PUBLIC HEARINGS
NEW
PUBLIC HEARING, 5 Boston Hill: Metro PCS application for a renewal of a Wireless Special Permit.
J. Enright: This application is for a renewal of the Special Permit only, not a modification.
M. Hutchins’ report has not been received yet; however, he sent an email stating that he does not have any problems with the application and he will send his review in a day or two.
Bill
McQuade, representing Metro PCS: The Special Permit was originally issued August 18, 2009. There are no modifications or changes to the equipment being requested. This is purely a
renewal of a Special Permit. Boston Hill is a remote, heavily industrialized site. M. Hutchins has reviewed the application; however, he has been unable to publish a report. B. McQuade
requested that the Board conditionally approve the renewal request contingent on M. Hutchins letter being received and to have the Town Planner fill in the date of the letter in the
Decision. There is no compelling reason for the request, just an economy of time.
The Board preferred to follow form and hold it over until the next meeting.
D. Kellogg: Asked if
the recent Permit Extension Act applied to this application.
The Board requested further explanation of the permit extension that was recently approved.
MEETING MINUTES: Approval
of August 7, 2012 meeting minutes.
MOTION
A motion was made by M. Colantoni to approve the August 7, 2012 meeting minutes, as amended. The motion was seconded by D. Kellogg. The vote
was 5-0 in favor. J. Simons abstained.
D. Kellogg: Asked the Board if they felt there was reason for him to recuse himself from the pending application for 72 Great Pond Road due
to the fact that the applicant built and sold him his home.
The Board did not feel this was reason to recuse himself as long as he did not feel pressure that would affect his decision.

MOTION:
A motion was made by R. Rowen to adjourn the meeting. The motion was seconded by D. Kellogg. The vote was unanimous.
