Apply to Design Review and ZBA 628 Main Street (Cheapo Depot) Joseph Anastos Proposes a recreational center with batting cages and arcade, etc. He wants to establish the viability and value of his concept before he purchases the property. He has done this before in Foxboro. There would be three levels and the batting cages would be at the garage level. There would be in-house security, and it would be family-oriented. The number one issue with the Board of Health is water; they are on a semi-public well that is limited to 14 persons in the building. The restriction goes away when connects to Town water. He will need to talk to the Water District to tie in. He plans to put in a concession. He will need to conform to code for stairways, egress, elevator, sprinkler system(since there is no fire separation in there),parking. Parking for a sports club category is 1 per 200 square feet for a total of 90 spaces there. Planning will require a Special Permit. Town Planner comments: Property is located in C-3 Commercial zoning district. The proposed uses are allowed by Special Permit from the Planning Board under Sections 174-25.B(14)(for any outdoor batting cages etc.) and 174-25.B.(18)(for indoor batting cages,video games etc.). No plans provided, so no other comments other than reminder that max lot coverage by buildings is 20%, storm water management per Section 174- 21.1 is required and parking, including lot design and landscaping,must conform to current Sections 174-35 through 42. Summary: Water hook up from the District to satisfy the Board of Health and sprinklers are the critical issues. The Minutes from April 29, 2005 were moved and approved as presented. The Committee discussed the water pressure problems at Anchor Self-Storage. Adjourned. // Mary Gelstho e, Record'n' ecre
