Attorney Schneiders submitted report from VHB explaining the differences of a Historic Mill Complex 
and densely Developed Area. Attorney Schneiders also submitted the tentative Article 19 & 20 that will be 
presented during Annual Town Meeting of 2009. Articles are in reference to the use of the Plymouth Rubber 
site and the tentative uses. Attorney Scheniders and Paul Brodemerkle of Site Design Professionals are in the 
planning stages of an over 55 independent living support housing complex. Currently an over 55 independent 
facility is be constructed in Stoughton Mass; facility would be constructed on the 8.1 acre parcel of the 
Plymouth Rubber site. 
Conservation Agent Robert Murphy explained to ConCom, Attorney Schneiders and Mr. Brodmerkle that there 
are different requirements for a historical mill site and densely developed site. How site is determined ConCom
