Tracy Hass agreed to look into this issue.

He asked if this entrance was ever legalized. He also noted that Mr. Massarelli was going to chock with the County and the City, as to whether or not this entrance was going to remain.

Mr. Munsart commem~ that about four years ago, we had an attongy at every meeting. Ms. Kilkelly referred to the ~ of 6/4/98, (which she missed), and Mr. Catalano's request for a garage door opening in his building at the northwest corner of Main St., and US 1. She noted that when Mr. Catalano presented his original site plan, he said that that portion of the building was not going to be used, and the parking was calculated on that statement. She .asked if this issue was considered when the garage door was approved and if the parking was checked out. She conuuented that she thinks that company has abused their space, and reminded the Board that Mr. Catalano had said that he only planned on having no mom than six (6) ca~ on that lot. (Minutes of 10/16/97 note that Mr. Catalano stated that he would have about tea (10) or twelve (12) cars on the lot.)

Mr. Hass noted that there was a minor modification that had been approved. Mr. Thomas asked ti~ this site plan be reviewed, and also r~ntioned the boats on the sales lot.

Mr. I-lass noted that we could bring it the attemion of DOT. She also noted a red, neon sign in the window for Discount Goff on U.S. #1, and noted'that this is prohibited in the Ri~ District. Staff noted that they will check into it. Mr. Schulke reminded the Board members that as underslaff~ as the Commumty Development Department is, he didn't think that they should be bothered by porsonai requests by th~.members of the P & Z Commission. There was more discussion on thc ownership of the VFW and American Legion sites. 6 PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MINUTS OF REGULAR. MEETING OF JULY 9, 1998 DIRECTOR MATTERS: Mr. Hass referr~ to the Winn Dixie landscaping, and noted that Winn DiXie has.~ to remove the stockade fence along Laconia Street and plant more landscaping.

Mr. Mather noted that it ~on the size of the plants going in. Mr. Pliska asked if this should come before P & Z. Chron, Munsart commented that this should not even be before this Board, but it is a Code Enforcement issue.

There was also a comment on the lack of landscaping at Discount Auto on U.S. #1. Mr. Schulke mentioned the .subject of concurrmcy which is required by the: Comprehemsive Plan.

Ms, Kilkelly noted that the subject of the VFW and American Legion came from the LPA's review of the Land Use Map and what designation should bo used for that property. Mr. Schulke apologized and noted that personal issues are sometimes aired at ~h~se mee~u~ and just wanted to r~xind the Board rnem~ that th~ should probably call the~ appropriate Department for those kinds of answers, and not tie up staff with research under the assumption that they are P & Z Commission issues. Mr. Hass then gave information on the status of the zoning maps which are in the hands of the Property Appraisers office. He indicated that they have updated the maps and t~y should be colored within a couple of weeks. Mr. Thomas noted that there was little information in the minutes ~ than that Catalano requested to put a garage door on his building. He indicated that no other informalion was: noted, but now it seems that Mr. Catalano wants to do detailing in that area.

Munsart comm~ted that a Tozzolo Bros...Model home has ten (10) pa~king spaces, but with the driveway roped off~ they only have eight (8) spaces.
