mo <br />' ..&WRO <br />s_ <br />March 1, 1910. <br />A meeting of the Board of Appeals was held in the Sel- <br />ectmen's Room, Town Office Building, at 8:00 P. M. Chairman <br />Maddison, Associate Member Winthrop H. Bowker, and Messrs. <br />Kimball and Locke were present. The Secretary was also <br />present. In the absence of Mr. Robbins, Mr. Kimball acted <br />as Clerk. <br />At 5:00 P. M. hearing was declared open upon the appli- <br />cation of Peter J. and Anna McDonagh for permission to <br />construct and maintain a lubritorium and office to be used <br />in conjunction with the sale of petroleum products. <br />The notice of the hearing was read by Clerk pro -tem <br />Kimball. <br />Mr. McDonagh, Mr. Roche and the engineer of the Shell <br />Oil Company, and four neighbors appeared at the hearing. <br />Mr. McDonagh stated that he wanted to make a slight <br />change in the location of the building, but there will be <br />no alterations.. He said he wanted to bring the building <br />forward about ten feet from the former location. <br />Mr. Roche said that they wanted to move the building <br />forward ten feet so that it would be easily accessible and <br />easily seen. He thought that the former permit called for <br />the building to be erected at the present line of locatioh. <br />This proposed location will bring it thirty -sig feet back <br />from the inside of the sidewalk to the front of the build- <br />ing on the Mass. Ave. end. The pumps would also be moved <br />forward to within twenty -feet of the inside sidewalk line. <br />The building is to be identical with that for which the <br />permit was granted previously. Mr. Roche said that the - <br />new building would enhance the looks of the property, and <br />would add to the looks of the neighborhood. He said there <br />would be no upstairs to the building. <br />The Chairman said that there were stairs on the outside <br />of the building on the plan previously submitted. <br />McDonagh said that that staircase went down from the <br />loading platform. <br />The Chairman asked the capacity of the tanks, and <br />McDonagh said there were two ten thousand gallon tanks for <br />fuel oil, and besides those, he has the tanks for the storage <br />of gasoline, also. <br />Mr. Roche said that all poles, etc., were on the twenty - <br />foot line. <br />The Chairman asked if this new location would cut off <br />e <br />n <br />
