Case #2006-01 Site Plan Review (continued from January 4, 2006)

Application by Neal Kimball on behalf of Shawn Nightingale, under Article 2, Section 2320 of the Zoning Bylaw, High Elevation Protection District A. The applicant seeks Site Plan approval to add a half story to an existing two-story structure at the property located at 54 Mayflower Avenue (Res1 Zone).

 

Abutter notification cards and additional photos were submitted by Neal Kimball who also stated that he and applicant anticipated ZBA approval.

Anne Howard stated that she was concerned about interruption to scenic vista. She doesn’t think surrounding vegetation will cover the addition and is worried about setting a precedent. Ellen Battaglini and Kevin Rich voiced similar concerns. Howard Burchman thinks it is an architecturally interesting structure and that the scenic vista in question is not all that pristine to begin with. Doug Taylor stated that he did not think addition would be detrimental to town.

Anne Howard was still not sold on the addition stating that the perceived need by applicant for the addition didn’t impress her.

Kevin Rich made a motion to approve site plan as submitted. Ellen Battaglini seconded and it passed 3:0:1.

 

Anne Howard made a motion to approve minutes from January 4, 2006. Ellen Battaglini seconded and it passed 3:0:1.

Motion to adjourn. Meeting adjourned at 6:10 p.m.

 

Respectfully submitted,

Phyllis Lutsky
