D & E, Palm Beach Shore Acres. Chairman Mayer explained that when the renovation project was first proposed, an entirely different plan had been presented for review. The plan was subsequently changed due to various permitting problems with State Agencies and a new preliminary site plan was reviewed and approved. He reminded that there was a very tight time schedule on this project and a complete set of documents were not received until later. While the pool and building were shown on the preliminary site plan, not all deminisions were present and thsmain concern at the time was the variance requested for the total number of parking spaces required. No variances for the pool and equipment room were requested but the site plan was approved, he said. The applicant is now requesting variances for the pool and equipment room. Mr. Digby Bridges pointed out that the equipment room is entirely under ground except for two small doors and there will be parking on top of the building. He also noted that the pool would be within the footprint of the original structure. O Mr. Eaton questioned why a variance was needed for the equipment room since it was under ground. Mr. Brandt, Mr. Bridges and the Town Clerk all felt that it still is a structure encroaching in the setback and as such would require a variance to construct. Mrs. Orthwein moved that the Planning Board recommend to the Board of Adjustment that the variances be approved as requested. The motion was seconded by Mr. Eaton and all voted AYE. IV. Public There was no comment from the public. Regular Meeting of August 15, 1990 page -2- V. Adjournment Mr. Eaton moved that the meeting be adjourned, seconded by Mrs. Orthwein-; and all voted AYE.
