Comments I spoke at the first planning board meeting. I strongly object to
the size of this project which is in no way in keeping with this
neighborhood. I object to the number of units and the traffic
impact it will have on this small, quiet street. I was horrified that
the owners of this property had huge, historic trees removed in
preparation for a project that had not even been approved. I
question whether that was legally done. I object to the unsightly
white fence that was put up around the property last year. It felt
like an insult to our neighborhood. Parking is already an issue

on Cottage Street, especially in the winter. It is hard to imagine
how six large condo units will be able to put out their trash and
recycling cans every week and not occupy two or more parking
spots in addition to the spots we will lose with the driveway
entrance that is planned. In short, I am strongly against this
project as it was proposed.
