PMSP/F89-28-97 PHASE II and III Bear Rock - Request for waiver
from complying with installation of treescape
Mrs. White summarized indicating that Mr. Omland has issued a
report with three solutions: to grant
waiver, to not grant waiver and require all trees installed or have the developer
install those trees that are missing from developed lots where there are no
wooded areas or to plant trees in areas where there are dead or dying trees
along the ROW’s. Motion made by: John
Visco, seconded by Russ Lipari not to grant waiver and to ask developer to
plant trees in areas requested by board engineer.
·
Master Plan Re-examination Hearing – scheduled for April 16th
Planning Board members confirmed to proceed with the adoption of
this element at their next meeting.
Temporary Signs – new policy
Mr. Lipari summarized the subcommittee meeting held this morning
with the chamber noting that for a year the land use office will allow release
of temporary sign permits/banners for a period not to exceed 90 days in one
calendar year, that a permit process was established, and although the policy
will require fees, for this year only, those fees would be exempt. He reviewed how it would work, and indicated
that it is an attempt to try and help our local businesses during these
difficult economic times. The Board
agreed it would be helpful. Mr. Lewis
asked if this allowed off-premise signs.
Mrs. White indicated only warehouses are allowed off premise signs and
this is a separate permit process. It is
not permitted under this policy, but she would add wording to make sure it was
clear it is not permitted under this policy.
Mrs. White indicated that the signs would have to be professional and
not hand-painted or made in such a way it would be blight to the corridors in
the community. Mr. Lipari noted that
this would be a year only at which time we would look at this issue again to
see it’s affect on the community and local businesses.
