Editor’s note: This is a copy of a letter sent by Ms. Harvey to the Planning Board.
To the editor:
I am a member of First Parish. When the renovation of the Stearns room was planned, I was in favor of it and contributed what was, for my circumstances, a generous amount. As things progressed and the plans became more and more grand, my approval became less and less enthusiastic. As things stand now, I’d be just as glad to have the mold problem remediated, the décor freshened up and the grandiose expansion ideas forgotten.
The cavalier attitude shown by the persons representing the First Parish in this situation toward the abutters is shameful. I am sorry that a community which I joined for its principles of unity and “service for all” has behaved in such un-neighborly manner.
To sum up: I hope that the Planning Board will use its power to put a halt to this sorry business.
Sincerely,
Adele Harvey
140 Lincoln Road, Unit 215
