Minutes are not verbatim,
unless in quotes “” – If the name of a citizen making a comment was not
requested by the Planning Board Chairman, the reference to their name will be
known as ‘Citizen’ or ‘Abutter’ depending on whom is speaking. ************************ Public
Hearing Began at 7:00 pm
Amendment
to a Conditional use Permit – Add a 50’ x 150’ Storage Building – Map 1, Lot
24A (140 Deering Ridge Road) – Shawn McLeod, Applicant; Adex Properties,
Property Owner Mr.
and Mrs. McLeod were present on Zoom for the public hearing.
Roger opened the public hearing by stating the
public hearing was for an additional storage building on Map 1, Lot 24A. He asked Mr. McLeod to let anyone in attendance
know what it was he would like to do.
Mr. McLeod stated that he wanted to add an additional
storage building to the right side of the existing building, if you are looking
at it; it will be a mirror image, 50’ x 150’. He said this was to expand their storage capability. He said it will not only be the same size as
the existing, but the same color as well.
Roger A. stated that it was basically going to be for
motorcycles, 4 wheelers, etc. Mr. McLeod
stated it would mostly be for personal watercraft, boats and jet skis, but
there would also be what Roger mentioned.
Roger asked if there were any questions for Mr.
McLeod?
Abutter Michael Lauziere (Map 1, Lot 25A-2) – “I do Sir, I am Mike. I would like to know what kind of public
access will be granted as we expand this property. I am grateful that Shaun is
being successful in his business, that’s awesome. I live two lots up from Shawn,
and of course it does change the neighborhood experience, so I would like to
hear more information about what it would be like for the public. What are the hours
going to be? Any additional lighting? Because during the fall season and non-leaf
season, the lighting from the property does expand into the neighborhood. It’s questions
like that, I would like to hear a little bit more about that.”
Mr. McLeod stated that the hours were not going to
change. He said the lighting is not going to change, he isn’t adding any additional
lighting. He stated that everything is remaining exactly the same, just more capacity for storage. He added that there is no
public access, when the business is closed the gates are locked and nobody is
allowed in. Page 1 of 12 Shapleigh

Abutter
Michael Lauziere – “Ok. There is
a lot that is between your property for the business and my property, that I believe
you also own. Is that correct?”
Mr.
McLeod stated, “That is correct, yup.”
Abutter
Michael Lauziere – “Ok. Does the
business plan include ever expanding into that lot, that serves as the only
real buffer to the two properties?”
Mr.
McLeod stated that originally when he purchased the property, yes, it was to
gain some access to the back because of the lot coverage. He said he planned on using the back of that
lot to put up this building, and then after purchasing the property, the lot
coverage requirement changed and he didn’t need to use the lot. He said that at
this point, no, he had no plans to have anymore buildings. Mr. Lauziere thanked
Mr. McLeod.
Roger
A. asked if there were any additional questions? There were none.
The
public hearing closed at 7:05 pm.
**************************
Roger
A. asked if there were any changes to the minutes from September 8, 2020? There were none. The Planning Board minutes from
Tuesday, September 8th were accepted by members as read.

**************************
Amendment
to a Conditional use Permit – Add a 50’ x 150’ Storage Building – Map 1, Lot 24A
(140 Deering Ridge Road) – Shawn McLeod, Applicant; Adex Properties, Property
Owner Mr.
and Mrs. McLeod were present on Zoom for the review of the application.
Prior
to this evenings meeting was a site inspection by board members.
Provided
along with the application, was a sketch plan which depicted the existing structure
for the business, a 50’ x 100’ cement pad for storage of vehicles, two existing
driveways (one for personal use), parking area, existing well and septic/leachfield
location, locations of the existing 50’ x 100’ cold storage building and
proposed location of the new building which is also, 50’ x 100’. The distance
to the side lot line of the proposed structure was depicted as 50 feet and
distance to the rear lot line is 143 feet. There will be a corridor between the two storage structures, the corridor
being 45 feet in width.
The
detailed description of the project is as follows: Add another 50’ x 150’ steel storage building
next to the existing 50’ x 150’ building. No heat, no electricity.
Roger
A. began by asking Mr. McLeod to once again let the audience know what he was
intending the do, in case someone new had come to the meeting. Shapleigh

Mr.
McLeod stated he would like to add a second storage building beside the one
that exists at this time, same size as the existing, same color, same
everything. He said it would be an additional 50’ x 150’.
Roger
A. stated it was mentioned earlier that there would be no power. Mr. McLeod stated, “No power.”
Roger A. began the review of the Basic Performance Standards. 105-20 “Applicability
of standards; prohibited uses.” A. These
standards shall apply to all new or expanded uses of land and buildings which
are listed as permitted or conditional uses in Article IV of this chapter. B. Prohibited
uses include all uses which would be obnoxious or injurious because of odor,
dust, smoke, refuse matter, fumes, noise, vibration of waste material, or which
would be dangerous to the health and safety of the community or which would
disturb or annoy the community, notwithstanding any other provision of this
chapter and applicable state and federal laws and regulations. C. Plans
for the effective control and/or elimination of the same, shall be presented to
the Planning Board for approval. When the effects of a use are uncertain, the
Code Enforcement Officer, after prior notification to and at the expense of the
applicant, shall employ such independent recognized consultant as necessary to
ensure compliance with all requirements of this Code specifically related to
the public health, safety and welfare and the abatement of nuisances. The estimated
costs of such studies shall be deposited with the Town Clerk prior to their
undertaking. 105-21
– Traffic. Roger A. stated access to the site was safe,
this location was previously approved on the original CUP. Site distances can
be met in both directions. The minimum requirement is 245 feet at 35 mph. 105-22
– Noise. Roger A. stated any noise generated shall
meet the sound pressure level limit of 60 dB(A) between the hours of 7:00 am
and 10:00pm and 45 dB(A) between 10:00 pm and 7:00 am. 105-23
– Dust, fumes, vapors and
gases. Roger A. stated there is no dust, fumes, vapors or gases, generated
by this activity. 105-24
– Odors. Roger A. stated there will be no obnoxious
odors generated. 105-25
– Glare. Roger A. stated there shall be no lighting added
to the new structure, or the existing structures. 105-26
– Stormwater
runoff. Roger A. stated the original approval
had a stormwater report, as well as a letter from Carl Beal PE, for the
amendment adding the first 50’ x 100’ structure to the property, which stated
that the first additional 50’ x 100’ structure would have no adverse effects. A
stormwater management plan was designed to keep the water mostly on the property,
with minimal runoff going offsite. 105-27
– Erosion
control. Roger A. stated Carl Beal, PE,
also designed the erosion control methods to be used for the previous approvals.
105-28
– Setbacks
and screening. Roger
A. stated existing vegetation will remain along the perimeter of the property, there
are woods around the property, except on the roadside. Roger said it is
therefore, well screened.

105-29
–
Explosive materials. Roger
A. stated, there shall be no propane tanks stored as stated during the last approval,
and this will remain for this approval as well. 105-30
– Water
quality. Roger A. stated, there is no outdoor
storage of fuel to affect water quality. 105-31
– Preservation
of landscape; landscaping of parking and storage areas. Roger A. stated no changes are
being made to the existing parking area, there is no outside storage associated
with this activity. 105-32
-
Relation of proposed building to the environment. Roger A. stated the building conforms well
with others in the surrounding area, and it matches the existing storage building. 105-33
– Refuse
disposal. Roger A. stated there was no
additional refuse generated by putting up the additional storage building. 105-34
– Access
Control to Route 109. Roger A. stated this is not applicable. 105-43
– Off-street
parking and loading. Roger A. stated there would be no changes to the existing off-street
parking. Additional vehicles are going
to be parked inside the new structure. 105-46 – Sanitary provisions. Roger A. stated there is an existing State
approved septic system on site for the business, which has no bearing on the addition
of the new structure. 105-47 – Signs
and billboards. Roger A. stated that all signage must be
permitted and approved through the Code Enforcement Office. 105-52 – Water Quality Protection – No activity
shall runoff, seep, percolate or wash into surface or groundwaters, so as to
contaminate, pollute or harm such waters. Roger A.
stated that this is reviewed due to the number of gallons of fuel that could be
on site within the vehicles. Roger stated that with the additional vehicles
being stored, there is a possibility that there could be over 3000 gallons of
fuel between all the vehicles.
Steve F. asked Mr. McLeod
what he believed the average vehicle would hold with respect to fuel that will
be stored on site? Mr. McLeod stated, “It
is awful tough to say. Depending on the SeaDoo’s or personal watercraft, some
of them hold 7 gallons and some of them hold 15. We just stored some boats and
I am not sure what the boat tanks are. The average pontoon boat probably has
the regular 5 gallon can but some of them are getting up to 20-gallon on board tanks.
So, its so hard to say what’s on board. These days we try to run the tanks as
low as we can.”
Steve F. asked Mr. McLeod if he believed he would store 300 units there? Mrs. McLeod stated, “A full size boat, if they were all
full size boats, it would be about 50 boats. But some of them are the
watercrafts, so if they were all single place watercrafts, it would probably be
a hundred of them. A good mixture would be 75 in each building. I would say it
would be under 300”.
Steve F., “So if you had 150 units, doing some rough math, you
would have to have some serious storage capacity in those units to meet that 3000
gallon threshold”. Mr. and Mrs. McLeod agreed, it seemed like a lot.
Shapleigh
Planning Board Minutes – 9/22/2020 Page

Roger A. stated the reason he was coming up with the 3000, was based
on the fact the last amendment for the CUP was to allow 350 vehicles. He said if that was the case, with 350 at 5
gallons that is 1750 gallons of fuel. So, if one more building is added, we would be talking 3000 gallons on site as a minimum. Steve F.
added, “If they were all full”. Roger
said, yes, and had 5 gallons in them. Steve said, “Yup”.
Ann H. asked Mr. McLeod if he required, by contract, that anyone
he stored jet ski’s for, that they remove the battery and get rid of the gas
before he stores them for the season? Mr.
McLeod stated that no, he usually has the batteries in them because he has to
run them to winterize them. He said, “We do disconnect all batteries, and as far
as gas goes, we try to keep them as low as we can because of the quality of
fuel we have today.”
Madge B. asked Mr. McLeod if he actually stored gas on site, so he
can provide gas for the vehicles? Mr.
McLeod stated, “No, absolutely not”.
Roger A. stated the reason he is bringing this up is because of
the access way alongside of the building, it is extremely narrow. He said because of this the fire department
will never be able to go to the back of the building. He said they would have
to fight any fire at that building from the front. He said if they go alongside
of the building, they will end up stuck in the back if something was to happen.
Roger felt this was an issue. Roger believed this should be cleared with the Fire
Chief, to be sure he has no issue with the amount of fuel that is likely to be
stored on sight; and if there was a fire, the fact they can only fight it from
the front. Roger said if they go
alongside the building, they could get trapped in the back and not have a way
out.
Mr. McLeod stated that you can get completely around the existing
building. He said that he drove his trailer truck around the building. Roger
said that may be true, but if there was a fire you would not be able to. Roger
stated that you cannot drive that close to the fire. Mr. McLeod said, “Right, I
guess. I have more boundaries around the
side of the property than technically required. I think we are only supposed to
have 15 feet and I kept 30 feet to the side of the building.” Roger said, “If there was a fire, do you think
it would be comfortable to take a fire truck and drive it 30 feet from the
building that is on fire.” Mr. McLeod
stated, “Well if they need to get to the other end, then yes, its open at the
far end.” Roger asked, “But if something
was to happen, how would you get your truck back?” Mr. McLeod asked what he said? Roger said, “If something was to happen, a
wall falls down, could you get that truck back.” Mr. McLeod said, “Yes, because you will be
able to get down both sides of both buildings, its open in the back, so you can
get down around the embankment and come all the way around the building.” Mr. Mcleod said you will be able to go down
both walls of the existing building, you won’t be able to go down the left hand
wall as you are facing the building with a fire truck, but you can go down the
righthand wall of the existing building, which is only a short distance apart. He said you would be able to go down the
right side of the building. Roger stated, that due to the difference in height,
he did not think the Fire Chief would run a truck down through there. He believed
it was a safety concern. Roger thought the Fire Chief should sign off saying
that he is Shapleigh
Planning Board Minutes – 9/22/2020 Page

comfortable with what is there. Mr. McLeod said, “Ok”.
Roland L. asked Roger A. what he was asking for at this
point? Roger stated, that the Fire Chief
gives it a blessing, so if there was to be an issue, that if we grant the permit, he accepts what
is there. Roland said, “And that is
based on the supposition there will be 3000 or more gallons of fuel”. Roger said that there was a probability. Roland said, “Ok”. Roland stated, “If Shawn doesn’t believe that
there will be that much fuel involved, are you feeling like we still could
require the Chief to sign off”. Roger
said the amended Conditional Use Permit that is in existence at this time,
allows for 350 vehicles and if they hold 5 gallons in each one, some could be
more or less, if that is the average, that is 1700 gallons. Mr. McLeod stated
that was all told on his property, not necessarily in that building. He said
that he could never fit 350 vehicles unless he was storing motorcycles solely. He believed 350 was considering his entire
property at that time. Mr. McLeod noted that the board was at the property this
evening, and they saw what was there. He
said not all that is there is staying, some arrive and then leave. He said they
were trying to account for every vehicle on the property at that time. Roger
said, “Ok. The original one was for 100,
and then when we put in the storage building it went up by 250.” Mrs. McLeod stated, “Right, I think we just
wanted to make sure we didn’t exceed it by having a parking lot full of boats
that needed to be worked on.” Roger
said, “Right”. Mr. McLeod stated that he
did not believe it would double again, he put a big number out there originally
to make sure they were covered for what was actually in the parking lot and in
the building.
Steve F. asked, “Shawn you’ve been doing this for quite a few
years, what do you suppose the number is that you do store in your existing
building”? Mrs. McLeod said it varied;
if it were all full size boats, it would be 50 boats. She said some people will store with them one
year and not the next, so if you had one pontoon boat this year, next year you
might replace it with 3 single place watercrafts. She thought it was an average of 75 boats per
building. Steve F. said, “Ok”. Mr. McLeod agreed saying it was big boats and
small personal watercraft.
Steve F. stated that he believed Roger’s concern was with regard
to what they have stored and in case there was a fire, the board could
certainly have the Fire Chief give his blessing. He asked what would be the cure for this in
his opinion. Roger A. said that he just wanted to ensure that the Fire Chief didn’t
have an issue, it could be a safety issue and that was his concern. He said, “One
building will be quite a bit higher than the other, therefore, the access to
get around that for a fire truck, if something were to happen, I don’t think
the Fire Chief would allow a fire truck to go to the back of the property”. He
said that the truck would likely be trapped out there, not having a chance to
get back to the front. He stated that he couldn’t see having a building that
close, and allowing a half million dollar vehicle stuck out back.
Ann H. asked if one building is on fire, or the fire hops over to
the other building, are there any other buildings in the surrounding area that
could be affected if the fire
Shapleigh
Planning Board Minutes – 9/22/2020 Page
7 of 12
department couldn’t put out the fire? Roger said, no, the other building in the
front is far away, so he didn’t believe it would be affected. Ann said, then the only total loss would be just
his property. Roger said, “True”.
Roland L. asked if the board was able to proceed with the
application, and make it a condition that an endorsement from the Fire Chief is
a requirement? Roger said the board could.
Steve F. asked for the record, what part of the ordinance is the board
citing, in case this comes up in the future? He said he wants to be able to look at the ordinance and say this is why
we brought this in, in this particular case. Roger stated it is under the health
and safety of the community, as well as stated earlier, water quality. He said if something were to catch on fire
and you have 3000 gallons of fuel, or something gets dumped onto the ground,
you have an environmental issue. Steve thought if it was on fire it would explode.
Roger agreed. Steve said that he wasn’t
saying it would not be an environmental issue if both buildings were a total
loss, but he thought if there were a lot of fuel in the building and there is a
fire, it would burn. Roger agreed and
stated that was the reason he did not believe the fire truck would be going out
back.
Mrs. McLeod stated that an average of 75 boats with 5 gallons of
gas each, that is only 375 gallons of gas per building. Roger agreed, if they
were held to the 75. Mrs. McLeod stated
that they couldn’t fit too much more than that. She said if they were full size boats there would only be 50 of them.
Roger said the only reason he said this is because the original permit was 100 vehicles
kept on the slab. He said when they put in the new storage building, the amount
was increased by 250 for a total of 350. He said if the 250 was for one storage building, and you put in a new
storage building the exact same size, it seems to reason that you are looking
for another 250 vehicles. Roger asked if this were true? Both Mr. and Mrs. McLeod both said,
definitely not.
Roland L. stated that it sounds like the applicant did what the board
encourages a lot of applicants to do and that is give the largest case
scenario, so they are not called on the carpet at some later point because they
exceeded the number. He said that given that is what he thinks happened in this
situation, and they are telling the board that no, they are not going to have
more than 350, he leans toward what they are saying, based on their experience and
knowing what their capacity is. He said the board often asks applicants to
increase their hours of operation or increase the number of units that they
could possibly have for sale, so they are not put in the position that they are
called on the carpet later on. Roger agreed.
Mrs. McLeod stated that in the winter, both of the buildings will
be full. She said that in the winter they are also very busy with snowmobiles. She
said that they can have a huge number of snowmobiles on site at one time. She
said if you consider both buildings being full, plus a yard full of snowmobiles,
that is where the number could have come from. Mr. McLeod added that the snowmobiles
are never in the building, they are always outside.

Roger A. asked Mr. McLeod if the number that he was approved for,
during the last review of 350 vehicles would be sufficient? Mr. McLeod stated that he believed that was
still a good number. Mrs. McLeod agreed. Roger said, “That’s fine”.
Roger A. stated that he had no other concerns.
Roger
A. then reviewed §105-73.G ‘Standards applicable to conditional uses’ and made findings
of fact. Standards applicable
to conditional uses. It shall be the
responsibility of the applicant to demonstrate that the proposed use meets all
of the following criteria. The Board
shall approve the application unless it makes written findings that one or more
of these criteria have not been met.
1) The use will not have an adverse impact on spawning grounds, fish,
aquatic life, birds or other wildlife habitat. Roger A. stated, it will not. 2) The use will conserve shore cover and visual, as well as actual, access
to water bodies. Roger A. stated this is not
applicable. 3) The use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Roger A. stated it is, the Comp Plan wants small businesses in town. 4) Traffic access to the site is safe. Roger A. stated it is, the site distances meet the minimum in both directions.
5) The
site design is in conformance with all municipal flood hazard protection
regulations. Roger A. stated it is, the project is not in the flood zone. 6) Adequate
provision for the disposal of all wastewater and solid waste has been
made. Roger A. stated a State approved
Septic System is on site, and any solid waste will be removed by the applicants
as previously approved. Used Oil shall be removed by Cyn Environmental
Services. 7) Adequate
provision for the transportation, storage and disposal of any hazardous materials
has been made. Roger A. stated the hazardous
material is fuel and batteries, which shall remain inside the vehicles. 8) A stormwater drainage system capable of
handling fifty-year storm without adverse impact on adjacent properties has
been designed. Roger A. stated Carl
Beal, PE, created a stormwater plan for the original application and the previous
amendment. Madge B. stated that the storm water
design now needs to include both buildings. She asked if the design did include both buildings? Roger said that it
was adequate for one of the buildings. He stated that one building is on the
higher ground, there shouldn’t be an issue to be able to handle the additional building.
Madge asked if they were putting drainage around the new building, so it drains
into the stormwater system? Mr. McLeod
stated that yes, it would drain into the current system that he had on site.
Madge said, that when it comes off the roof, does it go into the system? Mr. McLeod stated that it did. 9) Adequate provisions to control soil erosion
and sedimentation have been made. Roger A. stated they have. 10) There is adequate water supply to
meet the demands of the proposed use and for fire protection purposes. Roger
A. stated this location is not far from the Emery Mills fire hydrant. 11) The provisions for buffer strips
and on-site landscaping provide adequate protection to neighboring properties
from detrimental features of the development, such as noise, glare, Shapleigh
Planning Board Minutes – 9/22/2020 Page

fumes, dust, odors and the like. Roger A. stated there are no changes being
made to the existing vegetation. 12) All performance standards in this
chapter applicable to the proposed use will be met. Roger A. stated they shall with
conditions.
Roger stated the conditions of approval, amended from the original
approval, are as follows:
1) The
hours of operation shall continue to be Monday thru Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00
p.m., Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Saturday 9:00 a.m. to noon. 2) The
waste oil removal shall be done by Cyn Environmental Services. 3) The
maximum allowed vehicles/units on site shall be 350. 4) No collection of unserviceable parts
construed as junk to be stored on site, as per the original approval. 5) No propane tanks shall be stored in the cold storage building. 6) A building permit shall be obtained from
the Code Enforcement Office prior to erecting the building. Any change to the
existing signage shall also be done thru the Code Enforcement Office.
Maggie M made the motion to approve
the Conditional Use Permit to add a 50’ x 150’ cold storage building, no electricity,
no heat, on Map 1, Lot 24A as reviewed by the board and per the plans provided,
with 6 conditions. Madge B. 2nd
the motion. All members are in favor. By a vote of 5 – 0, the motion passed
unanimously.
Nothing further was discussed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Findings of Facts
1. The
owner of Shapleigh Tax Map 1, Lot 24A (140 Deering Ridge Road), is Adex Properties
LLC, of 185 Sunset Road, Springvale, Maine 04083. The applicant is Shawn McLeod
of 140 Deering Ridge Road, Shapleigh, Maine 04076.
2. The
property is located in the General Purpose District and according to the assessor,
the property contains 4.26 acres.
3. The
applicant is before the board for an amendment to a Conditional Use Permit to
add a 50’ x 150’ cold storage building to the property.
4. Provided, was a sketch plan which depicted the existing structure
for the business, a 50’ x 100’ cement pad for storage of vehicles, two existing
driveways (one for personal use), parking area, existing well and septic/leachfield
location, location of the existing 50’ x 100’ cold storage building and
proposed location of the new building which is also, 50’ x 100’. The distance
to the side lot line of the proposed structure was depicted as 50 feet and
distance to the rear lot line is 143 feet. There will be a corridor between the two storage structures, the corridor
being 45 feet in width.

5. Provided
in September 2017, was a letter from Carl V. Beal, P.E. which stated that the construction
of the additional building at that time, would result in no negative impacts
due to stormwater runoff to downstream properties, tributaries, or water
bodies. During the Planning Board review on September 22, 2020, the board
concluded the same measures used for that building would also work for the
addition of this new 50’ x 150’ foot building.
6. The
Planning Board concluded should there be a fire in either the existing storage
building, or the proposed storage building, additional property damage should
not occur, since the other structure on site is a great distance away. In addition, water quality should not be
affected, as gasoline shall likely explode rather than permeate into the ground
water supply.
7. The detailed description of the project is as follows: Add another 50’ x 150’ steel storage building
next to the existing 50’ x 150’
building. No heat, no electricity.
8. The board reviewed
the Basic Performance Standards and the board concurred the application met all
the standards imposed.
9. The
board reviewed Zoning Ordinance §105-73, Section G, ‘Standards applicable to
conditional uses’ and concurred the application and information as presented
met the performance standards in this chapter, with conditions.
10. A notice was
mailed to all abutters within 500 feet of the property on September 9, 2020. Meetings were held on September 8, 2020 and
September 22, 2020. A site inspection
and public hearing were held on September 22, 2020.
11. The Planning Board unanimously agreed to
approve the amendment to the Conditional Use Permit to add a 50’ x 150’ cold
storage building on the property with six conditions.
12. The
conditions of approval are:
1) The
hours of operation shall continue to be Monday thru Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00
p.m., Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Saturday 9:00 a.m. to noon. 2) The
waste oil removal shall be done by Cyn Environmental Services. 3) The
maximum allowed vehicles/units on site shall be 350. 4) No
collection of unserviceable parts construed as junk to be stored on site, as
per the original approval. 5) No
propane tanks shall be stored in the cold storage building. 6) A
building permit shall be obtained from the Code Enforcement Office prior to
erecting the building. Any change to the existing signage shall also be done
thru the Code Enforcement Office.
Motion:
After careful consideration and a
review of all material presented to the Board, including the review of the
Zoning Ordinance ‘Basic Performance Standards’, and §105-73,
