E Selectmen's Meeting RESOLUTION - RICHARD M. PERRY Upon motion duly made and seconded, it was voted to approve a Resolution to acknowledge the appre.ciation of the Board for the excellent service to the Town of Richard M. Perry, former Town Comptroller, LUMBERYARD REALTY TRUST - CAMELLIA PLACE �wrryr�..�.n.�� ^i irn r �nr �rr�ri. n��rrw... r.. ��ni�� nin -3_ June 17, 1988 Mr. Hutchinson reported on administrative and engineering positions on the proposal of Lumberyard Realty Trust for access from its property to Camellia Pl and exiting onto Bedford Street with suggested adjustment to the traffic signal cycle. The Manager expressed doubt that the adjustment to the light cycle would provide a solution and asked that the proponent, Alfred Busa, address that issue. He felt that exiting from Camellia Place was a rational solution, but pointed out that parking spaces and training area for the Fire Dept. would be lost. He saw need for time to work out these aspects of the proposal. Mr. Tonasruck, Director of Public Works /Engineering, noted that the Fire Dept. has had problems with congestion regarding safe exiting and ,.,.. manuever i ng of fire vehicles which the impact of the new development would compound. Mr. McSweeney suggested widening of Camellia Place to ease exiting. Joyce Miller, Chairman of the Conservation Commission, said she had not seen a topographic plan of the proposed easement location, but felt that her Commission would have trouble approving road construction over the brook located there, which would have the potential for adverse effect. Mr. Busa responded, that he was confident that the requirements of the Wetland By --Law could be satisfied. He added that the Trust is willing to cooperate, as evidenced by the traffic study submitted as requested, and that he will work with the Conservation Commission regarding its concerns. He stated that financially, the best time for addressing the entrance /exit issue was during the planning process for construct of his facility, but if that is not possible, he would have to live with the Bedford Street exit. Mr. Eddison recommended that the Conservation Commission confer with Mr. Busa and would give some indication as to approval or suggest some acceptable alternative. Mr. Marshall said he would consider the option of waiting to decide on a solution until both the Busa and Custance developments are in operation and their impacts. known. Mrs. Smith saw a need for attention to the area as a whole regarding traffic and environmental issues. Upon motion duly made and seconded, it was voted to authorize the Town Manager to work with Mr! Busa and the Conservation Commission, and the Planning} Board, to explore what can be done to move toward a solution.
