Bear Hill Road - Lot 2 - Special Permit
Zachary Alexanian reported that there is a discrepancy in the
approved plan for a Special Permit and the plot plan given to
the Town Planner by the Building Inspector. The plan Mr. Alexanian
was working off was the original plan submitted to the Planning Board
which has been changed. The Board discussed bringing the house
closer to Road A. It was worked into the Order of Conditions that
the proposed dwelling be brought forward to a 40 foot setback. It
was shown on a revised plan. The plot plan shows the setback at
49 feet. Mr. Alexanian said that he changed engineers and he did
not have the revised plan. The house is framed.
Member Nitzsche suggested that the Board hold another public hearing
on the matter.
Town Planner Pomroy added that the Building Inspector will not allow
any more construction because it does not comply with the Special
Permit granted by the Planning Board.
No action - Board to check with Chairman to determine if another
public hearing is necessary.
