[Music] we need to stop We have enough uh board members at this time to uh open the meeting All meetings are televised live and available on demand by Chelmsford Tele media Public input Public input
shall be limited to statements from the public relating to issues with the jur with the jurisdiction of the Chelton zoning board of appeals that are not currently the subject of a pending public hearing before the zoning board of appeals Public comment on any pending public hearings shall only be heard
during such public hearings and may be limited to three minutes time There's daily So that's wonderful Our first public hearing is five morning glory circle Nicholas Warren is requesting a special permit under section
1959B conformity for a 20% reduction in the front setback requirement of a 40 ft to build a 11.5 by 14 foot sunroom addition and other relief deemed necessary This property is located in
the residential RB district Someone here representing five Morning Glory tonight Good evening If I could get your name and address for the letter Hi my name is Tom Black with Morgan Exteriors the contractor We have representing the
Warren Uh our address is 78 London Turnpike in Hooks at New Hampshire Good evening Like to give a little overview Yeah So basically we're looking again the reason for the location and
um the sizes obviously to fit within the parameters for the uh the 80% Uh the back of the property is pretty much all wetlands If you look at that whole neighborhood that's Heart Lake It's it's all the the wetlands running off of that Uh so we don't have to contend with the
wetlands issues Um as far as the build uh you're looking at this is all this is a stick build project that will blend right with the house Uh aesthetically uh it will match it It's not going
to devalue any the neighborhood whatsoever Um passes all energy codes as far as uh actually it's like 15% better than what it needs to be energy codewise I've never done one of these 10
variances So kind of don't know exactly what you're looking for Um pretty much it's a straightforward project Yeah I mean the the special permit is less ownorous than the varian so you should be in in good shape Okay We just want to know what what you were doing Um
we we have them in I think it's more for the general the footings I mean we the the footings that we we did we use the uh pre-cast cement so that we don't we don't have to do any uh Yeah It's going to be on peers Oh yeah But it's all the pre-cast So they just basically you can dig a trench drop them in There's no
mixing of concrete on site or anything like that Okay Are there any questions from the board regarding this application D Well my only question is is there a reason it had to be in the front of the house Yeah the it's
wetlands and back uh amongst other things but wetlands is the biggest concern with with the back and there's already a similar room like this in the back Uh but I have letters here So it's pretty conforming
Um is the enclosed area going to be windows Is there going to be sliders Sliding windows Um rough drawing if you want to have a look See here four skylights We're probably going to u drop it down to two because of losing
the initial size Initially we're looking at putting four skylights in but with the reduction in size to meet the 80% uh we're probably going to reduce two of those skylights Any further questions I'm going to read the
letters I have a letter from Sheila Joyce project engineer uh for the town This office has reviewed the project application plans and documents submitted to the DPW on March 28th 2025 for the following public hearing notice
on April 3rd 2025 by Morning Glory Circle Nicholas Warren's requesting a special permit under section 1959 conformity for a 20% reduction in the front setback requirement of a 40 foot to build in a to build an 11.5 by 14 ft
sunroom addition and other additions seemed necessary As a result of this review the office has the following comments The proposed addition will be near or possibly over the existing SE sewer service Applicant must contact the DPW sewer division to coordinate any
necessary action to preserve or alter the sewer service Erosion control devices must retain the sediment on site These must be installed prior to any work or earth disturbance Consideration should be made to install roof drain drywalls to keep the storm water runoff
within the property This is not a requirement for approval I have a letter from conservation regarding the special permit and they have no concerns due to the location of the addition Chsson Water District has no
concerns The Chson Police Department has no concerns The Board of Health has no concerns Fire prevention has no concerns And there are no concerns from the Treasury collector That's the extent of my letters at this
time Unless there's further questions I'll open this up to the audience for a comment If anyone in the audience would like to speak in favor or opposition to this application now is the time Seeing none I'd like to close the meeting for the public meeting for five
morning glory No sorry Yeah Five morning glory Make a motion Is that important I think that's that way You should say I should make a motion Yeah I'll make a motion to close the hearing Close the public hearing Second Second by Peter All in favor I
unanimous So I think we can take this up uh quickly Doesn't be any concerns as to doing it It's a special permit not a variance And uh you know where they put it in the house is kind of their purview I'm sure they're looking for the the morning or
the afternoon sun whatever their thoughts are with that I'd like to make a motion to approve five Morning Joy Drive um under section 195-9 subsection B for conformity of 20%
to the front porch Um just Morning Glory Circle Morning Glory Circle Sorry Oh it says Morning Glory Drive drives Glory Circle They'll be putting it on somebody else's house Okay you're right That's probably
happened before Fortunately not for us Second by roof jobs have happened like unanimous Good luck with it Thank you Appreciate So we do not need Steven to proceed as well
like Morning Glory Drive Circle Are you up on the Mullen Did you submit it to the clerk Is it in the clerk's file It's in the clerk's file Stanford Yeah it's definitely there Clerk has it right And I have a I definitely took a copy today because I know I was late on getting it but I remembered this was
like oh crap so she could give it to you this evening and it wouldn't be a problem Yeah if it's with the clerk Yeah it's definitely with clerk and they stamped it I have it st a stamped copy too Next public hearing is continued Marose Avenue Cobblestone 5 LLC is requesting a
comprehensive permit 40B Pursuant to chap master laws chapters 40B the project proposes to construct five rental unions of which four will be duplexes And so this is still uh that's still correct And one will be a single
structure but not a not a second floor project located in the residential RA district Good evening Uh good evening Mr Chair Thank you Uh sorry to miss the last meeting Uh for the record attorney Melissa Robbins from Ferrell and Robbins Also with me tonight is Katie Enight
from Howard Stein Hudson Casey Fero from Howard Stein Hudson and Larry Gagnon who is the applicant As you stated we're here tonight for our continued public hearing And we don't have a lot of new information Uh we made a very minor change to the site plan which shows a sewer detail that was had to be uh
revised due to one of the outstanding comments So that had been made Uh no other changes have been made to the site plan whatsoever I know that there are some new comments in the file and a draft decision Uh most of the comments or I think all of the comments were nothing
that we needed to respond to They were non-responsive comments Uh but they did see that the North Chumpsford Water District had a comment in there about D I just want to remind the board that we have to comply with D We cannot ask for waiverss from state regulations So
should D come down with an order we would have to comply Um and the board can't wave any of that Uh other than that uh we have nothing new to submit but we're happy to answer any questions the board may have or go through the decision
Okay Are there any questions Melissa of the board Seeing none I think we could pull up the draft decision and start uh reviewing that a little bit We have that as well Oh okay Let's just remember work from there Each of you have a hard copy in
front of you Everyone should have a hard copy somewhere Take a minute and look through this Uh I don't know if you could I just noticed a typo in number two I think it should be 2020
September 5 2024 Oh yeah 20 does feel like it's been going on It might say I don't know if you want to put Oh I said no No november March 7th
2024 meeting Oh yep Sorry Alex Where was it Uh sorry Number two It should be September 5 2024 November 2024 What was the second one Uh just November 7th on the same line Uh the same uh
number two should have a 2024 and then March 6th would be 25 which is right and April 3rd would be 25 which is right Everybody's checking every date Or is it Nice second As people are going through it this this
mirrors the typical boilerplate decision that we've used over the years Um middle of middle of the uh decision talks about uh conditions there's some postapproval
submission conditions related to final plans final details that are administratively handled section D construction completion certificate of occupancy Um what you won't find in this
decision is a lot of special conditions That's primarily due to the fact that the um the limited scope and scale of the project compared to other 40bs The plans are rather detailed uh landscaping buffering screening
lighting Um all of that was covered in either the plans or the um modified plans per the public hearing uh discussions And then the uh final couple pages are the codification of the
waiverss that were were originally requested um and uh for the boards several you've granted already and severals would be um would be codified as part of the uh the
vote Only thing I really is that it will be on sewer due to the way we're granting uh question about uh do is there a requirement of a pre-construction meeting or or is that not you don't put that as a uh I believe it's in here it's
I believe it's mentioned in the uh DPW comments are there letters oh it's in the letter okay so it's not a condition Yeah I think it's Yeah it's E1 E1 Yeah Oh okay Yep Yep
If it's approved tonight when you expect uh it would be ready for occupancy Mr Chair if I may So well so after the approved after the comprehensive permit is actually approved we have to go back to the state uh for something called the final approval process Um so 20 days
following the entry of this decision to the clerk If approved we go back to mass housing That's when we actually draft the regulatory documents u get our um actual commitment letter from our lender and finalize our lottery plan for the affordable unit After all that is approved and recorded at the registry of
deeds that usually takes about 90 days Uh construction usually commences about 60 days following that So we're looking about Lar doesn't want to hear this but this we're talking about probably four to five months before we actually start substantial construction
completed So pretty quick construction timeline once we get a shovel in the ground Then Evan am I correct in that Um we will still be quite a ways from uh achieving our 10% No we're we're right
at the cusp but we're still waiting for David's choice project No No Um we are short nine units right now So this count there'll be four left This is only one in here No no All five All five They all count or the whole five
will count because they're rentals We're nine short We're within grasp May you know within within depending on what happens this evening within a week or two we'll be submitting all the paperwork necessary to be in compliance
And Mr Chair just for clarification your council can clarify this as well but once this decision is actually entered with the clerk you can get these decisions counted on the inventory and they stay on your inventory as long as we start construction within a year
So Evan again you said there was five and according to the notes here it says 32 This this project is five Five units right But how many do we need Nine We need nine Yep Four Can you explain on
page Well I guess it's page three the bottom of it how that interprets against what you were saying Yeah This this this Yeah you're referring to the an email that I sent to a resident Yeah From Marine Paul Yeah So I provided her that
information That was back in um November of 24 At that time we were 32 short Since then the eight units at three meeting house have been added to the 10%
Um five units at Dalton Road uh were added Um we are in the process of adding submitting the six units at UMass West Treml Crow next week and depending on how this one goes
we'll be in a position to add the five for this project And the new SH the new SHI that was issued had some additional group home group homes that were added to the inventory There's the there's the delta right there
Well that's good So we're we're within grasp So if if the choice units had come forward sooner then if the choice units had come come in when we initially
anticipated 3 four years ago um we never would have fallen below 10% And and the project in front of us now wouldn't wouldn't be there not not only this one but the others that um that have been submitted to the town in which the
select board has provided comments to HLC on behalf of the town which are both of them have received site approval letters so they're free and clear to submit to the zoning board at any at any time So timing is everything
Mhm [Music] Further questions regarding the draft decision Draft seems good We uh I have comment I did receive on your letter that was in your packet an
email this afternoon Comments were not on the agenda I have a letter from Moren Pollson uh dated April 3rd 2025 As I will not be available to attend tonight's ZBA meeting I just want
to express my continued concerns with the proposed project While understand while understand the ZBA's limitation with respect to this being a 40B project there still remains the issue that was previous has been proposed for a single family home to be built on this plot of
land At that time the town of Chamser denied the request noting the lot was considered unbuildable It begs the question how an unbuildable lot can suddenly become buildable for not a single family home but a project encompassing multiple structures with
five units of residences The neighborhood itself is made up of single family homes with the exception of I believe one property that had an in-law style apartment added to onto the house Having a project of this magnitude does not fit the neighborhood At most if the
lot is now considered buildable it should only encompass a single family home or a duplex at most While explained at the previous ZBA meeting as to why the board felt it necessary to approve the two rather requests for the project I think that serves as an example of 40B
being used to bypass a prior decision made by the town for the designation of an unbuildable lot I respect the decision is made in order to maintain control of the project at the town level instead of denying it and then going to the housing court where
the town loses the ability to negotiate on the size or scope of the project It should be taken into consideration that at the very least the size and scope of the project should be downsized There are other 40b projects that are proposed
in the pipeline that will more provide more than enough units of affordable housing that it seems this project isn't necessary to meet that demand This is based on an email that I received from Evan on or about 11:14 2024 in which he
advised the following The town is currently at 9.78% This equals 1438 of the total 14,696 housing units based upon the 2020 census This is 32 shorts units short of
reaching 10% Previously approved projects that are in the process of being submitted for inclusion are three meeting house eight new units to be submitted next week UMW TCR six new units to be submitted by
the end of the calendar year And MW Choice 48 new units to be submitted next year 75 Dalton five units no timetable 61 Carlile five units no timetable Thank you again for your consideration Moren
Pollson 23 Edgelon Avenue So again the uh statement that timing is everything is very accurate in this case The applicant has a right to apply for it and he is in the pipeline as as of now So as of now we are not compliant We
are close We would like to be compliant I understand the neighborhood is not in favor of adding to the density of it I I just uh can only tell you that we've tried our hardest to accommodate the neighbors reducing the height of the
buildings uh insisting on sewer as opposed to septic and trying to keep storm water manageable on site So I'd like to tell you we've done our best Uh the project is it stands on its own merits if if it's denied uh it will go
to the court to the housing court and they will decide if any or all of the applications and that the uh the adjustments made are necessary They could say you don't need to use uh sewer You can add units It's it's wide
open So we are doing our best to uh protect the town and and obey the law Thanks Brian I agree with you 100% The only thing is I wanted to say on the letter you just read there's one sentence in there that tells you the whole story and the and it is I think
that serves as an example of 40B being used to bypass a prior decision made by the town for the designation of an unbuildable lot And and that's that's what this is all about you know plain and simple in my mind
But it is their their right They're right Exactly Right Would anyone like to uh speak in favor in opposition of this Uh I think we believe we're going to uh take a vote a little later this evening Hi there Good
evening It'll be short and not technical tonight Okay Excellent Excellent All right First I want to start Can I get your name and address for the record I should know this but I'm Cindy Lazinski 20 years long Thank you Uh good stewardship is the responsible and careful management of
resources that are entrusted to one's care emphasizing wise use and accountability First I'd like to thank the board for your time throughout this process I appreciate your commitment and I'm very grateful that I've had the opportunity to come up here and express
some of my concerns regarding this project The decision the board makes matters not just to one but to the thousands of residents who rely on your good stewardship A lot of hard work has gone into groundwater protection safe drinking water act on a federal level
mass D on a state level and as a town we've adopted these safeguards and implemented a lot of our own as well and we are on the cusp of losing them I asked the board to honor and enforce these protections we have in place
It was never the intent of mass 40B to contribute to the degradation of groundwater quality but a high percentage of impervious in 14 vehicles leaking oil and gasoline is never an appropriate answer to proper groundwater
protection No one should ever have the right to wave a board of health document that was created specifically to protect our groundwater It is clear the authors of 40B have little understanding of source water
protection No one should ever have the right to build on an aquifer A designated mass DP zone 2 wellhead protection zone Good stewardship is everyone's responsibility and I hope that message will be heard up on Beacon Hill Thank
you so much for your time Thank you I appreciate it May I I have one so I'll give that to you for the public record Thank you very much Thank you Thank you [Music]
Seeing no other statements letters um the departmental letters I had uploaded onto the agenda for everyone to see from the revised plans The only thing is the DPW letter the web link was a mistake What got put on the agenda was actually a
copy of the previous public hearing So in the packets in front of you I had a hard copy made of the DPW letter [Applause] This is the only one that's changed right Yeah So I'll read this in sewer comments Per the town sewer capacity
restriction policy a sewer lateral is limited to an increase of 500 GPD gallons per day There is an ability for development to purchase additional capacity However that capacity is limited to commercial and municipal needs There is no sewer connection at
Marose Avenue parcel 255930 Further sewer capacity credit transfer policy The residential properties are not eligible to provide sewer credits Our previous comments still remain valid If the variance has been granted outside of the DPW
authority then this is an unprecedented circumstance DPW's understanding is a sewer credit one:1 fee must be paid prior to the certificate of occupancy The fee is $35 per gallon at 2:1 ratio for the
replacement through one one uh oh one would be $35 per gallon 2:1 is 1650 gallons per day 15 bedrooms So that pretty much
exceeds our our request Anyways based on title five wastewater flow rates the anticipated maximum daily wastewater flow from this property is 1650 gallons per day five units times three bedrooms times 110 gallons per day
The property would connect to the existing 8 inch polyvinyl chloride PVC sewer on Marose Avenue The existing sewer in Marose Avenue is a tributary to the existing 8 in PVC sewer on the Richardson Road and ultimately flows to
the Richardson Road pump station located on Richardson Road The Richardson Road pump station conveys waste water from the pump station via 6-in ductile iron DI force main into the existing 8-in PVC sewer in the Highland Avenue near house
number 42 Richardson Road pump station was originally built in 1989 The town has evaluated the sewer flow of the sewer mains in Morose and the contributing sewer flow to Richardson Road pump station The proposed flow does not show any adverse impacts to the
Richardson Road pump station That is the extent of the new letter from the Department of Public Works Yes Just have a question for Reban Of the additional 25 units to uh get to our compliance Do any of these room require
us to get involved with sewer verse Any any 40B that comes to you moving forward you'll have to um be involved with the same issue Did you read the public department of health one already
I'm assuming so Not tonight March 31st I'm I'm sorry So So it sounds like it's something we're going to have to deal with for the additional 40bs which hopefully we don't have too anymore coming in front of us Well according to
evidence they will be coming in front of us Will you have additional ones in the pipeline All of these that are listed on the sheet will be coming to us No no none of those will be coming to you Oh none of them No there are septic There are
several projects There are several potential 40b projects that have gone through the initial step before it gets to you They are free and clear at this point to submit to you anytime they want to
But they haven't as of yet Correct So it's almost a precedent Well I I I think that we spent a lot of time trying to decide whether we were okay with sewer or septic and and certainly from a neighborhood standpoint the septic was unacceptable So I I think
that by going to sewer We we've done the best we can for the project I uh I'm not sure what the town's going to do about capacity I you know I heard that LOL put a hundred million into uh separating their waste water and their sewer water Uh
maybe that goes far enough to open up some capacity I I really don't know the politics of that at all but I know that LOL has an enormous amount of storm water that enters the sewer system and that's when it floods every time it rains is this is storm
water coming in there that shouldn't be processed through Duck Island So if that can get repaired a little I think the capacity may open up for the town I don't know I think uh if everyone is comfortable
with the draft review we can close the public hearing and take a vote Anything else to No Mr Chairman No Would any like to make a motion to close I would like to make a motion to close the public hearing on Marose
Whatever D we want to uh expound on an address and um have chos um was just to close the public hearing motion to close it I'm sorry Who seconded Was it Danny Danny Thank you
All in favor I did I didn't even hear Danny There you go Can I just this the the protection of the zone 2 aquifer and
the removing and adding the removing of the disturbing of the ground and removing adding of the asphalt and the impacting it's going to have like where I I get the 40B right but Don't [Music]
we having known that this is in a high aquifer zone right this property right doesn't that give us a a a way to look at the impact it will play adding
removing and disturbing all that ground adding all this asphalt and potentially impacting acting in a negative way our our water resource I mean I get any any choice we make if we
deny can be appealed at at at the state level but would it not be a viable argument considering its classification in the aquifer and the level
of change and manipulation of current natural ground to new proposed Well it's an interesting question I think that all the engineering that has been done says that this can be done to
state standards Uh if if Katie wanted to expound on that should I take my motion back to close the hearing Brian should I take my motion back to close the public hearing can't Yeah I don't I don't know if I mean I' I've heard I've heard again
and and I've heard it I've heard that all the engineering says that it would comply with regulations I I get that But that is everything I mean that is what it says
They're complying with the requirements They're not getting a waiver on being in the aquafer district District 2 There's no we didn't make any waiver for that or adjustment for it I mean there are are there 40 homes in the neighborhood right
now that have been there for 50 years I think all of them closer to the aquifer than the Marose site I'm not uh trying to make light of it but it it's the construction I think is going to be be done and there'll be some disturbance but once that's
complete the the storm water should improve on the whole street I mean anything that enters that site is going to stay on that site and be treated on that site That's that's what they spent an awful lot of time and effort to
ensure The town has reviewed it The uh the engineers of the town agree that it's it's to the state federal and and local requirements I mean we've looked at that and and I believe they've complied they uh obviously going
to have to put that into action but that's reviewed as well It's inspected It's I mean what they're doing should improve that space And I I believe that's the case I I don't I don't know It's a It's And I I think there's no
implica like just because there's construction going on in an aquifer that is allowed We we see that all across Massachusetts It's is there any hazardous materials that would get within that groundwater And based on all the information we know
there is not any hazardous materials that would get into the groundwater The storm water is meeting all the 10 storm water standards So I don't see a something that would show that there would be an adverse impact going into
the aquafer protection district I I don't believe we're putting the aquifer at risk Uh you could certainly say you're adding to the stresses that are there and I think that's an unfortunate reality I I mean
the non-build the non-buildable classification prior to was because of size not the zoning Okay It wasn't zoned a lot ever I think it was the proximity to Route Three actually that it applied for a variance a number of years
ago The board did not grant those variances to make it available But it had more to do with size and such Not aquafer I I don't think No nothing to do with Okay Was frontage of the lot It couldn't
qualify as a rear lot because it was too small and it didn't have the frontage to be Yeah That didn't qualify mostly because of square footage It had to be 60,000 Okay That's what I thought Okay I just wanted to confirm 40
60 R 60 RB is 40 Before you end deliberation can you just review who's who's voting I can It's going to be myself Jamie Charlie Peter and Danny Is that correct
And Glenn Glenn Yeah Steve is not here Join us Danny's not voting Oh you're not voting I thought he was the alternate for Jamie but Jamie just submitted the Mullen affidavit Oh gotcha That's why Okay And Steven was not eligible to vote in those two
hearings Okay If someone like to make a motion I think we can move this ahead Um I'll make a motion but I just want to say that this um this is the first time I made a motion to approve a 40B I usually deny them but this time it's far I make a
motion to approve the 40B Monroe SAV um requesting permit 40B pursuant to Mass General Lodge Chapter 40B Um this project composes of five rental units four of which will be duplexes and one a single family This property being
located at the RA district parcel ID map 25 block 59 lot 30 and consists of approximately 1.05 acres and I'd like to make note of all the letters right into record that shall be um followed
Got to get a second I'll second that Second by Peter All in favor I opposed We have a super majority That's a super majority Wrong You're wrong Thank you very much
Mr Chair Thank you very much Appreciate it Thanks for coming Good luck with everything Okay take care everyone Thank you for your time Appreciate you making it in I know it was a trick today Pleasure Love you every day Thanks Alex Good luck Yes
Thank you Okay Before we leave just could you have Brian just sign the the signature sheet I have the um signature sheets for myself or or all the voters Okay just you and we'll get it in tomorrow You're on the hook Those items on the first
page Just have them sign the signature page That's what I'm thinking It's a very difficult thing and and I don't I don't take it lightly but neither do I I think we did our best So just worried if he got kicked up and
then he lost everything on the board voted affirmed The board voted Oh nice I didn't know what they were looking for They had a lot of good speakers Yeah your first national Yeah it was my first one That was Yeah those
are usually good events Yeah those are good parking and then we worry that how we deal with that right now Oh this is so I don't even have to come down here
Do we get rid of it sometimes completely I'm just like like I don't know Do we do that Do we not do that Or do we just like go slowly reduce it slowly and then see how it does Huh
Yeah I mean I've read through all of it I just don't know how somebody the state legislature can't go Let's draft I know We tried work our representative but it's just
the dumbest thing ever We're trying to put an offering right through that dirt road Our next hearing is Ledge Road uh owner Ledge Road Realy Trust Holdings We have a request for a continuation to June 25th
before I get a motion for that Make a motion to make June 5th 2020 I'm sorry Make a motion to I I just think that Charlie wanted to speak on this a moment before we uh I just want to go down on the record saying that um that we really need Newport here Um we're missing them
for two two months That's that's not very good in my mind because the people in our channel that are going through this truck traffic that they should not be going through and um even if they are doing anything no matter what they're doing they should be here telling us what they're doing so that um people
have not chanced to have uh less truck traffic and that's all I wanted to say Thank you Glenn You know if if Newport is coming to the meeting someone from Westwood should come to the meeting It gives some history to this I was on the
board of selectmen when this first came about And Westford was basically saying you know Chumps was trying to get something done in advance not waiting to the end Now we're coming down to really the end And they basically ignored us
And uh you know I think that in some ways the rapport between Chumsford and Westford has been reputably compromised for sure over this whole issue I also like to say that I went over there again I I visited the site back when I was on the board of
selectment and I went back over there to look at it again and I met with one of the individuals who made a presentation on the 2nd of January and he indicated that they had planned to have 125 people here tonight and that maybe we need to
look at a different venue for that meeting if that amount of people is going to show up Uh people in opposition to business So uh I think that's a consideration Uh Evan I don't know what else is available or whether we should look at a school or um we can certainly
do that and we can find an al an alternate location the um it needs to be a location in which tele media can reasonably accommodate the live broadcast Um so the senior center Oh
that's a is is a good option requires tele media to do a uh at least a full day setup So it's it's a significant um undertaking Um did we advertise any new public
hearings for June 5th yet Not yet Okay All right So we will we'll find a uh an alternative for for June 5th We have plenty of time I don't know if you'll be in contact I'd say we really would like them to uh
appear on June 5th as well Yeah So just just to clarify uh as you recall at the last meeting uh the board had requested that um the applicant meet with the town
That's exactly that's exactly what's been going on since your last meeting So so okay Newport's legally required to submit the request for continuance Y but my understanding is the the the request is because Newport and the town continue
to have discussions and and some some solution is present I think that's all being discussed Can I do we know is it just Newport or is it all three I'm not I'm not in the meeting so I don't know the details Grace
Graves Graves not Graves Graves I don't I don't know who's who's in the meetings and I don't know what's specifically being discussed And it's no longer really Newport It's their new owners for multi-billion dollar worldwide company
My suggestion is you know just just uh grant the continuence this evening I wouldn't do any much you know much more talking but we are okay Uh I make a motion to grant the continuence for um the ledge road ledge
road until June 5th 2025 I'll second with with a location to be determined with new location to be determined to accommodate the anticipated um attendance Seconded by Peter
Uh we we're not we're not taking comment at this time We do not actually have an open meeting All in favor I They requested a continuence so we cannot take any testimony That's a great suggestion to that region Yes sir No I
think it's it's worth paying attention to and uh the senior center Y decision Could I please just see the show of hands again so I know who voted what So five and to continue Is that an
a no or abstain Okay Just want to make sure I understood the vote catching that So 1 2 3 4 5 to one Five to one Okay Thank you Charlie I just want to make sure the continuation Yep Can I vote on the continuation Because you had indicated I couldn't
