MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF APPEALS MEETING <br /> HELD JUNE 25, 1997 <br /> - In a letter dated March 14, 1996, Oman states, "One of the conditions for <br /> approval was to comply with building code items related to the change in <br /> occupancy classification." <br /> Schneider stated his point in presenting these documents was to show the occupancy <br /> classification was still in ongoing negotiation stages. <br /> - Schneider referred to Document#4,a letter from Todd Mohagen,an architect <br /> at Mohagen Architects, Ltd. indicating there had never been a certificate of <br /> occupancy issued for a change in use,therefore,the Old Hill Schools would <br /> be an E occupancy. <br /> - In a letter dated June 13, 1997, Architect Russell Salon stated he had <br /> participated in adult classes and was on the Board of Directors for Atelier <br /> LeSueur. He had observed children's illustration classes being taught on a <br /> full-time basis. <br /> - The chief instructor for the children's art classes at Atelier LeSueur was Kim <br /> Alleman-Beaty. She states that children's classes were held week nights from <br /> 4:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. (3-5 evenings a week), Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. -4:00 <br /> p.m. and a summer program from 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. daily. <br /> Schneider noted the threshold for E occupancy is 12 hours or more a week or 4 hours <br /> in one day for children under the 12th grade. <br /> - Another past instructor, Mike Coyle, states in a letter dated June 16, 1997 <br /> that "these classes used the building in excess of 12 hours per week during <br /> the fall of 1993 to the fall of 1996." <br /> - In a letter dated June 18, 1997,past Board Member Patricia Allar states that <br /> "during the period of occupancy at the Old School House in Orono children's <br /> classes were being offered on a full time basis." <br /> - Marcia Haggerty,a teacher and student from 1980-1988, states "There were <br /> always children's classes going on every year at the Ateliers where Annette <br /> LeSueur oversaw and/or taught classes." <br /> Schneider reiterated that previous documents have shown the B-2 classification was <br /> proposed by the City, not the architect. <br /> 3 <br />
