Classic Auto Realty Trust Revised Plans from June 7, 2011 Representative — Dan Creedon (Attorney) Dan Creedon, Matt Eddy, and Scott Jones appeared. Attorney Creedon addressed the meeting saying that they submitted new landscape plan and hope it's responsive to Mary LeBlanc's notes. He explained the changes that were made. Also new photometric plan was submitted to show lighting contained on the site. Grading going into buffer issue has hopefully been addressed in the new plans submitted. Summing it up...new landscape plan, new engineering plans, new building plans and new photometric plan have been submitted. Tom Fudala commented that breakdown of use still not answered. Mr. Creedon said their consistent response to that throughout is they won't know until they have tenant. Matt Eddy added that if entire site was office—which he said isn't going to happen—it would need 67 parking spaces. They calculated typical use—manufacturing/warehouse—and they put in 61 spaces but calculations were that 44 would be required. Matt said they would like to get Planning Board to approve with restriction that use had to cover not more than 61 spaces. Tom Fudala responded that boards have been burned in the past by approving this way so you have to get a little more specific. Tom explained it is better for applicant to specify caps up front, rather than Planning Board. Tom mentioned that medical offices much more parking intensive than regular office. Walter Yarosh asked about spacing between parking spaces and overhead doors. Walter said one thing to look at is if you have use that doesn't need overhead doors and the overhead doors disappear then you pick up 2 parking spaces for each door—so you could pick up 8 parking spaces on this plan. Attorney Creedon said we keep talking about deferring to a very restrictive use from parking perspective—guess it would be 10% office and 90% warehouse. He said each space is going to need a Certificate of Occupancy and so it can be easily enforced. Walter Yarosh said the problem is that with a building at a height of 21 feet they illegally build upstairs and then don't have parking for it. Matt Eddy said they understand that but you have an applicant coming in who needs a warehouse— you can't penalize someone because someone else did illegal build. Attorney Creedon said we could
