Appearances: Chad Richie, Fieldstone Land Consultants, preliminary conversation concerning subdivision on County Road, Map 9, Lot 38. A preliminary plan has been drawn by Fieldstone Land Consultants for the property owner consisting of a subdivision of 19 home sites on a 150 acre plot. Chad Richie asked the Board’s opinion on all of the subdivision requirements. Katie answered in each instance that without further information and an application the Board could not definitively answer the questions. There was a discussion of the road frontage requirement for each home site. The question of whether or not the town would maintain the road within the subdivision was answered with that would be determined by a vote of the Town. Members of the audience were given a chance to ask questions about the proposal.
