144 <br />BOARD OF APPEALS T=TING <br />AUGUST 201, 1935. <br />Joint hearing of the Board of Appeals and the Board <br />of Selectmen was declared open at 8:00 P.M. on the app- <br />lication of Charles E. Bradley, Jr. for permission to <br />erect and maintain a gasoline filling station at the corner <br />of Marrett Road and Waltham Street. Messrs. Maddison, <br />Glynn, Ferguson, Robbins, and Kimball were present. <br />The Secretary was also present. <br />The Chairman of the Selectmen opened the hearing and <br />the Clerk of the Board of Appeals read the notice of the <br />hearing; of the Board of Appeals. <br />Mr. Charles E. Bradley, Jr., applicant for the permit <br />stated that he had the property on this corner under lease <br />with option to buy. He has a considerable investment <br />in the property at the present time and he would like <br />the gasoline station in order to increase the revenue. <br />He stated that the location was in the business zone and <br />he -believed that an additional station would not hurt <br />anyone. The station would be situated on the easterly <br />side of the lot on the southerly side of Marrett Road <br />facing on Waltham Street on the lot abutting the roadside <br />stand. The Station would be a fireproof building, <br />32' x 241, built of cement block and probably would have <br />a stucco finish. There vould be an enclosed lubricatorium <br />and three gasoline pumps. <br />The Chairman of the Board of Appeals asked how far <br />back from the street line the pumps would be, and he was <br />advised that they would be fifty feet back from the street, <br />probably more. He then asked if there were any plans of <br />the proposed station and he was advised that there were <br />three sets of plans available but Mr. Bradley had neglected <br />to bring them with him. <br />Mr. George E. Swanson stated that he lived about 300 <br />feet from the proposed building and he had talked with his <br />nei�-hbors, none of whom objected and he saw no objection <br />whatsoever to having a station at this corner and he felt <br />that an additional station, and probably a fourth station, <br />was needed. <br />Mr. Clyde Steeves stated that there were no gasoline <br />stations on the right hand side of Route 128 from the <br />71oburn line to this point. He knew the two young men who <br />were to run the station and he thought that they would run <br />it very efficiently. Mr. Steeves lives on Hill Top Avenue <br />and he had canvassed his street, Kendall Road, and Farm <br />Crest Avenue, and there was nobody in his neighborhood who <br />objected to the granting of the permit. <br />1 <br />I. <br />
