Of course, we do get daily notifications of Donald Trump's Cabinet selections and now hear confirmation from the CIA that Russia was in fact responsible for the hacking and release of John Podesta's re Hilary Clinton's campaign. But I thought we already knew that... Town Meeting was completed in one night. Most of the drama came from the discussion about adopting a new amendment to the Planning Board's by-laws dealing with limiting room rental in a private house to more than 90 days. This was proposed by residents of Whitney Tavern Road to deal with a weekend Airbnb situation in their neighborhood. (More details about the Town Meeting can be found on page 12 of this Bulletin.) We are pleased that our state legislators, Mike Barrett and Alice Peisch will be joining us on Saturday, February 4 for a Coffee Hour at 11:00 am in the library's Community Room. This has become an annual event, and provides an opportunity for townspeople to hear their legislators' priorities for the current session. There will also be time for us to share our concerns with Mike and Alice, and get answers to our questions. Please renew your League membership before the end of the year. We need your support to continue the work we do in the community, including candidates' events and voter registration drives at the High School and informational coffee hours. A membership form can be found at the back of this Bulletin. Our Civics Bee this year will take place on Sunday, April 2 in Sudbury. We will be putting together a team of adults, high school and middle school students to compete with their peers from Wayland and Sudbury. If you would like to participate, or know someone else you think would enjoy it, please let us know. 1

12 LWV of Weston TOWN MEETING Katty Chace W hen the article proposing a change to the Planning Board by-law was introduced at Town Meeting, two of the three Selectmen and the entire Planning Board expressed opposition to the article, largely because they felt there needed to be more time allowed to come up with a thoughtful proposal to deal with such situations. Some felt that such infractions as late-night noise, traffic, raucous parties and littering could be dealt with under existing laws. Others spoke against the article saying that they had used Airbnb when visiting offspring in other cities and felt it would be hypocritical to now vote against the organization, and that the bad behavior had been sharply curtailed since speaking to the homeowner whose property was the site of the neighbors' complaints. We also heard from a family that rents half of their house short-term to visiting professors and speakers from Brandeis University with no problems and would like to continue that practice. One of the neighbors who had originally spoken in favor of the article finally offered an amendment reducing the proposed rental time limit from 90 to 30 days, but that amendment failed, as did the article. The three articles dealing with improvements to the Town Center were handled in increasing levels of change and expense, so that after the first article (described as level-service) passed easily we proceeded to discussion of Article 2. Article 2 proposed some beautification items such as returning some paved areas to grass, while trying to improve traffic flow at certain key intersections. One feature of this proposal might be to change traffic on Townhouse Road from one-way to two-way. It was stated that Article 2 is now more of a concept of beautifying the center than firm proposals, and that there will be plenty of time to hash out details before the Annual Town Meeting. Article 2 passed. Article 3 proposed burying all the wires in the center underground, a very expensive prospect (around $5 million). I supported the article, but expected that with such expense, there would be little support in the vote. As it turned out, a majority supported the article ( ), but the article failed, since it needed a 2/3 vote. The four articles that involved financial support from the Community Preservation Act all passed easily, including additional design fees for the renovation of the Case House, an historic preservation restriction on the house at 55 Coburn Road, and extended walkways (sidewalks) on Ash Street and Merriam Street. The Meeting voted to transfer Burt Field (off Oak Street) from the town to the Conservation Commission, despite Isabella Jancourtz's objection that this might thwart the town's efforts to build affordable housing. The Meeting also approved spending $290,000 to make the very unattractive water pump station at the corner of Highland Street and Black Oak Road more visually appealing. Neighbors had collaborated on the plan, including a small easement on one neighbor's property. 12
