Jahan Habib?
SPEAKER_07	Aye.
SPEAKER_03	Lynn Richards?
Lynn Richards	Aye.
SPEAKER_03	Luc Schuster? Aye. Michael McNeely? Aye. Amelia Aba? Aye. And Michael Capuano?
Michael Capuano	Aye. We have meeting minutes. Next up, we have a request for a waiver from the applicant at 1 Myrtle Street and my understanding of the applicant themselves is here to make the request and it's a request for a requirement of a submission, but it seems to be a fairly ministerial. Issues, so I'm hoping the applicant can be unmuted, shared and be able to make the request themselves and any. Context that the applicant or staff want to make.
SPEAKER_03	Obviously, this is Steve Carey. I'm the case planner for this. I see Darren Gladstone is in the audience. I was unable to promote the panelists, but here I can unmute him and Darren, you should be able to unmute on your end. um and you can just uh i know the planning board uh you guys have received the uh waiver request kind of packet materials that i included in your packet um but darren if there's anything you want to um you want to add or just just restate uh your request for uh materials to be waived that'd be great yeah i believe i'm muted now correct
Michael Capuano	Yes, we can hear you okay perfect yeah not really I mean it's just looking for you before you proceed i'm sorry, but for the purpose of the record, can you please just introduce yourself and give you a name and address for the record.
SPEAKER_07	Darren gladstone we're clear view sunroom 1037 K of highway barrington New Hampshire. Steve Monowitz, yeah the submittal pretty much covers everything we're just basically looking to remove a six by six deck and put a six by six mud room sunroom on the back of the home.
Michael Capuano	Steve Monowitz, This is a waiver request so it's not a public hearing. Steve Monowitz, yeah yep so so i'm wondering if Steve if you have any.
SPEAKER_03	TAB, Mark McIntyre:" comments that you'd like to add as the case plan on this waiver request sure sure there's three materials that are typically included in a. TAB, Mark McIntyre:" site plan approval application that they're requesting a waiver from one being the building elevations second being building sections, both of these are. you know typically included for um you know construction of a either a new building or a much more significant building component um but uh in this case given the scope of um the project staff's in support of of waving this um as the planning board feels that one of those items you know feels necessary to be able to understand sort of the scope of what's going on and then the third item is the um zoning uh compliance table um again this is something that would be uh it's helpful particularly for isd to determine the zoning compliance of a new building or a building component i did review this uh with isd just earlier today just to confirm that they were you know in support of uh this waiver as well um you know the the addition which is sort of a a sunroom in the back really doesn't um change anything about the the main massing with regards to zoning compliance it doesn't really change any of the setbacks um so uh again staff is in support of waving that uh material request as well thanks steve does anybody have any comments or questions of uh steve or the applicant for this waiver request
Michael Capuano	Seeing none, the chair moves to, I guess, accept the request or approve the request for a waiver. Seconded by Amelia. Steve, please roll call, please.

SPEAKER_03	Michael McNeely. Hi, Amelia. And Michael.
Michael Capuano	Hi, thank you. See, in a couple of weeks. Okay, next up. I'm going to take the. The last, because I don't believe let me know if there's a representative. On that particular application. in the in the audience i don't think there is this steve carey though i also don't see anyone um in the audience from the from the party perfect well let's take up uh 59 um bow street please oh oh check out one eye from uh michael mcgealy oh i'm sorry hang on i i saw i saw a hand from michael and a hand from amelia sorry
Michael McNeley	Yeah. So I just wanted to disclose that I was absent from the September 4th plan board meeting. I watched the video and submitted the appropriate affidavit.
Michael Capuano	Okay. And Amelia.
Amelia Aboff	Same. I was absent from the meeting where this was previously discussed, but I've watched the video and submitted the update. Thank you.
Michael Capuano	Okay. Wonderful. Um, okay, let's, let's move forward with, um, the, the review of this application.
SPEAKER_04	Good evening, Attorney Anne Vigorito. On behalf of the applicant for 59 Bow Street, I am joined this evening by the architect, Tanya Caria from Khalsa Design. We also have the applicant, Alon Sassoon is here as the manager of the 59 Bow Street LLC. We did present at the last meeting and I believe Chairman couple on, or you left the record open for any further comments. So, at this time, if you would like, I can have Tanya do a quick recap or whatever the pleasure of the board would be.
Michael Capuano	So, I know 1 of the questions that we had on this application related to the sufficiency of the material submitted for the generator. And so, yeah, if if you want to make a presentation, I know the planning board has received the additional information. So, if you, if you and your team want to weigh in on on that and anything else, please do so. And obviously the case planner as well.
SPEAKER_04	Caroline Miller, Yes, I do believe we uploaded. Caroline Miller, On the official letter from every source, I think we, you know it was kind of unofficially you know presented to the board at the last meeting. Caroline Miller, I think tanya has that on a slide and I would just ask if tanya actually I think she needs to be promoted in order for her to do so.
SPEAKER_03	Tanya Kessler, Steve carry I just promoted tanya to analyst.
SPEAKER_06	Tanya Kessler- Good evening everyone tanya care from colsa design architect on the project um yeah so we did present that at the last hearing it's not much to look at. Tanya Kessler- But the transformer was approved by eversource for the location, we presented and we submitted it to the planning staff, so that they could review it in further detail, and they updated their staff report.
Michael Capuano	And the location is is underground, right? Is that is that.
SPEAKER_06	It would be under the sidewalk on both street place.
Michael Capuano	Okay, because I do recall there was a concern buying a butter as to whether it was going to be above ground and the use in the space directly approximate to it. And so we just. Catch everybody up and anybody who might be in the audience, we wanted to make sure that this was, in fact, going to be not obtrusive. That sounds like that's the answer that we got from. Okay, thank you. Does anybody on the board have any comments or questions or points of discussion for the applicant or staff or if staff. Wants to raise anything that we haven't talked about already. Go once twice scanning my colleagues. Okay, I think it's certainly a fine amendment. Thank you guys for working through with with staff and with us and making sure that we can move this in the direction that we anticipated. It was going to go into. You know, with whatever source, and I think, and I hope that this. Alleviates the concerns that were raised by the butter and I'm happy to move forward with a vote on this. I think we need actually 2 votes. So, following public testimony review of the submitted materials and deliberation of the required considerations outlined by the ordinance, I moved to approve with. The conditions outlined in the staff memorandum, the major amendment to a previously granted site plan approval, which was 21 dash 017. To develop general building in the mid rise 5 district with the. Seconded by Amelia Steve roll call place.
SPEAKER_03	Sorry, I was muted. Jehan Habib? Aye. Lynn Richards?
Lynn Richards	Aye.
SPEAKER_03	Luc Schuster? Aye. Michael McNeely? Aye. Amelia Aboff? Aye. And Michael Capuano?
Michael Capuano	Aye. Okay, following public testimony review of the submitted materials and deliberation of the required considerations outlined by the ordinance, I move to approve with the conditions outlined in the staff memorandum, the major amendment to a previously granted special permit, P&Z 21-017, to establish a household living use in the Mid-Rice 5 District. Seconded by Amelia. Steve. Jahan Abib.
SPEAKER_03	Aye. Lynn Richards.
Lynn Richards	Aye.
SPEAKER_03	Luc Schuster. Aye. Michael McNeely. Aye. Amelia Aboff. Aye. And Michael Capuano.
Michael Capuano	Aye. Congratulations. Good luck.
SPEAKER_04	Thank you so much, Chairman Capuano, members of the board. And congratulations to Amelia. I think we may have bored the baby to sleep tonight because he or she has not made a peep.
Michael Capuano	Good luck. Amelia, maybe some of the Eversource materials can help with nap time.
Amelia Aboff	I do think that watching the recording of the September 4th meeting helped on a previous occasion.
Michael Capuano	Yeah, if you want to have a poor night's sleep, watch something where something controversial happens and I get to go. all right thank you so much okay have a good night um that's everything i believe that's on the planning board's agenda outside of a request um by by staff to make the planning board aware of a meeting so steve go for it
SPEAKER_03	Sure, just that we completed a zoning study of what we're calling Central Broadway Corridor, which is between Ball Square and Magoon Square. and we're we presented that study actually back in in march um to the public but uh the night we chose it corresponded with this emergency rally that was happening at tufts university so other people we think might have attended that uh went to that instead along with the city councilor so anyway that that initial uh that public presentation we did back in the spring didn't get reached many community members as we would have liked so We're holding another one next week on Tuesday. I just wanted to make sure the planning board was aware, you know, you're, you're welcome to attend if you'd like to. I think that, you know, it's possible we'll see some sort of zoning zoning map amendment coming. there's a number of city councilors who are interested in that um and i think that the zoning study may may inform that um so anyway just just added it um to your to your packet just to um you know make sure there's some visibility for it and figure i'd use the um board administration item just as a excuse to to do that i i realize we're actually missing one item on the agenda which is the um draw seven
Amelia Aboff	yeah yeah i figure we can we can hop to that next but i did see amelia right yeah sorry to you mr chair um is it the intention is it is it staff's intention or your intention for us to have a discussion of the broadway corridor study materials like at an upcoming meeting or will there be a no for a planning board discussion of that assuming it's a plan that will eventually come before us for approval
SPEAKER_03	Well, it actually I want to say, yeah, it's technically not not a plan for adoption. It's just a just a study. Essentially, it was based on public engagement. Really what started that study. This is additional background. I should have given is that a number of parcels along the north side of Broadway actually split with Medford. And it's created this sort of permanent headache for quite a while. um so that was sort of the impetus was i think a grant that was um from the state um that was for both cities to kind of look together to work together to try to figure out if there's a way to harmonize zoning um between the two sides look at medford's look at somerville's um and we sort of use that as an opportunity to um hold back this was back in 2024 now but hold some public engagement events to really really try to get a handle on what level of density people were comfortable with along that stretch and sort of what you know land uses might be desired or might be missing um so so yeah so the resulting document is what we refer to as a study it's sort of information for the public and to inform future planning initiatives um not a not a plan to be adopted um by the planning board um that being said i mean it you know it's
Michael Capuano	if you guys if you you know want to add it as an official agenda item once you guys you know if you do review the study and want to have a discussion about it as a planning board obviously it's you know you're welcome to do that steve um is the meeting i remember when we were dealing with the woody's liquor's um application a few weeks ago one of the Plan is from Medford was in attendance talking about their comprehensive plan and things like that. Do you anticipate that this meeting is going to.
SPEAKER_03	um address some of the issues that that Medford is looking at and I don't know where they are on their plan I hope so I hope so um yeah just about a month or so ago I believe they put up a proposed proposed zoning map I don't know where they're at in terms of adoption um but we have reached out to the planning director for Medford and we're hoping um she'll be in attendance at this meeting um and yeah we would love if she was there and wanted to just say a few words about where Medford's at in the process Okay, great.
Michael Capuano	Yeah, John, thank you.
SPEAKER_01	Mr. chair through you. I just wanted to thank Steve for bringing this up. Even if the planning board doesn't take up this matter in future discussions. I think Steve, if it's possible and feasible, I would just say that as part of our other. discussion or other board matters if you could just share with us these types of whether it's a zoning study or some other uh matter of relevance uh you know i think that uh it might be just helpful for the planning board members to at least have the option to to go um and this is a great big forum to do so so thank you for doing this and thank you mr share as well yeah absolutely no i'm happy to sort of um
SPEAKER_03	you know, and I send out those packets, use, yeah, use this board administration issues item as just a, as basically a forum for, you know, any kind of, you know, community engagement event, ongoing, ongoing study, um, that sort of thing.
Michael Capuano	Um, draw seven park bridge thing. Um, Steve, can you, I know we had a couple of questions at the last meeting from me, from Lynn, from a number of other people as to what exactly our role is here at this point for some of these applications. This is something that we don't see very often. In fact, aside from the beach watershed thing that we had a few weeks ago, this is the first one that I remember doing. I've been on the board for a little while. Joseph Baeta, Supt of Schools & kind of trying to figure out what is, what is our role as it relates to these I don't know if we're going to get any more of these of this more frequent that this just happens to be coincidental sure i'm.
SPEAKER_03	Joseph Baeta, Supt of Schools & So as part of the chapter 91 application process, but the planning board in the municipality that. Joseph Baeta, Supt of Schools & You know, is. that that waterway is in does have the opportunity to submit a written recommendation. The form that I had forwarded around as part of the packet is really just a form to basically acknowledge that the planning board did receive those materials. There was some confusion over when our division received those materials. So they had apparently mailed it to our office over the summer. We've had AC issues in City Hall all summer. We haven't been in that often. We hadn't received those materials. Obviously, we would have forwarded along to you guys as soon as we had, but we didn't receive them for whatever reason. So we didn't become aware of that Chapter 91 application until I think it was late August. So that's when we got it on the September 4 agenda. so there is some um i think still not clarity on on when the uh clock has started for a review period because that would start when the planning board receives those materials um and i'm i'm i basically asked the A lot of department for their input on it. Their take was that it could be kind of a tricky question, but really what it comes down to is if a written recommendation is something that the planning board wants to submit in accordance with code of Massachusetts regulations, that's something that can be submitted and we can get a sort of legal opinion on when that 40 to five day period would begin. my understanding uh would be that it would start when we actually sign that form acknowledging receipt of the materials that would make sense to me but we don't have a clear answer on that yet but i guess i would just leave it at it's really it's at the board's discretion to decide if you if you do want to submit a reckon recommendation relative to that pedestrian bridge okay um thank you i mean i love i love having an answer we don't really have the answer that i think
Michael Capuano	We want it, but at the same time, the question is, based on what this is, and kind of what the role of planning board is, as it relates to this, this project. As 1 member, I don't need to make a recommendation to DCR a mass dot on the sufficiency of the. Bridge yeah, I don't know. Make it a nice bridge. I'm sure they're going to comply with all of the requirements that they're required to comply with. To make it a nice bridge that I think everybody wants generally. So that's that's kind of where I'm on on this. I'm happy to vote to generally approve the, the application package. Yeah, Michael.
Michael McNeley	I think Lynn was 1st, if you want to give her, I didn't, I didn't see lens, but yeah.
Lynn Richards	um so you know i'm a cyclist um and so i i i'm over pedestrian bridges all the time in the boston area and so i can take you on a tour of pedestrian bridges that 100 meet all the requirements of mass dot and they're terrible um and so paying attention to the design of the bridge and how it meets the somerville side i actually think is the role of the committee think of how much time we spend talking about a building and how the building is going to look how we're going to frame the rooftop or or the windows because we all intuitively know that a building is going to be there for a while and how it's faced greets the street and greets the public realm makes a big difference. The same can be said for a bridge. So I really appreciated uh steve's research on 91 i also did a little bit of research as well on it and i do think that we have the the the wherewithal like we have the authority if we wanted to talk a little bit about the design There was one piece that I found kind of frustrating is that the first guy from Tetra Tech saying I've been working on this for eight years and we're at 20 percent design. Now, in my world, in urban design, when an engineer says 20 percent design, that is 20 percent design with cost elements. But they have it all sketched out of what they want it to be. And now they're going through the very fine kind of blueprint. So I was a little disappointed that we didn't get more information on what the bridge was going to look like as it grounds into Somerville. I mean, I understand your position, Michael. and pedestrian bridge, good, but we want to have a beautiful pedestrian bridge. This is a once in a, this is a unique opportunity for Somerville and for this bridge and shouldn't we, are we the only local voice here that will, I mean, yes, there's public comment and as citizens we can certainly engage, but you know, as an institution, we might be able to influence is like, let's have a beautiful bridge, just not a nice bridge, but a beautiful bridge. So that's, that's what I've been thinking about. This isn't a hill I'm going to die on. But I do feel that we should look at the design in the same way that we look at the design of all the buildings and the developments that that we assess. Thank you.
Michael Capuano	Um, I appreciate that. I don't know if we have the design that we need, or if we can get 1 in the timetable that we would need to make a recommendation. Um. But, but I, but I appreciate the, you know, the sentiment and the concern I, you know, if if it was really our. Opportunity to weigh in on the, you know. The way the bridge looks. Yeah, I'm happy to. I'm happy to do that. I don't know if we have that material and I don't know if we will have that material by the time we. I'm perfectly happy to have a zip line going across the district. It's just me. Michael Michael and then Amelia.
Michael McNeley	As another member, I also would give a positive vote for the zip line. So just for future contention. So I also would like to echo a couple of thoughts that Lynn had in there as well and highlight that Stephen was kind enough to point us to a little bit of language also in the 3.10 CMR, I believe specifically section 9.13 subsection 5. And I'm sure my colleagues have also probably looked at this because we're all code nerds. In there, it does talk a little bit about our just general acknowledgement of materials. And I think, Mr. Chair, you've already kind of set a certain tone that that might be the best thing for us to do. And I wouldn't be opposed to that specifically because it does highlight two other things that we could be weighing in on specifically if we were to write a letter of recommendation. And they were one, uh whether or not this would be detrimental to public rights in thailand's and great ponds and i know i as one board member did not see sufficient materials to help me feel one way or the other on that and at the end of the day i probably would hope that the city would be able to provide some resources to help us make that assessment the second one looks a little bit more like it's in our standard purview somewhere where i'd feel a little more comfortable uh waiting in for lack of intention on pun there. And it specifically says, serves a proper public purpose, except in the case of water dependent use projects entirely on private tidelands, right. And so that's where we get into this use as a pedestrian and biking. And you know, I, as one member and as one member of the public here, Um, I have very much hope to see that particular connection improve as a pedestrian user. Like it is not always great to cross that waterway with the options that we have available today. So I know I would love the opportunity to. be able to put our weight and support behind this. But I think to member Richard's point, I think we need a little bit more material to do that. And if we don't feel like we have sufficient time to do that and the applicant doesn't desire our support and input, then perhaps we just fall back to acknowledging receipt. But I know as one member, I would love to have the opportunity to put some weight behind it.
Michael Capuano	And then, Amelia, did you also have your hand raised? I don't see the Simpson-Ange anymore.
Amelia Aboff	Thank you. I've got a tiny hand raised also.
Michael Capuano	That's the most important one.
Amelia Aboff	I can maybe come down a little bit in the middle on some of the points that Lynn and Michael made. My perspective as one member is that I would not go to bat about the aesthetics of the bridge, but I would happily go to bat about the functionality of the connectivity of the bridge. So, you know, whether I don't think we're going to talk DCR into choosing a better aesthetic design personally, but I think we might be able to choose to nudge them into some kind of more optimal, you know, actual connectivity. I'm not sure, but that's my baseline assumption about sort of where the parameters of DCR's flexibility will lie. COB, Bethany Collins, And then second if we're not going to have the opportunity to review additional materials one sort of middle path that I wonder if satisfies any of the intentionality here might be to. COB, Bethany Collins, You know me, I always go back to summer vision right as our sort of the the baseline document for the board's role. COB, Bethany Collins, To go through summer vision and call out the you know. Sage Robins, Three to nine principles of summer vision that are most relevant to this and sort of issue a letter back to DC are saying we understand design is at the state here the. Sage Robins, components of our strategic plan as a community that we hope this will respond to or be in supportive or you know, in the absence of sufficient information. Sage Robins, I that that would be my thought on how we might put a little bit more of some reveals.
Michael Capuano	priorities out into dcr's sphere of consideration so i'm just spitballing but thank you yeah i'm trying to figure out what if any action we agent steve are we on a time clock to do this for the chapter 91 issue and that's eight and twenty percent you know we can probably make a recommendation sometime in 2045 and they might have you know you know some some uh you know pylons pictured
SPEAKER_03	Yeah, I again, I wish I had a clear answer. You guys, you know, it's laid out as a 45 day period or 30 days to hold a public hearing if you want to do that. And then 15 additional days after that hearing tissue recommendation, but really 45 days. And I wish I could tell you more concretely that it's that clock has started or not. But I think what you could do is, you know, you could
Michael Capuano	vote to acknowledge receipt of materials and then also in the motion put in something like um and and request additional materials to you know inform any any written recommendation that's a good idea and and concurrent with that vote um see if we can get an opinion from the solicitor's office as to when that clock expires for us to be able to do that if we can get it in by the 10 to meeting or something sure.
SPEAKER_03	I'd be glad to follow up with a lot of.
Michael Capuano	Okay, so I think we can take a vote tonight to acknowledge the materials and request the opportunity to receive additional renderings or whatever. They might be. In conjunction with an opinion on whether we can. weigh in a little bit more deeply on 10-2. Does that make sense to people or am I off the reservation now? Okay. Okay. In that case, I move to acknowledge receipt of the materials and also see if we might be able to get additional materials in such that we can make a timely recommendation by our 10-2 meeting on any additional materials that we might be able to get from DCR and NASDAQ.
Lynn Richards	Can Michael, I'm wondering if we can't be a little bit more specific. I really like Michael's comment about marsh grasses. So, to understand better about how the Somerville side of the bridge connects to the land and where the. like I think when we ask for additional materials just to narrow it down and I again they have conceptual drawings I'm sure of it but to share like I don't need to understand the pylons in the river I'm sure that's up to code but I want to see how the bridge connects to the park And what's the lighting? What's the seating? People are going to be fishing off the bridge. Are there going to be little bump outs along the bridge? So again, to understand more of the conceptual design of it so we can better assess that the bridge is meeting the goals of connectivity and vibrancy a la Amelia's comments.
Michael Capuano	Sounds good. Steve, let's modify that recommendation or that request to mirror what Lynn just said. Sure.
SPEAKER_04	Thank you.
Michael Capuano	And I incorporate that into the motion. Seconded by Amelia. Steve, we have a roll call.
SPEAKER_03	Shahan Habib. Aye. Lynn Richards.
Lynn Richards	Aye.
SPEAKER_03	Luc Schuster.

SPEAKER_03	Michael McNeely. Aye. Amelia Aba. Aye. And Michael Capuano.
Michael Capuano	Hi, okay, see what happens by October. I don't think there's anything else on the agenda tonight. Is there I'm missing anything.
SPEAKER_03	Nope, I believe you got it all. I mean, obviously there's that board administration item that. Is kind of open if anyone wants to bring anything up.
Michael Capuano	It's a more formulaic way of my usual question of if anybody has anything they would like to add to the good of the meeting. seeing none uh at 6 40 steve we should have made a bet we did not um the the chair moves to adjourn seconded by amelia we can have roll call john abby hi lynn richards hi Luc Schuster hi michael mcneely hi amelia abar hi and michael capuano I see you all on 10 to, and I hope we have an additional guest.
