I wish to correct an inaccuracy in your otherwise very informative article ("Town to vote on running utility," Globe NorthWest, Oct. 4).
NStar "gave as an example [of NStar's partnership with communities] a parking lot recently donated in downtown Lexington." There was no such donation. Instead, NStar leased an unused portion of land it owns to the town following negotiations I was involved in. The town will pay NStar $9,600 per year, and the town has spent its own money to turn the area into a parking lot.
