Matt Higgins asked about new EDA area and talked about the alternate area.  Dawn Tuomala said it should be the area indicated on the site plan but before the testing was completed she didn’t want to lock the applicant into that area.

Abutter Jane Glines commented the company has done a good job keeping the trailers off the other lot but still has a concern about trailers on this side.  Jane said they took the excess trailers and moved them to the other side of the lot and it is not on the site plan.  They are still parking on the grass and the wet area.

VOTE Dick Rockwood made a motion to approve the plan and Mark Whitehill seconded the motion.  Betsy Castro abstained and the plan is approved.

David Glines made a comment as an abutter.  He that the trailer doors be closed on units that are not in use to make it look neater.  Also wants F-143 to be paved and number parking spots painted.   Mark Whitehill thinks the dust issue should be allowed to go a little bit longer until the summer month and if it does not work then it will have to be paved.
David Glines is back on the Board
 

Other Business
Carol Handy is before the Board with a slight change in the number of children allowed for a day care she operates on Isaac Frye Highway.  She will be before the ZBA soon.
