Protocol concerned with the Demolition Delay Bylaw: Roberta feels that the Building
Inspector should not give a demolition application to anyone but the owner of the
property. Virginia and Roberta put together a check list to help smooth out the
Demolition delay procedure.
214 West St.: Dave Barrett made a verbal request to Dave Barrett to put this property
on the town's inventory. If we do put the house on the town inventory, to take
advantage of less restrictive building codes. The house is on the 1854 map. Virginia
made a motion that we start the process of putting 214 West St. on the inventory. This
process takes 30 days or more. The commission must notify the owner and the
developer. A letter must go to the building inspector. Approved 4-1-0

Revival.

properties.
