Minutes from the September meeting were approved.

 

Discussion centered on reviewing the status of projects which were brought before the Commission during the past year.  These included the Prewitt garage conversion in Mansfield Hollow, the bridge and pathway proposals submitted by Lon Hultgren for Mansfield Centre and the Shed construction by Susannah Richards at 974 Storrs Rd., Spring Hill.  It was agreed that members would drive past these to check the current status.

December 11                                              

The Meeting was called to order at 8:00 p.m. in Conference Room C of the Mansfield Town Hall

 

Attending:   Members: Gail Bruhn, Isabel Atwood, Anita Bacon, Jason McGarry and David Spencer

                  

In response to our prior meeting proposal to review the status of projects brought before the commission in 2006, members commented on the following:

Prewitt garage conversion in Mansfield Hollow – project appears to be complete and comments by neighbors have been favorable.

Bridge and pathway proposals submitted by Lon Hultgren for Mansfield Centre – no action has been taken

Shed construction by Susannah Richards at 974 Storrs Rd., Spring Hill – the shed cannot be seen from the road, and is therefore not a concern.

 

The Crain house was briefly discussed, as it appears that work continues on the house without Historic District Commission involvement.  Kurt Hirsch will be contacted.

 

The new meeting schedule for 2008 was submitted by Mary Stanton.

The meeting was adjourned at 8:30 pm.

 

Respectively submitted,

 

Gail Bruhn

Chairman
