License to serve coffee and other non-alcoholic beverages in the first floor commercial space at a Segway Tours office in the Mercantile Building.

8. North Bennet Street School, Miguel Gomez-Ibanez, Executive Director, will provide an update on NBSS activities, including the school’s potential to expand within the neighborhood and their new program with the Eliot School.
9. 9 N. Margin Street, owner Sal Tecce, has re-filed an application previously approved by the Zoning Board of Appeal, as well as NEWNC, in 2006. The owner failed to pull the building permit and the previous approval expired after two years. Zoning relief is required to construct a new five-unit dwelling, with a garage beneath (at ground level) for two-cars. Plans are identical to the 2006 application, including the previous agreements made with the residents at 19 Widget St. The garage entrance and exit will be from and to N. Margin Street only, not from Wiget Street. Balconies on the N. Margin Street side of the building will not be built, per the ZBA’s previous proviso. The building height will be 54.50 feet, in accordance with the 55 feet maximum height limit.
