Approximately

Witnesses

A
A
Testimony
to

and
mr

then
to

your
testimony
as
do.
A
Mr
schaefer,
thank
you
with
your
permission.
I'll
remain
seated,
so
I
don't
block
people.
A
A
A
Mr
schaefer,
you
can
proceed
to
call
sean
hochstad
as
my
first
witness.
Would
you
like
him
to
sit.
C
D
Show
and
tell
the
board
a
little
bit
about
your
background
and
experience.
I'm
born
and
raised
in.
D
D
C
D
Children,
I
am,
I
have
three
little
ones
and
my
wife
is
a
manchester
valley,
high
school
teacher,
so.
D
You
know
dad
my
dad
started
this
business
in
1989.
and
he
went
through
trials
and
tribulations.
D
D
C
Now
that's
a
business
that
your
father
developed
over
the
years
is
that
correct.
That
is
correct.
C
They're,
the
kind
of
buildings
that
you
that
you
do
right,
yes,
that's,
correct
and-
and
you
currently.
C
C
C
C
C
What
kind
of
a
generally
just
generally
describe
what
kind
of
equipment
you
use
in.
C
D
Towers
manless
forklifts
now
you've
you've
prepared
a
an
equipment
list
of
current.
C
C
C
C
D
C
Should
you
say
89
89,
that's
correct!
So
that's
20,
some
30
some
years.
C
In
those
30
years,
has
the
business
been
pretty
steady
or
is
it
up
and
down?
You
know
it's.
C
A
You
know
mr
hoxtead
is
it:
is
it
possible
that
that
equipment
list
will
change?
In
other
words,.
D
D
D
C
C
C
I
mean:
is
there
a
christmas
party
or
something
or
yes,
possibly
maybe
once
a
year
and
generally.
D
D
C
C
Now,
what
what
will
the
the
secretary
or
the
the
office
administrator,
I
think.
C
C
C
C
D
And,
and
will
you
also
perform
and
that
you
call
it
character,
is
that
is
regular,
routine.
C
Now
will
there
be
an
any
other
I'll
call
them
trips,
traffic
trips?
You
know
what
I.
C
Trips
would
occur
during
the
day
associated
with
that
that
contract
equipment,
storage
yard.
C
D
Or
the
yes,
but
very,
very
minimal,
who
drives
that
dump
truck.
I
do
okay,
of
course,
you're.
C
Have
you
have
you
hired
a
a
an
architect
to
do
some
preliminary
drawings,
not
preliminary.
C
But
drawings
of
the
proposed
contracts
or
equipment,
facility
and
office-
yes,
all
right.
C
I'm
gonna
show
you
what's
been
marked,
exhibit
number
three.
Is
that
the
the.
C
Affirm
this
yes,
mr
schaefer,
you
can
get
close
to
the
don't,
don't
touch
these.
C
C
Right
and
then
point
to
the
existing
driveway
that
accesses
that
site
point
to
where
the.
C
Approximate
location
of
where
you
think
sha
is
going
to
want
slash,
accept
your
new
entrance.
C
A
A
A
A
I
just
it's
a
point
to
the
point
to
the
area:
that's
the
contracts,
equipment,
storage,
yard
area.
C
C
Office
will
be
the
front
building
and
point
to
the
contract
equipment
building.
Okay,
now
with.
A
C
Is
does
that
show
the
some
elevations
for
the
office
now.
D
C
And
stuff
like
that
right,
correct,
what's
the
square
footage,
I
I'm
sorry
while
you're
there.
C
C
You
just
generally
explain
the
word
same
thing.
The
bottom
four
feet
above
grade.
D
Floor
plan
to
show
the
bathroom,
yeah,
okay
and
then
we're
gonna,
I'd
like
to
offer.
C
Will
the
equipment,
where
will
the
bulk
of
the
equipment
that
you
that
you
you
store
on
the
site.
D
D
C
Gets
correct,
wet
and
swelling
and
stuff
like
that
correct?
Yes,
do
you
store
any
other.
C
Site,
no,
you
store
oil
on
the
site.
No,
you
do
intend
to
have
a
a
tank
diesel
tank.
C
C
C
C
C
C
C
The
site
along
maryland
route,
30.,
what's
that
topography
like
it
from
route
30
up
to.
D
D
C
But
it's
on
inner
near
the
village
of
melrose,
correct,
correct!
Now
what
is
melrose.
D
A
little
further
south
is
highs
gas
station.
Okay,
now
you're
down
in.
C
Did
you
get
a
letter
from
him?
I
did
all
right
and,
and
is
that
letter.
C
Now
you
own
40
acres
up
there
and
you're
gonna
put
your
own
house
on
there.
Do
you
do.
C
C
Zoning
reviews
and
planning
commission
reviews
before
that
any
anything
like
that
would
be.
C
C
C
And
you've
talked
in
some
detail
with
myself
and
keith
heindel
about
that.
Have
you
not
yes,.
C
Do
you
at
least
based
on
your
preliminary?
Have
you
done
preliminary
perks
for
this
building
yeah.
C
C
For
mr
hochstead,
does
anyone
in
the
audience
have
any
questions
of
mr
hofsted's
testimony.
C
D
Or
if
the
economy
went
bad
but
the
relatively
speaking,
no,
they
will
not
be
on
that
site.
C
Mr
michaels,
I
didn't
I
didn't
get
your
address.
Sorry,
I'm
at
4850
hay
drive,
hey
h-a-y,.
A
Well,
mr
michaels
was:
was
gracious
enough
name,
address
occupation
and
spelled
for
the.
A
Record
your
last
name:
larry
hurtigan,
last
name
h-e-r-d-e-g-e-n,
I'm
at
4756
hay
drive
manchester.
G
Occupation,
semi-retired,
general
superintendent.
My
question
is:
with
the
site
with
storing.
G
One
of
my
other
concerns
is
being
a
general
superintendent
for
42
years.
A
lot
of
my
equipment.
G
D
The
morning
the
equipment
won't
be
at
this
yard
and
when
the
equipment
does
come
there,
if.
D
D
Haven't
decided,
we
may
use
the
bulk
oil
for
heat
in
the
shop
right,
but.
G
G
G
G
G
E
E
And
you
said
also
that
they
wouldn't
be
there
at
the
at
that
yard.
All
the
time.
D
D
E
Right
and
so
we'll
have
to
rent
some
equipment
to
fill
in
until
we
can
get
a
piece
broke.
D
D
D
C
C
H
D
D
H
I
I
I
I
D
The
woods
line
on
the
I
guess,
it'd
be
the
north
east
side,
which
would
be
the
side
facing
my
house.
D
I
D
D
D
D
A
Okay,
the
question
that
I
have
so
your
rebar
any
materials
associated
other
than
the
four
materials.
C
Because
you
need
one,
no,
it's
it's
this
one,
it's,
mr,
as
as
a
veto.
C
Because
of
your
weird
distance
code,
but
no
that's
not
where
we
need
to
variance
from
okay.
C
C
G
Right
larry
hurt
again
h-e-r-d-e-g-e-n
4756
hay
drive
manchester.
If
we're,
if
we're
having.
G
A
C
Okay,
state,
your
name
and
address
and
occupation
for
the
record.
Please
keith,
heindel.
J
Hannah
I'm
with
hanover
land
services.
Our
office
is
194
east
main
street
in
westminster.
C
And,
what's
your
occupation,
I'm
a
land
surveyor?
Are
you
a
registered
land
surveyor
in
the
state.
C
How
long
have
you
been
doing
that
work.
J
And
I've
been
licensed
since
2003.
and
and
you
were
with
al
snyder
for
18
plus
years.
J
Services
back
in
have
you
qualified
as
an
expert
in
the
area
of
land
use
since
and
site.
C
J
Times
I
would
ask
that
he'd
be
recognized
as
an
expert
in
the
area
of
land
use,
site
development.
C
C
J
Little
over
40
acres,
as
discussed
previously
there's
an
existing
driveway
that
ends.
J
C
J
This
is
you'll
see
on
here
that
this
this
looks
like
a
cloud.
Almost
that's
the
edge
of.
J
The
forest,
the
existing
woods,
so
this
purpose
of
having
this
storage
yard
one.
J
C
J
Issues,
this
is
up,
the
center
of
the
site
is
a
swale
or
a
valley,
and
that's
where
our
entrance
is.
J
J
Bed
there
it's
not
paved
so
that's
the
existing
farm
reps
for
access
between
the.
J
For
the
commercial
use,
that'll
be
part
of
the
access
permit.
This
is
what
I'll
be.
J
I
I
C
E
A
quick
question
before
you
go
away:
what
kind
of
trees
are
there
decidues
or
yes,
they're
deciduous
trees?
Okay,.
C
J
Sites
across
the
street
are
fairly
flat
in
green,
is,
is,
is
this
property
generally
a
larger.
C
C
Sir,
all
right
describe,
you
heard
sean
hawke's
dead,
describe
the
surrounding
area.
C
C
Shown
on
your
drawing
correct,
that's
correct
is
is,
in
your
opinion,
is
this
area
typical.
J
It
very
carroll
county.
Is
it
it's
very
typical
for
carroll
county,
where
there
are.
J
J
C
This
melrose
area
somewhat
typical,
namely
a
crossroads
where
there's
a
center
of
commercial.
J
Small
amounts
of
noise,
which
I
think
are
typical
of
of
any
project
site
and
currently
the.
J
Property
is,
is,
is
farmed,
so
there's
there's
noise
there
as
well
during
farming
activities.
C
Okay,
let
me
just
think,
oh
and
now
the
variance
request
we
we
got
into
it
a
little.
C
Shielded,
at
least
in
part,
by
forest,
correct
that
is
correct.
What
would
be
the
hardship.
J
C
C
C
J
The
distance
requirements
for
the
use
for
the
contractor
storage
yard
understood
incorrectly.
He.
C
J
Certainly
a
factor-
and
we
were
able
to
do
that.
The
other
factor
is
as
mr
hoxtad
and
I.
J
G
Mr
hertigan
larry
hurtigan
h-e-r-d-e-g-n,
hey,
drive
manchester
keith.
The
question
is:
if.
J
The
existing
fields
down
towards
route
30.,
so
I
mean
that's
an
obvious
reason
why
we
can't.
J
Whatever
land
rights,
mr
hochstad
has,
we
have
not
pursued
additional
perk
tests
at
this
time
for.
J
Any
additional
creation
of
additional
residential
lots,
but
that's
certainly
a
possibility.
A
C
Remember
that's
a
complicated
question
because
of
the
complications
of
the
distance
language,
yeah.
C
C
That's
why
we
so
anyway,
we
did
just
a
little
comment
on
the
on
the
ordinance.
C
C
C
C
C
Is
that
it's
got
to
be
the
43
000
square
feet,
we
drew
a,
we
drew
a
square
by
218
around
the
house.
C
C
Locate
it
anywhere
else
is
that
true,
I
believe,
that's
correct
clerk,
because
there's
there's.
C
G
G
G
K
Board
members,
no
questions,
mr
hartigan,
thanks
for
your
participation
here
today.
F
F
A
Okay,
at
this
point,
presentation
of
testimony
and
evidence
is
now
closed
and
some
asians
are.
C
Contractors,
equipment,
storage,
yard
case,
so
you
know
they're
on
all
kinds
of
properties.
It's
a
40.
C
Truly,
the
skepticism
that
was
evidenced
and
and
ferreted
out
by
the
questions
from
the
from.
C
C
Yes,
it's
true,
that's
the
way
the
business
works,
and
so
the
testimony
clearly
shows
that.
C
C
C
C
Be
justified
under
the
circumstances
and
and
furthermore,
as
I
know
you
will
remember,
is.
C
C
A
I
I
I
One
thing
I
do
look
at
in
storage
yards
is
that
there
is
not
an
indication.
It's
going
to
digress.
I
I
I
I
Particular
case
I
have
no
problem,
mitigating
the
variance
in
that
the
the
site
for
the
storage.
I
I
will
share
that.
I
would
support
approving
the
variance
and
improving
the
use.
H
E
A
Building
is
located
pretty
close
to
the
existing
trees.
It's
screened
in
that
direction.
