Bartenstein, representing himself and Donna Bosco requesting to further postpone the scheduled hearing regarding a Zoning Enforcement Appeal until August 14, 2014. A Board member asked if the abutters had been informed of the postponement. Atty. Bartenstein spoke to say that he had notified neighbors that had been interested in this petition of the postponement. A Board member asked what the status of the application was. Attorney Bartenstein told the Board there has been discussions between the Zoning Administrator, the Tree Committee and the DPW regarding the planting of trees along the bike path that he had not been a part of. Attorney John Farrington spoke on behalf of Lexington Toyota; he doesn’t see an issue with this; he doesn’t see a reason for the postponement. Mr. Gray has been a participant in meetings with the Tree Committee and feels there no issue for this Board to be considering at this time. It has been a well addressed matter. Lexington Toyota would like to come before the Board with a new parking plan but cannot come back until this matter is resolved. On a motion by Jeanne K. Krieger and seconded by David G. Williams, the Board voted 5-0 to further postpone the hearing until August 14, 2014. Submitted by: Dianne Cornaro, Administrative Clerk
