CHINA -- Planning Board members approved all four applications on Tuesday's agenda, including the lumber company expansion that generated many comments at a May 13 public hearing.

Board members unanimously allowed Carl Farris to build a 72-foot-by-100-foot addition at Lakeview Lumber Co. on Lakeview Drive.

They attached several conditions to their approval, some aimed specifically at responding to public comments hearing.

For example, a neighbor complained that trash from the business blew onto surrounding land. Farris had already moved his Dumpster to a more sheltered location, but board members directed him to take the additional step of replacing the open Dumpster with a covered one.

There was also a complaint that employees used a loud public address system early in the morning. The board and Farris agreed that will not be used before 7 a.m. Mondays through Saturdays, 8:45 a.m. Sundays.

Before Farris gets a building permit, board members will require a letter from China Rescue Chief Danny McKinnis, saying the addition does not impede access for emergency vehicles; a revised highway entrance permit from the Maine Department of Transportation; and written approval from the state fire marshal.

In the interim, they agreed he can have preparatory earth moving done but cannot start the foundation.

Also approved Tuesday evening were:

* Jason and Melissa Finley's revision to their Weeks Mills Road subdivision, dividing one lot into two lots;

* Cleveland Street LLC's plan to convert part of Pellerin Campground off Vassalboro Road into no more than 16 cabins, with a condominium form of ownership; and

* O'Brien Oil Company's application to convert the former Dog Days Café on Route 3 into an office and display area.

The Planning Board's June 10 meeting at China Middle School will feature a presentation on the draft revised Comprehensive Plan.
