SPECIAL EXCEPTION (USE) OF GIUSEPPI’S RESTAURANT PROPERTY - Manager Burns reported that Mr. Cash Moore requested a Special Use Exception through the town hall and paid his fees for the advertising.  The advertisement for the Special Meeting will be paid for by the town.

 

Mr. Moore explained that he hasn’t yet purchased the property.  His plans include a liquor store and use of the existing lounge area (which now seats approximately 16-18 people).  The lounge issue was not brought up previously and will need to be researched before the next meeting.

 

Residents present were concerned with their property values declining, more crime, children walking past a liquor store after school, etc.  If residents find any proof that property values decline, Manager Burns has asked residents to bring this information to the meeting.

 

The board asked Mr. Moore to submit a letter before the next meeting explaining the concept of his business operation (hours of operation for lounge, hours of operation for the store, etc.)

A Special Planning and Zoning Meeting is tentatively scheduled for Monday, June 13, 2009.  Manager Burns will e-mail everyone after he confirms the date with the remaining 3 board members.
