The town’s consultant for the State Hospital Advisory Committee’s visioning session has put together the first draft of he calls a “shared concept plan” for the re-use and re-development plans for the Medfield State Hospital site developed by the participants at the recent visioning session. At that visioning session, the 100+ participants broke into groups of ten or fewer, and as small groups articulated our own visions for the reuse of the site. The consultant then took all the ten or more groups’ responses and synthesized those into his version of a consensus plan for the ultimate uses of the site, based on the input from the 100+ participants. That consultant’s plan is attached. 20140216-shared concept plan
The SHAC has yet to review this plan to make sure t conforms with their sense of what was decided.
The town residents will have the ultimate say on how the site is re-developed, and there needs to be much more work done to come to any final conclusions about what the developments should include. With that caveat in mind, it is interesting to see the general agreement upon many of the uses.
