UNOFFICIAL UNTIL APPROVED

February 13, 2003

Members present: Richard Bennett,  Sarah Kimball, Ira Lynn and Stephen Weeder.   Alternates present are Bob Dupuis and Betsey Harding.

Others: David Douglass representing Thaddeus Thorne Surveys and Fred Feyling, John   (MISSED), Landscape Architect representing Laurie Gabriel, Mary Burack.

Chairman Richard Bennett called the regular meeting of the Planning Board to order at 7:05 p.m.  The minutes of the January 9, 2003,  meeting were accepted as written. Betsey Harding made the motion to accept and it was seconded by Ira Lynn and passed unanimously.

The verbatim report of the January 7 hearing had several corrections-- mainly the omission of quotation marks. Ira Lynn made a motion to accept the minutes as changed and Sarah Kimball seconded this motion. The board approved this motion unanimously.   A corrected copy has been reprinted as there were so many changes and will be filled in the Planning Board notebook with the January minutes. Mary Burack would like last names added to the minutes even though they are printed in the attendance section. She felt that twenty years from now it would be helpful. We agreed to do this.

1.  PUBLIC INPUT:  The board did not ask for any comments.

THORNE SURVEY (DAVID DOUGLASS) REPRESENTING A. FRED FEYLING: R-8, Lot 9B.

David Douglass brought in the requested information to complete the subdivision requirements--the driveway approval and the new convenents. He also had the State of New Hampshire Subdivison approval number now included on the plan.The board agreed that we did not need to review the checklist again.  A motion was made by Ira Lynn and  seconded by Bob Dupuis to approve the application. This was approved unanimously. A motion was made by  (MISSED) and seconded by  (MISSED) to accept this subdivision. This was also approved unanimously.
     
3.  OTHER BUSINESS

David Douglass stayed to answer questions about the Gabriel Property. John (MISSED), landscape architect, was here representing Laurie Gabriel. She has 2 lots of record and wants to construct a guest house on the opposite side of her property from where she wants to construct her primary residence. In the plans that she has had drawn, this guest house would be on an inner property line. This smaller parcel already has a septic system and driveway installed. She does not intend to use the driveway. She would like to know if a lot line adjustment  or some other process would need to be done. She does have a deeded right to construct one other dwelling on her property but not on the parcel that she would like to use for the guest house. She has no intention of building another residence on this parcel. She does plan to construct a tennis area and a swimming pool/changing area on the parcel that her residence will be on. The smaller parcel that she wants to build the guest house on has the deed issued in a trust and the other 2 parcels are deeded in her name only. After considerable discussion, the board felt that the easiest way for her wishes to be accomplished was to abolish the trust and have the deed issued in her name. When she wished to build, she would then have to apply for a building permit and then she would have to bring it to the Planning Board.

FEBRUARY 4  HEARING RESULTS

The Planning Board  decided to submit the ordinances that were presented.

On the articles that were not accepted this year, Dick would like to have the members study those articles and have more work done on them at out next meeting. Some of the commitees are still working and we would like to see their goals and objectives met. Some of the members would like to have these committees work with the Planning Board to perhaps avoid duplicating their efforts.    

Sarah Kimball brought in copies of the master plan that has been printed and wants                 members to study this for discussion at the next meeting.

Dick Bennett reported that he submitted a budget of $8000 to the budget hearing. This              was intended to be used for copying, etc. This was the figure used in l987 when the  Master  plan was mailed.
        
Ira Lynn made a motion to adjourn. This was seconded by Betsey Harding and voted unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at 10 PM.

Susan G. Way,
Secretary to the Planning Board
