RANGELEY – A second appeal regarding the sale of condominium-style boat slips at Haines Landing Marina in Oquossoc will be heard by the Zoning Board of Appeals Thursday.

The session is set for 6:30 p.m. at the Rangeley Town Office, Code Enforcement Officer Robert Griscom said. The action is an administrative appeal based on Griscom’s opinion that dock owner Larry Spellman of Abbadrew Realty Trust in Ossipee, N.H., does not need a conditional use permit.

Two groups, the Mooselookmeguntic Improvement Association and the Haines Landing Cottage Association, along with marina abutters George Dunn and James Proctor representing Hobart Maine Properties or HKH campgrounds, which Proctor manages, are taking this second appeal before the zoning board.

The appeal is based on their belief that the code enforcement officer erred in his ruling and shouldn’t have ruled on it himself. The Planning Board should have been consulted, Proctor said Tuesday.

“We’re not against dockominiums per se but feel if it went before the planning board then our arguments would be addressed by the board,” he said.

The Hobart family has denied Spellman the use of their parking facilities and bathrooms, Proctor said. The previous owner leased land from Hobarts for parking.

Appellants said the planning board could set conditions that would address parking, bathrooms and the need for a full-time attendant, Proctor said. The owner, Spellman, says an attendant is not needed, he added.

In September, an appeal, raised by the two groups and the Rangeley Crossroad Coalition, sought review of the project as a subdivision since the marina owner is selling, rather than leasing or renting, dock space.

The town didn’t consider it a sub-division because the owner wasn’t changing the use of the slips, just ownership by selling them as one would sell a condominium, Griscom said earlier.

After reviewing the case the appeals board found it shouldn’t have heard the case and didn’t pass it on to the planning board. Appellants then filed the case in Franklin County Superior Court, where a decision is pending.

Depending on what is decided Thursday, they may consider filing another case with the courts, Proctor said.
