AT ITS MEETING WEDNESDAY, AUG. 15,

THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN:

• Took no action on a request for fee waivers from Nantucket Homes for People, tabled from Aug. 8 meeting.

• Unanimously approved a request from the Planning Commission for support of an application to the Community Preservation Committee to fund the position of a housing planner/specialist position.

• Voted 3 to 1 (Willauer abstained) against a request from the Nantucket Housing Office for letters of support for two applications to the Community Preservation Committee for housing-related projects. One is to create two rental units on Miller's Lane; the other is for modular units at 2 Clarendon St. and 3 Norquarta Drive. Selectman Roggeveen said it should be up to the CPC and that it would do a disservice to other applicants if the selectmen lend support to these projects.

The approval is contingent on the board receiving plans for the property.

• Unanimously denied an appeal from Stephen A. Wise of Historic District Commission certificates of appropriateness for 2 East Hallowell Lane.
