The Lincoln Green Energy Committee (GEC) has reviewed the proposed Nature Link project that will be subject to Special Town Meeting votes on June 25, 2025 from the perspective of the GEC’s charge from the Select Board, which is “to proffer advice and make recommendations to the Select Board, other town committees and boards, town staff, and town residents and businesses on issues and potential actions related to climate change.”
In short, the GEC concludes that the project would be net positive from a climate change perspective. We reach that conclusion based mainly on (1) the design of the housing to be built, and (2) the protection of a large natural area from development. You can read our full statement here.
Shorb (99 South Great Rd.) is the chair of the Green Energy Committee.
