February 5, 2025 Planning Board Regular Meeting Minutes

set. Mr. Peist said the plan never really changed. Mr. Cardoza asked what is the plan for medical waste. Mr. Cox said they have medical bins that is picked up by different parties for medical waste. They do primary care so they don’t have a lot of medical waste to get rid of. Ms. Kapferer asked is there a design to obscure the view of the mechanicals on the roof. Mr. Peist said yes, this was a conscious choice on their end with the ceiling heights. They kept the second floor a little bit lower so they screen anything that they would have on the rooftop. Mr. Klein asked on the April 10 roof plans, it only has 10 condensers, the updated plan has 12 condensers, why do you need the extra 2 condensers. Mr. Peist said they were for the main hallway space. PROFESSIONALS QUESTIONS Mr. Haizel asked what the impact would be if the condensers on the roof would be shifted to the front of the building. Mr. Peist said they tried to work with the existing structure. They have a steel main beam running front to back and they wanted to be close to the steel beam. Once they start going far away from the beam it would impact the structure. Mr. Scott asked, on the plan for the first floor it showed that there is an office space and an event space, can you clarify that there is not gong to be an event space. Mr. Peist said there isn’t an event space; that was updated to just be the office. Mr. Scott asked when was the civil engineer engaged for this project. Mr. Cox said they were engaged after the site plan review. PUBLIC QUESTIONS Erick Buckley at 8 Edgehill Ct asked how could you add to a building that doesn’t meet the requirements by code and state it’s a conforming building, and what is the benefit outside of the owner. Mr. Peist said their intent is to not increase the footprint so they didn’t want to make their setbacks worse, that’s why they maxed the footprint that they had and tried to not go over the maximum height limit. Erick Buckley asked, do you feel that this blends in or conforms to the same look on Main Street. Mr. Peist said if you look across the street, there is newer construction and thinks this is an improvement to what is there. Jaime C at 11 Edgehill Rd asked is there a plan to have windows and a balcony on the back wall on the 2" and 3 floor. Mr. Peist said there are windows.

Edgehill Rd asked is there a plan to have windows and a balcony on the back wall on the 2" and 3 floor. Mr. Peist said there are windows. Lenny Carr asked how many mechanicals are there currently to operate the existing floor and how many are we adding because the noise is going to be significant. Mr. Cox said the noise will be significantly reduced since these are smaller units. Additionally, we don’t need more than 9 units, there are 12 just in case. Lenny Carr asked if there are 9 units or 12 units being proposed. Mr. Cox said they put 9 there just in case they need it. Lenny Carr asked of the 9 units being proposed, do you know how much noise it’s giving off. Mr. Cox said they didn’t do a noise calculation; they are going on based on what they know. Lenny Carr asked in the 12 feet extension, is the mechanicals included. Mr. Peist said no, the mechanicals are within the parapet that is 3 feet and included in the 12 feet extension. Lenny Carr asked is there anything else that this building does besides the economic improvement for Mr. Cox. Mr. Peist said there is also an aesthetic value to it. Jaime C asked, can you give a little bit of clarity on the moving of the units to the front, it 9
