PLAN REVIEW MEETING MINUTES SEPTEMBER 9, 2005 Present: Pat White, Administrative Assistant, Building Department Kathleen Moore, Acting Assistant Town Manager Richard Stevens, Building Inspector Steve Solbo, Assistant Conservation Agent Catherine Laurent, Assistant DPW Director Glen Harrington, Board of Health Agent Sheldon Hamblin, Deputy Fire Chief Tom Fudala, Town Planner Absent: Police Department Attendees: Shawn Geis, Terry Luff, Tom Andrade, Steven Hayes Opened 10:00 a.m. Projects Under Review: 46 Nicoletta's Way Special Permit Modification Add Second Floor Loft to Existing Building Terry Luff, Architect/owner, Presenting Mr. Luff is proposing an increase in the footprint, adding two loft spaces measuring 1,599sf and 1,320sf each for a total of 2,900sf storage space. The total building space will increase to 12,920sf. Tom F. noted that if he is expanding beyond 10% of the total square footage, he might need to go before the Planning Board for approval. Mr. Luff is showing 9 ft for a parking space width, but the new town regulations require 91/2 ft for a parking space. Tom F. stated that if he can prove useage will not involve high parking turnover, shopping carts, and large vehicles,the 9' parking space could pass. Mr. Luff stated that the buildings are under 7,500sf and therefore will not require a sprinkler system. Mr. Luff plans to talk with the Cape Cod Commission before his scheduled ZBA hearing on September 141h. Torn will clarify with Town Counsel about what is required with new expansion over 10,000sf and the width of the parking space. Glen stated the expansion does not affect the septic requirements since it is storage only. If the system is less than two years old,the certificate of compliance can include the additional space. If the process goes beyond two years to get a permit, he will need a septic inspection.
