Mank,
Good to hear from you. I'm sorry to hear about your layoff. It has been a hard year.
First, | need to advise that the Bed & Breakfast Inn regulations are now administered through the Town C|ad/o office. |'m
copying them on this email for additional information orquestions.
There is an apparent conflict with the approach you're outlining. Sec. 5.2.U.2.a.(2) reads as follows:
Guest rooms shall be integrated within the bed and breakfast inn.
Possibly the cottage could be integrated with the main house by constructing a link between the two (corridor, breezeway,
additional room, etc.); however, if the two buildings remain separated with open space between them, the clause above
seems to prevent the cottage from B&B occupancy. If a connection is of interest, please let us know and we can discuss
that possibility.
It's good to know the minor subdivision is on its way to us. I'm adding Senior Planner Jeff Woeber to this email, as he was
the lead planner on that aspect.
I hope this is helpful information. Please let me know if we can advise further. Best wishes and thank you!
RAH

Randy—We had a pre-application meeting for a minor sub-division of the property address below in March and will be
submitting a final application in the next couple ofweeks. | decided to send this note to you because | know you are
the expert! I'm not sure you are the right person to ask this question—if not please excuse me and direct me to who I
should beasking?
We operated a bed & breakfast at the 325 James Street address from 2013 through 2018, and after 2019 let the
license lapse aowewere not intending to re-open. At the time, wo were told that we could na'app|yaa a BnB and get
un inspection should vvo decide to re-open later.
I (Mark)was laid off last July and am now semi-retired. We are looking for ways to again have some income from this
propedy. However, we think it would be too much to try to operate the full five bedroom main house. Therefore, vvaare
inquiring about a modification to what we had before. When we were open, the onaite innkeeper lived in the cottage
and the full house was available for rent upto our eight person limit. We would like tm occupy and have m full time
pn*emnoe in the main house, and instead rent the cottage out short-term as a one bedroom bed J& breakfast.
Before I request the life safety inspection and begin the process, I wanted to inquire and see whether there would be a
problem with this proposal. Again, if you are not the right person to ask, could you please direct me? Also, happy to
get on the phone and talk further about this question.
Have a great day!
