Ned
Bradford – The Moors Condo Complex 5-15 Bradford Street Extension
Site
visit was conducted by Howard Burchman, Winthrop Smith and Doug Taylor prior to
meeting.
Discussion
of site plan: Mr. Bradford requested that site plan be accepted as complete.
Anne Howard made a motion to accept site plan as complete. Winthrop Smith
seconded and it passed 4:0:0. This vote will release money in escrow.
Discussion
of property ingress/egress ensued. Mr. Bradford submitted a preliminary
proposal for future re-design which would be an administrative amendment to
site plan. Anne Howard requested that if the proposal will in fact be
implemented that Planning Board be notified in writing and design be put into
file.
Continued
discussion with Martha Hevenor on Zoning Bylaws.
Outside
display was discussed and draft was presented for discussion purposes only. The
idea is to make it easier for businesses to have displays. After much
discussion it was decided that Martha will draft changes into article form and
send it to Doug Taylor. Planning Board will vote to put it into the warrant for
Special Town Meeting at next meeting on October 5, 2005 and then schedule a
public hearing.
Winthrop
Smith reported on Community Preservation Committee.
CPC
has received 10 proposals requesting funds. Concern is that since CPC really
functions as a bank and that they want to establish procedures that take into
consideration the history of properties in question. It was suggested that CPC
members go to their respective boards and discuss with members. It was also
noted that applications must go through regulatory permitting process review
which would flag potential problems.
Anne
Howard read into the record a letter she received from a resident. Doug Taylor
knew of situation and was already working on it.
Anne
Howard made a motion to approve minutes from August 3, 2005. Winthrop Smith
seconded and it passed 4:0:0.
Motion
to adjourn meeting. Meeting adjourned at 8:25 p.m.
Respectfully
submitted,
