Lot Line Adjustment Map3/Lot55&56:
Timothy Bernier, from T. F. Bernier, Inc. came and presented the lot line adjustment for Nate Kimball. There were questions from the Board if this should be a lot line adjustment or a subdivision; Timothy explained that they are interested in the lot line adjustment. He brought a copy of the survey that was completed in the 1980’s and said that he plans on have the new lot lines surveyed and will bring this information to the next meeting. The Board wanted more time to review the project and Claire is going to have Tim email her a detailed description of what they plan on doing moving forward. Tim will gather more information and send this to Claire and the Board secretary as soon as possible.
Antique shop store front:
Claire talked with the owner of the property, John, on September 27th and expressed the concerns about the current condition of the store front. John said that he would talk to the owner of the antique shop within the next few weeks. The Board feels like if there is no change with the condition of the store front then there should be a site plan review to make sure that everything is in compliance.
Site Plan Summary:
Claire presented the third and final installment on the Site Plan section of the ordinance; she went over section 7-19 to the Board. Claire gave handouts for the Board to review and said that she will have better copies at the next meeting. The Board found this review to be helpful as did Claire. The next section that will be presented will be Subdivisions by Carol.
CIP:
At the last meeting the Fire Department presented their project requests and that went well. The next CIP meeting is tomorrow, 10.11.17 and they will hear from the Transfer Station. All project requests have been submitted, they are just waiting to meet with the Library, Police, and the Highway Department.
Agenda and minute Posting:
The legal requirement is that minutes are posted within 5 business days after the meeting, Claire thought she saw a requirement for the agenda but she was not able to find it at the meeting but will look it up and get back to the Board secretary as to what that time frame is. The Board would like to have a cut off of when people can request to be on the agenda, the Board feels that the Tuesday before the meeting is appropriate and also at that time, they would like the agenda posted and sent out to them via email.
Other business:
Compassions Vet: There is currently a sign on their property that was not approved by the Board, the Board would like to have this moved to the next meeting so they can gather more information.
The next Planning Board meeting is scheduled for October 24, 2017 at 7:00pm at BACC.
Meeting adjourned at 9:02 pm
