Hold it, notify abutters and have lengthy conversation before voting on it
To hold it, notify abutters and have lengthy conversation before voting on it. Ms. Scott Price thought that before this is placed on a future agenda, the Board must notify the applicant what is expected from him. Mr. Johnson-Staub asked the Board members if they want to ask for changes in the application or does the Board wish to notify abutters and have the application come back in exactly the same form it is in now. Mr. Zylinski thought that the abutters' input could help dictate what that mediation could be. Mr. Patterson expressed the need to be consistent with other businesses in that area so that the Board has a consistent policy for anyone else who may come forward. Mr. Brown said it may not be 100% consistent since some licenses have been existing, and some are farther from residents. Public Comment: Mr. Marc Finneran, speaking as a citizen, said there is a license down the street and there are residential apartments within the building, and asked the Board to consider all of that. He has known Mr. Gregoriadis for decades and said he is hard working and dedicated. Chair Taylor thanked the applicant and announced that the Board is going to hold this item it and put it on another agenda. MINUTES 1. Review and Vote to Approve Minutes of Meetings a.
