Who is responsible for policing and holding accountable to ensure that the build site is made structurally and aesthetically according to plan? At build and post build for many years? Bait and switch is what I've seen happen in many high growth towns in MA.

Hopkinton MA allowed solar on green space and, as a neighbor, not an abutter, it had a much greater impact than originally projected by the builder! Wetland run off, property flooding, wildlife displacement, weather negative impacts to swaths of open low lying terrain, lower property values to abutters, and more! The lack of commitment to keep up the property and deal with these issues post build is criminal. Hopkinton has since passed legislation to not allow building on green space.

The residents of Lexington and Waltham SHOULD be alarmed. They definately should do due diligence!
