This requires the two dolphin pilings. Sadi Spadifino spoke against request, stating a marina type area being created, blockage of view, obstruction of a beautiful canal. Several in support of request stated that this is a boating community, dolphins create a safety situation, view will not be obstructed. It was noted that there currently are freestanding dolphins in the canal. Mr. Hagelmann felt Mr. Corum should withdraw application completely, while Chairman Bresnahan stated that the Planning Board is currently reviewing all town codes, of which dolphins will at some point be reviewed. He suggested that the issue be tabled until that time, whereby the Board can then make a decision based on any changes that may be made to the ordinance.
