For the first time since 1989 a revision in the Lexington Environmental Commission’s by-laws is in the works. The community-based Commission’s chair Grace Leppert Downey made her case before Council members last week. Downey said one change being sought would have a Council rep serve on the Environmental Commission.
“The biggest way to make sure that we can inform and advise the Council is if we’re able to speak to them directly. And the best way to do that is to have one of the Council members as a member of our Commission,” said Leppert Downey.
