PlanningBoard | 2006-10-23 | 2 | Ms. Dorothy Reid noted that she wished to discuss the permit to make the changes on Buildings 300 (former Walgreen's), 400 and 500 in Alameda Town Centre. She noted that was the corner that residents were concerned about with respect to bus traffic. She requested clarification on the plans for that area of the center. She expressed concern about the 37-foot-high tower, which she believed was unnecessary. She was very concerned that this project may get out of control, and appreciated staff's efforts in working on this project. Mr. Thomas noted that there had been many changes at South Shore over the years, and that there were periodic amendments that come before the Planning Board. In this case, staff sent out a notice to the neighbors, as is customary with all design reviews. If the neighbors have concerns about what staff was considering, staff has the ability to bring it to the Planning Board. Staff anticipated having a study session on the South Shore project at the November 13, 2006, meeting. The gas station proposal will also be discussed. In response to an inquiry by Member Ezzy Ashcraft whether the Planning Board members could receive the same notices received by the neighbors regarding the proposed developments, Mr. Thomas confirmed that would be possible. He believed that should be part of the normal noticing procedure, and would ensure that took place. 7. CONSENT CALENDAR: 7-A. Applicant: Harbor Bay Acquisition LLC (FDP06-0002 and DR06-0062) (CL).
