Business Meeting
Chair Jacob read Wellfleet Zoning Board of Appeals Rules and Procedures, dated January 1998, paragraph 2, which stated the Board consists of five Regular Members and four Alternate Members. Due to a procedural error on the Board of Selectmen’s part, six regular members have been assigned to the Board. He stated the five Regular Board members consist of Vern Jacob, Robert Hankey, Bruce Drucker, William Nicholson and Manny Heyliger, who was approved as a Regular Board member by the Board of Selectmen on July 1, 2007.
Helen Miranda Wilson was appointed as a Regular Member of the Board, for which she cannot serve and she is not eligible to be an alternate as that was not her appointment. Bruce Drucker stated Hellen Miranda Wilson’s appointment was to replace Trevor Pontbriand, whose term would have expired on 6/30/09.
Bruce Drucker read an e-mail from Committee Secretary Christine Bates regarding site visits by the Board and Board members.
Jacob stated he has issues with the 250 Gull Pond project because no escrow account has been set up as yet for the Board to have a consulting engineer review the safety issues of the driveway. The Board will require East Cape’s engineer to provide a stamped license signature on letterhead stating “in their opinion, the driveway is safe”. The Board would like to see that all standards are met in terms of safety issues. The Board agreed with DPW’s recommendation of contacting Coastal Engineering to review plans as well as Richard Lay’s concerns regarding safety. Christine Bates will be in contact with Coastal Engineering inviting them to the August 14th meeting to be interviewed in an open meeting being selected to review this project.
Robert Hankey moved to support the action of the Chair regarding Board appointments; seconded by Bruce Drucker; passed 8-0.
Roger Putnam moved to adjourn at 8:35 am; seconded by Manny Heyliger; passed 8-0.
Respectfully submitted,
Christine A. Bates, Committee Secretary
