Corsair Realty, LLC Gravel Pit: Steve Riker, Representative:
Steve Riker, Sandpiper Environmental Services, LLC and Ed Hauck, E. F. Hauck Construction, Property Management represented Harriet Hobbs, Manager regarding the Corsair Realty, LLC Gravel Pit on Pleasant Valley Road. Map 7, Lot 29. Maps were presented showing the area.
Mr. Riker stated there are approximately 78 acres with an existing gravel pit on the site and the size of that is approximately 95,000 sq. ft., or 2.18 acres. The access road is approximately 200ft off Pleasant Valley Road. The gravel will be used for personal use only, not retail and will be removed as needed. There will be no crushing and no blasting and will be used for fill. There will be no fuel on site. Mr. Hauck advised the partners have tried to do some clean up of the property in the past year.
Nicki Dubaere, an abutter, map 7, lot 33, advised the new access road put in is eroding across the street causing flooding problems, pretty much closing off the end of the road. The run off had been diverted and flooded their home and entire property and took out their pond. They are still dealing with the problem. Ms. Dubaere advised presently trucks have been going in empty, and coming out loaded consequently thought the pit was being active all along, and is confused. Mr. Hauck advised he has been taking pictures every two weeks for the past six months and no material has been removed from the property.
Phil LaMoreaux suggested the Dubaere’s attend the Public Hearing as well as the Site Walk when it has been set up.
Mr. Hauck advised he has been involved with this property for the past 18 months, and absolutely no material has been removed from this pit. He stated that they had no idea there was an erosion problem going onto the Dubaere’s property, and suggested it is Mother Nature causing some of it.
In going through the application, hours of operation were brought up as being 8am to 5pm Monday through Friday, shorter hours on Saturday with No activity on Sunday.
A Variance for Commercial Use would require Special Exception. Also since this pit was closed, it is a new Application and a Reclamation Bond would be required of $1,000 to go into the escrow account.
It was suggested a Sitewalk be scheduled in conjunction with the ZBA.
Mark Keith questioned the snowmobile trail. Mark also stated that the fill comes into the road due to erosion.
Motion was made by Phil LaMoreaux to accept the application as complete. Seconded by Bill Glennie, Phil LaMoreaux retracted his motion until additional abutters are notified who where unintentionally omitted from the original list. These include: Kinkaid, Bravo, Richardson, Edwards. Also a locus plan is required, providing more detail on the plans.
Old original gravel pit reclamation map from Pfeifle’s needs to be copied at Bruss’, and the secretary will do this, and forward a copy to Mr. Hauck.
September Site walk is proposed and actual date and time will be forth coming, and will be posted.
Mr. Hauck advised the contours and topography can be done prior to September 14, 2010.
The Hearing will be continued for September 14, 2010.
Mr. Hauck advised the Certified letter was not received by him until yesterday. It was determined that the address was incorrect, but it was the only address the secretary had for the mailing, as the Corsair Realty, LLC did not furnish a label for themselves.
Ledgewood Pines, Old Warner Road, Map 3, Lot 94 & 96, Scott Bussiere, Representative:
Marcia Keller, Chair read a July 23, 2010 letter from the Planning Board to Mr. Bussiere, Ledgewood Pines into the minutes, (Letter on file) which was forwarded to them via certified mail with the return receipt dated July 26, 2010, being returned.
Nothing has been received from Ledgewood Pines, in writing or verbally regarding the above mentioned certified mailing. Conditions of Approval have not been met, and the extension expired in July, 2010.
Comments from the Town Attorney were read by Marcia Keller, Chair. (On file)
Motion was made by Jim Bibbo to disapprove the application filed by Mapleview Development, LLC for Ledgewood Pines Subdivision, on August 31, 2005, conditionally approved by the Planning Board on January 11, 2006 Old Warner Road, Map 3, Lot 94 & 96 as they have not met the Conditions of Approval within the specified time, nor have they shown good faith in progress toward meeting the conditions. It has been four years and eight months since the Condition of Approval was granted. Motion seconded by Phil LaMoreaux. Motion carried 6-0.
The applicant shall be notified by a certified letter with a copy to the Board of Selectmen, with a request to the Selectmen to have the assessors correct the tax card.
At the time the Condition of Approval was granted by the Planning Board, the tax cards were changed to show the individual lots and the tax maps were updated. Now, this must be un-done.
It was the decision of the Planning Board to save all tapes of Meeting Minutes for five years.
It was noted that the “Holder of Easement” should show on the bottom of the page on the abutters list.
Meeting adjourned 9:30pm
Respectfully submitted,

An update of the Conservation Commission suggestions of the Natural Resourses which will be discussed later in the meeting.
A series of e-mails between the Town Atty. and Carol Demers Mosaic Artiques was mentioned.

Her sign measures eight feet long and eighteen inches high.” This memo was forwarded to Laura Specter, the Town Attorney with a brief note, and at this time, no reply has been received.
Phil LaMoreaux questioned if when the sign ordinance was presented to the Selectmen, did they vote to authorize anyone to deal with them? Perhaps it would be something the Selectmen would want to do is to designate whoever will be addressing this.

To Do Folder:
The contents of the To Do Folder were gone over.
Mosaic Artiques is still not completed regarding the sign per Marcia Keller, Chair. Trudy Willett as Building Inspector needs to do this with assistance.
Summary from the OEP Planning Conference:
Jim Bibbo deferred the comments on “Roads” for Sonny Harris to give the presentation on this.
Jim Bibbo also attended the Work Force Housing meeting. He commented that this only passed in a couple of towns this past year. Some thoughts on this included the misconception with the title. Perhaps a different terminology should be used, such as affordable housing. The appropriate RSA could be used, but identify it as something else. Another topic Jim Bibbo attended was Law, which has to do with Zoning and Excavations with the most of it pertaining to the Board of Adjustment.
On keeping records, the electronic records need to be kept for the same period as paper
records which is 10 years. This decision was made on September 29, 2009, under RSA 91AIII-a, Chapter 299, laws of 2009, House Bill 206.
Marcia Keller, Chair thanked Jim Bibbo for his input.
The Gravel Pit extension wording:
This is no longer an issue and will not be worked on any further.
Zoning Changes: written suggestions from board members:
Jim Bibbo advised the State has Model Ordinances and his thoughts were for some planning board members to request copies of them.
Jim Bibbo summarized his comments on telecommunication antennas and towers in town. Jim Bibbo advised the Director of the Office of Energy, Planning will have the Model Municipal Ordinances relative to the deployment of personnel wireless communication facilities and any NH Municipality can request a copy.
Bill Glennie proposed a definition change in Zoning.
No other suggestions for changes from board members were available at this time.
Marcia Keller, Chair received a letter regarding Zoning Changes from the Conservation Committee, and read portions to the board members, stating they are looking forward to working with the Bradford Planning Board in reviewing Town Ordinances. Also the Innovative Land Use Techniques book was discussed.
The New Hampshire 2009-2010 Land Use Law in Review was discussed, and will be put on a PDF file for everyone.
The objective of the Comprehensive Review is to base the Zoning Ordinance on the Master Plan.
Bill Glennie will try overlaying the conservation commission maps.
This will be delayed until the end of June.
CIP informational meeting with the Budget Committee:
Marcia Keller, Chair reiterated the meeting with the Budget Committee this evening at 6:30pm regarding the CIP. Dick Keller will be setting up the first meeting of the sub-committee with the following representatives: Bill Glennie, Planning Board, Harry Wright, Selectmen Representative, Don Jackson, Budget Committee and Jon Marden as an interested person.

Jim Bruss, Main Street Conceptual Consultation re: Dodges Store Map 17, Lot 2 & 3:
Jim Goldee represented Jim Bruss regarding the former Dodges Store building on East Main Street. Two parcels are being discussed. The existing block building on Lot 2, is to be retained and renovated in its entirety. The proposal on the wooden structure that is the adjacent building on Lot 3, would be to take it down and build parking for the structure on Lot 2. The storage garages on Lot 3 would remain for the same use. The proposal for the block building on Lot 2 would be to renovate it for a restaurant. There is an existing well which would continue to be used. The existing septic field currently is too close. The proposal would be to build a new septic, back on lot 3. Since a restaurant would seat more than 25 patrons a day, they do seek approval from the Dept. of Environmental Services. The existing well as long as it provides the amount that is necessary and the quality necessary will be utilized. However, a back up plan does need to be considered, just in case, which would be to drill a new well back on the property line between Map 17, Lot 1 and Map 17, Lot 2. Lot 1 is owned by Paul Saxby and Lot 2 is owned by Geoffrey and Sarah Hirsch. Both parties are very cooperative. Question is, is it an easement on both lots, or is a Lot Line Adjustment in order, where about an acre would be taken from one lot and added to the other so the easement would be on one lot only?
The building has also been discussed as being used just as a retail facility per Mr. Goldee, in which case, the back-up well plan would not be required.
A Lot Line Adjustment is being considered at this time, and was discussed at length as the board perused a map presented by Mr. Goldee. This would be considered as two different applications.
The CNHRPC Circuit Rider may be contacted.
William and Jane Lucas,Old Mountain Road, Map 4, Lot 34 & 34A represented by Roger Rodewald, Riverside Design, Lot Line Adjustment:
Roger Rodewald, Riverside Design came before the board regarding a Lot Line Adjustment and will file an Application including the Mylar for the June 8, 2010 meeting. The abutters will have to be notified.
Bob Foley, 111 Massasecum Ave. Conceptual Consultation, Map 11, Lot 13 and Map 11, Lot 47 on 112 Massasecum Ave.:
Sonny Harris stepped down. Mr. Foley is hoping to split off 10 or 12 acres. The tax map was brought up for the board’s perusal. A copy of Mr. Foley’s deed was received. Mr. Foley advised he had discussed his desires with his attorney who advised him to talk with the Planning Board. The consensus of the Planning Board is that they actually have no input in this endeavor, there is no sub-division required.
Gravel pit wording of extension of permits:
This discussion will be tabled until Phil LaMoreaux discusses with Bruce Edwards what he is basing his comments on regarding state regulations for timing.
Other Business to come before the Board:
Marcia Keller, Chair advised she had spoken with the Selectmen regarding updating the CIP. It was thought that perhaps Andrew Pinard could be contacted regarding the projection of programs from the Kearsarge Regional School District to help in updating the CIP. Gary Wall also asked if Marcia Keller, Chair would talk with the Budget Committee regarding the CIP.
Also, there is no report tonight regarding the Mosiac Artiques sign size, the Building Inspector is going to measure.
Existing signs discussed were: Lumber Barn and The Junction.
Jim Bibbo and Sonny Harris attended the Planning Seminar and Marcia asked them to summarize the topics etc at the next Planning Board meeting on May 25, 2010.
Once again, several names were discussed as to being Planning Board Alternates.
Marcia Keller, Chair requested the board members come up with suggestions and ideas in writing for changes for the Zoning Ordinances.
The Planning Board authorized Marge Cilley, Secretary to order a 100 capacity wooden cassette rack in which to store the tapes which we keep for two years.
Meeting adjourned at 9:20pm.

Marcia Keller, Chair called the April 27th Work Session of the Planning Board to order at 7:00pm. with Phil LaMoreaux, Sonny Harris, Barry Wheeler, Harry Wright, Selectmen Representative, Bill Glennie, Jim Bibbo, Alternate and Marge Cilley, Secretary present.

Discussion ensued regarding the measuring of the sign on the building at Mosiac Artiques, Caroline Demers. Marcia Keller, Chair indicated she would talk with the Selectmen at their next meeting.
Wording of Gravel Pit Extension Permit:
It was explained that a Gravel Pit owner states he has to report to the State every two years regardless and had asked to extend the Town Permit every four years, so he would not have to do permitting on an odd year, but would coincide with either two or four years. This is in section XVIA2 of the Excavation Regulations. Marcia Keller, Chair advised they need a copy of whatever the State does require. It was also suggested the Planning Board talk with Mary Pinkham Langer for input before making any changes, and Marcia Keller, Chair will call her. If there were to be a change, a Public Hearing would need to be held. This will be brought up at the May 11, 2010 meeting for a decision.
Corsair Realty - Harriet Hobbs, Pleasant Valley Road Follow-up:
Discussion ensued regarding the Gravel Pit owned by Corsair Realty and correspondence received from them as well as to them. Among other correspondence to Corsair Realty was a Notice of Decision on November 11, 2009 advising the Planning Board declared the Corsair Realty Gravel Pit, Map 7, Lot 29 as abandoned with full reclamation to be done prior to June 30, 2010 according to the minimum and express reclamation standards unless a permit has been applied for and approved prior to that date.
Marcia Keller, Chair seated Jim Bibbo for Barbara Vannata
Motion was made by Bill Glennie to forward a letter to Corsair Realty to remind them of the June 30, 2010 deadline, and they are required to either submit an Application or Reclamation plans need to be addressed. If this is not done by the June 30, 2010 deadline, enforcement, fines and penalties will be assessed. Seconded by Jim Bibbo. Motion carried unanimously.
Other Business to come before the Board:
Marcia Keller, Chair asked for accomplishments hoped for in the coming year, and some concerns are:
- Zoning - Looking for approach from Board Members for specifics
- Workforce Housing - Public education needed.
It was suggested a letter be written to Ledgewood Pines regarding the June 8th 2010 deadline for their Road Bond with expectations everything will be in order, or be subject to disapproval of their application.
The Master Plan update needs include discussion with the Conservation Commission as well as any other group in town who may be interested. A Sub-committee needs to be set up. They will check with CNHRPC for possible examples. Marcia suggested for the members to bring specifics in, in writing.
1. Ideas - Work with Conservation.
2. Do something on our own.
3. Amend what we already have.
4. Windmills brought up to address.
5. Protect Water.
6. Agricultural Soils.
CIP should be worked on now as well, and hopefully be completed by October, 2010. Dick Keller had volunteered as Sub-committee member. Bill Glennie will be the Planning Board member, and other names mentioned were: Budget Committee member Don Jackson or George Cilley. Also Jon Marden was mentioned as a possible member. Department Heads will be checked with to find out their needs to help the Budget Committee as well as the Selectmen. The last CIP was worked on in 2007.
The following list results from Marcia Keller, Chair passing a paper around for each board member to choose a topic (Regulation) to familiarize themselves with.
