BOA Meeting, December 10, 2009 3 Samuel Chen spoke in opposition of the petition. He addressed the Board telling them the existing garage was never designed to be used for cars. He had a concern about the drainage from the water run off and was disappointed with the site plan that it did not show where the drywell would be. He also questioned the property lot line that the applicant was using. He had tried to get together with the applicant and was troubled that it had not happened yet. No one in the audience spoke in favor of the petition. Mr. Chen had asked the Board if they changed the plans for the garage and stayed within the 7.5 ft side setbacks would they still have this issue. The Chairman told him if they were within the setbacks they would not need to come before the Board. After discussing the concerns of the Board it was agreed that the applicant would continue this hearing until February 11, 2010 in order to have time to meet with the neighbor to work out differences and to prepare updated plans for the placement of the proposed garage, driveway, landscape plans and drainage system. On a motion by Martha C. Wood and seconded by, the Board voted 5 -0 to continue this hearing until Thursday, February 11, 2010 at 7:30 pm. Submitted by: Dianne Cornaro, Administrative Clerk
