BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING '
November 20, 1939.
At 8;00 P.M. joint hearing before the Board of Selectmen
and the Board of Appeals upon the application of M.J. Aruda of
329 Mass. Avenue for permission to increase the capacity of
underground tanks for the storage of fuel oil from 5,000 to
301,000 gallons, was declared open.
Messrs. Glynn and Ferguson and Associate Members Bowker
and Locke of the Board of Appeals were present. The notice of
the hearing before the Board of Appeals.was read by Clerk Pro -
tem Bowker and the notice of the hearing before the Board of
Selectmen was read by Chairman Giroux. About fourteen owners
of property in the neighborhood were present at the hearing and
the Building Inspector was also present. Mr. Aruda, the
petitioner, was not present so there were no persons present
in favor of granting the petition.
Mr. J.J. Milfin said that he was an attorney and rep-
resented Mr. Howard S. Clow who owns the property at 373 Mass.
Avenue. Mr. Clow requested Mr. Milfin to voice his objection
because he thought the value of his property would be deprec-
iated. Mr. Milfin said that the tax rate in Lexington had in- '
creased $3.00 since 1936 while property values had decreased.
Mr. Milfin said the people in the neighborhood have a problem
now on account of the number of gasoline stations and they will
have an increased problem on account of a fuel oil station.
He thought an increase in capacity to 30,000 gallons would
effect a change in the insurance rates. He requested that the
petition be denied.
Mr. Thomas P. Killion said he owned some land across the
street from Aruda's station and he felt that the granting of
this petition would tend to depreciate the value of his lots.
He thought it was foolish to even consider putting in tanks of
such a large capacity right on Mass. Avenue.
Mr. Theodore Sheffr6 s. of 14 Lisbeth Street said he ob-
jected to the granting of the petition because he felt it would
tend to increase the insurance rates and decrease the value of
his property.
Mr. Herbert Waddleton of 48 Brandon Street said he thought
there were plenty of gas and oil stations there now. There is
a vacant lot in front bf'the East Lexington railroad station,
and if this is granted, he saw no reason why someone else would
not want to put in fuel oil tanks there. He said he expected
to build in the rear of his present lot some day and felt that
the value of that lot would be depreciated if this petition was
granted.
Mr. George F. Mellick of 282 Mass. Avenue felt that this '
would depreciate the value of his property. He also thought
that fuel trucks would be coming in there loading with oil all
hours of the night and would create a traffic hazzard.
The Building Inspector said that Aruda now only had a
small tank which would contain about 250 gallons.
67
Mr. Aruda then appeared at the hearing. He said that if
he was allowed to put.the tanks in, there would be no trucks
loading after six P.M. He said that the tanks would be in the
rear, the rack would be of cement and he did not believe the
business would hurt anyone. Mr. Glynn asked why he felt he
would need tanks of 30,000 gallon capacity and Mr. Aruda said
he would be satisfied with 20,000 gallons, but he thought that
when the market was low, he might like to get an additional
109000 gallons. He said that he probably would get 2,000 to
51,000 gallon truck loads at a time and it was not his present
plan to take from tank cars. He assured the Board that there
would be no trucking after six P.M. He presented plans show-
ing the proposed location of the tanks. Mr. Glynn said that
the application requested permission to increase from 5,000 to
303,000 gallons. He asked if this meant an increase of 5,000 to
30,000 or 35,000 gallons, and Mr. Aruda said that it meant an
increase from 5,000 to 3 000 gallons.
Mr. Emile J. Vadeboncoeur of 35 Brandon Street asked if
there was a limit to the capacity of underground tanks in the
neighborhood and Mr. Glynn said that there was not as far as
he knew. Mr. Vadeboncoeur said that he moved here because he
thought it would be a good town to live 1n, but he was beginning
to change his mind. He said that he was against having any
increase in oil or gasoline business in that section. He said
there was bound to be an increase in trucking. Fottler Avenue
'
is a narrow street and it would be the only means of entrance.
He said that regardless of the promises not to truck after six
P.M. he was very sure that occasions would arise when trucks
would be coming in after that hour. He did not believe that the
granting of the permit would be an asset to the section.
Mr. Aruda said that there would be no trucking in Fottler
Avenue as the trucks would enter and leave on his own property.
Mrs. Vadeboncoeur said that recently they had renovated
their house which added to the value of their property and she
thought this would depreciate its value and be a detriment to
the neighborhood.
Mr. Milfin questioned that the petition was in order as
it called for an increase in capacity of gasoline tanks and not
fuel oil tanks. He said the premises were not in good condition
now and probably would not be if this was granted.
Mr. Kilion said that no one was going to benefit by this
but Mr. Aruda.
Miss Helen Burke of 314 Mass. Avenue said she lived on
the opposite side of the street. She thought the noise of the
trucks would be bothersome and if stations were increased all
the time, it would merely be a slum section. She said it was
not a slum section when she came there but every year it has
gone down a little more. Everybody on her side of the street
keeps his property in good condition, but the people on the
other side of the street do not.
'
A Mr. James Scanlon appeared and said that he was the
owner of the property. fie said that Aruda has been in the oil
business for a number of years and it was quite necessary for
him to make a living there from the oil business. He said that
Aruda had always run a clean, respectable place and it is getting
68:
to a point where a man who sells gasoline only cannot make a
'
living. He said Aruda asked his advice and he said he would be
glad to assist him. Mr. Scanlon said he was in the oil business
himself. He said it was planned to sink the tanks underground
and load the trucks from the tanks. A two inch pipe would rise
from the ground and there would be a small platform. Mr. Scan-
lon said they would be defeating their own interests if they had
anything unbecoming in that location. He said that there are
always trucks and cars coming into a gasoline station. He said
that if Aruda loaded his trucks twice a day and got rid of the
contents and loaded a couple of other dealers' trucks, he would
be very fortunate. He said that Mr. Aruda was honest and had
conducted his business in a fairly clean manner and he felt that
the petition should be granted. As far as danger was concerned,
he could not see it, as people are allowed to store oil within
six inches of their kitchen fires and people are allowed to
store oil in tanks in their cellars. Mr. Milfin asked what
Mr. Scanlon's interest in this petition was and he said that he
was a business associate of Mr. ArudAls, Mr. Milfin then said
that Mr. Scanlon would benefit from the business as well as'Aruda.
Mr. Harold W. Schiorring of 280 Mass. Avenue said that he
was sure that after this was granted they would have trouble
with it. 'He said there was a fuel oil station right beside
Aruda's station and all the neighbors could get their oil there
If they wished to. He said there had been a lot of trucking
and fussing at Aruda's yard day and night. The other man is
'
loading his trucks at night and Aruda might do the same.
Mrs. Vadeboncoeur said she wished to disagree with Mr.
Scanlon's statement and sgid that Mrt.Aruda's property was very
untidy. She also said that there was a great deal of noise
from the station.
Mr. Rowse asked Mr. Scanlon what the necessity for
30,000 gallons was and he replied that he did not believe they
would really need that much but thought possibly if the Board
would not allow 30,000 it might allow 200000.
Db?. Waddleton said that he thought trucks loading and
going into the station before six o'clock would bea hazard
to the youngsters. He said there was not much money in the oil
busiLness and one man is making a week's pay right there so he
did not think the business should be divided. Mr. Sheffres
asked if 1' Aruda was living in Lexington and paying poll
and reg � Res in Lexington.
The following persons wished to be recorded in opposition:
Mrs. Mellick; Mrs. Dunn of 282 Mass. Ave: Mrs. Schiorring: Miss
Emily Burke and Mrs. Sheffres.
The hearing was declared closed at 8:52 P.M.
The Board of Appeals then adjourned to the Assessors?
Office and hearing was declared open on the application of
R. Lockwood, Willism.A. and Philip Tower for permission to '
maintain three signs, 4' x 81, on their property located on
Follen Road, Lexington, advertising the land upon which they
are located.
M
'
Clerk Pro -tem Bowker read the notice of the hearing.
Mr. Vain. S. Caouette wai present and stated that he was
agent for the Towers in connection with the Follen'Road develop-
ment.
Mr. Caouette said that there was an application made
previously for the maintenance of three 41 x 81signs in that
.development and there was a permit granted which he understood
called for a set -back of the signs of 200 feet from existing
roads. He said that this was practically impossible to do. He
said that the permit had expired and he was now requesting
permission for three 41 x 81 signs. He presented a sketch showing
the signs that were there now. Mr. Caouette said that through
error, he had placed one of the signs on land which is grassed
over but which is part of the town land. The present signs are
31 x 51 and he said he did not intend at the present time to change
them to larger ones. He said he had two signs, one at each
entrance to Follen Road and he said that Marrett Road, at Follen
Road, was the only place the signs really could be placed to let
people know that the land was for sale. He said that if they
were compelled to set the signs way back from the road, they would
be worthless to them. He said that they had tried to set the
signs not too close to Marrett Road to be a menace yet near
enough so they could be visible from the road.
Mr. Longbottom said that the signs were on town land at
the present time on Follen Road. Follen Road is a 60 feet layout
'
but not surfaced now for about 16 feet, and there is a grassed
area which slopes down on either side of the road. If he set
the signs back the twenty feet required, they would be dor ir.r'
the hollow and could not be see/. Mr. Caouette said that there
had never been any objection to the signs in their present
location from the people living in the vicinity. He said he
wanted the permit for the 41 x 81 signs in case they ever wished
to change them to that size although they did not have plans to
do so now. Ife said that the other permit ran for three years
and therefor he felt that at some time they might want to put
in a sign of a more permanent nature. The present signs are not
expensive ones put he thought they made a nice entrance to the
development. The third sign is located on Locust Ave. Mr.
Caouette said he had marked on the sketch an alternate location
for this sign and had done this so they would have a place to
put it in case the lot on which it is now located is sold.
Mr. Locke asked how long the signs had been there and
Mr. Caouette said they had been there since the early part of
May. Mr. Ferguson asked if they were still there, and Mr.
Caouette said that they were. In reply to a question from Mr.
Glynn, Mr: Caouette said that Piercers house sets back from
Marrett Road about 70 feet. His land.adjoins the property on
which Mr. Caouette wished to place one sign, and Mr. Ferguson
asked if he thought Mr. Pierce would object if the sign were
moved nearer his house and changed to a 41 x8r sign, and Mr.
'
Caouette said he thought there would be no objection. He said
that the signs were neat and that any signs they put there would
be neat. He hoped that the Board would grant the petition.
The 'nearing was declared closed.
70
The records of the October 6th meeting were declared
approved.
The Board considered the application of R. Lockwood,
William A. and Philip Tower for permission to maintain three
signs 41 x 81 on their property on Follen Road, and thought
that the number of signs asked for was reasonable, but thought
that the location desired within 25 feet of Marrett Road on
the easterly side of Follen Road might be objectionable to the
residents of the abutting property and that this sign should
therefor be moved back a distance not nearer than 100 feet to
the street line of Marrett Road.
Upon motion of Mr. Locke, seconded by Mr. Ferguson, it
was voted to grant the petition in the following form, Mr.
Maddison wishing to be recorded in favor of granting the
petition.

ARTHUR N. MADDISON
Chairman, Board of Appeals.
The Board considered the petition of M. J. Aruda for
permission to increase the capacity of underground tanks to
30,000 gallons at 329 Mass. Avenue, Lexington and were un-
animous in disapproving the permit. They were considerably
influenced in this decision by the large number of residents
in the neighborhood who appeared in opposition and the fact
that none appeared in favor except those financially interested
in the project.
Upon motion of Mr. Ferguson, seconded by Mr. Locke, it
was voted to deny the petition in the following form, Mr.
Maddison wishing to be recorded in opposition also:
The Board of Appeals-, acting under General Laws,
Chapter 40, Section 27, 'raving received a written petition
addressed to it by M. T. Aruda a copy of which is hereto annexed
held a public hearin:` thereon of which notice was mailed to the
74
r
petitioner and to the owners of all property deemed by the
Board to be affected thereby as they appear on the most re-
cent local tax list, and also advertised in the Lexington
Minute -Man, a newspaper published in Lexington, which hearing
was held in the Selectmen's Room, in the Town O'fice Building
on November 20, 1939. '
Two Associate and two members of the Board of Appeals
were present at the hearing. A certificate of notice is
hereto annexed. At this hearing evidence was offered on
behalf of the petitioner tending to show:
That he wished to install underground in the rear of his pres-
ent lubritorium and office, three 10,000 gallon tanks to be
used for the storage of fuel oil and range oil with a loading
platform directly adjoining the rear of his present buildings.
Access to these tanks and the loading platform would be by a
driveway entering upon Mass. Avenue running parallel to Fottler
Ave. around the rear of the existing buildings and out to exit'
on Mass. Ave. That he could get along with storage for only
20,000 gallons of oil; that there would be no trucking of oil
after six o'clock P.M.; that the premises would be kept in a
neat and clean condition.
Evidence was offered on behalf of citizens opposing the
Granting of the said petition tending to show that their homes ,
and residences in the vicinity v✓ould be depreciated by the addi-
tion of fuel tanks; that the general locality would be less de-
sirable for residence purposes and that it was already overcrowd-
ed with oil and asoline filling stations; that there exists
sufficient capacity for the storage of oil to take care of
all present requirements.
At the close of the hearing the Board in private session
November 20, 1939, gave consideration to the subject of the
petition and voted unanimously in favor of the following
findings:
1. That in its judgment the public convenience and
welfar e will not be substantially served by the making of
the exception requested.
2. That the exception requested will tend to impair the
status of the neighborhood.
3. That the exception requested will not be in harmony
with the general purposes and intent of the regulations in the
Lexington Zoning By-law.
4. That the enforcement of the Lexington Zoning By-law
as to the locus in question would not involve practical '
difficulty and unnecessary hardship and the relief requested
may not be granted without substantial detriment to the
public good and without substantially derogating from the
intent and purpose of such Lexington Zoning By-law.

1 Pursuant to the said findings, the Board hereby denies
the said petition of 1M. J. Aruda for permission to increase
the capacity of underground storage for fuel oil at 329 Mass.

The Board hereby makes a detailed record of all its
proceedings relative to such petition and hereby sets forth
