Build Boston
| February 15, 2006
| I am trying to put together a panel on groundwater issues for the Boston Society of Architects Build Boston conference in November. I have tentative agreements to participate from Jim Hunt, the BRA, the Beal Company, and Jim Lambrechts. I would moderate. We will discuss what the issue is and its importance, the City’s response, the new zoning, and the way the Clarendon project is addressing the issue. Tim Mitchell was invited by the BSA to see if there was a good fit for this topic this year. I think this will be a good opportunity to speak to design professionals in the City about how they can help to solve this issue. |

| I filed our application to offer a panel featuring Jim Hunt, Rick Shaklik of the BRA, Jim Lambrechts, and Peter Nichols of the Beal Companies, which I would moderate. We will hear back from the Boston Society of Architects, sponsors of Build Boston, about our acceptance and final schedule in June. We’ll then work toward refining our presentation for the event, to be held at the World trade Center Boston November 13-15. |

| Our proposal for a panel on groundwater at the conference has been accepted. We’ll be on Thursday, Nov. 16, from 5:30-7:00PM. Our panel is scheduled to include Jim Hunt, Jim Lambrechts, Peter Nichols of the Beal Companies, and Rick Shaklik of the BRA. I’ll be the moderator. I’m hopeful that the time will allow many locals to attend after work. |

| Our team for the panel at Build Boston has met and is developing materials for our presentation. I think that this will be an excellent summary of the groundwater situation including the reason for the problem, the steps being taken to alleviate it, the GCOD zoning, and the effect of all this on a real project. |
