52 � �e We would have preferred, I think, to have suggested to you some other area and we have been negotiating for a number of years with adjoining ' property owners on one side of the church or the other, but to date we have not arrived at any final arrangements which would give us what we need, so that we have come to you. We would have to remove the loam, and therefore our request is that you permit us to do that. The hour is late, therefore I do not propose to say any more at this time, but will answer any questions that you may ask. Mr. Locke: You spoke of disposing of the loam. 64hat would you propose To do with it? Hanna: I think we would put it on the back of the lot here. I under- staTnc that there may be some request from the Town itself for that loam. We might just fill it in the back here where it is a drop off and later use it for ourselves. We would not sell it unless we could not find ways of keeping it so that it would not be unsightly. We could find other uses for it in improving the grounds. I would point out that the men of the Church want to see that the area is screened as best we can with the limited funds we have, and would have vines or trees to give us as much protection as possible. There is some screening already. Locke: Can you answer more definitely how much screening you would pro- pose to erect or plant? Hanna: We would try over here to put in a fairly solid line and plant ' some pines or spruces and in a few years would fill it up. If you told us to put a driveway coming out to Harrington Rd., it would be about this line as shown on the detailed drawing; and if you told us to put it on Bedford St. it would be this way. On the screening, there is a fence here and we would plant up almost to the fence. Locke: You say there is an existing fence between this property and Bed- 27=St. all the way through? Hanna: There is a line of trees in here, which in the summer time would Ti=e a complete screen. Locke: There is no fence between the Bedford St. properties? Hanna: Yes, there is a fence. Locke: There would be no passing? Hanna.:'No. There is a right-of-way with a gate, but it is not our thought to use it even if there is a right-of-way. Locke: I see Mr. Viano owns the right-of-way. Hanna: It may have been extinguished. ' Locke: Any questions from the Board?
