Deb agreed to type the list and fax it to Peter for review to be passed to Jim
Seafuse . The Board moved to consideration of the Parker subdivision review . The
Board agreed , based on the information supplied that the subdivision fell into the major
category because there are more than 5 lots and the intent for a public road . Peter made
a motion to classify the subdivision as major . The motion was seconded by Rick and
passed . Peter agreed to call Albern and request he supply the information specified in
section 242 of the subdivision ordinance for a preliminary plat and then a public
hearing could be scheduled when that is completed .
The Board briefly discussed the subdivision ordinance and questioned the ability
to divide 2 lots in 2 years without subdivision review . The Board will ask the attorney
for the town to check on this . The Board briefly discussed a meeting schedule and
agreed to establish regular meetings on the second Tuesday of each month with special
meetings to be scheduled as needed . The next meeting was set for Wednesday , May 12
