Minutes from February 16th meeting were reviewed and approved.

Old Business

1.  No Old Business

New Business

1.  A concern was raised by a member of the Maintenance crew that the ADA Parking in the Shepard lot was not in compliance. The curb has been removed to allow access from the ADA parking spot.

2.  Crosswalk on Winter Street at Ferry Street: At this time there is not enough room to have a crosswalk at this location. Where Winter St. and Ferry St. connect there is a T in the road due to a service driveway. There are already 4 established crosswalks on Winter St. between Trade St. and State St. Rich Dennis will discuss if there are any option w/Jim Bauer.

3.  Rich Dennis looking to request to move Handicap Parking spot by UC on Mill St. It is hard for driver(s) to see when pedestrians are using the crosswalk.
