Vice Chair William Oelfke moved the approval, which passed 5-0. The board also unanimously granted a site-plan approval and special permit for a single-family home on Map 72, Parcel A 1.3 on Parker Road in the North Shirley Village Business District, with seven specified trees to be planted--two softwoods with arborvitae on the north boundary, two hardwoods on the south, and three hardwoods along the frontage--and a two-foot stone wall reconstructed along the lot frontage to mimic historic walls along Parker Road.
