Tom stated that all he knows is that he is sure it has to do with <br /> bringing Mr. Burtis ' s open rack storage into conformance. Now <br /> the by law allows storage but in an enclosed building. <br /> Marinas are allowed by special permit in a residential district <br /> and the rack storage is allowed at a marina. <br /> Louise asked how it would change the density and number of boats <br /> stored? <br /> Tom stated that the definition does not effect the density either <br /> way, the height limitation in the R district would be the <br /> limitation and the lot coverage. <br /> Tony would like to know what other areas would be effected by <br /> this, the other marinas in town. <br /> Tom stated that a marina has to have frontage on a navigable body <br /> of water in a R district. <br /> Judy stated that it is inappropriate for a residential area, the <br /> by law was written to require an enclosed building to be more <br /> consistent with a residential area. It would be more appropriate <br /> in an industrial area. <br /> Tony stated that this brings to the Boards attention that a <br /> marina could be created in a residential district. There is no C <br /> or I zoning on waterfront. This may be a bylaw which should not <br /> exist any more. The waterfront areas are fully developed as <br /> residential areas . <br /> Tom stated that there is a need for marinas and for the existing <br /> marinas. <br /> Wayne agrees that a marina is not appropriate in residential but <br /> also agrees that there is a need for a good marina. <br /> tinny Driscol stated that she is an opponent of the rack storage <br /> and she believes the reason they did appear tonight to explain <br /> the article was to by pass the system again. The Town of Mashpee <br /> ,has jammed this thing down their throat. They do not want it in <br /> their residential neighborhood. To change the bylaw would be <br /> wrong. <br /> Tom. stated that in Falmouth they had a rack storage and insisted <br /> it be enclosed and put a number of condition on it, they came up <br /> with a way to deal with it. They accommodated it but with rules . <br /> Wayne stated that considering no one person is here to tell him <br /> why he should support it how could he consider voting in favor of <br /> it. <br /> Kathleen Ferry, Seconsett Island was present. She stated that <br /> the neighbors did try to meet with Mr. Burtis to try to come to <br /> 5 <br />
