i <br /> ownership. He is gifted with a situation and that is the best he can consider doing <br /> right n or. That is why he is inquiring about the variance. <br /> Mr. Doherty then stated that one of the abutters is present tonight. The BOH <br />' would like to hear his thoughts. <br /> i <br /> Mr. Belekewicz re-entered the conversation at that port in time. He began by <br /> stating that he didn't Grant to male any enemies More. However, he felt that he <br /> had to come and do something. He has one man on the left of hien that wanted to <br /> build a warehouse and needed variance. Then he had another person in back of <br /> him that is probably going to build something. Now this thing comes up to the <br /> right of him. In looking at the piece o land, it has been tough enough since 1978 <br /> either he or his father has owned the property, and seeing what has happened to <br /> Algonquin Avenue. He can't imagine putting a house on this little bit ofland in <br /> addition to all the other variances it is going to need. what is it 2 0' from each <br /> border or something life that or...He didn't know the proper terms. <br /> Mr. Doherty interjected that a lot of times he'll play devil's advocate and give you <br /> both sides of the argument. Let's say that you owned this and for years and year <br /> you didn't have the resources to develop and all of a sudden you do. How would <br /> you feel sitting in his shoes? He is not saying what is right or wrong. People buy <br /> property usually with the intent to develop it at some point. This particular board <br /> is not necessarily concerned with uses. That is a zoning issue. They are <br /> concerned, but to be technically correct that is a zoning issue. The warehouse is <br /> close enough to Rte 151 that is why he is getting the variance. Another argument <br /> that could be said is that some people would say it is nice the way it is and it is <br /> going to ruin any view, well, you buy it. But, the fact is that most people do buy <br /> property to develop it. You have to consider all the requests that are corning forth. <br /> Our primary concern is the public health i. e. would the construction of a house <br /> here with it's associated sewage disposal system constitute a hazard or an undue <br /> burden on the environmental system or can it support it. Not that we always <br /> strictly limit our discussion to that it is our party focus. Small., could I want to- <br /> build a house there, probably not? It is going to be a small house on a tight lot. <br /> But, we don't always have the luiury of having big lots. Cod hors, look at the <br /> small lots down in Popponesset and hour over-developed that is because people <br /> have certain ways or expectations. They do the best they can with requests that <br /> come in. Essentially ghat is being proposed is a re-circulating sand filter which is <br /> definitely an improvement over the standard'Title V which offers little or no <br /> treatment other than solid settling. But, chat it would put into the ground would <br /> be significantly clear than a standard Title V. He didn't know r if Mr. Belekewicz <br /> had any concerns specifically about the waste water disposal system. Nov is the <br /> time with the engineer More along with the BOH members and they might be able <br /> to answer his questions. They are all very cognizant ofthe fact that it is a real <br /> small lot problem. <br /> Mr. Belekewicz continued by stating that he thought that if the BOH member <br /> thought that it was okay...He is on town water and it wouldn't get into the town <br /> crater. <br /> 10 <br />
