Re: Application for solar Panels on Main House and rear Office 50 Main St. Salisbury
Members of the commission : D Brown, T. Callahan and E. Harney met with contractor, Tom Carberry and solar contractor, John McLennan, Jr. at the Newcomb property to discuss the installation of solar panels on 9/18/17 at 8 am.
After John explained the placement of the solar panels on the main house it was determined that it was not acceptable to have the panels visible from the road. The recommendation was made to install the panels on the back of the house where they would not be visible from the road. Mr. Mclellan was going to propose a modification to the owners and present a new application for the main house
If the owners wish to proceed on the application for panels on the office building, a public meeting will be scheduled to finalize that applicat ion.
Elyse Harney will send a letter to the owners, Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Newcomb, to that affect.
Update on Historic Maps: Carol Mason has been speaking to Matt Kiefer about the questionable Proposed Fourth Amendment to the Historic District. E. Harney will question First Selectman regarding advice from the Attorney for the town. Properties listed in the Fourth amendment are listed by the State of CT as Historic. Matt will provide a packet from the Minutes of the town.
T.Callahan made a motion to adjourn; D Brown second. Meeting was adjourned at 9 am. The next scheduled meeting will be Nov. 7, 8: 30 am at Salisbury town Hall
Respectfully submitted,
Elyse D. Harney, Sec.
