REPORT OF THE BOARD OF APPEALS
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: June 30, 2009
The Board of Appeals respectfully submits the following report for Fiscal
2008.
Fiscal Year 2009 was another busy year for the Board of Appeals. We had
Thirty - Four (34) applications we received last year. By statutory law we still
have to mail out notices to their abutters regarding the hearing and the filing of
the decision with the Town Clerk. We bill the applicants for the postage that is
used and that money is returned to the General Fund.
To file for a Variance or a Special Permit the application fee is one hundred
dollars ($100.00) that money is also returned to the General Fund.
Applications
34 Cases
29 Granted
1 Denied

Three Thousand Four Hundred Dollars ($3,400) were collected in application
fees and deposited with the Town Treasurer.
The Chairman would like to express his sincere appreciation to its dedicated
members of the Board, Emanuel Alves, Robert M. Fitzgerald, Stephen
M. Lundbohm, Brian M. Hurley, Sara L. Harnish, Virginia Donahue King, Jeffrey
B. Mullen and Francis C. O’Brien for their technical expertise and endless
hours devoted to reviewing documents and attending hearings over the years

various hearings.
The Board extends its sincere thanks and appreciation to Secretary, Diane
Colligan of the Board, Milton Building Commissioner, Joseph Prondak, all Department
Heads, Town Employees, Boards and Committees for their continued
