Non-Binding Consultation: Val Somers and Christine Sloan regarding 519 Main Street and Birds Eye View
Somers is the current owner of 519 Main Street and Sloan owns Birds Eye View, which is an aerobatics company to be renting the space in the building. Aerobots will be designed at this location, manufactured at a separate location, final assembly and deliveries will be handled at this location. Concerns of the board were whether there are any proposed changes to the building, and the response was no; how many employees will there be, the response was 5 currently with an additional 2 or 3. The state septic approval is for 45 employees. The board stated that if it is confirmed that there is not a significant change of use for the building; no site plan review would be necessary. Currier stated he would recommend a letter to the board indicating a full proposal.

Additional Items for Discussion
Warzocha stated that Andover has no lighting standards and the board may want to think about this via language in the Site Plan Review.
The Site Plan Review Application and Regulations need to be reviewed and revised and a checklist created; however, the ordinance needs to be updated prior to that.
