2009
It was moved, seconded and passed by unanimous voice vote to accept the April 28, 2009 minutes as presented and the May 19, 2009 correcting the date of the meeting on the minutes. ___________________________________________________________________________ Ms. Rousseau raised a question regarding the handling of minutes and a brief discussion followed between Ms. Rousseau and Chairman LeBlanc. Ms. Rousseau felt that they were the only ones who really knew what they said and they had no idea what an individual typed into the minutes. She felt a responsibility to the citizens of Portsmouth to make sure they get the most accurate minutes possible and that minutes should not be approved without the Board seeing the changes made. Chairman LeBlanc noted that the minutes had been approved as corrected and the corrections were made in accordance with the tape that was made of the meeting. The corrected minutes could be viewed in city hall or on line. He saw no reason to change the protocols that had been place for over 20 years ____________________________________________________________________________ B. Request for Extension -24 Central Avenue Mr. Grasso made a motion to grant an extension of the Special Exception through December 31, 2009, which was seconded by Mr. Parrott. Mr. Grasso stated that he remembered when the applicant had appeared and they had discussed that the initial timeframe would not be enough to complete the construction. He found this to be a reasonable request and Mr. Parrott concurred.
