This Lot Line Adjustment is an equal area exchange in order to obtain a better building envelope for Lot 141. The Town Engineer, in his review letter, suggested that they needed to look at the requirements in Section 410:7 of the Zoning Ordinance, specifically that the developer demonstrate that Lot 140 will continue to enjoy at least two acres of upland after the adjustment is made. Mr. Lavelle noted that the two areas were not equal in soils. An adjustment in the line was made today. Proposed is to swap 4,000 sq.ft. from Lot 140 and in return leave 11,000 sq.ft. of wetlands. Both lots will remain with 2 acres of upland soils. Other items in the review letter have been addressed. The variance cited in Note 4 has been referenced on the plan and the note was expanded to cite the fact that the two affected lots benefit from a special exception granted at the time these lots were created enabling them to be platted as "reduced frontage lots".

It was recommended that the note depict when, by whom and under what criteria jurisdictional wetlands were delineated.

All other items were reviewed and addressed. The Town Engineer recommended an expedited review.

The hearing was opened to abutters with not comments noted.

Mr. DiMaggio made a motion to approve the Lot Line Adjustment on property located at 5 Brittany Lane Map 14, Lot 140 and Map 14, Lot 141, TR2 Zone conditionally on the Town Engineer verifying the soil based lot size and the upland soil provision. Mr. Earley seconded the motion. Motion approved unanimously.

The hearing was closed at 7:59 P.M.

Board Member Joseph Guishard left the meeting.

Ms. Cheney stepped off the Board.

The next hearing was opened at 8:00 P.M.

Steven Lewis, Inc. submission of an Amended Commercial Site Plan to add 4' to a previously approved 20'x26' two story commercial addition for Formal Consideration and Approval for a 24'x26' two story addition. Property located at 11 Main Street, Map 5, Lot 5-14, C Zone.

The abutter's list was read. Present: Steven Lewis, Inc., T.F. Moran, Steven Lewis, Lewis Builders, Inc. Robert Perreault.

Mr. Lewis noted that the building plan clearly states 24'x26' and the Site Plan states 24'x20'. Since then a new plan has been done. The dimensions and window placements remain the same. Mr. Lewis is before the Board because when they try to obtain a building permit the site plan will not match the building plan. The lot coverage is not affected or the footprint. Parking spaces remain the same. The percentage of coverage is now 9% and it was 8.4%.

Ms. Killam stated that because this is a non-conforming lot the Zoning Board gave him relief from a 75' setback. There will be a note change confirming that the building will be sprinkled. A handicapped accessible bathroom is being installed on the first floor.

The hearing was opened to abutters with no comments noted.

The hearing was closed at 8:10 P.M.

Ms. Cheney returned to the Board.

The next hearing was opened at 8:15 P.M.

Engineering Alliance, Inc. for Heyland Development, LLC and owner John Lathrop III, - Submission of an Application for Formal Acceptance and Approval of an Amended Site Plan to reduce the number of lots from 6 to 4 on a previously approved Rural Residential Cluster (Little River Lane) on 15.6 acres located at 33 Maple Ave, Map 9, Lot 33, RR2 Zone.

The abutter's list was read. Present: Heyland Development, LLC, Engineering Alliance, Inc.

The developer was asked as a condition of approval to design the driveways in this development and bond the driveways as well. This process proved to be very costly so the plan has been downsized from 6 house lots, in which the rear portion of the property was developed, to 4 lots. This will keep development away from the rear of the property and reduce the total roadway by 225'. It will reduce the grading around the roadway by almost 30,000 sq.ft. The alignment of the 600' of roadway is essentially the same. The cul de sac has been lowered and shortened by approximately 200' while providing sufficient frontage. The total wetland disturbance has been reduced by 455'. The total impact now is 4336 sq.ft. An amended State Subdivision Permit has been received as well as an amended Wetland's Permit. None of the side slopes at this time warrant any guardrails.

The Town Engineer agreed that this is a much better plan than the previous one. The land that is not being used will remain open space. The open space will be slightly increased and the lots will be larger.

The Town Engineer's letter was reviewed. All state permits have been received and complies with zoning. A reduced bond will apply. The Homeowner's Association Documents remain the same.

Planning/Design Matters: 1) Three waivers were granted, two of the waivers no longer apply and these should be deleted from the plan. The roadway width waiver remains. 2 & 3) Minor changes. 4) Sheet C3 will be recorded. All the slope and drainage easements should be depicted on the sheet that goes to the registry. 5) The final plan should be stamped. 6) Minor change. 7) The engineer would like to see the revised drainage computations. 8) It is recommended that the design engineer provide a means to achieve positive drainage from the depressed landscaped island within the cul-de-sac. 9) Sheet C-4 indicate the grading design of the first fifty feet of each driveway; and each driveway apron, with driveway culvert if necessary, be constructed from the proposed edge of roadway pavement to a point 2.5-feet interior to each lot at the time of roadway construction. 10) The plans specify the use of a corrugated metal pipe at the proposed stream crossing. Section 410:21 of the Road Specifications require the use of reinforced concrete pipe or high-density polyethylene pipe for storm drain construction. 11) The slope of the proposed roadway exceeds 3% maximum within 50-feet of the proposed intersection with Maple Ave, specified in Section 410:14 of the Road Specs. The slope of the road exceeds the 6% maximum through the planned horizontal curve between Sta. 2+36.55 and Sta. 3+23.59, specified in Section 410:15 of the Road Specs and it is recommended the station and elevation of the roadway at its intersection with Maple Ave. be specified on the profile. 12) It is recommended the plans specify under drain will be installed between Sta. 0+05 and 3+25-right; and Sta. 6+75 and 8+25-left.

The applicant requested waivers from Section 410:14, 3% maximum slope within 50' of the proposed intersection with Maple Ave., Section 410:15, 6% maximum slope through the planned horizontal curve between Sta. 2+36.55 and Sta. 3+23.59 as specified in the Road Specification and Regulations and a waiver allowing use of a corrugated metal pipe.

Discussion: The Fire Chief's letter was read. Mr. DiMaggio noted that there were to many conditions and that there are no plans before the board to review. The developer felt that he could work things out with the Town Engineer. He added that there is a preliminary approval on the 6-lot plan and noted that they are up against the clock in construction with the winter setting in. Work should begin within the next couple of weeks. He asked that the Board consider this in their decision. Mr. Keach did not have a problem with the Board approving the plan with the conditions noted.

The hearing was closed at 8:50 P.M.

Mr. Earley reported that he has met with the Fire Chief and a meeting is pending with the Police Department and Highway Dept. The Fire Chief was okay with the height and this will be discussed further at the next meeting.

Mr. Stewart suggested that the first 50' of a driveway be inspected at the same time as the driveway inspection. Mr. Keach recommends removing 14' out of the right of way and installing culverts.

The meeting was closed at 8:59 P.M.

Next Scheduled Planning Board Public Hearing/Workshop meeting November 3, 2004.
