Cape Cod Businesses: The Davis Gallery (closed 2006)

The Davis Gallery, Wellfleet

This Gallery is no longer open. It closed in 2006.

There is an entry on the web for it:

From the Zoning Board of appeals:
7:52 pm 06-23 Kevin Millet and Leonard D’Italice, 2766 Route 6, Map 15, Parcel 146: Application for a Special Permit under WZB 5.3.2: Change use of commercial area to include Retail, Wholesale and Gallery. The Board for this hearing was Trevor Pontbriand, Jeffrey Stewart, Robert Hankey, William Nicholson, and Sibel Asantugrul. Kevin Millet and Leonard D’Italice gave an overview of their former business in Salem. They are currently leasing the gallery space on the property where they are offering wholesale silk screening and banners, as well as artwork and souvenirs. There will be no alterations to the structure and no equipment will be permanently affixed. The sign for the business has been approved by the Building Inspector. The former tenant, Al Davis, stated he has discontinued his tax ID; therefore, the Davis Gallery is non-existent. Millett stated all materials used contain natural ingredients and are non-toxic. Pontbriand moved for Findings of Fact:
1. The existing structure is used as an antique shop / art gallery.
2. The proposed use will be for a retail trade business.
3. The proposed use will not be more intense than the previous use.
4. There are no objections from abutters.
5. There are no changes to the structure.
Pontbriand moved to approve the Findings of Fact; seconded by Stewart; passed 5-0.
Pontbriand moved to grant the Special Permit based on the Findings of Fact with the following conditions:
1. The hours of operation shall be 9:00 am to 9:00 pm, seven days per week.
2. The existing exterior lighting is to be maintained as is.
3. There shall be no outside display of merchandise.
seconded by Hankey; passed 5-0.
