The continuation of the public informational meeting on the Master Plan application of Storage Place LLC to build a self-storage facility on property on the pond side of Rt. 1 between the Hitching Post and the Willows Annex (Lot 77, Map 5, and a portion of Lot 81, Map 5) was on the Planning Commission’s agenda for July 24. However, at the beginning of the meeting, Attorney Steven Surdut, who represents the applicant, informed the Commission that his client was withdrawing its application. The Planning Commission, after determining that Attorney Surdut’s representation on the record was sufficient, voted to accept the withdrawal. Attorney Surdut indicated that his client would be applying in the future to construct a self-storage facility “in a more appropriate location.” It is unclear if the developer intends to apply again at a different location in Charlestown or in another town.
