Planning Board Review of Capital Improvements Program Report

As agreed at the Planning Board Meeting 9.9.14 Camila Devlin will submit these questions to Stephanie Alexander by email.  A Public Hearing will be scheduled for 10.28.14 at 7pm.

Motion was made to accept the Draft CIP report. Motion approved 6-0.
