Re: [LincolnTalk] Hogue for Select Board Legislative Priorities

Mr. Hogue, Thank you for laying out some general areas of objectives. But, as the saying goes, the devil is in the details, and here, the details are few. So, I am hoping you might address some of the following in tonight’s candidate forum. 1) Housing-in Lincoln, this is a motherhood-and-apple-

Paul respectfully when does it save the home owner money? How long till the return is made And sorry I am not inclined to write a “blank check” when I don’t know what your ideas are. Has your group discussed this and come up with an outline of what you want or did someone just think this was a g

Thanks for providing some clarification, Andy, as well as asking some very good questions. If I may abstract the issue up a level or two… I fully acknowledge the depth of my ignorance re the process on how a town might submit a petition to the state legislature. But, logically, it has to f

Hi, There are already many restrictions on our properties in Lincoln. I would personally like to maintain my property rights that I have left and not have others dictate what I can do and not do with my property or should I decide to sell it. That would limit the value of our properties, and for s

Why not also see if we can strict sizes of homes. Why does anyone need a 3 car garage, more than 2.5 baths or 4000+ sq ft homes. Why not see if we can require a special permit where they have to show cause for such excess? This would accomplish two fold, reduce carbon footprints and reduce housing

[LincolnTalk] Looking for a carpenter with 3-story ladder

We have a very tall, very old house. The wooden eaves at the very tip top have a board hanging loose. Just one board on the underside, I don't think it's a big job, but it's so high I don't think that the average handy-person could get up there. Also a good chance that some animal might be nesting
