HomeMy WebLinkAboutRay's comments on pollution concerns at 2-26-14 Board of Adjustment Special Exception meetingThanks Patrice for getting my letter into the minutes.
Again I want to ensure that the minutes accurately reflect my comments
and my attitude
towards the Cumberland Farms Exception Meeting last week,
Foremost it should known and conveyed, that I tried to maintain a
neutral position with this project. I only wanted things done properly
for the benefit of our community as a whole. To start
off I thanked Attorney Nohrr for addressing my concerns regarding the
underground fuel tanks and also thanked the applicant for agreeing to a
historical cultural assessment of the land where the development would
take place. I went on to say that I did a Google keyword search that
revealed several cases of gas contamination issues including one in New
Jersey, another actually with the Attorney General Attorney's office of
Vermont and even a mention of water contamination in Cumberland Farms
underground fuel tanks in Cocoa Florida. I said these mistakes like most
mistakes was something to learn from. I asked if that board moved
forward with this project that an environmental impact study be
performed that would measure all forms of pollution including noise,
storm-water runoff, light as well as the ground contamination. I said
that I lived at 209 Holman Road (house 3) and these factors could affect
us too, as well
as our neighbors across the way at Cape Shores.
If the minutes have been written up yet can you email what was written
regarding my comments?
