Brodhead and newly <br />appointed associate membeA Robert M. Gary,met with Norman Cohen, Town Counsel, <br />to discuss Board of Appeals' forms. The Board members decided to continue to <br />use the same forms, especially when petitions were of a routine nature. In <br />special or controversial cases, when it would be more advisable to type out <br />the decision instead of using the printed form, that would be done. <br />At 7:30 p.m. with an audience of interested townspeople present, as well <br />as, a reporter from the Lexington Minute -man Publications, public hearings <br />were held on the following petitions, notice having been mailed to the peti- <br />tioners, to the owners of all property deemed by the Board to be affected <br />thereby as they appear on the most recent local tax list, to town boards and <br />officials who will or might be affected by decisions made, and also advertised <br />in the Lexington Minute -man. <br />Kenneth B. Snell and Carol S. Snell - a variance from the Lexington zoning <br />by-law (section 27) in order to maintain the swimming pool on the premises at <br />4 Bennington Road, which swimming pool has a side line of approximately 13 ft. <br />instead of the required 15 ft. <br />Malcolm Kel.iikian - a variance from section 25.52 and other applicable provi- <br />sions of the zoning by-law, to park vehicles on a parcel of land consisting <br />of 22,700 sq. ft., more or less, and located to the rear of numbers 7 and 27 <br />Massachusetts Avenue and to the north of the Boston and Maine Railroad right <br />of way, as shown on plan submitted. The applicant has an option to purchase <br />this property. <br />Mel -Nor Realty Trust - special permit under section 30.4 of the zoning by-law <br />to change the use of the premises located in building at No. 1049 Massachu- <br />setts Avenue, Lexington, from a grocery store to an office building, to be <br />used to conduct the practice of optometry, including the dispensing of eye- <br />glasses and frames. <br />Harvey/R & D Electronics, Lessee, and John T. Spinelli, Owner - a site plan <br />review under section 13 for a finding and determination that the proposed <br />placement of the new one story warehouse addition at 44 Hartwell Avenue, <br />major topographical changes, provisions for waste disposal, surface and ground <br />water drainage, erosion control, additional parking area, loading areas, man- <br />uvering areas, driveways, and location of intersections of driveways and <br />streets will constitute a suitable development and will not result in sub- <br />stantial detriment to the neighborhood according to plans submitted. <br />Following the hearings the Board made the following decisions, all in <br />open meeting: <br />Snell - granted unanimously. <br />Keljikian - granted on a vote of 4 to 1, Mrs. Morey voting in opposition but <br />only because she felt it shoud be granted on a trial basis for 2 years, not <br />adinfinitum.
