It was agreed the Board would make no recommendation on the following case: 31 Chase Avenue, Elaine Sullivan: SP, non -complying dwelling: The Board would comment that it was pleased to see a certified plot plan had been submitted. 22 Muzzey Street, Daniel Yuill: SP, conversion of one -family dwelling: The proposed conversion would conform to the Planning Board's proposed amendment to this section (Article 12) except that the lot area is only 12,500 square feet rather than 15,500. The Board thought this application may be a worthwhile exception to that standard because of its location abutting the boundary to the CB district. On the motion of Mrs. Flemings, seconded by Mr. Cripps, it was voted unanimously to recommend in favor of granting the special permit. 197 Massachusetts Avenue, Richard Vasapoli: SP, karate school: On the motion of Mr. Cripps, seconded by Mrs. Flemings, it was voted unanimously to make no recom- mendation on this application. 2 Wallis Court, Wallis Court Associates: Variances, parking requirements: The Board reviewed a draft of a recommendation and made a number of editorial changes. On the motion of Mr. Sorensen, seconded by Mrs. Uhrig, it was voted unanimously to oppose the granting of the variances and to approve the report as corrected. ARTICLES FOR 1985 TOWN MEETING 47.
