Chair Leib called the meeting to order at 7:03 PM. He introduced the members, noting that Alternate Member Kevin Bassett would be sitting in for member Jim Howard. He explained the Board tonight would be made up of four members, rather than 5 members that make up a full board. He also announced that due to illness, the Board was also without a recording secretary. Chair Leib opened the public hearing for
Case 07-08R Motion for Rehearing from Attorney Christopher Boldt on behalf of Paul and Leslie Longueil for an Area Variance to Article VI Section A1, requiring a curb cut in the required minimum frontage, to allow access to two proposed building sites on Cooper Hill Road through right-of-ways that cross abutting lots. The lot being discussed is located on Cooper Hill Road, identified as Tax Map 16 Lot 15A, and is owned by Paul and Leslie Longueil Revocable Trust of 1996.
Chair Leib said he would be inclined to recess the hearing to a future date when a recording secretary was available, as he did not feel it was possible for a sitting board member to both take minutes and participate in the discussion of a case this complex. Attorney Boldt stated he was in favor of a recess, as he wanted to have a hearing with a full 5-member board. A date of April 1, 2008 was agreed to by all parties.
Motion: Morin, second Russo to recess case # 07-08R to Tuesday April 1, 2008 at 7:00PM.
Vote: 4-0 in favor.
Attorney Boldt provided the Board with revised subdivision plans and copies of Request for Findings of Fact and rulings of law for members to review for the April 1st hearing.
OTHER BUSINESS:
Chair Leib informed the Board that one new application had been received and a date needed to be set for a hearing. A date of March 18, 2008 was agreed to for the Nelson Smith application.
Chair Leib distributed the mail and conference information to the members. Any members interested in attending the upcoming conferences should make arrangements through the ZBA secretary of the Selectmen’s Office.
MINUTES
January 29, 2008:
Mr. Bassett wanted to clarify that his question regarding findings of fact forms was intended to see if he could have the form at the onset of the hearing, so he could take notes during the discussions. Chair Leib noted his name was misspelled on line 6 from the bottom of page 1.
Mr. Bassett made a motion to accept the minutes of January 29, 2008 with 2 corrections. Mr. Russo seconded the motion. All in favor. Motion passed 4-0.
Mr. Russo made a motion to adjourn the meeting. Mr. Bassett seconded the motion. All in favor. Motion passed 4-0.
