MASHPEE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS JUNE 22, 2016 MINUTES Mr. Feronti asked the Board if Mashpee Commons in the future decides to install several charging stations if it would require approval from the Zoning Board. Mr. Ford said that the Board could make a condition either to revise the locations of the charging stations that the Building Inspector could approve or that an open meeting could be scheduled. Mr. Mendoza said the Zoning Board of Appeals sets the process. Mr. Furbush prefers that Mashpee Commons return to the Zoning Board for the public notification on any changes. Mr. Feronti said that he agrees to return to the Board. He said that Tesla has applied for their Class 1 License with the Selectmen on July 11, 2016. The Board had reviewed the requests to be listed under the Special Permit issued for Tesla. They had a conversation regarding test drives, and the location where the vehicles will be parked within Mashpee Commons. The Board had a conversation regarding the amount of vehicle deliveries. Mr. Feronti would like Tesla to be able to have the ability to deliver the vehicles delivered to Mashpee Commons. Mr. Mendoza said that the Selectmen will need to know the amount of vehicles for test driving, and dedicated spaces for delivery and will - need to be reported to the Registry of Motor Vehicles. The Board needs to know the designated area to accept deliveries and the inventory. Mr. Ford said that there are certain reporting requirements for a car dealership and are listed under the Class 1 license. Mr. Feronti said that there will not be designated spaces for inventory. The Tesla vehicles that are taken out for test drives will be subject to the same leasing requirements that they have for all employee vehicles, which is parking in the designated spaces. Mr. John Renz said that there was only nine cars sold in Hingham over the last three months, so there would only be maybe one car for the owner to pick up. There is plenty of parking near the TD Bank. Mr. Blaisdell made a motion to approve Owner, Mashpee Commons 11 LLC requests a Special Permit under § 174-25-F (2) of the Zoning Bylaws to allow for sales, display, long term lease, and test drives only, of Tesla Motors, MA Inc., on property located at 11 Central Square, (Map 74 Parcel 20), Mashpee, MA.
