19 Court Street-Appeal Health Agents Decision
Neal Kimball (designer) and Michael Perry (owner) presented the case. The Board suggested viable alternatives to applicant’s request since it was deemed the property does not have adequate flow to accommodate the proposed accessory-use space. It was ultimately suggested that the Health Agent do a walk through to determine if the basement, which is currently considered a bedroom, actually meets the requirements for a bedroom. If not, then the flow from that space could be used for the proposed space without the owner having to seek additional flow.. Applicants requested to be continued to March 3, 2005 meeting.
6 Bangs Street and 12
Commodore Avenue-Request for extension to
Provincetown Real Estate Regulation
Request
was denied. Board explained to applicant that regulation deadline did not apply
to the properties because they were not and are not on the market.

The
Board requested of Ruth Gilbert, FinCom Chair, that the issue of reduction to
the Health Agent’s full-time position as proposed in the Wastewater Enterprise
Fund be placed first on FinCom’s agenda at their February 13, 2005 meeting so
that BoH members could attend.

the MA Climate Coalition’s wishes. The Board agreed by consensus to allow the Chair

Inspector, Pat Pajaron: She resumed the ticketing process against George
Bryant. She will be attending Cape Cod Rabies Oral Vaccination Program meeting
