November 8, 1946
A meeting of the Board of Appeals was held
in the Selectmen's Room, Town Office Building, on
Friday evening, November 8, 1946. Chairman Bowker,
Mr. Locke, Mr.. Redman, Mr. Brown and Associate
Member Ballard were present at the hearing. The
Clerk was also present.
At 7,45 P.M., Mr, Richard P. Cassidy entered the
meeting. Public -hearing of his petition was held on
November 13, 1946, and adjourned until this evenirg.
Mr. Cassidy stated that he was not able. to buy
any land from Mr. Crown. Though the land is absolutely
wofthless, Mr. Crown refuses to sell any part of it.
Mr. Cassidy left the Selectmen's Room at 7;50 P.M.
At 8;00 P.M., hearing was declared open upon the
petition of William A. Barnes for permission to construct
a store and locker building at the corner of Lincoln
' Street and School Street on property owned by George
W. and Helen B. Saran.
Notice of the hearing was read by Mr. Brown.
22 persons attended the hearing.
Mr. Barnes stated that he wished to construct
a food store and locker building at the corner of 5
Forks. The land is zoned for business with a 200 feet
frontage. The building will be 50 x 50 and will be used
primarily for freezer and locker storage - with approx-
imately 450 lockers. The lockers will rent at the current
retail rates as controlled by the market. They are
primarily for the use of patrons, but they will also
have bulk storage for restaurants, hotels and hospitals.
There will be an aging room for beef and pork which takes
from 4B to 86 hours. Previous to going to the aging room,
the meat is placed in a chill room for a period of 24
to 36 house. They"will'handle whole'carcasses, and the
meat will stay there until it is ready to be sold.
There will be a butcher at the store to out up the meat,
and there will be wrapping facilities.
The store area will be 20 x 30. Mr. Barnes intends
to purchase about 30,000 square feet of land. The build-
ing will be erected according to the Building Inspector's
regulations. There will be room for a parking area.

The building will be of concrete blocks,
stuccoed over, with a flat roof pitched to center.
It will be one story -with a basement under the front
part of the building. The entrance will be on the
corner. There will be a gas furnace for heating.
A chimney approximately ten feet wide will take care
of air conditioning, and ventilhtion.
The store hours will be.about 8;30 to 6;00 P.M.
Mr. Barnes intends to hire four employees; two
butchers, a cashier and a man for general work.
It will be primarily a butcher shop. Plans of the
building were presented to the Board of Appeals.
George Cooper, the owner of Lot #7, asked if
there would be any odor from the meat, and Mr. Barnes
stated that there would be no more odor than from a
regular meat market. The largest amount of pro-
cessing would be eleven cattle at once. There would
not be much processing of fish.
Mr. Lyon stated that he had long wished to be
able to hire locker space to store food, but that '
there had been no such place in Lexington. He would
like to see a building such as this in the town as it
iq a growing business..
Walter Burke, representing Mr. Lowery and Mr.
and Mrs. McNamara, abutting owners, voiced objection
to this petition as a permit has already been granted
to Mr. Lowery on the Apposite corner. In view of the
fact that one has already been granted, he does not
feel that another one should be given. There may not
be a great demand for this type of business for some
years to come. Mr. Burke has looked over this site and
talked with several people about it, and finds there
may be a very serious question of drainage there.
The natural condition of the land is one that might be
swampy. This is low land and will require a lot of
fill. School Street is a two -car road and there may be
a serious traffic question if the Board permits this
type of establishment due to the fact that there will
be a great many trucks bringing in heavy meat. There
is a bus stop right in that location as well as a
shelter. There are five corners with no stop sign.
Mr. Lowery's location is far better as he has an
easy way of cutting in and out..
0
' Mr. Lowery is a successful man in this type
of business. He has places established in Arlington
Heights, Winchester and Newton Corner. Mr. Lowery is
working on his plant now, but because of shortages
of materials, he cannot go along too quickly. As soon
as materials are available, he will go right ahead with
his project. Mr. Lowery has his building - Mr. Barnes
will have to erect his. Mr. Lowery also has adequate
drainage into the Town sewer.
Randle Haws, 2-9 Lincoln Street, stated that insomuch
as Five Forks is zoned for business, two competing business -as
would more or less confine the facilities that could be
provided in that area.
Dorothy McCormick, 72 Eastern Avenue, Arlington, owns
a lot of land on Lincoln Street and feels that this build-
ing will detract from the value of her property.
Mr. Webb, 266 Lincoln Street, stated that when Mr.
Lowery was granted his petition he did not oppose, but he
does not feel that two businesses are necessary in that
location. He wished to go on record as being opposed.
' Mr. Johnson, 263 Lincoln Street, opposes the petition
because it is too near his line, and any machinery that is
being operated on off hours will be bothersome to him.
Also the odor from any refuse will blow his way.
Mr. Burke asked the petitioner what study he had made
of the drainage problem on his side of the street. Mr.
Barnes said there was no more of a drainage problem on
his land than there was on Mr. Loweryts. The petitioner
also stated that he intends to have a driveway - in and out -
the same as� filling station so far as approach is con-
cerned.
Mr. Haws asked about condensers. Mr. Barnes stated
they would be located inside and that the exhaust would
be vertical.
Eugane Sawyer asked if cattle would be slaughtered
on the premises and Mr. Barnes answered that it was not
legal in Lexington.
Mr. Burke asked the petitioner how much the building
would cost and Air. Barnes+ answer was $40,000.00.
Answering another question about refuse from Mr. Johnson,
the petitioner said that trucks would come out once or twice
' a week to buy the excess fats.
Hearing was declared closed at 8;55 P.M.
184 OC
At 9;00 P.M., hearing was declared open upon '
the petition of Ethel M. Koester for permission to main-
tain and operate a kindergarten on the premises located
at ll.Dee Road.
Notice of the hearing was read by Mr. Ballard.
Mrs. Koester and one other persoix were present at the
hearing.
Mrs. Koester stated that she would like to
operate A small kindergarten for not more than ten
children. She has a good sized sun -room for them,
and there are many children In the neighborhood
about the age for kindergarten. There is no private
kindergarten in that section.
Mrs. Koester was a teacher prior to her marriage
and has done substituting since then. Mr. Bowker asked
the petitioner the maximum number of children she
would handle, and Mrs. Koester said that fifteen
would be all that she could care for.
Mrs. Koester stated, in answer to another ques-
tion from Mr. Bowker, that the hours of the school '
would be 9 to 12. She now has five children. Mr.
Bowker asked about transportation and Mrs. Koester
stated that she did not intend to furnish it.
There will be no signs advertising the school.
The petitioner stated that she has a play -
yard at the rear of her house which she will fence
in with a gate. The,children will be outside about
three-quarters of an hour. Mr. Redman asked about
exits in case of fire. Mrs. Koester said that the
children would have to go through one room.
Mrs. Packard, 14 Gleason Road, spoke in favor
of granting the petition and asked if Mrs. Koester
planned to have any health inspection for the child-
ren. Mrs. Packard understands that the Visiting
Nurse Association will go to any play school Mrs.
Koester said that she had not thought of that as
she watches the children very closely herself. She
will, however, take Mrs. Packard's suggestion.
Hearing was declared closed at 9;30 P.M.
LJI
' At 9.12 P.M., hearing was declared open upon
the petition of Gail Smith for the alteration of
a building into a single family residence at 170
Wood Street.
Notice of the hearing was read by Mr. Brown.
The petitioner was the only person present at the
hearing.
Mr. Smith stated that he had sold his house
and garage. He has a building which has never been
occupied. It was constructed primarily for a hen
house and the top floor was to be used for a work
shop and office combination. He would like now to
put an apartment there.
Mr. Bowker asked Mr. Smit# if he was willing to
sub -divide his property and Mr. Smith answered yes.
The lot has already been surveyed. The first floor
of the building will be used for storage and a work
shop. The base is made of field stone, and the top
section will be wooden.
Hearing was declared ' closed at 9;30 P.M. The Board considered the application of Biagio
Cacci&la. Upon motion of Mr. Locke, seconded by Mr.
Brown, it was unanimously voted that the action taken
on Mr. Cacoiolat,s petition be rescinded in view of the
fact that this Board does not have any jurisdiction
over this case. It was unanimously voted that a
letter be forwarded to Mr. Lindstrom, Building Inspector,
advising him of the Board's decision. It was also
voged that Gail Smith's application be referred to the
Building Inspector and that Mr. Bowker be allowed to
sign the letter to Mr. Lindstrom for the Board of
Appeals.
The Board then considered the application of
Richard Cassidy. Upon motion of Mr. Locke, seconded
by Mr. Brown, it was unanimously voted to grant the
application in the following form;

Regarding the application of Mr. Barnes, the

granted for a similar establishment in the immediate
neighborhood that this petition would not be
benefibial due to the limited size of the business
zone in this location.
