8. Prior to the public hearing, the Board had requested written reports from the Department of Public
Works, Police and Fire Chiefs, Board of Health, Water Department, Zoning Agent/Building Inspector
and the Conservation Commission. The following reports concerning the application were received:
~ B.O.H.- BOH will review at their Jan. 3`d meeting.
D.P.W.- 10/24/01 -Profile plan should show all castings to grade particularly covers on leaching
systems
WATER - The Water Department made no comments to the proposal for the addition for the golf
equipment facility.
POLICE - no problems with the addition. It is in the middle of the golf course and doesn't impact
traffic etc.
FIRE - we have no problem Planning Board wise with the addition. Our comments are on the
construction for Fire and Hazmat Safety.
BOS- The administration supports this application, as an essential expansion of an existing
structure, intended to protect equipment, machinery and fertilizer materials from the
weather. It would have been helpful if a site plan were included, but the building is
accessible from the main vehicular entrance and parking area. There will be no increase in
traffic generated by this addition as the area is not open to the public, and hence there is no
expectation of a need for parking. No major clearing is required. There is no plumbing or
heating proposed for the building. Exterior lighting is proposed, and members may wish to
know specifics about fixtures, bulbs and controls, which were not provided with the
application.
9. Sitting on the Planning Board and present at the hearing were members Henchy, McMullen, Remy,
Taylor, Pierce, Tubman and Bugle. Chairman Henchy opened the hearing by reading the legal
advertisement and making the applicant and parties in interest aware of their rights to appeal as required
under Chapter 40A, Section 17. He stated that during the hearing any member of the Board or interested
party could direct questions through the Chairman to a speaker relating to the proposal. He asked the
applicant to make his presentation. Present: Mark O'Brian, Director of Operations and Steve Mann.
10. O'Brian -through this application, we are proposing to construct an addition to an existing storage
building on the Captains Golf Course property. The existing building is an 84' x 40' steel building with
a 26' x 40' overhang addition. The result will be a 131' x 40 enclosed steel building. The building is not
heated, there are no restrooms or plumbing of any kind associated with this building. The building will
be used only to store golf course equipment and fertilizer.
11. O'Brian - we are proposing to enclose the overhang area and add a 25' x 40' addition, resulting in a
131' x 40' enclosed steel building. The hours of operation for this building by employees are from
S:OOAM-2:OOPM.
12. O'Brian -The building is located in the middle of the golf course property, approximately 1,000 feet
from the Freeman's Way entrance and well over 1,000 feet from all property sidelines. The building is
not visible from anywhere off the golf course property. It is accessed by a service road, and is not
accessed by public traffic.
13. The Board concluded that the addition did not affect traffic, parking or the visual character of the area.
Therefore on a motion made by Bugle, McMullen second, "approve Special Permit for addition to the
existing storage building for the Captains Golf Course." Roll call voted all voted in favor.
