HORR – SKETCH PLAN REVIEW

 

DRB Roll Call: J. Heyer, B. Murphy, C. Rainville, C. Streets, J. Beers

Public Present: S. Taylor, Z.A.; R. Horr; A. Horr

 

7:20 PM                         J. Heyer called the meeting to order. The public notice was read and attendees signed in. Interested parties were sworn in. Bob Horr stated the subdivision is primarily to settle the estate of his parents.  They hope to separate the house and garage from the rest of the parcel.  Andy and Bob own the farm, which extends into Georgia, but the house and garage are on the Deed in joint ownership with all the siblings.  They hired M. Averill, Engineer, to dig test pits for a replacement septic system for the house.  They are waiting for the results. The pits were drilled in the front of the house since the well is in the back.  They also hope to retain a 60-70 foot ROW for future access to the property. There is a farm lane to access the larger lot.

 

S. Taylor asked about the camp (old school house) that is owned by someone else.  There is no septic, and due to ledge, no place to put one in. It is not used at the present time. Density calculations were discussed.  The whole parcel will either need to be surveyed, or the Surveyor would need to show the complete boundary and make a note regarding the data.  The project was classified as a minor subdivision.  A site visit was scheduled for 6:45 PM on September 17, 2008.  The Board agreed that the project could continue to Final Plat once all the requirements are met.

 

ACTION ITEMS:

1)  Road Foreman to review access to larger lot, Plat to reference access for future use.

2)  Density calculations for both lots to be shown on Plat.

3)  The boundary of the complete property to be shown on Plat.

COVI/JONES – FINAL PLAT REVISION REVIEW

 

DRB Roll Call: J. Heyer, B. Murphy, C. Rainville, C. Streets, J. Beers

Public Present: S. Taylor, Z.A.; B. Superneau

 

7:30 PM   J. Heyer called the meeting to order. The public notice was read and attendees signed in. Interested parties were sworn in. Bill Superneau made the presentation. The property was determined to have a greater area of wetlands than originally thought.  A wetland delineator was brought in to make accurate determinations.

The property line for lot 1 needed to be moved, and the driveway is now on the shared road.  The access road (Roig Farm Road) will now be built to A76 standards with a 24 foot travel portion and 2 foot shoulders. Due to the changes, one less curb cut will be needed. The line between lots 5 and 6 also needed to be moved to get 2 acres of developable land for lot 6.  Frontage requirements, and the scales showing on the maps, were discussed.  Wetlands in general were discussed, along with the importance of having them delineated before each sketch plan hearing.

C. Streets made a motion to close the hearing to public input and move to deliberative.  J. Beers second.  All in favor. 

 

 

Items to be included on Paper Map:

            1) Scale on map to be consistent with lines drawn.
