The meeting was called to
order by G. Heyer at 7:30PM. The minutes from May 2, 2006 were reviewed. P.

All in favor. The minutes from the May 9, 2006 workshop were reviewed. M.
Hunziker made a motion to accept the minutes from May 9, 2006.
A. Lemieux second. All in
favor.
The completed second draft of
the Bylaws, were handed to members. Copies were made for the Selectboard and
the Development Review Board. S. Taylor
had questions regarding permits for swimming pools. The Bylaws now state any structure over 100 square feet require a
permit. Discussion centered on
inflatable pools that are put up and taken down each year. S. Taylor will research wording from other
towns. Clarification may be needed in our Bylaws.
A question arose regarding a
yard sale that is run in the same location most every weekend. M. Hunziker was
concerned about safety issues on a main town road. This issue needs further
discussion for clarification of the Bylaws to determine if this is a yard sale,
a home industry, or a retail business.
8PM Bill Rose from NRPC discussed Access Management. Mr. Rose centered
on eliminating contact points, emergency access, financial means to maintain
roads, parking, and access between different commercial areas. He also reinforced the need for continuity
between different Boards concerning Access Management. He talked about Traffic Impact Analysis Standards
being a good tool for the Town and for the Development Review Board. Mr. Rose
was given copies of the most recent Bylaws and the proposed changes. He offered
to review these Bylaws for consistency and to make recommendations for wording
regarding Access Management. He will sit with S. Taylor to discuss his
recommendations. He gave the Planning
Commission handouts for reference, and will supply another manual that he will
give to C. Steen to give to the Planning Commission.
9:00 M. Hunziker made a
motion to adjourn. P. Hudson
second. All in favor.
