It was the consensus of the Board to add an asterisk after the "SSP" in the "Business B" <br />column. Next to the corresponding asterisk would be written "applicable to the downtown <br />portion only" or words to that effect. <br />CR said this might cause problems. The amendment to the Zoning Map did not make it <br />onto the Town Meeting's warrant so the Article is not internally consistent with the Board's <br />recommendation. This could cause problems with the Attorney General. You can reduce <br />the scope of what you've recommended but you can't expand it. CR said the Town Counsel <br />agrees with him that there should be a Zoning Map Change. <br />RH moved to recommend Article 20 to Town Meeting as submitted with the following <br />amendments: <br />1. Under 4.2.2 "Table of Uses" add a asterisk after "SPP" and write "applicable to <br />Downtown portion only". <br />2. Under 4.6.3 "Permitted Uses" add etc" after the "Seven Units" listings in both <br />F.A.R. tables. <br />3. Add 4.6.11 "Zoning Map Amendment" which would designate a "Mixed-Use <br />Overlay District" on the entire Downtown Business-B Zoning District as amended <br />by the 2005 subsequent Town Meeting. <br />It was the consensus of the Board that the third amendment would make the Article <br />internally consistent with the Board's recommendation. JB suggested asking the Town <br />Counsel for her opinion on the amendment. The Board agreed and added that the moderator <br />should see it ahead of time as well. <br />The Board asked CR how these amendments would be executed. CR said: first, the Board <br />should recommend Article 20, with tonight's amendments, to Town Meeting and the Board <br />of Selectmen. The Board of Selectmen will then snake a motion to amend the Article. <br />RH moved to amend his motion to recommend it to the Board of Selectmen also. <br />JB seconded. <br />Voted Approved: 4:0:0. <br />JS thanked RH for drafting the letter sent to the Board of Selectmen clarifying the CPDC's <br />reasons for the size of the residential units. RH suggested that the memo should be brought <br />to Town Meeting. <br />Public Hearing (continued): Definitive Subdivision <br />Richard Merrill Trustees, Dwight Road at 175 Franklin Street <br />(Action Date: November 30, 2005) <br />JS opened the Public Hearing. <br />applicant. <br />Page 2 of 7 <br />
