From YouTube: Zoning Board of Appeals of 11-1-22
Description
City of Chelsea
A
We're
going
to
get
started.
This
is
the
zoning
board
of
appeals.
Today's
November
1st
I
am
Janice
detarka
I
am
joined
by
John
depriest
Arthur
Arsenault,
Hugo,
Perdomo,
Joe,
Mahoney
and
Marilyn
Vega
Torres.
We
will
soon
be
joined
by
Joan
Cromwell,
but
we
can
get
started
without
her.
The
first
case
in
front
of
us
is
2022-22
295
Eastern,
Ave,
295
Eastern,
Ave
LLC.
When
you
come
up,
please
be
sure
all
of
you
to
speak
into
the
microphones.
I
will
be
reminding
you
regularly.
A
A
Okay,
who
is
here.
Can
we
let's
get
started
to
any
22
22
295
Eastern
Ave.
B
Thank
you.
My
name
is
Jared
argument:
I'm
attorney
with
Reuben
Junius
and
Rose
with
an
office
at
112,
Water
Street
in
Boston.
Our
team
was
before
you
in
September.
So
rather
than
go
over
the
full
presentation
again,
we
have
a
shorter
one
tonight
that
Mr
depriest
will
bring
up,
but
we
have
our
whole
team
again.
C
Board
recommended
approval
with
sorry.
The
Plenty
board
recommended
approval
with
conditions.
Okay,.
B
The
short
one
for
tonight
so
Jackie,
that's
the.
C
B
Next
slide,
please.
So
this
is
an
overview
of
the
proposal.
It's
114
000
square
foot,
light
industrial
Warehouse
building
has
133
parking
spaces
17
loading.
This
is
a
really
good
rendering
because
it
shows
the
whole
site.
It's
about
a
19,
Acre,
Site,
I
believe
and
you'll
notice
that
the
most
of
the
truck
traffic
is
to
the
south
of
the
building
towards
the
creek
and
away
from
the
MBTA
and
and
the
butter
305
Eastern
Avenue.
B
But
there
is
a
considerable
Public
Access
that
we
talked
about
and,
of
course,
was
very
important
to
the
planning
board.
Next
slide,
please,
this
puts
puts
it
into
context
for
those
familiar
with
the
site.
So
this
is
a
former
petroleum
tank
farm.
The
tanks
were
pulled
some
15
or
20
years
ago.
So
today
there
are
a
couple
industrial
buildings
at
the
southerly,
so
South
is
at
the
top.
Actually,
the
southerly
end
of
the
building
a
suddenly
into
the
site,
and
then
this
is
the
old
Jetty.
That's
sticking
out.
C
B
Chelsea
Creek,
which
will
be
open
up
to
the
public
next
slide.
Please
we
wanted
to
focus
on
the
site
plan,
because
when
we
left
you
in
September
there
were
some
specific
questions
that
we
didn't
have
complete
answers,
but
we
do
now
so
snow
storage.
That's
an
important
aspect.
That's
now
shown
at
this.
The
lower
left
and
the
top
right
are
the
designated
areas
to
make
sure
we
have
enough
room
when
the
plows
come
in,
they
can
push
the
snow
onto
them
and
and
the
trucks
and
cars
can
still
get
through.
B
There
was
a
question
also
about
the
dumpster
location.
That's
been
located
right
in
the
middle.
At
the
lower
of
the
southerly
wall,
you'll
see
a
dumpster
enclosure.
We
can
blow
these
up
if
needed.
So
that's
accounted
for
other
aspects
of
the
site.
We
can
I,
don't
want
to
belabor
because
we
talked
about
them
last
time,
but
to
orient
you,
the
entrance
is
from
Eastern
Avenue,
both
for
the
public
and
for
tenants.
B
The
building
is
designed
to
have
up
to
three
Warehouse
tenants,
so
they
each
have
their
own
office
space
and
then
the
trucks
as
I
say,
are
going
to
go
into
this.
This
wide
paved
area,
the
public
will
be
able
to
walk,
and
we
have
our
landscape
architect
here.
Marie
Adams,
to
give
more
detail,
can
go
towards
the
water,
but
they
can
also
circumnavigate
the
whole
site,
and
so
there's
another
employee
parking
lot
at
the
Northerly
corner
at
the
top
right
on
this
slide
and
then
there's
a
landscape
path.
B
That's
shown,
the
property
line
is
actually
outboard
of
that
path.
Quite
a
ways.
So
there's
been
a
lot
of
attention
to
making
sure
there's
a
fence
of
some
kind.
Put
there
we're
proposing
a
split
rail
so
that
the
public
isn't
confused
and
they
know
that's
the
end
of
the
path
and
not
to
go
across
it
and
then
there's
in
the
employee
parking
lot
there.
B
The
neighbor
has
an
easement
that
crosses
into
it
and
also
our
tenants
may
need
to
get
into
that
parking
lot
without
having
to
drive
all
the
way
around
past
the
truck
area.
So
we're
proposing
I
wrote
a
letter
today
and
I've
talked
to
the
butter
about
it,
a
gate
so
the
the
gate
would
the
default
would
be
locked,
but
there
would
be
a
code,
and
so
it
would
be
available
for
authorized
people,
but
not
the
public
to
drive
in
there.
We
just
want
the
public
to
come
in
off
of
Eastern
Avenue
next
slide.
Please.
B
Staff
also
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
had
our
truck
routes
correct,
and
so
we
submitted
this
slide
to
staff
I'm
sure
this
is
going
to
be
familiar
to
the
board
members.
But
essentially,
if
you
come
from
the
north
on
Route
1,
you
you
come
off
of
Carter
Street
exit
and
then
you
connect
through
a
series
of
streets
and
you
essentially
stay
on
the
perimeter
of
Chelsea
and
out
of
the
neighborhoods,
that's
a
designated
truck
path
and
get
to
the
Eastern
Avenue
entrance
of
the
site,
which
is
marked
there.
B
B
We
also
had
questions
I'm,
not
sure
if
it
was
just
here
or
also
at
the
planning
board,
but
to
make
sure
that
our
radii
worked
for
the
truck
to
make
sure
that,
if
we're
going
to
have
trucks
coming
into
this
facility,
they
can
get
in
and
out.
So
this
is
the
turn
coming
from
the
south
on
Eastern
into
the
site
next
slide,
and
then
this
is
out
again
going
north.
So
again
the
radii
have
been
checked
and
double
checked
to
make
sure
we
have
adequate
room
and
the
curbs
are
in
the
right
place.
John.
B
Final
slide,
so
one
thing
that
I
wanted
to
note
is
that
there
is
going
to
be
a
post-occupancy
monitoring
of
three
intersections
and
again
transportation
and
a
transportation
planner
Ken,
cramen
and
Mr
depriest
can
go
into
detail,
but
the
three
intersections
are
the
are
the
major
ones
you
would
expect.
B
So
once
the
building
is
fully
occupied,
we'll
at
our
expense,
monitor
Eastern
Ave
at
Chelsea
Street
by
that
bridge,
Eastern
Ave
at
Crescent,
Avenue
and
Eastern
Ave
at
Broadway
those
three
pinch
points
and
if
it's
necessary
to
re-time
the
lights,
that's
our
responsibility.
The
board
would
have
us,
do
that
so
I
wanted
to
make
clear
that
will
be
a
condition
of
approval.
B
A
D
Can
you
remind
us
about
the
lighting
the
outside
lighting?
Yes,.
B
The
lighting
we
have
not
submitted
a
plan
yet
and
that's
deliberate,
because
we
it
will
have
to
go
through
staff.
That
will
also
be
a
condition
of
approval,
we'll
have
to
come
back
with
a
lighting
and
a
photo
metric.
We
have
not
submitted.
One
part
of
the
issue
is
accessed
by
the
public,
we're
proposing
at
this
area,
because
it's
an
industrial
facility
that
the
access
by
the
public
be
dawn
to
dusk,
rather
than
24
7,
which
would
be
different
lighting,
and
we
would
work
that
out
with
staff
subject
to
your
approval.
A
Okay,
the
public
hearing
on
this
is
still
open.
Is
there
anyone
who
wishes
to
speak
on
this?
Sir?
Please
get
to
your
microphone
and.
E
Glyptol
is
the
manufacturing
facility.
That's
right.
Next
door
glyptol,
as
you
may
recall,
from
the
initial
hearing,
had
two
main
concerns.
The
first
one
was
safety
with
respect
to
people
passing
through
their
property
in
order
to
get
to
the
creek
front
area
there
and
because
there's
a
very
heavy
truck
traffic
on
that
property.
We
were
concerned
with
at
times
when
people
would
be
using
the
the
front
Frontage
there
that
they
would
be
wandering
through
and
there
would
be
real
safety
concerns
with
the
traffic.
E
That's
been
a
recurrent
issue
over
the
years
and
I
think
we
have
resolved
that
issue
with
respect
to
the
fence,
that's
being
put
up
between.
E
And
we've
agreed
that
two
sides
have
agreed
to
put
a
gate
there.
That
would
be
a
coated,
locked
gate,
I
think
that's
going
to
resolve
the
issue
and
it's
going
to
stop
at
least
stop
traffic
pick
from
going
down
there,
civilian
traffic
and
cars
and
things
like
that,
and
we
hope
that
the
fence
will
also
stop
kids
from
going
through.
E
It
is
a
split
rail
fence
at
present,
so
we're
hoping
to
upgrade
that
a
little
bit
to
make
it
a
little
bit
more
of
an
obstacle
for
people
to
pass
through
there
and
get
in
get
in
front
of
trucks
and
not
get
hit
by
trucks
and
that
sort
of
thing.
E
So
that's
that's
one
thing
we've
been
discussing
as
far
as
upgrading
that
fence,
but
with
respect
to
what
this
board,
what
we're
asking
from
you
is
just
a
a
condition
that
that
gate,
B
part
of
the
project
that
a
coded,
lock
and
gate
be
part
of
the
project
and
that
the
fence
be
slightly
more
substantial
than
a
split
rail
fence.
We're
not
asking
for
you
know.
As
we
said,
it's
we're
not
looking
for
concertina
wire
or
anything
like
that.
E
But
just
something
that
presents
a
little
bit
more
of
an
obstacle
with
respect
to
kids
jumping
through
there
and
and
getting
hit
by
a
truck
that
sort
of
thing.
The
second
issue
that
you're
aware
of
is
that
we
had
had
flooding
some
flooding
issues
on
the
property.
For
the
past
50
plus
years,
there
have
been
a
an
arrangement,
a
place
where
my
clients,
property
at
305,
had
had
a
drain
that
went
through
295's
property
and
that
had
effectively
prevented
flooding
on
that
property.
E
That
has
disintegrated
slightly
over
time
and
there's
been
more
flooding
issues
that
have
come
up
with
this
project.
A
new
drainage
system
is
being
built
on
the
property
that
would
not
include
this
this
drain,
so
our
main
concern
was
that,
because
this
drain
would
not
be
kept
up,
that
would
again
cause
major
flooding
issues
on
the
property
and
in
fact
it's
that
started
slowly
happening
already,
because
that
drain
has
been
plugged
over
time.
E
So
what
we're
doing
is
we're
working
between
our
Engineers
right
now
to
try
to
come
up
with
a
solution
to
get
a
drainage
easement
over
their
property.
To
allow
us
to
you
know,
build
an
area
to
collect
water
in
the
back
of
lipdal's
property,
get
a
pump
in
there
and
the
pump
that,
through
the
295
property
that
that
and
it's
really
not
going
under
any
buildings
or
anything
like
that.
It's
just
through
basically
under
grass
to
the
creek
and
and
get
that
water
drained,
so
that
the
issue
doesn't
arise
again.
E
So
that's
kind
of
an
update
on
where
we
are
okay
there
and
we're
we're
trying
to
work
out
those
engineering
issues.
A
Yes,
I,
don't
know,
I
mean
I
I
can
understand
when
it
comes
to
site
planning
that
we
as
the
board,
have
the
authority
to
talk
about
or
to
ask
the
planning
department
to
approve
what
kind
of
gate
or
fence
would
go
there.
I
don't
know
what
our
rights
are
over
easements
on
for
water.
We
have
that's
not
within
our
purview,
correct,
okay,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
I
mean
clearly
we
we
can
only
result
talk
about
what
we
can
talk
about
when
we
can
talk
about
the
fence
and
the
gate.
E
I,
don't
know
that
you
do
have
rights
with
respect
to
an
easement.
The
authority
of
my
as
my
understanding
is
the
authority
of
the
board.
Here
would
be
to
say:
okay,
you
can't
you
can't
do
something
on
your
property
that
would
enhance
or
cause
flooding
on
an
adjacent
property.
This
technically
meets
that
re,
that
that
basis
or
requirement
there
are
specific
term
because
they
are
undoing
the
present
situation
that
would
potentially
cause
flooding
on
our
property.
E
So
yes,
it,
the
the
development,
could
cause
a
problem,
but
they
are
cooperating
between
the
engineers,
we're
very
hopeful
that
an
easement
will
be
arranged
so
that
that
eventuality
will
not
happen,
and
we
will
be
able
to
to
get
our
own
sort
of
pumping
system
in
place
and
allow
that
to
occur.
So
I
don't
know
where
that
puts
yeah
I
just,
but
you
know
we
are
working
on
it.
My
hope
is
that
that
will
continue
to
work,
we'll
work
on
that,
and
if
there
are
any
problems,
we'll
bring
it
bring
it.
A
G
Have
to
introduce
yourself,
I'm,
sorry,
Thomas,
ambrosino,
I'm,
the
city
manager
and
I
want
to
let
the
board
know
that
the
city's
Administration
is
in
full
support
of
this
project.
We
I
should
say
we,
but
it's
really.
G
With
respect
to
the
issues
with
their
owners,
the
city
has
encouraged
them
to
work
out
their
differences,
and
we
anticipate
that
as
sophisticated
businesses.
They
can
do
that.
I,
don't
want
that.
Shouldn't
hold
up
the
requested
permits.
The
one
thing
I
do
want
to
ask:
is
this:
the
developers
have
agreed
to
pay
the
city's
new
linkage
fee
now
that
was
approved
by
the
legislature.
G
We
have
not
yet
implemented
it
locally
with
the
required
ordinance,
but
there
is
a
draft
ordinance
kicking
around
for
the
council's
review
and
the
developers
have
agreed
to
pay
what
is
in
that
draft
ordinance,
which
is
12.50
per
square
foot
for
a
commercial
building
for
every
square
foot
above
twenty
five
thousand
dollars.
The
city
would
like
that
listed
as
a
condition.
In
order
to
do
that,
however,
you
do
have
to
also
at
the
same
time,
waive
the
community
Improvement
trust
fund
fee,
because
this
linkage
fee
is
intended
to
become
the
successor
to
the
community.
G
Improvement
trust
fund
fee
we're
not
going
to
require
both.
So
when
the
ordinance
gets
approved
for
the
linkage
fee,
the
community
Improvement
trust
fund
fee
will
be
repealed
and
we
will
do
that
at
the
same
time
with
the
council.
But
right
now
you
would
have
to
you
have
to
vote
as
part
of
your
decision
to
waive
that
fee,
which
you
have
the
right
to
do
under
that
ordinance
and
I
asked
you
to
do
that,
and
instead
impose
this
linkage
fee,
which
the
developer
has
agreed
to
pay.
G
H
Carl
Allen
I'm,
the
economic
development
planner
for
the
city
of
Chelsea
and
I
just
want
to
very
briefly
reiterate
what
the
city
manager
just
said.
This
parcel
is
a
key
to
our
Economic
Development
strategy.
It's
going
to
accomplish
the
two
major
objectives
of
our
Municipal
Harbor
plan,
which
is
to
increase
job
density
on
the
waterfront
and
to
provide
public
access
to
the
Waterfront.
H
This
is
one
of
the
three
Parcels
that
was
removed
from
the
designated
Port
area
by
the
boundary
review
that
was
done
in
2016,
and
it's
taken
a
long
time
to
get
us
to
this
point
where
we're
actually
going
to
see
productive
use
of
that
space,
so
I
urge
the
board
to
adopt
or
to
issue
the
permits
that
have
been
requested
with
conditions.
Thank.
I
Good
evening,
Roseanne
bongiovanni,
so
hot
okay,
but
then
it
falls
out
at
me.
Roseanne
bongiovanni,
executive
director
of
green
roots
and
Chelsea
resident
I
want
to
support
what
Tom
said
earlier.
The
proponents
of
this
site
have
been
working
with
the
community
for
well
over
two
years.
They
had
a
number
of
community
visioning
sessions,
including
a
site
walk
back
in
May
of
2021,
with
over
50
people,
getting
them
out
onto
the
Chelsea
Creek
to
ask
them
what
they
would
like
to
see
over
the
course
of
the
last
two
years.
I
We
pushed
back
on
the
proponents
and
asked
them
to
create
even
more
robust
Community
access
to
the
Chelsea
Creek
and
they
ended
up
providing
all
of
that
and
more
and
so
just
for
context.
The
back
you
know
the
history
of
this
site
is
that
10
or
15
years
ago
there
was
a
proposal
to
have
a
dirty
Diesel
power
plant
on
this
site,
and
we
all
together
the
whole
Community,
fought
that
power
plant
and
to
turn
around
now
15
years
later
and
be
able
to
have
robust
Community
access
to
the
Chelsea.
Creek
is
really
wonderful.
I
We
definitely
have
some
concerns
with
the
property
we,
it
is
a
logistics
Center,
and
so
we
know
that
there
is
there's
truck
traffic.
That
will
be
there,
but
we
trust
that
the
city
and
the
proponents
will
work
together
to
address,
address
the
truck
traffic
situation
and
also
to
work
through
the
construction
schedule
so
that
it
doesn't
impact
the
nearby
Elementary
School.
We
sent
a
letter
a
few
months
back
when,
when
this
was
originally
in
front
of
you
and
I
hope
that
you
have
it.
I
There
are
several
recommendations:
I'd
like
to
just
State
our
support
for
the
project,
but
also
note,
as
Tom
was
saying
earlier
there.
They,
there
are
linkage
fees,
but
one
of
the
agreements
that
the
proponents
made
to
the
community
into
the
city
I
think
with
Carl
being
the
lead
was
they
agreed
to
pay
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
the
city
of
Chelsea
for
future
connections
to
the
Forbes
site?
Ironically,
we're
all
talking
about
the
forbesite
now
this
would
be
an
amazing
opportunity
for
future
connections
to
that
Waterfront
access.
I
We
don't
want
the
Waterfront
access
to
stop
or
just
be
book
bookend
at
295,
but
for
us
to
always
continue
to
create
those
Waterfront
accesses
all
along
our
Waterfront
and
so
that
money
should
be
included
as
a
condition
in
your
permit,
so
that
we
can
create
that
future
access,
but
we're
very,
very
supportive
of
the
robust
community,
the
access
and
the
designs
and
the
artwork
and
all
of
the
lighting
that
they
have
worked
on,
and
they
also
were
really
great
to
to
live
up
to
our
commitment
to
language,
Justice
and
all
of
our
public
meetings
and
hearings
and
all
of
the
written
materials
they
provided.
I
A
You
can't
go
anywhere
and
is
anyone
else
who
wishes
to
speak
on
this?
This
is
your
last
opportunity:
okay,
they're
being
none
I'm
going
to
close
the
public
portion
of
this
hearing
is

The

as
proposed

fee,
has
agreed
12.50
per
square
foot
for
over
25
000

and
that
would
be
in
lieu
of
the

Improvement
tax
fund
trust
fund
payment
allow
future

and
the

to

Okay.
The
next
case
is
2022-27
168
170,
Maverick,
Street,
Peter,
F,
Peter,
M,
tough.
It's
a
special
permit
and
variance
seeking
approval
for
the
construction
of
a
four
family
dwelling
structure
which
is
allowed
subject
to
the
issuance
of
a
special
permit,
which
does
not
meet
the
current
minimum
zoning
requirement
for
a
lot
area.
A
K
K
Good
evening
Madam
chair,
one
members
of
the
board,
Anthony
roster
here
on
behalf
of
the
petitioner
I,
do
have
David
Choi
who's.
The
architect
of
record
Mr
Tufts,
who
is
the
owner
of
the
property,
is
also
in
the
wait.
K
And
I
believe
you
do
have
the
renderings
on
the
buildings.
Essentially,
the
only
relief
that's
being
shot.
K
Bit
a
little
louder,
yeah,
let's
have
a
closer;
essentially,
the
only
relief
that's
being
shot
is
for
lot's
eyes,
there's
no
other
variances
setbacks.
If
you
look
at
the
dimensional
regulation,
shot
everything
the
dimensional
regular
shot
was
built
within
the
dimensional
regs,
so
the
current
site
was
existing
commercial
building.
That
was
pretty
much
condemned
over
the
years.
K
My
client
acquired
the
property
I
believe
he
may
have
come
before
the
board
in
the
past
regarding
a
larger
use
on
the
property,
after
speaking
with
Planning
Development,
and
also
some
of
the
city
councilmens
and
the
neighbors
we
downsized,
the
project
I
didn't
represent
them
then.
But
since
my
representation,
we
redesigned
the
project
to
be
something
that's
more
comparable
to
what's
in
the
neighborhood
in
the
amount
of
units
that
they
actually
wanted.
So
we
try
to
make
it
as
code
compliant
and
building
compliant
as
possible.
K
I
have
David
Choi
here
who
can
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
renderings
and
design
aspects
of
this,
but
it
will
consist
of
four
basically
four
units
townhouses
front
and
back
with
each
having
two
parking
spaces
for
each
unit,
compliant
one
inside
and
went
outside
correct,
David
and,
and
it
shows
you,
the
exterior
structure.
Everything
is
open
space
everything
meets
all
the
requirements
on
it.
The
only
thing
is
under
the
current
zoning,
it
doesn't
meet
the
dimensional
regs,
even
though
this
is
a
pre-existing
structure.
The
use
is
different.
K
K
He
does
a
lot
of
sight
work
through
municipalities,
but
after
looking
at
the
site
and
listening
to
the
neighborhood
and
what
they
wanted
to
see
there,
we
we
revamped
the
project
as
a
whole
to
make
it
now
for
residents,
dwellings
more
comparable
to
what's
in
the
neighborhood
as
a
whole
and
as
far
as
the
dimensional
regs
I
am
met
in
relation
to
the
setbacks,
trying
to
setbacks,
side
yard
set
back
elevation
height
far
Landscaping.
The
only
thing
we
can
meet
is
a
lot
size
because
that's
a
lot
size.
K
Okay,
so
and
that's
essentially
the
only
relief
and
the
renderings
were
basically
what
John
showed
you.
You
can
see
where
the
what
the
site
is
today
and
and
and
those
are
the
reliefs
so
I
think
we
everything
else
is
gone
because
we
we
changed
it
correct
John.
With
the
new
plans.
We
corrected
all
the
violations
that
there
was
only
one
violation
now,
and
it
was
for
the
lot
size
based
on
the
new
denial
letter.
C
Yes,
this
there's
two
lot
size
requirements.
One
is
the
minimum
lot
and
one
is
the
minimum
lot
error
per
unit.
So
that's
why
there's
two
variance
is
listed.
K
D
The
other
three
was
over
these
two
apartments.
On
the
other
side
correct
what
would
be
the
address
for
those
houses?
It
will
be
Maverick,
but
will
be
the
other
Street
David.
K
K
And
the
question
is
asked:
I
figured
to
be
brought
to
planning
all
snow
removal
will
be
removed
off
site.
It's
a
small
buildings,
four
units
can
be
maintained
and
if
Landscaping
is
all
going
to
be
enclosed,
so
they
have
their
own
yacht
space
that
we
did
that
specifically,
so
they
had
their
own
private
yacht.
A
Is
there
anyone
here
who
is
there
anybody
else
who
wants
to
ask
questions?
Okay,
this
is
the
public
hearing.
This
will
not
be
the
only
opportunity,
you'll
have
to
speak
on
it.
This
will
be
back
here
on
December
13th
and
it
will
go
to
the
planning
board
on
the
29th
of
November,
and
so
this
will
not
be
your
only
opportunity,
but
is
there
anyone
here
who
wishes
to
speak
on
this
there?
Being
none
I
am
not
close
in
the
hearing.
We
will
see
you
next
month.
A
Later
on,
2022
28
320
Riviera,
Beach,
Parkway,
gvlp,
Corporation,
DBA,
Vida
Verde
for
special
permits
to
partially
demolish
and
renovate
the
existing
two-story
structure,
proposing
a
retail
marijuana
facility
that
does
not
meet
current
zoning
requirements
for
use,
alteration
of
non-conforming
structure
and
number
and
location
of
off
street
parking
spaces.
Again.
This
is
the
first
time
we're
hearing
it.
Well,
it's
actually
the
third
time
we're
hearing
it,
but
it's
the
first
time
we're
hearing
it
under
this
number
and
it
will
be
going
to
the
the
back
here
on
December
13th
into
the
planning
department.
K
K
As
you
stated
correctly,
I
believe
this
was
on
in
the
past.
I
did
not
represent
him
in
the
past.
I
did
have
an
opportunity
to
sit
down
with
them
to
hear
concerns
that
the
board
may
have
had
in
the
past
and
also
neighbors
or
any
abutters
and
so
forth.
We
do
have
a
pretty
big
audience
here
today.
I
think
a
lot
of
the
people
here
at
this
peak
in
relation
to
this
project,
but,
more
importantly,
I,
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
differences.
K
K
If
I
may
so,
the
original
building
was
14
000
square
feet
of
a
structure
for
this
type
of
use
and
the
use
by
the
way
is
allowed
in
this
zoning
by
special
permit
by
Major
site
plan
approval,
which
will
be
going
through
that
process
through
planning
board
I
believe.
Actually,
the
planning
board
did
recommend
the
Prius
I
plan
approval
on
a
larger
structure,
but
the
structure
that's
being
proposed
now
in
the
use
to
building
is
only
going
to
be
about
5
500
square
feet.
So
it's
literally
cut
down
almost
a
third
65
percent.
K
They
went
back
to
the
drawing
board
and
saw
what
they
really
need
for
this
type
of
use
and
as
a
result
of
that,
they
actually
doubled
the
amount
of
landscaping
increased
the
amount
of
packing.
So
the
only
relief
as
far
as
by
special
permit
for
this
board
is
altering
a
non-conforming
structure,
a
pre-existing,
non-conformist
structure
by
special
permit,
and
that's
only
because
of
the
existing
setbacks
of
the
structure
as
a
whole.
We're
not
increasing
it.
K
It's
actually
one
of
the
few
times
when
you
go
for
a
special
appointment
to
increase
we're
actually
decreasing
it
as
a
whole,
so
where
we
created
more
Landscaping
more
parking
and
we
cut
the
use
by
65
percent
of
what
was
Prior,
the
use
is
allowed
by
special
permit
with
the
sport
and
the
other
items
were.
There
was
three
parking
spaces
that
were
short
of
so
we're
proposing
16
and
there's
19
required.
K
So
it's
de
minimis
amount
of
parking
relief,
that's
being
sought,
and
that,
and
also
there
was
two
out
of
three
pocket
spaces
of
compact
by
right.
One
of
them
is
relief
required
by
the
board
by
special
permit
and
that's
the
violations
for
the
purposes
of
zoning
just
so
they
have
that
on
the
record.
So
you
know
there's
actually
no
variances
whatsoever
being
required
from
this,
and
everything
has
shrunk
dramatically
in
size
and
to
work
with
Planning
Development
and
also
other
issues
that
were
addressed,
I,
guess
on
prior
presentations
and
concerns.
K
They
have
a
little
bit
on
this
project.
If
I
may
and
I
know,
this,
the
architect
is
running
late
and
the
civil
engineer
was
coming
on
a
plane,
but
I
want
to
just
talk
about
as
far
as
access
to
the
site,
so
it
has
an
atom,
Street
access
and
also
so,
as
you
can
see
from
over
here
loading
dock.
So
when
someone
comes
to
load
cannabis
or
what
have
you,
it
won't
be
visible
as
far
as
from
the
street,
the
loading
the
ACT
is
actually
inside
the
building
as
a
whole
and
what's.
K
Small,
the
small
trucks
because
they
don't
like
to
bring
a
large
quantity
at
a
given
time.
Sure
you
can
understand
why
insecurity
speaking
of
security,
they
will
have
on
staff
security
at
all
times
on
the
site,
to
monitor
parking,
to
monitor
traffic
and
to
monitor
safety
of
anybody
going
in
and
out
of
the
building,
and
so
all
the
loony
trucks
will
be
done
inside
the
building
at
hours
that
won't
affect
the
neighborhood.
They
only
do
it
usually
once
or
twice
a
week
at
most,
based
on
the
amount
of
usage
is
needed
and
so
forth.
K
But
I
want
to
note
that
so
as
far
as
the
neighborhoods
are
concerned,
everything
is
being
done
inside
the
building
and
I
know.
Sometimes
people
are
concerned
regarding
snow
removal
and
trash
trash
is
inside
dumpster
not
outside
that's
currently
existing.
Now
everything
is
inside
because
with
cannabis
you
have
to
be
very
secure
with
the
you
know,
what's
being
dumped,
especially
if
there's
any
proprietary
information,
because
it
could
be
medicinal
and
that
governs
on
the
hipper,
so
that's
all
being
done
inside
with
private
trash
pickup.
K
So,
as
far
as
the
city
is
concerned,
it's
not
affecting
the
the
city's
garbage
disposal
and
additional
fees.
Everything
is
being
done
on
site,
snowmobile,
same
thing
and
any
condition
down
the
road.
If
this
was
approved,
it
would
be
subject
to
all
snow
cannot
take
any
parking
spaces
away
from
of
the
use
or
block
any
parking
Lanes.
My
client,
one
of
my
clients,
actually
owns
the
structure
and
as
far
as
this
project
is
concerned,
they
own
numerous
super
responded
properties
and
they
manage
their
properties,
excellent
and
then
during
snow.
K
They
will
have
a
bobcat
on
site
when
they
have
snow,
storms
and
they're
going
to
remove
it
immediately
at
the
location.
So
you're
never
going
to
see
a
big
pile
of
snow
on
the
parkway
per
se.
Like
you
see
on
other
sites,
because
they
know
it's
a
quite
visible
site
and
that's
one
of
the
reasons
I
think
if
you
look
at
the
other
marijuana
special
permit
uses
that
are
allowed
in
the
city,
you
have
one
towards
King
Arthurs
in
that
range
down
there
and
you
have
another
one
on
Broadway.
K
This
side
here
is
pretty
much
an
anchor
site.
It's
on
the
parkway,
it's
quite
visible,
Everett
does
not
have
marijuana
dispensary
revered
this
on
have
marijuana,
dispensary
and
Chelsea.
This
is
like
a
border
point
for
all
those
three
cities
and
if
you
look
at
the
host
agreement,
which
was
negotiated
with
the
city,
the
city
gets
a
percentage
based
on
the
gross
sales
on
and
if
I'm
saying
that
incorrectly,
please
I
believe
the
host
agreement
is
in
the
packet.
K
So
this
could
be
one
of
those
sites
that
generates
quite
a
lot
of
money
from
the
city
and
they're
going
to
be
hiring
city.
Employees
I
think
it's
one
of
the
prerequisites
and
Gladys
Vega.
Who
is
the
president
of
this
establishment?
Who
was
actually
in
the
first
row.
This
will
be
the
first
site,
I
believe
that
hopefully
ever
permit
in
Chelsea
from
a
Chelsea
resident,
a
Chelsea,
Community
developer
and
something
from
Chelsea
as
a
whole.
K
I
think
all
the
other
sites
were
people
coming
in
to
Chelsea,
but
not
people
from
Chelsea
and
I
can
speak
about
Gladys,
but
I.
Think
most
of
the
members
of
the
board
know
who
she
is
and
what
she's
done
with
the
community
and
development
throughout
the
state
and
she's
currently
with
Leah
to
those
using
this
first
row,
she's
the
current
CFO
correct
of
the
of
this
establishment
they
own
another
site
together
in
Somerville,
which
went
through
all
the
approvals
for
cannabis
all
approved
by
the
state,
it's
actually
currently
under
construction.
K
So
this
is
a
development
team.
That's
quite
familiar
with
this
and
a
lot
of
these
cannabis
developments,
one
of
the
biggest
problems
that,
even
if
they
get
the
approval,
they
don't
have
the
financial
backing,
because
it's
not
like
you
can
go
to
a
bank
with
this,
because
a
lot
of
these
are
deregulated
regulated
by
the
bank,
because
marijuana
is
still
a
regulated
substance
under
the
federal
laws.
K
This
is
a
self-funded
project,
even
the
other
project
they
have
is
self-funded
so
they're,
backed
by
their
family,
real
estate,
development,
Mr,
pianderosi
and
other
investors,
so
they're
already
fully
grasp
going
forward.
The
building
itself
is
owned
by
a
trust,
who's
also
an
investor
on
it.
So
as
far
as
finances.
This
is
something
that
if
this
was
approved,
they're
they're
going
full
steam.
So
it's
not
going
to
be
like
other
projects
that
get
approved,
and
then
they
can't
get
the
backing
it's
already
there
and
they
have
a
development
team.
That's
quite
impressive!
K
If
you
look
at
it,
you
can
see
the
background
that
Maria,
who
is
also
the
CEO
who's,
also
present.
She
was
the
CEO
of
a
financial
institution
for
many
years,
so
they
have
a
background
that
I
can
talk
in
depth
about,
but
I
really
don't
want
to
drag
this
on
it
because
it's
the
first
meeting
but
I
want
to
talk
about
the
traffic.
If
I
could
because
I
think
the
biggest
concern
I
think
they
had
in
the
past
were
worried
about
the
location
and
traffic.
K
But
if
you
really
look
at
the
traffic
and
you
hear
from
Bob,
you
hear
yep
from
MDM
and
he'll
talk
about
it,
and
this
is
a
site
when
you
hear
it
and
you
see
the
traffic
report,
it's
actually
a
good
use.
It's
actually
better
than
what's
currently
was
currently
being
operated
there
and
he
could
talk
about
the
trap
for
studying
analysis
and
he
focuses
this
traffic
study.
Analysis
based
on
this
use
also
so
he's
quite
familiar
and
that's
what
they
specialize
in
and
I
like
to
have
Bob
talk
more
in
depth
about
that.
A
K
Correct
and
I
and
I
would
note,
as
this
board
is
aware,
I
know
the
city
ordinance
that
allowed
this
type
of
use
first
90
days
are
by
appointment
only
so
we
do
have
a
licensing
board
in
the
city
that
will
control
any
type
of
license,
which
is
this
so
there's
ever
any
use
or
an
issue
of
how
everything's
being
operated
there.
They
have
jurisdiction
to
do.
A
K
Yeah,
if
possible,
they
will
have
up
to
15.
Employees
are
needed,
but
they
shouldn't
have
more
than
eight
and
if
you
look
at
the
facility
the
size
of
it,
it
really
Plans
free.
But
you
have
to
be
ready
if
there
is
a
need
for
additional
employees
to
pack
and
what
have
you
for
the
goods
we
have
up
to
15,
that's
on
the
site.
M
Excuse
yourself
for
the
record
Robert
principal
with
MDM
Transportation
Consultants
were
based
in
Marlborough
Massachusetts.
M
What
we've
prepared
and
submitted
to
the
city
is
a
traffic
impact,
an
access
study
that
that
looks
and
quantifies
each
of
the
intersections
that
are
surrounding
the
property
and
they're
shown
here
in
red
dots.
The
most
prominent
of
those
include
the
Revere
Beach
Parkway
Route
16
intersection
at
Garfield
and
Webster
Avenue
right
here.
It
carries
more
than
4
000
Vehicles
an
hour
during
peak
hours.
M
That
said,
we've
looked
at
that
location.
We've
looked
at
both
ends
of
Adams
Street,
which
provide
primary
means
of
access
into
the
property,
including
the
historic
retail
use
russos,
as
well
as
the
adjoining
Street
at
Wesley
Street
we've
gone
out
and
and
looked
at
morning,
peak
hours,
commuter
hours
evening,
commuter
hours,
we've
looked
at
Saturday
midday
conditions
for
each
of
those
locations
and
to
understand
the
relative
impact
of
the
project
to
each
one
of
those
locations.
We've
actually
looked
at
how
facilities
like
this
operate
over
a
typical
hour.
M
Interestingly,
in
the
morning
this,
this
won't
even
be
open.
During
the
traditional
peak
hour
peak
hours,
it
will
have
an
opening
period,
I
believe
after
nine
o'clock
in
the
morning.
So,
unlike
the
existing
retail
use
of
the
property
which
actually
has
opened
during
those
hours,
it
will
actually
generate
very
little
if
any
traffic
activity
evening
peak
hours
commuter.
We
expect
that
there
would
be
between
50
and
60
vehicles
or
transactions
per
hour.
M
A
very
small
component
of
trips
would
be
employee
related
over
those
same
hours
so
relative
to
what's
been
there
as
a
retail
use
Russo's,
we
see
that
there's
very
little.
In
fact,
there
may
be
a
benefit
or
reduction
in
trips
in
the
morning.
There'll
be
a
very
slight
difference
about
10,
Peak
directional
trips
during
a
commuter
hour
at
night
and
on
a
weekend,
there'll
be
a
higher
level
of
activity,
but
nothing
that
would
be
substantial
or
consequential
to
traffic
operations.
M
about
10
percent
from
Garfield
Avenue
and
10
from
West,
Webster
Avenue.
So
taking
that
60
vehicle
trip
per
hour
number
and
applying
those
percentages,
we
see
that
over
the
course
of
a
typical
hour,
we're
talking
about
increases
of
10
to
20
trips
and
any
given
stretch
of
roadway
is
slightly
higher
in
this
Route
16
section
here,
because
you've
got
to
actually
use
Adams
Street
up
to
Wesley.
To
return
to
the
signal
relative
to
the
4
000
Vehicles
an
hour
that
currently
travel
through
that
intersection.
M
This
represents
less
than
one
half
of
one
percent
change.
This
is
not
a
consequential
change
in
terms
of
traffic
generation
or
impact,
but
importantly,
we
also
understand
the
importance
of
parking
under
today's
conditions.
Folks,
who
would
be
going
to
Russo's
would
have
very
limited
on-site
parking
that
will
be
vastly
improved
under
this
scenario.
M
Unlike
the
Russo's
operation,
they'll
be
far
less
dependents
if
any
on
parking
curbside
along
Adams
Street,
and
in
the
most
current
iteration
of
the
site
plan,
there
will
be
11
parking
spaces
in
a
main
parking
field
which
is
joining
Adams
Street
in
Route
16
in
that
corner
I,
it's
up
there
on
the
board,
so
those
11
parking
spaces,
in
our
estimation,
would
accommodate
even
the
Peak
Park
and
demand
for
this
facility.
M
When
it's
fully
operational,
we've
done
a
parking
analysis
that
that
demonstrates
that
the
site
has
the
added
benefit
of
allowing
up
to
five
employees
to
be
parked
on
the
site
as
well.
In
addition
to
the
employ
the
patrons
plus,
the
loading
all
right.
M
In
addition
to
that,
there's
a
significant
Improvement
to
the
driveway
along
Adams
Street
that
will
actually
be
pull,
be
pulled
away
from
Revere
Beach
Parkway.
It
will
be
curved
with
a
reconstruction
of
the
sidewalk
along
the
property
and
the
driveway
itself
would
be
24
feet
wide
standard
standard,
commercial
width
and
flanking
that
driveway
will
be
continued
curbside
parking
available
if
needed.
We
don't
anticipate
the
need
for
that,
but
it
would
could
additionally
support
Patron
use
if
necessary,
during
Peak
Peak
periods.
M
Finally,
I'll
say
that
the
analysis
that
we've
done
does
not
take
into
account
the
mode
shares
that
we
know
exist
in
and
around
the
site,
based
on
census
tract
data.
This
area
is
served
by
public
transportation.
It's
a
walkable
site
to
some
degree,
it's
a
bikeable
site
to
some
degree.
We
have
not
taken
any
credit
for
that.
In
our
estimates.
M
We've
presumed
that
this
site
operates
like
a
Suburban
site
right,
so
we've
taken
a
worst
case
scenario
in
our
view
and
estimated
not
only
that
in
material
impact
from
a
traffic
perspective,
but
the
parking
need
on
that
basis.
So
we're
confident
that
what's
being
proposed
here,
which
is
substantially
more
parking
than
what
was
originally
contemplated
for
the
use,
will
be
adequate
to
serve
the
peak
activity
for
the
facility.
M
There
are
incentives
that
the
proponent
is
offering
its
own
employees
for
parking
off-site,
financially,
a
stipend
of
sorts
so
to
the
extent
employees
need
to
park
off-site
or
want
to
carpool
together
and
park
at
a
common
location,
there'll
be
an
incentive
offered
by
the
proponent.
For
that
to
happen,
they'll
pay
for
the
parking
they
will
also
fully
fund
MBTA
passes
for
the
employees
of
the
use
to
incentivize
the
use
of
public
transportation.
M
In
addition,
so
there
are
a
number
of
those
types
of
incentives
we
think
will
go
above
and
beyond
and
reducing
the
need
for
parking
on
the
site
and,
finally,
we'll
also
notice
that
the
proponent
is
committed
to
monitoring
the
use
at
opening
and
on
a
continual
basis,
to
make
sure
that,
what's
being
proposed
by
way
of
parking,
Supply
operates
appropriately
and
consistently.
The
last
thing
they
want
is
for
it
not
to
work
properly
and
that
will
be
actively
managed
by
the
proponent
and
that's
not
uncommon,
for
facilities
like
this
in
in
the
Commonwealth.
N
M
There
is
no
designated
off-site
parking
location.
The
four
plus
one,
the
five
spaces
that
are
available
would
accommodate
the
needs
of
of
the
employees.
We
believe
who
need
to
arrive
in
a
single
vehicle,
some
of
which
will
probably
have
an
additional
employee
with
them
as
part
of
a
commute
to
the
to
the
facility.
In
the
earlier
application
materials,
there
was
some
thought
of
leasing
nearby
parking
through
Arrangements.
That
is
not
something
that
is
proposed
at
this
point.
M
Nor
do
we
feel
necessary,
based
on
the
shifts,
if
you
will,
for
the
employees
that
would
be
on
the
property
and
the
likelihood
that
employees
will
not
only
be
incentivized
to
find
parking
that
that
the
proponent
will
pay
for,
but
also
either
to
use
public
transportation,
no
vehicle
or
bike
or
or
carpool.
Well,.
C
K
K
So
one
of
the
benefits
here
is
that
if
we
hire
a
Chelsea
residents
at
a
premium
wage,
if
you
look
at
the
host
agreement,
it
talks
about
that
and
you
got
five
Chelsea
residents
pretty
much
get
to
know
each
other
and
they
decide
Hey.
Listen,
let's
take
a
let's
go
together,
they
would
get
increased
wages
as
a
result
of
that.
So
that's
what
the
incentive
program
is.
K
So
literally,
we
have
those
extra
spots
as
overage
per
se,
not
essentially
that
we
want
the
five
people
to
park
there,
we're
going
to
incentivize
that
if
we
hire
Chelsea
residents
and
they
work
on
the
incentive
program
that
they
would
come
to
Street
needs
at
home,
correct
it
could
be
at
home.
It
could
be
a
park
in
someone's
house
or
nearby.
What
have
you
but
that's
their
goal.
Is
that
they
do
that
together,
they
all
benefit
from
that.
That
was
just
I
understand
what
John
was
saying
and
I
just
wanted
to
clear
that
up.
D
K
J
K
D
Okay,
what's
the
size
of
those
four
parking
spots,
what's
the
size?
Is
it
now
from
the
draw
when
it
seems
to
be
like
you
know,
not
the
Nai
buy
there
so.
K
A
D
D
I
understand
because
from
here
it
says
there
are
not
enough
with
the
measurements.
K
Okay,
okay,
I
apologize,
I'm,
not
sure.
If
you
heard
me
initially
out
of
the
16
spots,
13
of
them
meet
the
dimensional
region,
nine
by
eighteen.
Two
you
can
meet
the
compact
space
requirement
under
this
Chelsea
ordinance
and
the
third
one
requires
relief
on
the
ordinance
I.
Think
it's
eight
by
eight
by
eighteen
I
believe
so
they
all
meet
the
requirements
only
one
of
them.
The
compact
relief
is
sought
by
special
apartment,
so
they
all
beat
the
requirements
in
the
Chelsea
ordinance.
K
D
K
K
K
This
goes
no,
if
no
there's
no
church
on
the
second
floor,
the
second
floor
will
be
part
of
any
usage
whatsoever.
In
fact,
if
you
read
the
actual
decision,
the
denial
letter
specifically
states
that
any
use
on
the
second
floor
would
have
to
go
before
this
board.
It
actually
states
that,
right
in
the
denial
letter.
D
K
Will
monitorize
it
this?
We
have
a
separate
entrance.
If
you
look
at
the
architectural
drawings,
then
the
whole
second
floor.
They
have
a
separate,
egress,
totally
separate
entrance
from
us.
So
so
we
have
our
own
entrance
in
egress
and
they
have
that
second
voice
its
own
entrance
in
egress
and
again
this
is
a
license.
It
will
be
a
licensed
site,
so
be
monitored
by
the
city
of
Chelsea
licensing
board
and
also
the
inspectional
services,
and
certainly
when
you're
doing
this
type
of
run,
operation
you're
not
going
to
try
to
put
anything
up
there.
K
Will
it
affect
this
use.
So
we
stated
already
and
I
believe
in
the
denial
letter
the
commissioner
who's.
Also,
the
zoning
enforcement
officer
stated
specifically
in
the
denial
that
are
any
use
on
the
second
floor
would
have
to
go
before
this
board.
You
would
have
jurisdiction
now
that
you
would
have
control
of
that
yeah.
K
Can't
they
can
come
at
any
time,
it's
the
same
as
if
you
have
other
dispensaries,
if
they're
going
upstairs
and
they're
using
storage
upstairs
you
can
do
it.
This
is
easily
a
more
monitored
than
other
dispensaries
that
have
been
approved
in
Chelsea,
because
one
of
them
is
joining
them
all
and
they
could
have
space
in
other
spaces
that
anybody
can
do
this.
We
don't
have
as
access
or
control
to
it.
We
have
our
own
entrance
a
whole
us,
we
don't
own
it
we're
not
leasing
that.
K
K
Floor,
no,
no
legal
access,
we
have
our
own
entrance
and
I
would
state
that
we're
not
leasing
this
space
and
that's
going
to
be
something
that's
going
to
be
filed.
The
lease
is
filed
with
the
city.
The
lease
is
filed
with
the
state
and
I,
don't
think
anybody's
going
to
perjure
themselves
and
risk
losing
their
license
by
operating
a
second
floor
space
for
any
type
of
use.
K
L
A
O
K
The
plan
the
size
of
the
building,
the
Landscaping,
everything
like
that
that's
been
altered,
which
we
just
talked
about,
but
as
far
as
the
officers,
the
financial
report,
the
traffic
analysis,
traffic
analysis
changed
a
little
bit
because
of
the
amount
of
parking
space
that's
being
provided
now
than
what
was
previously
provided
on
the
prior
proceedings.
Okay,
I'm,
sorry.
R
I
R
R
Okay
and
then
they're
going
to
be
managing
the
common
areas,
yeah.
Q
R
They're
taking
over
that
site
great
and
then
regarding
the
traffic.
So
with
the
study
that
you
did,
what
are
your
recommendations
for
people
that
visit
the
site
with
respect
to
entering
and
exiting
the
building.
C
R
M
The
we
haven't
actually
made
specific
recommendations,
but
I'll
point
out
that
the
driveway
by
being
designed
65
feet
distant
from
Route
16,
actually
allows
that
upper
end
of
Adam
Street
to
function
quite
well
as
a
two-way
frankly,
so
you
can
get
to
or
from
that
parking
lot
from
the
Route
16
side
entirely
to
the
left
of
the
driveway
on
this
there'll
be
parking
availability
curbside
for
at
least
four
vehicles
above
and
beyond
any
demands
that
are
created
within
the
lot
itself,
so
we're
not
proposing
to
do
anything
and
the
left
side
or
upper
side
of
Adams
Street.
M
You
know
we
understand
that.
There's
a
left
turn
restriction
there
today,
there's
stanchions.
We've
heard
that
through
prior
testimony,
the
fact
that
we're
improving
accessibility
to
the
site
and
providing
on-site
parking
that
doesn't
doesn't
currently
exist
and
and
orienting
that
traffic
to
Route
16
is
going
to
be
a
vast
improvement.
In
our
opinion,.
A
Thank
you
any
other
questions.
Okay,
I'm,
gonna
I
know
there
are
a
number
of
people
here
to
speak
on
this.
This
is
not
gonna.
Did
you
want
to
see
something?
Okay,
this
is
not
the
only
opportunity.
One
will
have
to
speak,
but
I'm
going
to
ask
people
to
limit
their
initial
testimony
to
five
minutes,
to
give
everybody
a
chance
to
talk,
and
then,
if,
after
that,
if
you
have
questions
that
haven't
been
addressed
by
other
people,
you
can
speak
again
so
who
would
like
to
speak?
Is
there
anybody
who
wish
to
speak
in
this
ma'am?
N
Valid
to
take
all
that,
the
applicants
engineer
is
saying
I
question
a
lot
of
those
assumptions
and
conclusions.
I
do
think
the
traffic
is
is
seriously
going
to
increase.
It
is
a
very
narrow,
two-way
street.
We
have
problems
with
parking
traffic
access
for
emergency
vehicles.
It's
happened
to
one
of
my
tenants.
N
With
this
new
plan,
the
sidewalks
are
going
to
now
be
enlarged,
to
be
concrete,
with
granite
curbs,
which
means
the
cars
will
no
longer
be
parking
right
up
against
the
building
like
they
do
now.
That
will
make
the
street
narrower
I
pull
out
of
my
apartment
building.
Sometimes
it
takes
me,
like
eight
point,
turn
I
don't
understand.
Last
meeting
it
was
I
was
told,
10
employees
and
I
would
say
might
be
15.
N
I,
I
I,
don't
know
where
they're
going
to
park
I
see
that
they've
increased
parking,
I
have
a
question
about
the
easement
parking.
I,
don't
know,
I,
don't
see
two
spaces
per
unit
for
that
house.
It's
there,
which
I
am
required
to
have
in
my
build
I
question
the
lack
of
a
dumpster
space
I'm
required
to
have
one
I,
don't
know
if
they
will
be.
N
I
also,
have
you
know
big
concerns
about
mostly
emergency
vehicles.
Also,
we
have
I
know
it's
a
marijuana
facility
I
understand
that
it's
primarily
medical
marijuana,
but
in
my
building
we
have
a
small
little
vestibule.
We
have
the
mailboxes
and
doorbells
are
and
we've
had
drug
addicts
go
in
that
vestibule
and
do
drugs
and
urinate
and
just
do
everything
before
we
catch
them.
I
I
I
have
problems
with
a
drug
facility
across
the
street.
From
me
we
have
children
and
elderly
in
that
building.
N
T
It's
important
also
to
highlight
that
this
community
voted
overwhelmingly
82
percent
back
in
2016
in
favor
of
recreational
marijuana.
So
when
I
see
a
local
resident
applying
for
this
I
can't
trust
anyone
better
than
her
I
can't
trust
anyone
better
than
Gladys
Vega.
Who
has
been
a
woman
that
follows
Rules
by
the
book
who
has
been
leading
as
an
activist
in
this
community
but
above
all,
who
created
a
food
pantry
out
of
nickels
and
dimes
right,
and
that
was
something
that
was
very
successful.
I
can't
think
of
someone
better
than
running
a
cannabis.
T
Dispensary,
that's
going
to
generate
thousands
of
dollars
in
taxes,
but,
above
all,
it's
going
to
be
tax
money.
That's
going
to
come
back
to
our
community
and
I'm
sure
that
she's
going
to
be
Innovative
and
she
will
be
the
person
who
will
be
able
to
push
for
that
money
to
be
invested
in
our
community.
So
I
am
fully
in
support
of
this
I
understand
that
there's
many
technicalities
that
need
to
be
answered
and
the
many
technicalities
that
need
to
be
dealt
with,
but
I,
ask
you
and
I
commend
you
for
your
work.
T
L
No
I
don't
have
a
question
to
the
applicant
with
regards
to
Mr
Rossi,
okay.
L
You
the
first
go
around
with
this
and,
unfortunately
I
think
anybody
in
the
city
knows
Gladys
and
all
the
great
work
she
has
been
done.
She's
done
phenomenal
work
for
the
city,
but
what
you're
here
today
is
for
particulars
relative
to
body
of
laws
in
the
city,
so
if
we
can
refrain
from
all
the
greatness
of
the
people,
because
we
know
how
great
they
are,
if
we
just
stick
with
what
we're
here
for
because
we
have
several
other
cases
here-
and
there
are
people
waiting
to
be
heard.
Thank.
K
You
and
I
will
state
that
if
you
heard
my
presentation
as
much
as
I
love
Gladys,
it
was
very
limited
on
Gladys
who's,
more
of
the
issues
before
this
board
and
that's
what
I
dealt
with
as
far
as
with
a
redesign
and
comments
and
concerns
that
I
was
told
on
the
prior
proceeding
with
additional
parking
and
Landscaping
and
so
forth
and
I
will
ask
people
that
are
members
of
the
public
here
that
are
here
to
speak
in
favor
of
it
and
to
limit
it.
A
L
No,
your
presentation
was
excellent.
Thank
you
just
that
sometimes
people
like
to
be
a
little
more
vocal
I
get
it,
and
we
know
how
great
they
are
that
people
that
are
going
to
run
this
organization,
the
needs
of
the
city,
but
we
have
laws,
and
this
is
what
we're
trying
to
do
so.
Those
people
that
do
want
to
say
something.
If
you
sort
of
guide
so.
A
We
will
accept
as
given
that
Gladys
has
been
a
great
support
for
the
city,
so
I,
don't
I,
don't
want
to
diminish
that
at
all,
so
I
mean
I,
don't
want
to
diminish
that
all
in
so
I
understand,
thank
you,
but
we
really
want
to
hear
about
the
people's
thoughts
about
the
project
who
would
like
to
speak
next
on
this.
Please
come
in
give
your
name
and
address.
Please
yeah.
P
I
will
limit
my
comments
because
some
of
my
colleagues
have
already
shared,
but
I
want
to
share
that.
You
know
I've
been
here
before
talking
for
on
in
support
of
other
projects
who
are
being
proposed
by
local
agencies.
Local
nonprofits,
local
leaders
and
I
just
want
to
emphasize
that
when
I
hear
the
questions
that
came
up
I
believe
his
name
is
yes.
P
I
really
appreciate
those
questions.
Those
are
the
types
of
questions
that
we
need
to
be
asking
when
we
are
having
conversations
about
new
development
because
they
really
do
impact
our
community.
What
has
happened
in
that
property?
What
are
we
going
to
see
happen
in
that
property?
How
much
can
we
trust
that
this
new
developer
is
going
to
stick
by
their
word
right,
and
so,
when
I
come
up
here,
I
evaluate
thoroughly
what
I've
seen
in
my
community?
You
know
the
substance.
Abuse
is
through
the
roof.
P
Yes,
it
is,
but
what
are
property
managers
doing
to
control
that
I
I
get
resident
residents?
Calling
me
all
the
time,
because
property
managers
also
have
their
due
diligence
to
support
in
getting
families
re
connected
to
resources
connecting
to
their
local
police
department,
trying
to
get
that
person's
support,
but
also
maintaining
that
property
at
its
best
at
its
best
state,
because
it
does
impact
the
Greater
Community
at
the
same
time,
I
think
that
that
only
comes
from
local
developers.
P
It
only
comes
from
people
who
take
pride
in
this
community
people
who
have
something
to
lose
if
that
property
is
not
ran
correctly
and
I.
Think
this
is
a
project
that
we
can
guarantee
that
if
the
property
is
not
being
ran
correctly,
the
person
in
charge
of
that
of
that
of
this
project
and
the
person
who
has
put
their
name
on
this
project
throughout
all
the
hearings.
You
know
you
guys
have
heard
Gladys
Gladys
Vega.
P
These
are
people
who
will
go
above
and
beyond
to
make
sure
that
does
not
happen,
which
is
something
we
won't
have
if
it's
in
outside
entity,
that's
coming
in
and
just
generating
profit,
and
so
I
do
want
to
make
sure
and
I
want
to
also
thank
you
for
those
questions
that
were
me,
because
we
have
to
make
these
evaluations
what
has
worked
in
this
area.
P
What
could
work
in
this
area
and
who
are
we
allowing
to
continue
to
develop
in
these
areas
of
our
community,
whether
it's
this
property
or
future
properties
that
come
in
front
of
you?
You
will
see
me
here
when
I
hear
of
a
local
agency,
local,
non-profit
local
leader,
that
I
know
has
been
there
rolled
up
their
sleeves
and
worked
hard
to
create
Chelsea
to
what
it
is
today,
because
I
trust
those
people
to
continue
to
make
Chelsea
Thrive.
Thank
you.
A
I
Again,
Roseanne
bongiovanni,
seven
Bell
Street
so
I'm
here
as
a
neighbor
to
this
development
and
I
have
to
give
you
some
background
that
I
don't
love.
You
know
cannabis
facilities
and
I
was
on
the
licensing
commission
and
hated
when
they
came
in
front
of
us,
because
I
felt
like
this
wasn't
the
future
that
we
wanted
for
the
city.
I
But
as
councilor
Garcia
said,
we
voted
in
favor
of
this
in
2016.,
and
so
whether
we
like
it
or
not,
they're
coming
to
our
city
and
I
think
what's
really
important
for
us
to
consider
is
that
we
could
give
these
licenses
to
outside
folks
that
come
in
and
get
rich
off
the
backs
of
folks
in
Chelsea,
or
we
can
value
the
people
who
live
here.
Who've
worked
here,
who
love
this
community
and
have
a
history
of
working
with
the
community,
so
I
am
in
support
of
this
project
and
I.
I
I
know
that
there
are
a
number
of
questions
that
came
up,
including
parking
and
traffic
and
those
are
real
concerns
and
I
applaud
the
proponents
for
working
through
those
challenges
and
those
concerns
I
do
want
to
say.
One
thing
is
that
you
know
there
was
a
concern
from
a
resident
or
business
owner
that
was
nearby
about
drug
use.
Drug
use
is
rampant
in
our
community
and
and
that's
opioids
I,
don't
think
it's
marijuana,
I
think
that's
opioids
and
we
need
to
address
the
opioid
concern.
I
But
if
there's
one
person
I
have
faith
in
this
community
will
run
her
business
with
so
much
dignity
and
respect
and
accountability
and
responsibility.
It's
the
proponent
who's
proposing
this
tonight,
because
she
she
knows
what
it's,
what
what
the
effects
are
of
drug
use
in
our
community
and
I,
know
and
trust
that
she
will
run
this
business
perfectly
and
that
in
three
or
four
years
time,
we'll
look
back
and
say
this.
You
know
we
got
it
right.
I
I
also
want
to
say
that
my
parents
were
opposed
to
the
Cannabis
facility
on
Webster
Ave
when
that
was
being
proposed
and
I
was
on
licensing
and
so
I
didn't
say
anything
I
think
I
with
withdrew
from
that
process,
but
now
that
it's
there
there
are
no
problems
right.
There's
not
a
lot
of
traffic.
There's
security
outside
I
run
by
it
all
the
time,
walk
by
it
I'm
there
there
are
no
concerns.
I
I
think
we
have
preconceived
notions
that
these
facilities
are
going
to
be
negative
influences
in
our
community
and
I
would
argue
that
the
liquor
stores
and
the
bars
that
we're
permitting
are
far
worse
than
these
facilities,
and
so
I
would
encourage
you
to
work
through
the
logistical
concerns,
but
to
support
this
project.
Thank.
A
You
all
right,
I'm
out,
is
there
anyone
else
who
wishes
to
speak
on
this
again?
There
will
be
others
who
you
have
an
opportunity
to
come
back
in
December
Anthony.
K
We've
had
some
concern
and
butter
you
but
I
wanted.
I
know
you
emphasize
that
there
is
a
dumpster
and
the
dumpster
is
inside
the
building.
I
know
she
heard
that,
but
I
want
to
just
saw.
The
record
would
hear
that
and
one
of
her
concerns
is
by
doing
the
sidewalk
and
so
forth,
which
allow
the
entry
to
come
in.
She
was
concerned
that
now
cars
parked
on
the
street,
she
does
an
eight-point
turn.
K
That
would
never
happen
again
because
we're
going
to
have
Security
on
site
and
now
they
can
park
inside
they
do
all
inside
the
parking
lot.
In
fact,
by
having
this
type
of
use
here,
it
will
alleviate
all
that
pocket
to
take
place.
That's
currently
being
done
that
they
park
on
the
curbing.
So
this
type
of
use
actually
would
alleviate
that
issue
down
the
road,
and
then
there
was
one
more
thing
we
got
in
the
easements
and
I
and
I
could
talk
about
the
structure
beside
it
that
easement
was
already
purchased
for
the
owner.
K
It
runs
with
the
land,
it
does
not
affect
the
grandfathered
use
that
that
abutting
property-
we
don't
own
the
property
and
I,
don't
believe
the
current
owner
of
the
building
owns
the
property.
It
was
just
four
easement
spaces
that
went
down
the
road
with
Russo's
tux,
legal
and
Zoning
enforcement
officer
Michael.
K
The
commissioner
is
already
effectuated
that
those
four
spaces
go
with
this
property,
so
I
just
want
to
clear
those
items
up
that
she
might
not
be
aware
of,
but
I
do
want
to
clarify
that
the
biggest
concern
she
has
now
that
she
mentioned
won't
be
taking
place,
especially
if
there's
drug
use
taking
place
in
the
neighborhood
you're
gonna
have
security.
You
know
on
site
with
a
well-lit
building
which,
if
you
walk
by
the
area,
now
it's
not
a
well-load
building
and
we're
taking
the
building
back
with
green
space
and
so
forth.
K
A
A
Okay,
so
here's
I
have
a
question
so
Santa
pair
she's
hugging
people,
so
so
with
this,
so
Joan
is
not
here
so
I'm
gonna
ask
so
we
need
four
out
of
five
votes
so
to
get.
We
need
at
least
four
votes
to
get
to
pass.
Anything
Joan
is
not
here
and
Marilyn
cannot
can't
speak
on
this
one.
So
our
I'm
going
to
ask
her
if
she's
comfortable
with
that.
But
are
you
guys
I'm
sort
of
taking
a
straw
poll?
Are
you
guys,
comfortable
with
that?
O
J
A
I
P
A
C
A
A
I
Just
updated
the
information
or
details
on
signs
right.
A
A
L
A
A
A
A
U
Beach
Street
in
Malden.
Thank
you
so
I'm
only
here,
I'm
just
being
on
behalf
of
the
owner,
so
he
started
this
project.
It's
he.
He
started
this
project
with
another
contractor
and
the
contractor
told
him
that
he
didn't
need
a
permit
to
do
this
work,
so
he
assumed
that
was
correct.
He
allowed
him
to
do.
The
work
to
sit
in
the
building
department
came
down,
told
him
that
he
had
to
stop
and
pull
a
permit.
U
Mario
Martin,
which
is
the
new
contract,
has
taken
over
the
project.
He
addressed
that
issue
by
applying,
but
the
building
department
told
him
that
he
has
to
come
in
front
of
the
board
and
at
least
let's
try
to
get
the
answer
from
you
guys,
or
at
least
approve
from
you
guys
to
allow
do
this
podcast.
U
U
C
U
Right,
in
any
event,
so
basically
the
way
he
wants
to
propose
is
due
to
Tandem
parking
space
and
that
and
that
the
waste
is
designed,
and
he
cannot
go
any
further
back
because
it
shrink
towards
the
back.
Although
he
has
plenty
of
space
in.
U
U
Now,
as
how
you
see
the
rectangle
spaces
there,
that's
nine
by
eighteen,
that's
where
the
proposed
parking
space
would
be
for
the
two
vehicles
towards
the
back.
He
cannot
go
any
further
back
because
it
starts
shrinking
towards
it'll
be
narrower.
So
this.
L
If,
unfortunately,
if
you
just
speak
into
the
microphone
rather
than
looking
at.
A
U
Tours
are
back
in
the
building
is
harder
to
park
any
Vehicles
because
of
shrinks,
and
although
he
has
plenty
plenty
of
parking,
space
I
mean
space
in
the
back,
but
there's
no
way
to
pull
in
or
pull
out.
So
basically,
we're
asking
for
you
guys
to
grant
us
permission
to
at
least
do
the
two
tandem
at
the
minimum.
So.
A
A
U
U
Well,
that's:
what's
there
right
now
there
was
there
was
dirt
higher
and
apparently
the
the
contractor
that
started
doing
the
work
brother
to
that
level.
Okay,.
A
We
have
so
just
you
know
and
we're
not
going
to
be
deciding
to
stay,
but
curb
Cuts.
There
are
requirements
about
when
you
have
a
curb
cut,
how
it's
got
to
be,
and
John
will
walk
through
that,
how
it
has
to
be
flat
and
there's
all
kinds
of
little
requirements
on
it.
When
we
really
agree
to
a
curb
cut.
A
A
U
A
D
U
Only
thing
he
uses
it
for
right
now
is
for
storage,
has
tools,
the
storage.
U
U
U
I
mean
right
now,
as
we
stand,
he
is
using
the
space
as
a
parking,
but
only
one
car
is
there
right
now
and
he
actually
wants
to
Legalize
It
by
finishing
and
once
the
permit
is
granted
he's
going
to
be
able
to
park
the
two
cars
that
he's
requesting
for.
D
C
I
tried
to
get
onto
Google
Maps
to
see
what
it
looked
like,
but
I
can't
get
access
to
the
website
here.
So
I
did
not
I'll
have
to
check
that
after
the
meeting
before
the
next
meeting.
A
Comment
on
this
there
being
none,
this
will
not
close
the
public
portion
of
the
hearing.
We
will
keep
it
open.
You
need
to
come
back
here
on
the
13th
of
December
into
the
planning
board
on
the
29th
of
November,
and
the
planning
board
meets
here
in
this
room
as
well.
Okay,
thank
you.
Next
2022
31,
13,
Bell,
Street,
Joseph
and
Marion
Carroll
for
special
permit
seeking
approval
for
the
construction
of
a
shed
which
does
not
meet
the
minimum
side,
yard
setbacks.
A
A
Sorry,
just
if
somebody
doesn't
need
translation,
we
can
let
her
go
home,
so
you
have
to
come
back
here
on
the
13th
of
December
and
you
have
to
go
to
the
planning
board
on
the
because
it's
a
special
permit.
It
has
to
go
to
the
planning
board
on
November
29th,
so
we
won't
be
deciding
today.
We
can't
decide
it
today.
A
V
V
A
V
And
I
said
the
shed's
going
to
be
built
by
a
reputable
company.
That's
one
of
the
biggest
best
reputable
countries
in
the
area.
It's
it's
going
to
be
aesthetically!
It's
going
to
look
nice!
It's
going
to
be
sighted!
Like
the
house,
it's
not
going
to
be
something!
That's
just
going
to
be
thrown
up
there
and
and.
C
C
C
Just
for
a
history,
you
may
recall
the
the
the
carols
were
here
a
couple
months
ago,
looking
for
Relief,
this
part
of
this
parcel
was
actually
part
of
the
519
Washington
Ave
his
sister
decades
ago.
They
had
given
the
land
over
here
to
be
allowed
to
be
used
for
a
driveway.
The
board
gave
the
relief
required
to
allow
it
to
be
absorbed
into
the
parcel.
It
will
be
going
to
the
planning
board
on
November
29th,
to
sign
in
our
plan,
to
make
it
official
and
then.
V
The
area
where
the
shed's
going
and
on
the
other
side
of
the
fence,
it's
an
area,
that's
not
used,
and
on
the
back,
it's
six
feet
from
The
Back
Fence
in
that
area
is
just
for
packing
this.
So.
S
V
V
P
V
Expensive
project
so
right
right
now,
where
it's
it's
like
a
perfect
base
for
the
sit
on,
and
you
know
it's
and
it's
not
that
big!
You
know.
Okay,.
A
I
Seven
Bell
Street
I
live
across
the
street
from
the
carols
they're
awesome,
neighbors,
totally
responsible,
great
people.
You
should
give
them
the
shed
they're
amazing
great.
This
shed
won't
impact
any
anybody
in
on
our
street
or
the
opposite.
Street.
I
A
A
W
W
Excuse
me,
property
right
now,
again,
has
the
convenience
store
and
a
another
unit
about
1900
square
feet
right
now.
The
property
is
in
this
benefit
for
many
reasons.
There's
parking
issues
because
there's
cars
coming
in
and
out
there's
a
lot
of
traffic
trash.
A
lot
of
noise
complaints
from
Neighbors
the
neighborhood
right
now
is
currently
sown
for
a
one
and
a
two
unit
properties
and
right
now.
This
Supermarket
is
a
this
benefit
to
everyone,
so
we
want
to
put
it
as
a
two
unit.
C
A
W
R
A
F
W
A
S
S
A
A
Because
we
I
mean
one
of
the
things
that
we
would
probably
want
to
look
at
one
of
the
things
you
know.
If
you're
not
going
to
have
this
bright,
green
lime,
green
thing
there
would
you
put
on
putting
any
plants
stuff
like
that,
you
know
we
want
John
would
usually
the
planning
department
would
want
to
look
at
some
kind
of
greenery
in
the
front
that
kind
of
stuff.
If
you're
going
to
change
Windows,
we
need
to
know
that.
Okay,
so
you
know,
we
clearly
I
mean.
S
A
C
Board
usually
puts
a
condition
of
design
review
right,
which
means
that
assigned
to
me
to
make
sure
that
the
building
fits
in
with
the
neighborhood
and
looks
residential
Etc.
