So um we'll have the applicant applicant come up. Do you want a presentation on this or just to address the comment?
I'm sorry,
what was the question? Uh for item fifty-six, do we want to just address the comment on record or do you want a full presentation for Massachusetts?
I don't think it's full presentation. I just want to make sure we're writing or wrong. Absolutely. It was su we did it to them.
So that the boats and RVs are screened from looking at the fence.
Brilliant. We did the same thing in Hudson.
Yeah. Okay. Barbagel Height 6327 Grand Boulevard for the applicant. So we have a zoning on a specific piece of property. It is surrounded going C one to C two, it's surrounded by C2 property, and that C2 property is currently developed with an RV and boat storage. It was developed under your old code, maybe as your poster child of why you changed your code, but certainly they followed the rules and constructed what the code said. Your new code has much different provisions in
it. Fifty percent opaque fence or wall between six and eight feet in height, so Opaque means you don't see anything. Below six feet. And chain link fences shall be screened from view from public right-of-way with landscaping, so that's full screening if you use chain link fence. and razor wire and similar materials are not permitted.
Are you don't see those provisions next door because next door was under your old code. So we really we're here for the new property and if it becomes an expansion of the other one then it'll have the new code. But my client did authorize me to put on the record that they can add landscaping when they developed the subject property, they can add landscaping. to the outside of the fence. Nice. So
and so and there is an existing eight foot trail there that they put in? Because I didn't see I haven't seen it. Yeah, it's a the I must Yeah I was
missed it. Amy measured it and yes there is an eight foot sidewalk there now. Okay, thank you. I'm good.
Uh Ms. The property is gonna coincide with with the storage, correct?
It it's being zoned C2, but it's a good one. But it's the same, it's the same owner. So So I imagine I imagine it will be an expansion of their boat and RV storage.
So Part of it is vulnerable to live local.
It has
live local deed restriction. Oh, you don't want your
other
thing?
The other piece doesn't. So just pointing out that that would that could be a a prime site, if any live local developers out there I'd I dare them.
Bring it forward. But no, thank you. Just
Yeah, but we can only deal with the new one. I think the ownership groups might be slightly different from the two. So I can only be on here dealing with the subject one that's before you.
I would say that's a good idea. Barbara, I would like t to have a have a conversation with them about trying to make it uniform. Not chain link fence going across. Um I'm willing even to have a discussion about trying to even let them go apply for a tree mitigation grant to get the the funding to go put the landscape again, let them just pay for the fence.
I did think to myself self it's gonna be interesting 'cause the c the code's so different. It's gonna look different between these two parcels on the on their frontage, so that's a good solution. I will
make it look better for them and help them with the cost.
Idea. Thank you.
Thanks. Uh any other questions? Anyone else from the public would like to speak or in the audience would like to address this item?
All right, we have a motion. Approval.
Second.
All in favor say aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Item fifty-seven. Coming away.
