1. Meeting called to order at 7:30 P.M.
2. "Form A" plans
Collins - School Street
The applicant of this "Form A" plan is Robert E. Collins. This "Form A" plan
consists of property bounded westerly by School Street, northerly by Matthias,
Pangburn and Fallon adn Goowin and easterly and southerly by J & S Realty
Trust. The reason this plan does not constitute a subdivision is because the
two (2) lots have frontage on an existing street and conform to the Town of
Mansfield Zoning Bylaw. The checklist is complete.
Motion: To sign the "Form A" plan for School Street.
(Doucette - Flynn - All in favor)
Worobey - Eastfield Farms
The applicant of this "Form A" plan is Martin J. Worobey. This "Form A" plan
consists of a parcel of the Eastfield Farms lot located on the southerly side
of East Street approximately 1000 feet from Route 106. The reason this plan
does not constitute a subdivision because the proposed lot has the required
frontage on an accepted way - East Street. The checklist is complete.
Motion: To sign the "Form A" plan for Eastfield Farms.
(Flynn - Doucette - All in favor)

A copy of a letter from Joseph D. Brugliera, Chairman of the Mansfield Planning
Board, to Mr. Bertram M. Cook, Inspector of Buildings, stating that on July 2,
1985, the Planning Board voted to send a positive recommendation on the site plan
for an oil storage facility at Warren and Winthrop Street incorporating the
comments from the DPW Director and the Planning Director.
A copy of a Statement of Facts from the Mansfield Zoning Board of Appeals con-
cerning the application of Elaine Jackson to construct a six -unit apartment
building on a lot on County Street, said use being non -conforming in a Residence
C Zone. The Zoning Board voted to deny this petition.
A copy of a Statement of Facts from the Mansfield Zoning Board of Appeals con-
cerning the application of Robert Collins for a lot at 1112 School Street, said
lot having a front yard set back of less than 40 feet which is non -conforming in
an Agricultural Zone. The Zoning Board voted to deny the petition.
4. Planning Director Mannarino informed the Board that Mr. Richard Staples has requested
a surplus material permit for his property on Jewell Street and that before the
Board makes a determination on this permit, a site walk should be performed. The
Board decided hold the site walk on this property on Wednesday, July 17, 1985,
at 6:30 P.M.
5. Planning Director Mannarino stated that the Planning Board made a decision at
a past meeting to not have the applicants of variances attend the meetings when
the Planning Board reviews these applications; this was to be a trial period
for 15 applications, the trial period for this process is now complete and the
Board must now make a decision as to if they wish to stay with this procedure.
Planner Bachman felt that the applicants should attend the meeting because the
applications are not being entirely completed to allow the Planning Board to
make an accurate decision. Planner Genatossio stated that when the applicants
come to the meetings, the Board only sees the positive side of granting the
variance, they do not hear the negative side of granting the variance; and the
applications should be able to stand on their own because the hardship is supp-
osed to be with the land, not with the applicant.
Motion: To not have the applicants come in before the Planning Board when
the Board is reviewing their applications and to also send a letter
to the Zoning Board of Appeals requesting that changes be made on
the application concerning the section on hardship - the Planning
Board would like the applications to specify that this hardship is
with the land, not the applicants; the Board would also like the
applicants to quote the Zoning Bylaw under this section.
(Genatossio - Doucette - Flynn - Brugliera)
(Boldrighini - Bachman opposed to this motion.)
6. Motion: To take a ten-minute recess.
(Doucette - Bachman - All in favor)
