Old Business
8 Friendship Street – Tim Voell came before the Board in response to a letter from Code Enforcement Officer Steve Cole dated April 28, 2014 regarding the parking for 8 Friendship Street. The letter stated Mr. Voell had failed to provide the Board with a legal description of the “piece of property across the street that would be used for parking”. After reviewing the photo and description of the property Mr. Voell provided to the Board, Chair Billeci stated that he felt there is plenty of parking for a Bed and Breakfast but not for events. A motion was made by John Hallstein and seconded by Ginger Grab that the parking meets the requirements for a Bed and Breakfast. All in favor. Motion carried.
Donna Matthews made a motion that since the parking requirement has been provided, Mr. Voell has met the conditions set forth by the Planning Board on June 20, 2011 for a special permit. Ginger Grab seconded. All in favor. Motion carried.
