THE PLANNING CO~WISSION SITTING AS THE ARCHITECTURAL COMMITTEE
AC-4l6, request of AVCO Community Developers, Inc. for Architectural
Review and Control of the amended building elevations and floor
plans of 50 proposed townhouses in Planned Unit Development "K,"
located on Westchester Court, at Radburn Drive, and on Geddes

Mr. Frechette explained the project with rendered drawings and some
of the samples for exterior materials to be used.
Considerable discussion ensued regarding whether
scaping should be complet~d by the developer. Mr. Frechette
mentioned that this would increase the total cost of the house and
there are some restrictions imposed by FHA on the developer with
regard to landscaping the individual lots. Moreover, he continued,
homeowners may like to do individual landscaping of their choice.
Mr. Richman suggested that before making any decision the Planning
Commission members should visit the Westborough-West Park Unit No.3
development in order to observe the appearance of front-yard
landscaping developed by the homeowners.
With the concurrence of the Planning Commission, Chairman Raffaelli
announced that the matter would be held over to the regular Planning
Commission meeting of September 25, 1972., Meanwhile the Planning
Commission members could visit the site as suggested.
Vice-Chairman Gamma expressed his concern regarding the size of the
common green area in certain locations of Unit No. 3. Mr. Richman
replied that the landscaping plans of common green areas were worked
out by the landscape architect in consultation with the City's
Landscape Specialist, Police and Fire department.
