Ritter Building 
Call to Order: At 7:35 with McGrath, Dwyer, Sculimbrene and Lockwood present. 
Public Comment: None 
Review of minutes: 
The minutes for the April 11th meeting were read and approved. 
Old Business: 
Bylaw Review: The commission voted unanimously to invite the new building commissioner to the next meeting to welcome him 
or her, and garner input on the bylaw review process. 
Report of the Municipal Design Committee: A “hybrid” solution to the town’s need for office buildings will be discussed at the May 
16th Select Board meeting.  The Design Committee is proposing renovation and construction of an annex to the Ritter building, 
with an estimated cost of $5-6million.  McGrath noted that there had been a plan for expanding the Ritter building  in the past, 
and recommended contacting Mass Historic for input on the plan.  As the Ritter Building is now over 75 years old, a motion was 
put forward to apply for its recognition by the National Register as part of the inventory of the Lunenburg Historic District.  All 
voted in favor. 
New Business: 
Chris Ruth is the town’s new facilities director.  It was proposed that he be invited to the next meeting for introduction. 
Banner Project: Ms Anderson of the historic commission has been unable to make progress on this project, and the presentation 
was tabled for a later meeting. 
Sculimbrene brought up the topic of historic rehabilitation tax credits as a resource to encourage the maintenance of historic 
buildings, and said that he would learn more about it. 
Next Meeting: 
June 6th 
Close of meeting: 8:28PM
