the best site for the easement can be determined.
Ms. PUgh said she was concerned with long-term affordable housing
since the Commission had made so many concessions. There was a
discussion on this issue. Mr. Craig felt that the ".affordable"
criterion should apply only to first time 'buyers and that the
negative impact of the 8 units being squeezed onto the lot would
hold the price down. Ms. PUgh wanted a 25-year affordability
criterion. Mrs. Maher wanted at least a decade but though Mr.
Craig had made a valid point. Mr. Burgess, Mr. Austin and Ms.
Peacock felt 1-time affordability was all they would stipulate.
Mr. Craig then moved to continue the public hearing until 27
February. Mrs. Maher seconded. Motion passed unanimously.
4. Site plan application of Gregg Beldock for automobile
lubrication and car stereo service use in an existing 6589 sq. ft.
building, 1525 Shelburne Rd.
Mr. Beldock said this is the former Tinguini building and they
have a 20-year lease on it. The �lan to put in a Jiffy Lube
business in part of the building ° a complementary retail business
in front. The Jiffy Lube is a 10-minute service done with
automated equipment. Old oil will be put in special containers
and an oil recovery service will come and take these away. The
landscaping on the lot will be improved and the will put grass to
the edge of the pavement. They will repave the broken up part of
the parking lot. Mr. Weith recommended moving the parking spaces
back to make a straight access on a right of way to the property
to the north. Members agreed to move the parking back and to put
the curb cut slightly west of the parking. Mr. Weith noted that
the proposed use would generate slightly less peak hour traffic
than Tinguini's. Mr. Beldock said they are planning the other
business to be a wholesale business of environmentally safe
products.
Ms. Peacock moved the Planning Commission approve the Site Plan
application of Gregg Beldock for 4518 sq. ft. of automobile
service use and 2,000 sq. ft. of retail use in an existing 6578
sq_ ft. building as depicted on a plan entitled "Site Plan, Jiffy

5. Other Business
a) Mr. Burgess said he met with Mr. Weith and Mr. Hafter regarding
the planning workload. The major topic was the traffic model.
They also discussed the "to do" list which will now have dates for
accomplishment of the items. If anything is added to the list,
dates will have to be reshuffled. Mr. Burgess said the Commission
should probably tell the Planner he doesn't have to race to get a
developer's plan to the Commission.
Mr. Weith said the #1 and #2 priorities are the Comprehensive Plan
and the Traffic Model. He agreed that development review has to
give a bit. Members also agreed.
As there was no Lurther business to come before the Commission,
the meeting adjourned at 11:15pm.
