I would guess that people watching right now probably dont
know that that warrant article is effectively null and void, McDevitt
said.
The article in question reads:
Are you in favor of the adoption of Amendment No. 3 as
proposed by the Pelham Planning Board to the Pelham Zoning
Ordinance, Article IX, Elderly Housing. This amendment eliminates
55+ housing but preserves 62+ Elderly housing, assisted living and Pinewood Derby winners
Congregate Care developments; Increases required land area from
10,000 to 15,000 square feet of usable land per unit; Increases
buffers to abutting properties from 50 to 100 feet with discretion
given to the Planning Board to require additional buffering; Requires
a clubhouse; Requires all units to be fully Americans with Disabilities
Act compliant.
McDevitt said that, due to an error in the planning department
certain legally required notification was not made.
He mentioned that the issue was brought to the selectmens
attention and legal action taken; he said that in any event,
regardless of the fact that it got 70 to 72 percent of the vote, it is as if
it didnt exist.
It is in the power of the selectmen to call for a special town
meeting to readdress the article, according to McDevitt.
He went on to explain that because the warrant article is void, that
the planning department will inevitably receive applications for 55+
housing.
He said that he did not think that the selectmen could take the
same article and put it to another vote. McDevitt said that if the
board desired, he would look into the matter with Town Attorney Crossover time for Webelo II Scouts
