1. PUBLIC INPUT: Robert Davis came in to discuss the possibility of a subdivision of one of his lots. Paul King was in the represent the Alichwers with another road/driveway proposal.
ROBERT DAVIS was in the present a conceptual design of a possible subdivision of his farm property. He would like to deed an approximately two-acre parcel and wanted to discuss what was needed for access. He would like a 50-foot right-of-way. Sarah Kimball pointed out that he would not have the necessary 200-foot frontage. After considerable discussion, it was decided that he would build a private road 50 feet wide to accommodate this frontage. Bob Davis then asked about the possibility of subdividing the Hazelton Place lot into two 75-acre lots. The Board did not see a problem with that.
THADDEUS THORNE SURVEYS REPRESENTING LAURIE GABRIEL: No one appeared before the board.
PAUL KING REPRESENTING JOHN & JULIE ALICHWER: R-12 Lot 184;
Proposed cluster home development. Paul presented another conceptual idea for a 4-lot cluster home development. These homes would have access from a driveway built off the proposed entrance road. Dick Bennett has had some positive comments on this lower impact development. Betsey Harding still does not agree on the lower driveway exiting through the Eagle Mountain House parking area and feels that this is hazardous now without adding additional traffic. A question of signage or some type of marking on this parking lot was also discussed. At times when there is an event at Eagle Mountain House, the space where the driveway is intended usually would be blocked with parked cars. Paul King will take these ideas back to the Alichwers and return in the future.
