<p><span style="color:black">Hello,</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="elementtoproof"><span style="color:black">West Newbury is scheduled to vote on their proposed MBTA Overlay District next Monday, April 28. I have been asked to compile a list of communities that have located their required MBTA district in an area
that is likely not going to produce little or no new housing in the near future before the night of our town meeting. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="color:black">Could you let me know of any other communities that have used this approach? The examples of MBTA overlay district locations I'm looking for could be broken into the following categories:</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Thickly settled area<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Commercial/Industrial Development<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Existing Multi-family housing<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Etc.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="color:black">We have located our overlay district on a 19 acre parcel with two buildings that is under agreement with a developer that would prefer to use the proposed MCMOD bylaw (if adopted). If there was sewer, there is a potential to build
more than required by the MBTA law.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="color:black">I understand that locating the required district in these types of areas is acceptable and I do not mean to imply that it is wrong to do. We want to be prepared with facts when answering questions from the public asking why we
didn’t consider locating the district in an area that would result in little or no new housing.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="color:black"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
