I ON SELECTMEN
+ Voted unanimously to approve an application from Dreadlocks Holidays d/b/a Pronto at 10 Broad St. seeking a common victuallers license for the take-out business. Applicant David Buchman also owns Stubby's on Broad Street and is the new business owner of Pronto.
+ Unanimously approved sewer user fee increases. The increases will raise existing rates for metered and unmetered accounts and monthly service charges by 41 percent each in order to offset a projected sewer revenue deficit. The new rates, proposed to fund the cost of upgrading the Surfside Wastewater Treatment Facility, become effective in FY08. + Held a public hearing on the final draft of the Nantucket and Madaket Harbors Plan. The plan was submitted to the selectmen on May 8 and was unanimously accepted by the board May 16 with the intent to now submit it to the state's Coastal Zone Management. The CZM may take months to complete its scrutiny and suggest changes. + Unanimously voted to deny an HDC appeal submitted by Neil and Janet Graner of 8 Ishmael Road and an HDC appeal submitted by the Bridges Family LLC of the same address.
+ Heard from the Harbor Plan Committee that it is likely okay to wait on a Town Meeting vote on the Harbors Plan until next April's Annual Town Meeting, rather than hold a fall Special Town Meeting for that purpose since the plan is now undergoing review by the Coastal Zone Management agency. AT ITS MEETING TONIGHT, MAY 23, THE BOARD WILL CONVENE AS THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AND WILL: + Hear a request from the Nantucket Lightship Basket Museum requesting the conceptual approval of an easement gift that will allow it to alter the layout of its retaining wall on Union Street to improve the vehicle turning radius for cars and trucks coming around the corner of Union and Francis streets. + Hear the list of county commissioners appointed as representatives to workgroups and committees.
