AGENDA ITEHS (P1JBLIC HEARINGS) (Continued)
Mr. Waters, Mr. Theiss and Ms. Shelley expressed their wishes that the land
remain as open space to provide a recrea~ion center for the residents of
Westborough. They are concerned that the West borough area is already too
congested.
Commissioner Martin was concerned that all the units were three bedroom
models. Some consideration should be given for smaller more affordable
housing in keeping with the goals of the Housing Blement.
Other concerns voiced by the Commission were that:
- the development should not block the sun and view of existing homes;
- private streets are too narrow, prohibiting on-street parking which
is difficult to regulate and police;
- the developer should consider redesigning a few units for the disabled
and should also consider providing a meeting room; and
- consideration should be given to eliminating one of tbe accessways
Motion-.Terry/Second Martin: To continue llP-85-716, SA-85-88 and Negative
Declaration No. 489 to the meeting of May 23, 1985. Unanimously approved
