Pellegri - is this a scenic road? no it is not Kelly had met with some residents which got this started a bridge is being talked of being replaced Buckley and Mann site, it is contaminated and would be bringing that stuff through here Amazon was looking at a site in Bellingham, if we don't have a way to fix this, we are going to be in trouble Richard Ciccone - Chestnut St speaking for the study to be done, this is going to be an issue if there is a public hearing, we can speak. I don't believe they have closed the hearing yet Let's get ahead of the curve. Why can't we ask for mitigation? Nutting - the best way would be for the ZBA to put in a truck route, so it would be a binding ruling. That is the construction phase, wand what is the ongoing phase.
