Summary

A prospective operator described plans for a small-scale automotive dismantling and online parts sales business at 1230 Town Line Road, emphasizing limited on-site inventory (3–4 cars), internal dismantling, containment of fluids and minimal public traffic.

A presenter who identified himself as Tim Myesock told the board he plans to open an automotive recycling and e-commerce parts business at 1230 Town Line Road that would keep a small queue of 3–4 vehicles, dismantle components inside the existing structure and post parts for sale online. He said fluids and hazardous items would be stored in approved containers and removed to authorized scrap facilities.

Myesock acknowledged neighborhood concerns about salvage‑style yards and emphasized a cleaner, low‑profile operation. “We have no retail storefronts. There’ll be minimal to no traffic. It’ll be all online presence,” he said. Board members asked about limits on vehicle counts, permitted uses in the industrial zoning district and how oil and battery wastes would be handled; staff said the enterprise is a permitted manufacturing/dismantling use in the general industrial district but that site-plan review will follow.

Next steps: the presenter was encouraged to submit a formal site plan and permitting documents; staff said they will verify storage and hazardous-waste handling plans and advise on any required state permits for handling fluids and batteries.
