She distributed the initial results. Mr. Eric Michelson was there to report on owners' issues. He said that there might be some support for the change in parking requirements if certain trade -offs occurred. He said merchants would like to limit certain uses in the center such as realtors and banks as well as see some expanded long -term permit parking. He suggested that some spaces in the Town Office Building lot could be designated for use by the post office workers and parking for permit holders on residential streets could be created. Board members discussed the issue of employee parking. Mr. Kastorf said that the warrant article would go forward as proposed but that the community needs to continue the discussion, even after Town Meeting. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ** PLANNING DIRECTOR'S REPORT * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ** Battle Green Inn Rezoning - Ms. McCall - Taylor reported on her meeting with the Battle Green Inn development team saying that they were still working on the proposal.
