Summary

The Planning Board affirmed approval for a path of travel to repair a previously approved seawall at 14 Shore Road (U01/014), finding the applicants met zoning criteria and making issuance of a Shoreland Building permit a condition of approval.

The Town of Boothbay Planning Board on May 20 affirmed a previously approved plan allowing property owners Martha Simpson and Robert Jacobs to access 14 Shore Road to repair an existing seawall.

Chair Bruce Bowler presented the board’s findings of fact, noting the applicants demonstrated legal interest in the property and that the deed is recorded at the Lincoln County Registry of Deeds (Book 5948, Page 165). On motions by Bowler and a second by Vice Chair Lucian Laurie Jr., the board voted 5-0 to approve the application, concluding it met the criteria set forth in the Town of Boothbay Zoning Ordinance. The approval is subject to the applicants obtaining a Shoreland Zone building permit from the Code Enforcement Office.

The minutes record that the access for the repair will be limited to town-owned property only and that the applicants and contractor must not trespass on abutting properties; the contractor identified in the minutes is Pat Farrin and Sons Dirt Works, represented by Kipp Farrin.
