2) Lunenburg Municipal Building Design Committee 
a. Is gaining some momentum.  New members and committees are being represented.  
b. Making good progress, two main issues 
i. Consolidating location of town staff – Want to move all to Ridder Building.  Moves have 
not been decided but is still in the discussion phase. 5 of 7 members are not in favor of a 
new building.  Saving the Ritter and Town Hall have big implications that fall under the 
APDC purview.

the building footprint. An elevator would be needed to maintain ADA capabilities.
