Minutes of October 13, 2009
Motion to grant the variances. The variances are substantial but
there really is no other way you can do this. It is not a deterrent to
nearby properties since one parcel belongs to the town and another
is owned by the applicant. It is self-created and the parcel is not
unique to the neighborhood.

We started this variance back in the summertime. This is for my tenant,
Quick Cash. He put the sign up prematurely so I had him cover it up.
I went out there today and you should remove the signs in the lawn for
Lumber Liquidators. The rest of the site has been cleaned up.
Do we give the variance to the owner or the tenant?
Usually the tenant applies for the sign but there was an over abundance
of signs on this building.
It could go to either one.
We will set your public hearing for October 27,2009.
Thank you.
Motion to adjourn.
Second the motion
All present voted aye.
