OLD LYME ZONING COMMISSION
MINUTES OF SPECIAL MEETING
Monday, January 28, 2008


The Old Lyme Zoning Commission held a Special Meeting on Monday, January 28, 2008 at 7:30 p.m. at the Church of Christ the King Parish Center.  Members present were Tom Risom (Chairman), Jane Cable (Vice Chairman), Jane Marsh (Secretary), Patrick Looney, John Johnson, Steve Ames (Alternate) and Howard Tooker (Alternate).  Also present was Ann Brown, Zoning Enforcement Officer.
        
1.      Convene Meeting; announcement of voting alternates.

Chairman Risom called the Special Meeting to order at 7:33 p.m.  He noted that the five regular members are present.  The Regular Meeting reconvened at 9:28 p.m.  

2.      Old Lyme Country Club

Chairman Risom noted that the public hearing has been closed but the Commission deferred their decision to get an answer from Tom Metcalf regarding the drainage, because the retention ponds had been eliminated.  He noted that Mr. Metcalf responded and indicated that there never was real discussion about moving along the east side of McCurdy up to the pond.  Mr. Tooker noted that the original approval had a condition for guardrails which would no longer be needed since the ponds have been eliminated.

The Commission agreed to defer their decision to the February Regular Meeting so that Ms. Brown could compile a motion to approve with conditions.

No action taken.  The Public Hearing for this item has been continued to the February 13, 2007 Regular Meeting.

5.      Correspondence

None.

6.      Miscellaneous/Adjourn

Ms. Marsh indicated that she would like to have extra sets of drawings for the meeting so that she may look at them during the presentation.  Ms. Brown explained that she had enough to carry and left the extra sets at the office but would bring more for the next meeting.

Mr. Kiritsis indicated that he sat for the Public Hearing earlier in the month.  He noted that Mr. Johnson is back and indicated that if Mr. Johnson listened to the tape he would be eligible to vote.  Mr. Risom noted that if Mr. Johnson were able to listen to the tapes he should state so at the start of the next meeting.

Chairman Risom noted that this would be Mr. Ames last meeting.  Ms. Marsh stated that Mr. Ames is one of the most faithful alternate that has ever been on the Commission.

A motion was made by John Johnson, seconded by Jane Cable and voted unanimously to adjourn at 9:51 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,
