members were present: Joseph Mahoney, Chairman, Richard Rowen,

The structure is a one story building constructed in the early

and are now ready to expand. A 9500 square foot one story addition
is proposed. Deliveries would be on the west side of the building;
landscape would be ornamental trees and shrubs.

Mr. Bourgeois replied approximately 150 feet when all is done.
Mrs. Condon, 89 Marian Drive, stated that the present floodlights
light up her house at night in the winter time.
Mr. Bourgeois proposed a "boxed down" light for the building, and
they would replace existing lights with these also.
There will be 15 new employees bringing the work force to 65
people. The hours of work are 7 a.m. to midnight. Truck
deliveries are in early evening only.
Edward Condon, abutter, asked if the pond will be fenced in?
Mr. Bourgeois stated that it is not really a pond, but a detention
pond. It is not designedtto hold water.
Mr. Simons asked about the landscape plan.
Mr. Bourgeois replied they would plant ornamental trees and shrubs.
There will be no filling of wetlands, so no replications are
needed.
Mr. Mahoney asked if they would be adding to the air conditioning
and heating units.
Mr. Bourgeois stated yes, additional units will be comparable to
existing units.
Ms. Colwell asked if there was a dumpster on site and is it
enclosed?
Mr. Bourgeois replied yes, there is a dumpster, and no, it is not
enclosed.
Mr. Colwell stated that it will have to be enclosed.
Mr. Bourgeois pointed out on the plan where three chemical storage
units were located.
Mr. Condon, abutter, asked what kind of chemicals?
Ms. Shibels replied acids, alkalines.
Ms. Colwell stated that the drainage report was received today, and
there are some changes, nothing major.
On a motion by Mr. Simons, seconded by Mr. Angles, the public
hearing will be continued until September 19, 1995 .

for the site walk. She met Carol Shibels, owner of Central Metal
Finishing, and Mr. & Mrs. Krieger, abutters at the site.
The Krieger's live directly behind the site and claimed that noise
and lighting coming from there was very disturbing. It was
discovered, however, during the site walk that the noise and
lighting were coming from another business, not Central Metal
Finishing. Ms. Shibels stated that if there were any problems,
people were to contact her and they would be discussed and
hopefully taken care of.
The equipment at Central Metal Finishing was left on all night, and
it was decided that not much noise at all was present, just a dull
hum.
Ms. Colwell stated that the drainage calcs have come back and final
changes will be made. All hazardous chemicals will be stored

FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. The specific site is an appropriate location for the project as it is
zoned for Business and is an addition to the existing industrial building;

downcast and will not shine off site. There will be landscaping added to
the rear of the property if necessary to provide screening,
