Special Meeting
The PLANNING BOARD held a special meeting on Monday evening, January 18,
1971 in the Town Office Building with the following members present and voting:
Charles W. Trombly, Acting Chairman; John J. Monteiro, Secretary; Robert J.
Burke and Donald N. Keirstead. William Chepulis, Jr., Chairman, arrived later.
This meeting was called to discuss the proposed business and industrial zoning
recommendations which John Brown submitted to the Board last week.
BEN OSGOOD:
Ben Osgood presented plans to the Board for signature as Not Requiring
Plaguing Board approval. The plans were for Land Vest Corporation and were
rather confusing, After lengthy discussion it was decided that no action would
be taken until the next regular meeting on February 1st.
PROPOSED BUSINESS & INDUSTRIAL DISCUSSION:
The Board then proceeded to discuss the material submitted by John Brown.
Mr. Keirstead presented copies of a drawing showing areas, setbacks, etc. of
the & different business zones as proposed. A lengthy discussion was held.
They discussed 100 foot setbacks in business and industrial areas and how possibly
in the future there could be frontage and access roads along the highway. They
should possibly require 100 foot setbacks on all business areas. Setbacks should
be uniform along Rtes. 114 & 125.
Mr. Chepulis said he held a discussion with John Brown and that Mr. Brown said
these various side matters are taking alot of his time away from matters that
are required under the contract and that he should be paid on side matters not
under that phase of the contract.
The Board feels something should be done soon on the Sign By-Law. They think
business regulations and the sign by-law are the most important items now.
Industrial regulations could be left out for the time being; the Board feels our
present regulations are adequate for now. They discussed ret~4~4~g a planner
after the completion of a master plan, on a part-time basis or in some way that
would benefit the to~n.
Several changes were noted on the material received and these will be discussed
again when the B~ard meets with the PAC on Monday evening, January 25th.
The meeting adjourned at 10:00 P.M.
