(Working notes) TOWN OF ROCKY HILL PLANNING AND ZONING ...

Planning and Zoning Commission Page 11
Meeting of May 18, 2011
Mr. John Enkel of 17 Arapaho Drive in East Hartford addressed the Commission. He
works for a company that recycles clothes and shoes. They try to raise money for the
Children’s Medical Network for cancer. They already have approval from the Wal-Mart
Manager to place these 2 bins on their site in the garden area. He submitted a photo to
the Commission showing where the bins would be going. Mr. Enkel said they are a
charitable organization and usually give back about $50,000 a year to the Children’s
Medical Network. Bins will be serviced 2-3 times a week or as needed.
A MOTION was made by Commissioner Vasel to approve 2 clothing bins to be
placed on the Wal-Mart Property, including all staff comments. Seconded by
Commissioner Angelo. All were in favor, MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Commissioner Vasel asked if staff found out if the clothing bins at Krauser’s and
Wethersfield Glass had permits. Mr. Minakan said the bin at Wethersfield Glass does
have a permit. He will have to check on the one at Krauser’s. Commissioner Vasel said
he doesn’t recall allowing the bins at Wethersfield Glass to be placed right in front of the
property.
F. Route 3 Discussion as brought up by the Mariners of 58 Farms Village Road
Ms. Krista Mariner said she didn’t intend this to be an agenda item. She just wanted to
make the Commission aware that Sue Moses who is doing the land use analysis for the
Route 3 study identified 2 parcels east of Route 99, which would have an impact on
Route 3. Because of these two parcels’ proximity to the proposed Waterfront
Commercial District she thought the Commissioner’s could amplify the discussion.
Chairman DiLorenzo said they would need more information about that for the
Commission to discuss it.
6. ANY OTHER BUSINESS
Commissioner Arico said he felt 7-12 regarding materials used for filling was still not
clear enough. Chairman DiLorenzo said this would be discussed at the public hearing.
But they would have to ask staff if the wording could be changed after it has been
scheduled for a public hearing. Vice Chairman Goldberg said they would be allowed to
make minor changes at the time of the public hearing.
7. COMMUNICATIONS
Commissioner Angelo wanted to make sure the two letters from Mr. Zagroba were put
into the record. Chairman DiLorenzo said anything in the packet is part of the record.
Commissioner Angelo said there was also a letter received from Mr. Joe Mascaro.
Chairman DiLorenzo asked that they don’t get correspondence using the script font
because it is too hard to read.
