The first item on the Agenda was a Public Hearing to consider a request for a
Conditional Use for property located at the southwest corner of Jewett Lane and
Kennel Road in a RI -1, Restricted Industrial Zoning District for the purpose of
limited outside storage of vehicles. Owner/ representative: Scott Barnes.
Mr. Scott Barnes, President of Aero Products, stated that their intentions are to
build a new facility for Aero Products. They will service vehicles that have been
damaged in accidents; i.e. body work, and putting in equipment on new vehicles.
They will not exceed 6 to 10 vehicles on the site at any given time. Mr. Barnes
stated that they anticipate building a 57,000 square foot facility that will be on a
paved area, fenced and screened.
Mrs. Stairs asked why there are two posting on this property.
Mr. John Reynolds, Engineering Design, stated that the second posting is because
they will be going before Board of Adjustment for a parking variance.
Mr. Keith asked how much work is involved in this type of operation.
Mr. Barnes stated that the vehicles have a pickup truck style chassis with a square
box on top. The chassis normally wears out within 50,000 miles. The old chassis is
taken out and a new one is put in. This is very light manufacturing, refurbishing
type work.
Mr. Johnson asked if the main access will be off Kennel Road. Mr. Barnes stated
"yes, but this will not tie in with the industrial park."
Mrs. Stairs inquired as to the facilities. Mr. Marder stated that there is water in the
area that will have to be extended. Sewer service will eventually be going in. At
present, this facility will operate off of a septic tank. Mr. Marder stated that the
sewer line, known as the Westerly Interceptor, will be coming out 46.
