The planning board approved Patricia Staples’s move of Farmer’s Cupboard to a building on Sebastian Road, finding parking adequate and no neighbor objections; the approval carries the standard $100 process fee and requires submitting two copies to staff.

Patricia Staples presented an application to move her long-running farm-stand business to 24 Sebastian Road, a commercial building with improved parking and refrigeration. The board reviewed parking, signage and neighborhood impacts and noted that adjacent property owners had signed in support; no speakers opposed the move.
