# 2001-016 Hal Winard for John Cicero, 276 Commercial Street

The reason for the request was that Cabot’s Candy, the business occupying the first floor, needs to purchase new equipment for candy making and it won’t fit through the current opening. After a discussion led by Hal Winard the following motion was made:

Motion: John Dowd made a motion to approve the plan as presented which stipulated the following conditions: 1) new rail to have captured balusters and will be painted to match the trim, and 2) the doorway will have two doors each 2’ X 6’ (opening 4’ X 6’). Ardis Markarian seconded the motion and it was passed 4-0.

Discussion: DPW represented by Sandra Turner to discuss side stairs at Town Hall.

Sandy Turner presented the plan for the new side stairway to the Commissioners. She hoped to have one side completed before the Annual Town Meeting. Her plan was met with approval by all.

Case # 2001-018 Edward Hogan, 535 Commercial Street Install door for second floor egress.

A representative from South Hollow Builders presented the proposed plan for Unit 5. After a brief discussion the following motion was made:

Motion: Ardis Markarian made a motion to accept the door as proposed (a four panel wood door trimmed to match the windows). John Dowd seconded the motion and it passed unanimously, 4-0.

Case # 2001-019 John Peternell/Richard Golon, 26 Bradford Street Replace 17 windows.

Richard Golon presented the proposed plans. The only objection the Commissioners had was the replacement of the bow window. Thus the following motion was made:

Motion: Ardis Markarian made a motion to accept the proposal as amended by the following conditions:

1. wood windows 6/6 with factory installed exterior muntins

2. window casings to remain

3. bay window to be replaced by 3 adjoining windows divided by casings to match existing windows. (outside windows to align with windows above.)

Steve Milkewicz seconded the motion and it passed 4-0.

Case # 2001-017 Anthony Hale, 342 Commercial Street Replace windows on first, second and third floors.

This case was a “no-show.”

A motion to adjourn was made at 10:05 a.m. and unanimously approved.

Respectfully submitted,
