were originally designed to be. Mr. Quentzel stated that there are times when construction is started that they may realize that there is a better way of doing things. He said that he does not think the new location of the batting cages and shotput will change the plan and he thinks that they should remain where they are and not be put back. Mr. Steinhart said that he would appreciate if members of the public took the time to read the data in the file because some of their testimony misrepresents the facts and misinforms the public if they do not learn the file. Vice Chairman Buechler said that he disagrees with Mr. Quentzel. He said that if the Board does not draw a line when an applicant comes before them for site plan approval, then they are encouraging them to just go ahead and do whatever they want. Vice Chairman Buechler stated that the Board needs to be cautious; he said the applicant gave no acceptable reason why the batting cages and shot-put area were relocated. Mr. Schwarzbaum stated that he is concerned about applicants not building according to approved plans. He said that he did not hear any members of the public objecting specifically to the batting cages and shot-put being relocated and rather than moving them back he recommends stronger fines. Mr. Schwarzbaum stated that he would like to propose, to the town, financial penalties and would vote to approve the application. Mr. Steinhart stated that initially he disagreed with what Vice Chairman Buechler said and agreed with Mr. Quentzel but after some thought he concurs with Vice Chairman Buechler because it is symbolic of “do not do it again”. Chairman Neuer stated that he is going to urge the Board Members to approve all but the batting cages and shotput relocation and that the Board take a separate vote for those two items. He said that the original resolution they approved five (5) years ago had sixty one (61) conditions; the Board did not put a rubber stamp on the original proposal. Chairman Neuer stated that, in real estate development, he has experienced that there are times when once the work begins what they originally had on paper does not work and changes have to be made. 45
