<br /> The Board reviewed and revised a draft decision prepared by the staff, dated January 8, 1996. The
<br /> developer, Winnetucket Realty Trust, would like to use section 7 4.5 of the Zoning By-Law, Frontage
<br /> Reduction, Lots in a Small Subdivision, but the project does not quite meet the frontage requirement.
<br /> There was some discussion about the merits of amending Section 7 4.5 so this project would qualify Mrs.
<br /> Davison suggested putting something to that effect in the decision. Mr. Canale said he preferred to say
<br /> that the Board has reserved a place in the warrant for an article on frontage and is presently in the
<br /> process of trying to decide what to bring to Town Meeting, if anything. The other members agreed.
<br /> On the motion of Mr. Merrill, seconded by Mr. Davies, the Board voted unanimously to approve the
<br /> decision, as amended.
