All They Couldn't Do Was Elect A Chair


In an issue that has been pressing for the better part of a year, the Planning and Zoning Commission once again failed to elect a chair. Two Democrats, Deborah Kleckowski (4 votes) and acting chair Richard Pelletier (3 votes) were not elected, again.

Other then that continuing embarrassment, the Board moved briskly through business, tabling a public hearing on a 15 lot subdivision at Flynn Lane due to improper signage announcing the public hearing.

The board approved a change in language to allow a plan by Lori Montazella to open a Bed and Breakfast in her home which is located on Westfield Street and is in an R-15 zone. Montazella will have to appear before the Board with specific plans before she opens the B$B.

The board also approved a three lot subdivision at 42 Middlefield Street. In the approval they recomended planting of buffer trees, required sidewalks, and a turnaround driveway (hammerhead).

The board also extended approval of a industrial park development on land owned by Ted Bysiewicz. They approved a name change for a used car dealer on Johnson Street, and forwarded public hearings for two other subdivisions.

In other business the board agreed to make time in future meetings to consider changes in regulations for Bed and Breakfasts, sidewalks, and several other changes sidelined at other meetings but compiled by board member Catherine Johnson.
