because
we're
making
assumptions
that
it
seems
like
all
is
quiet,
but
maybe
it
isn't.
F
You
know
it's
good
when
they're
all
calling-
and
you
know-
we've
got
more
work
to
do
as
far
as
the
resiliency
and
the
issue
of
the
underpass
furnaces
I
think
that
keeping
flooding
out
of
the
area
from
the
Mystic
River
is
the
key
for
resiliency
and
we're
making
that
measure
by
doing
the
raising
of
Main
Street
D.
The
other
thing
that,
as
we
watch
our
threats
from
climate
changes,
that
you've
got
the
heavy
storms.
F
But
you
know
something
that
as
old
as
that
one
has
problems,
maybe
with
broken
pipes
and
the
drainage
isn't
working
quite
right,
but
this
would
be
all
Brin
who
drainage
in
that,
so
that
the
extent
of
a
heavy
rainstorm
that
produces
a
lot
of
water,
it
will
be
handled
by
the
equipment
that'll
be
in
this
I
would
I
would
say
you
know
as
a
for
instance,
we
wouldn't
want
to
bring
the
I
93
back
up
to
the
surface,
because
we're
afraid
I
might
flood
someday.
We
want
to
make
sure
it
doesn't
fly.
F
D
I
think
also
part
of
that
conversation
or
agency.
Well,
I'd
love
to
see
it
be
part
of
this
is
the
Boston
water
sewage
Commission,
because
you
may
be
aware,
we
had
flooding
in
Charlestown
on
down
lower
Baldwin
and
it
backed
up
the
sewage
raw
sewage
into
people's
homes,
and
so
that
was
a
coordination
or
a
combination
of
the
massive
immuno
that
what
it
was
a
bomb
cyclone.
D
We
called
it
that
issue
I'm
also
concerned
with
you
know:
if
we
have
a
lot
of
snow
and
then
it
suddenly
melts
but-
and
that's
that's
pretty
far,
I
would
far
from
the
Mystic.
This
is
a
different
kind
of
flooding.
True,
we,
this
area
is
filled
right.
There
was
there's
a
river
under
it,
so
I
guess
the
Mystic
is
flowing
somewhat
deeper
under
so
as
we're
building
these
tunnels
or
I.
Don't
know
if
we're
going
deeper,
what
we're
doing,
but
there's
a
body
of
water
moving
there,
and
so
the
coordination
with
Boston
water
and
sewage.
F
Yeah
I
should
not
have
left
them
out
of
the
list.
The
water
and
sewer
is
a
fundamental
party.
We
just
met
with
them
in
eversource,
for
instance,
just
the
other
day,
because,
as
we
do
things
in,
for
instance,
we
take
the
city's
current
parking
lots
over
there.
There's
gonna
be
the
new
street
grid
is
going
to
go
across
a
portion
of
our
parking
lots.
F
F
Need
water
and
sewer
to
be
able
to
do
all
of
their
drainage
and
a
lot
of
new
drainage
is
going
to
be
created
under
all
of
the
streets
from
rather
fit
up
through
Sullivan's
square.
All
of
their
systems
are
looked
at
and
and
made
to
fit
with
the
new
street
system
and
modernized
to
the
extent
that
that's
needed
to
okay.
F
F
D
A
F
A
F
So
but
it'll
be
used
in
the
course
of
the
next
year
and
it'll
help
us
get
completed
at
25.
If
there
are
any
adjustments,
we
have
to
make
based
on
feedback
from
MassDOT
our
advances
towards
75
and
I'm,
assuming
that
there
will
be
we'll
be
back
here
next
year,
talking
again
of
another
grant
of
this
nature,
because
it's
it's
really,
you
know
the
Gaming
Commission
sees
it
as
truly
what
they're
trying
to
accomplish,
which
is
to
try
to
help
people
plan
and
design
things
that
are
going
to
help
the
area
mm-hmm.
F
This
particular
fund
I
would
say
that,
since
we're
capped
the
first
year
we
got
250
because
there
was
a
set
aside
for
the
surrounding
communities
and
and
then
there
was
another
that
was
I,
believe
the
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
and
another
hundred
thousand
that
we
competed
for.
So,
even
though
it
looks
like
we're
going
backwards
from
250
to
200
we're
actually
going
upwards
from
100
to
200
this
year,
because
the
set-aside
was
from
earlier
on
where
the
Gaming
Commission
said
these
communities
when
things
settled,
we're
gonna
hold
this
money
for
them.
F
F
A
A
And
then
just
to
touch
on
the
resiliency
piece,
a
little
bit
more,
so
what
level
of
sort
of
resiliency
are
we
planning?
What
are
their
some
of
the
metrics
that
you
planning,
for
you
mentioned
the
the
timeframe
of
30
years,
how
many
inches
of
water
off
the
river
or
what
level
of
sort
of
one
and
you
know,
100
years
sort?
What
are
we
planting?
What
does
that
get
us?
That's.
F
F
A
A
And
then
just
in
terms
of
any
what
are
we
thinking
in
terms
of
water
transportation,
ferry
service?
It's
just
any
time,
I'm
in
Charlestown.
All
anyone
wants
to
talk
about
is
traffic
transportation
and
the
fear
the
real
anxiety
that
it's
just
going
to
get
worse
with
all
the
the
construction
nearby
and
the
casino
right
I'm.
F
Gonna
have
to
consult
the
folks
who
are
working
more
directly
on
that.
I
know
that
there
are
efforts
being
made.
I
know
that
you
know
the
the
casino,
not
the
casino,
I'm.
Sorry,
the
Convention
Center
is
heading
up
an
effort
to
get
a
new
water
shuttle
going,
but
I
just
don't
have
the
details
at
my
fingertips.
Okay,.
F
Think
it's
actually
an
amazingly
good
position,
we've
gotten
ourselves
to
because
there
are
very
few
projects
of
this
scale
that
adds
somebody
rebuilding
a
portion
of
this
to
interstate
highway
system
or
something
so.
This
is.
This
is
a
really
large
project
that,
along
with
the
melny,
a
caste
project,
which
is
sizable
as
well
great,
you
know
the
tables
are
now
set
to
do
two
wonderful
projects
in
the
city
and
I
think
we
just
have
to
keep
our
focus
on
it
and
and
get
those
going
and
start
to
think
about.
A
F
How
it
will,
ultimately,
you
know,
go
out
to
development,
it
hey,
there's
a
whole
process
now
of
trying
to
redraw
the
lines
in
transfer
apostles',
so
I'm
I'm,
not
sure
how
it'll
settle,
but
I'm
sure,
Boston,
planning
and
development
will
have
a
huge
role
in
terms
of
formulating
the
development
ideas
for
the
area
are
working
with
the
community.
They've
already
started.
Thinking
of
it,
as
we've
been
doing
the
design
of
the
roadways
and
why?
God
we're
not
doing
that.
F
Just
you
know
thinking
traffic
only
or
pedestrian
crossings,
only
our
bicycle
tracks
only
we
had
the
Planning
and
Development
Agency,
and
we
also
had
some
outside
consulting
help
that
they
were
brought
in
as
part
of
the
team
for
designing
this,
to
say
is
that
a
realistic
size
and
shape
to
that
pasal?
Could
it
really
be
developed
into
something
meaningful,
and
so
we
did
look
at
work
earlier.
