George Totman opened the -meeting at 8 : 10 p . m . Minutes of the
April meeting were approved as ' presented .
Totman reviewed current status of the Woodworking and Antique
Shop of Harvey and Randy Baker . At our last meeting we said we
would have to check with Frank Liquori to see if the County might
have some concerns -because the site bordered a state highway . We
received a letter from Mr . Liquori stating that " No recommenda -
tion is indicated by the County Planning Department and you are
free to act without prejudice . "
After a brief discussion , it was determined that the project
would benifit the community and that we should not go the route
of a public hearing . We approved tha application based on our
mutual agreement that fill would be brought in so as to provide
for sufficient parking .
V . Rankin moved to use the short form of the site plan review
C . Twigg seconded . All were in favor and the motion was past .
C . Twigg motioned that we approve the application based on having
the current owner , . Mr . Cotanch , sign the permit and that they
would have the appropriate number of parking spaces . V . Rankin
seconded . All were in favor and the motion was passsed .
Gary Mandrino - Site Plan Review for Miniature Golf Course :
Mr . Mandrino explained that the miniature golf course would be
located next to the Roman Village on Rt . 38 , covering a maximum
of 4000 square feet . It would be opened in the evenings and a
fence and lights would be installed .
- We discussed potential impact and then it was decided that
Mandrino should determine whether he really wanted it before we
went any further .
Roger Gleason - Rural subdivision
R . Gleason requests a rural subdivsion of three parcels ; 5 , 11 . 38
and 10 . 12 acres located on the corner of Old Stage and Clark Str .
Extension roads . We were given a map of this area . There were
some questions brought up in a discussion of this ' subdivision .
One was " What determines a lot ? " We ' found the answer in section
page 2
114 . 03 in the Town Ordinance which states Development Lot
is a continuous unbroken lot described by the boundry lines on
the Assessor ' s Tax Maps , but not crossong any railroad right - of -
way or street .
There was also a questionwhether the planning board has a right
to stipulate a restriction on the sale of another parcel off of
this subdivion . G . Totman will talk to the Town Lawyer to find
the legality of this .
April is the Annual Meeting Month so a selection of officers was
made . C . Twigg made a motion to leave theslate of officers as is .
A vote was taken and it was passed to retain the current officers ;
Gearge Totman - Chairman
Mike Post - Vice - Chairman
Nancy Ostrander - Correspondance Secrtary
Meeting was ajourned at 9 : 50 . . The next regular meeting of the
Planning Board will be May 20 , 1986 at 8 : 00 p . m .
