Planning board approves site-plan waiver for Saigon restaurant at 16–18 Exchange Street
Summary
David Lam, taking over the Saigon restaurant, will be allowed to reopen in-house dining without major construction after the planning board granted a waiver of site-plan review; board members advised him to coordinate on handicap parking and inspections before reopening.
David Lam told the planning board he is taking over the Saigon restaurant at 16–18 Exchange Street and plans to reopen the dining room after the COVID-era takeout period without major construction. He said seating is under 40; he does not plan to seek an alcohol license.
Board members asked about handicap parking and building-inspection requirements; they advised Lam to consult the building commissioner, the Department of Public Works or the Architectural Access Board (AAB), and to obtain a certificate of inspection before reopening. The board voted to grant the site-plan waiver.
Lam thanked board members and was told to follow up with town staff on any required permits or handicap parking accommodations.
