Cordis Mills – Draft Response to Board of Appeals Application
Two variances are being requested, for height and parking, property located at 65 Canal Street.
Mrs. Lewandowski advised the Board that two other developments in the center of town were previously denied because they did not comply with the height restrictions. She is also concerned with the number of parking spaces and the fact that there is only one way in and out.
The Board will ask the Fire Chief for comments, in particular, whether the town has fire apparatus that will be able to access a building of that height.
The Board did not want parking to interfere with CVS or the town’s lot at Windle Field. Snow removal was also identified as a potential issue.
The Board will draft its letter to the Board of Appeals at its next meeting.

Motion by Anna Lewandowski, seconded by Gary Schold, to enter into Executive Session for the purpose of discussing pending litigation, and to return to open meeting only for the purpose of adjournment. Upon unanimous roll call vote, motion carried.
Adjournment
Motion to adjourn by Edd Cote, seconded by Paul Piktelis, motion carried unanimously. Meeting adjourned at 8:15 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Susan M. Dean
