Albert Bargoot, Approved Maureen Lee, Approved Kevin Roche, Approved with Conditions Construction at 24 Cross Street may be underway prior to ESMS event. Sidewalk and street directly in front of 24 Cross Street may not be available for staging. Charles Breen, Approved with Conditions Use only easily moveable barriers to block the street. Keep the travel lane portion of the street free of obstructions so that emergency vehicles may pass through if necessary. All vendor set ups should be placed to allow the passage of emergency vehicles if necessary. The document attached to Small Change brewing's application shows vendors being set up in a zigzag fashion on the street. This would prevent easy passage of emergency vehicles.
