[MassHistPres] Demo Delay

[jack mac donald]

Hi All,

 

Just want to run this by the group.  Bourne is holding a demo delay hearing
to discuss whether or not a 125+/- year old barn should be preserved.  As a
Commission member I contacted the homeowner to look at it and he informed me
it was torn down "5 years ago."  It was demo'd prior to the town's demo
delay bylaw being in effect.  To me it seems like a huge waste of time and
recourses to have a phony hearing and what, chastise the homeowner??  I
don't think it's the Commission's business to scold homeowners for past
deeds.  I was also told by the Commission chair it, "Has to be approved."
Yeah!?  I said for the record I vote to not allow the demo!!  Has anyone had
a similar experience?
