PUBLIC HEARING: REVIEW FOR TWO (2) DOLPHIN PILINGS, LOCATED TWENTY
. (20) FEET FROM SEAWALL, FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1103 RUSSELL
DRIVE., LOT 18. APPLICANT/OWNER: WILLIAM CORUM.
Mr. Corum was present to give an explanation to the Board of his
request for the two dolphin pilings, indicating that while he is
not presently living at the home, he rents home and would like to
install pilings in order that a potential renter could dock his
boat. Mr. Corum stated that he owns the middle unit and therefore
does not have enough dock space to dock a larger boat parallel,
therefor needing to dock it perpendicular. 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. Mr. Bresnahan
• let Mr. Corman decide if he wanted the Board to vote up or down on
the issue at this time, or table it until a future date. Mr. Corum
opted to table his request.
