General comments—Rick Davies has some information which he will
forward to Jean Lightfoot (Secretary) in regards to affordable housing
that she can forward to the balance of the board. Individuals then divided into two areas of the meeting room for their
individual meetings. BOARD MEMBERS REVIEWING
REGULATIONS Barbara Annis chaired this group. A list of possible projects was offered and some discussion on each
was held. 1. Recommendations in
the audit draft (Master Plan). 2. State Building Code
versus Town Building Code Definition of
building and structure are different. When building
permits are required Outside
construction of chimneys (material being used) 3. Clarify height—see
definitions and general provision Now that there
is new technology and sprinkler systems should we restrict Maybe should go
by percentage of size versus height 4. No clarification in
Zoning regarding 2 commercial buildings on one lot Currently if
20,000 square feet is not adequate can construct a second building
Not to exceed 40,000 square feet but that is not two separate
entities 5. Should we address
gross floor area? 6. Sign regulations: these were not clear and BOS having a problem interpreting temporary signs sandwich boards flag type signs 7. Define unit found in
the Open Space Ordinance 8. In the Subdivision
Regulations Issuance of
Decision time is incorrect due to change in law Review the
portion regarding conditional approval As we grant waivers
frequently on monuments should that be re-worded or eliminated On check list
VA:4—we have been questioned what this means-should it be clarified Inspection of work
currently is under the direction of the Selectmen-why if we require the
applicant to have a Clerk of the Works on behalf of the town? Review
Performance Guarantee as this is also under the Selectmen 9. In the Site Plan Should we possibly notify
abutters by sending an agenda that a change maybe forthcoming in their
neighborhood? 10.
Should we finish that portion of the subdivision regulations in
regards to roads—remind Allan We comment
about private roads in the Zoning
Are we going to allow them?
What would the standards be for them? 11. Open space table and
text do not match—should clarify 12. Should go through
and review terms 13.
Now that we have passed (at town meeting) about wind mills what
is going to be the restriction on their height?
Should we address now or see what new state law is developed? 14.
Now that wood burning furnaces (outdoors) are becoming more
popular should we include something about them in the Building Code? 15. Driveways are
becoming more and more a problem should we re-address them? 16.
Investigate implications for local ordinances from “Green”
site/building development requests such as for a “LEED” certified
project. It was agreed by all present that we should address Zoning Changes
first. The priority would be to have the Local and State Building
Codes comparable. Everyone
is to work on this for the next meeting.
Each can make recommendations and forward by e-mail to all of the
others—this will allow everyone to review everyone else’s
recommendations and have the opportunity to think about each other’s
approach. Meeting concluded at 9:15 PM
