8.8.2022 Planning Board Work Session
A
B
B
Okay,
so
again,
the
the
core
purpose
of
these
Building
height
amendments
is
really
to.
B
Some
buildings
artificially
adding
height
to
the
to
the
property,
because
the
existing
height.
B
Property
so
after
the
the
land
is
developed,
the
the
building
height
is
actually
measured
off.
B
B
B
B
B
B
Height
map
and
making
some
changes
to
the
map
itself,
the
the
second
is
corner
or
through
lots.
B
B
B
Foundry
place
and
also
adding
both
sides
of
a
street
like
Siri
Street.
That's
a
good
example
of
a.
B
B
A
series
of
examples
that
I
can
present,
if
you
need
it
as
part
of
the
discussion
that
I'm
not.
B
Going
to
go
through
proactively
I'll
wait
for
the
questions.
The
second
thing
we're
doing
is.
B
So
this
map,
here
that
you
saw
in
the
package
I
think
it
was
exhibit
one.
This
is
all
the
proposed.
B
B
B
B
B
Street
that
you
can
see
on
this
map,
everything
else
is
either
Civic
or
Municipal.
So
all.
B
These
lines
are
new
and
the
only
thing
that's
modified
is
the
Haven
Court
High
Street
section.
B
B
B
Hanover
Street,
so
there's
no
possibility
of
this
amendment
altering
the
existing
development.
B
So
those
were
the
only
two
changes
from
five
or
six
weeks
ago
on
this
map.
Again
South
Church.
B
Going
up
10
feet
to
the
orange
line
to
be
consistent
with
the
North
Church
and
St
John's.
B
Used
to
be
a
much
taller
building,
this
is
the
parking
garage.
This
is
Foundry
place,
and
this
is.
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
Dsa,
just
for
everybody's
benefit,
DSA
had
had
all
of
this
property
when
we
purchased.
B
B
Ferguson,
thank
you
so
when
the
building
height
map
was
created
for
the
north
end
in.
B
Building
height
standard
I'll
come
back
to
answer
your
question
in
just
a
second
Jim.
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
Post-Closure
agreement
with
the
Rogers
folks,
we
are
we're
getting
that
and
they've
they've.
B
B
B
B
A
A
A
A
B
B
Okay,
anything
else
thanks,
so
I
have
four
examples
of
each
of
these
areas
that
we've.
B
But
series
Street
the
Civic
and
Municipal
map
changes
and
High
Street
and
Haven
Court.
B
B
So
I
think
that
concludes
part
one.
And
if
yes,
if
you
don't
mind
Mr
chairman,
so
there.
D
D
D
D
B
B
With
and
I
think,
we've
all
learned
a
lot
from
Congress
Street.
Those
of
you
that
are
here.
B
B
B
Through
Lots,
so
that's
part
of
the
change
in
part
two
and
just
tweaking
the
definitions.
B
Is
a
a
statement
almost
a
disclaimer
in
the
code
that
makes
it
very
clear
to
the
reader,
the.
B
B
B
Of
interpretations
well
I've
been
here
for
11
years
and
before
as
to
whether
the
HTC
can
tell.
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
A
C
C
B
If
you're
in
the
historic
district
right,
the
HDC
is
the
only
governing
board
that
has
any.
C
C
C
B
B
B
A
A
A
A
C
B
B
B
Imperfect
again,
Maps
right,
okay,
any
other
questions
on
that.
One.
B
Section
of
the
code
right
here
we
just
talked
about
how
you
apportion
Building
height
on.
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
Put
some
general
guard
rails
on
Civic
properties,
they
have
no
Building
height
cap.
B
B
B
And
they
went
to
the
board
of
adjustment
I'm,
not
sure
we
fully
knew
at
the
time
they
went
that.
B
Maybe
they
didn't
need
to
go
because
there's
no
standards,
it
seemed
so
surprising
to
us.
B
B
A
map
in
here,
but
it's
like
the
Warner
house,
the
the
John
Paul,
Jones
and
and
and
others
Langdon.
B
They
they
need
to
be
owned
by
a
non-profit,
and
they
need
to
be
generally
open
to
the
general.
B
Public!
That's
why
the
Athenaeum
is
not
here,
the
doors
are
locked
and
you
you
need
a
key
to
get
in.
B
B
B
B
B
C
B
B
B
B
B
B
So
there's
no
rules,
no
caps,
that's
Infinity
and
we're
we're
trying
to
put
something
on
that.
That's.
B
As
to
what
the
table
looks
like
in
CD4,
but
trust
me,
they
they
have
a
lot
of
room
to
grow.
B
B
B
There
it's
just
not
defined
we're
we've
created
through
a
great
deal
of
effort
and
conversation.
B
Have
been
here
from
day,
one
they're,
the
that
ended
up
being
the
easy
part
trying
to
stop
that
or.
B
B
B
B
B
All
bad
outcomes,
but
we
we
don't
even
have
a
say
in
the
game
right
now
when
they
do
that.
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
So
this
is
just
finished
grade,
they're,
essentially
the
same
definition
existing
and
finished
with.
B
C
B
Did?
Okay
thanks,
Rick
and
remember
yeah
I'm
I'm
getting
lost
myself,
but
it'll
all
be
a
little.
B
Pieces
embedded
right,
that'll,
help
me,
which
we
happen
to
be
at
so
in
in
measuring
the.
B
B
So
a
flat
roof
or
a
sloped
roof
flat
roof
is,
is
what
it
is.
It's
flat
or
it's
a
flat
top
mansard.
B
A
mansard
that's
only
got
one
roof
plane
and
then
kind
of
like
Burger
King.
It's
not
got
windows.
B
B
B
B
B
In
here
for
discussion
is
penhouses
pen,
houses
right
now
are
allowed
and
they
are
considered.
B
B
B
And
a
half
story
building,
provided
you
don't
go
over
the
40-foot
height
requirement
in
feet
so.
B
B
B
B
B
B
Where
where's
that
piece
in
the
presentation,
there
is
a
requirement
in
the
code
and
I'll
fish.
B
It
out
when
we
get
finished
here
and
give
you
a
better
answer,
but
there's
a
sort
of
obscene.
B
B
B
It's
worth
100
Market
Street
is
an
eight
foot
step
back
and
it
it's
pretty
pretty
effective.
B
So
yeah
I
think
20
I'm
going
to
go
back
to
Penthouse
or
figure
out
where
it
went.
Foreign.
B
So
move
to
20
from
15
give
it
the
same
50
discount
that
everybody
else
gets
it's
an
attic.
B
It's
not
a
story,
it
isn't
today,
and
the
last
part
on
there
is
to
not
just
not
discourage.
B
B
B
B
E
E
E
B
B
Or
railings
that
may
or
may
not
be
present
and
and
obviously
even
the
stairwell
is
an
appendage.
B
B
B
Flat
or
14
if
it
has
a
pitched
roof,
you
get
a
50
discount
on
that,
like
the
other
sloped
roofs.
E
E
B
Didn't
hear
you
say
left:
well,
that's
just
a
it's
a
man's
hard
roof
on
the
corner
and
there's
no.
B
Magic
to
it
other
than
that's
not
considered
a
story
is,
would
that
actually
be
within
our
current.
E
D
E
E
B
B
B
Calling
it
like
other
sloped
roofs,
I'm.
Sorry,
that's
wrong!
If
it's
a
hip
top,
it
gets
the
mid.
Yes.
B
B
A
B
B
This
hasn't
come
up
before
recently
the
the
problem
I
see
with
the
current
definition
the.
B
B
Four,
a
412
pitch,
so
what
we're
attempting
to
do
here
with
the
new
definition
is
be
very
clear.
B
B
B
B
C
B
B
B
Mechanical
so
does
I
think
the
Porter
Street
townhouses
have
the
same
big
well
in
the
middle.
B
B
That
go
again,
this
is
this
is
really
an
HDC
ask
in
respect
to
just
having
the
ability
to.
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
E
As
a
guard
rail
as
well,
so
you
don't
have
the
the
added
the
added
guard
rail
for
access
to.
E
B
B
B
B
B
You
know
these
examples
on
here
nobody's
trying
to
push.
You
know:
19th
century
Cornish
treatments,
I,.
B
B
B
B
Keep
going
sorry
I'm
backing
up
just
to
make
sure
I
didn't
skim
over
anything.
Okay,
I
didn't
now.
B
So
we
did
the
penthouse,
we
did
the
definition
last
slide.
This
is
late
to
the
party
here.
B
B
Roof
that
that's
at
a
height,
eighty
percent
I'm
not
seeing
what's
behind,
read
it
up
here
at.
B
B
B
B
B
C
Nick
I'm,
sorry
I'm,
sorry.
D
C
One
way
or
another
yeah
I,
think
I
was
here
six
weeks
ago
and
if
not
two
or
three
weeks.
B
B
Congress
Street
five
foot
piece,
everything
else
is
neutral
and
at
least
in
my
mind
it
was
so
I.
B
B
B
Make
it
presumably
Brown
to
match,
what's
been
previously
approved,
not
built
yet
but
approved.
B
B
B
B
Are
all
60
feet
all
down?
Foundry
Place,
you
know
some
of
the
renderings
show
shorter
buildings,
but.
B
In
the
translation
of
the
the
the
North
End
Vision
into
the
code,
it's
pretty
clear
the
reason.
B
B
B
D
At
it
in
a
couple,
different
ways
and
I
think
Nick
is
really
very,
you
know,
definitely
kind.
D
D
D
In
that
60-foot
sort
of
vision
for
that
Corridor,
looking
at
all
three
of
those
things,
we
decided.
D
A
B
No
there's
no
guarantee
that's
going
to
be
built
number
one
I
mean
we
don't.
B
D
D
B
B
B
I
think
it's
reasonable
to
assume
they
would
want
to
evaluate
it.
Should
this
pass,
what
Have.
B
B
A
E
Comments
in
regards
to
a
lot
too,
of
DSA
Nick,
you
had
said
determining
whether.
E
And
one
of
the
incentives
is
that
public
era,
public
use
area
or
common
area
and.
B
Or
if
I
understand
the
question
so
should
lot
to
it
of
DSA
come
back
up
yes
and
they're
in
the.
E
B
It
seems
highly
unlikely
to
me
unless
everything
goes
to
hell
in
a
handbasket
for
lot
3
and
lot.
B
B
B
If
the
the
applicant
paid
the
city
per
the
post-closure
agreement
to
retain
Lot,
2,
Lot
2,.
E
B
The
the
yeah
so
we're
not
affecting
any
of
the
uses
right
in
this
set
of
zoning
amendments.
B
A
B
Could
you
provide
them
to
the
whole
planning
board?
Please
yeah
I'll
give
them
to
the
chair.
C
C
A
B
B
B
Back
to
the
HTC,
the
HTC
uses
this
regularly
in
order
to
judge
these
projects
and
then.
B
B
So
yeah
we'll
work
to
make
sure
you
guys
can
see
them
as
well.
I
thought
that
was
that.
B
We're
all
good
and
Greg,
just
I
looked
for
the
the
railing
yeah
and
that
that's
no
longer.
B
B
Times
four,
we
should
maybe
consider
okay
bringing
that
next
round.
I
just
remember.
B
B
A
A
A
C
State
Street,
some
of
the
at
least
one
of
the
features
of
the
proposed
changes.
I
like
is
the.
C
Measuring
height
off
of
existing
grade
I
I
think
that's
a
great
idea.
I
think
that
most.
C
C
C
C
C
C
We
talk
about
the
purpose
of
the.
The
purpose
of
this
exercise
is
closing
loopholes,
but
it
seems
to.
C
Me
that
you're
opening
one
big
loophole,
which
is
by
expressing
height
limits
on
these
so-called.
C
C
The
unintended
consequence
of
that
is
going
to
be
is
you're,
going
to
be
able
to
you're
going.
C
C
C
Jones
House
or
raise
the
raise
the
raise
the
heights
of
any
of
those
buildings.
I
see
my
time.
C
As
drawing
to
to
a
close
I
wish,
I
could
say
more,
but
in
two
minutes
that's
the
best.
I
can
do.
C
E
Good
evening
page
Trace
27
Hancock
Street
for
the
purposes
of
this
evening,
I
am
not
speaking.
E
I
saw
somewhere
in
the
packet
that
I
can't
find.
Now
there
was
a
mention
of
including
a
line.
E
E
I
also
have
questions
I.
Thank
you
for
all
the
presentation,
especially
you
Nick.
E
Place
that
was
discussed,
and
my
question
comes
back
of
why,
on
this
new,
that
the
latest
version.
E
E
E
E
E
Something
but
anyway
so
on
the
corner
of
Bow
Street
and
St
John's
Church,
Not,
Bow,
Street
and.
E
E
E
E
E
E
Only
one
that's
kind
of
open
for
debate
actually
is
the
Temple,
because
the
temple
is
next
to.
E
E
E
E
B
Five
foot
increase
on
one
property:
there
should
be
no
raising
of
building.
B
Heights
downtown
and
that
made
I
think
very
clear:
I
I
don't
understand
the
spot.
Zone.
B
It's
important
that
you
know
St
John's
and
the
Baptist
Church.
There
are
parking
lots
that.
B
Are
in
these
Civic
districts
that
could
be
redeveloped
and
again
there's
no
major
urgency.
B
B
B
B
Map
will
not
change
so
hang
on
I'm
going
who
the
second
speaker
was
asking
about
whose
benefit.
B
B
B
B
Which,
which
is
the
the
op
the
direction
I
think
the
speaker
was
intimating.
We
should
be
going.
B
Utilities
in
a
fire,
Access
Lane,
so
that
that's
why
it's
on
here
and
I'll
look
again
but
I
I,
don't.
B
Believe
any
part
of
The
Moffat
lad
is
CD4.
It's
a
Civic
District,
including
the
kitchen
of
the
four.
B
B
If
part
of
it
was
not
Civic
but
was
owned
by
a
non-profit
in
open
to
the
General
Public.
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
B
No
idea
of
changing
any
of
the
heights
as
part
of
this
amendment
for
the
McIntyre,
so
I'll
give.
B
B
D
D
C
D
D
C
A
A
A
C
A
A
A
C
Microphone
they're
having
a
hard
time
hearing
it
site
plan,
never
goes
to
city
council,
correct.
