3
00:00:41.760 --> 00:00:57.920
of 7 o'clock. So, we'll try and get through as much as we can. Um, any board comment? Nope. >> All right. Excellent. uh chair or director's report. >> Uh well, folks, by now I've sent you um example bylaws from a handful of

4
00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:14.320
communities for senior housing and inclusionary housing. By the end of the week, I'll send you some more examples for uh cluster housing. Once again, I'd like to receive your comments by the end of the month. Any

5
00:01:14.320 --> 00:01:30.960
way you want to give them to me. That way I can put together draft bylaws that we can look over together um in June and we'll spend the summer hashing out the language until we come up with something that we're all comfortable

6
00:01:30.960 --> 00:01:49.200
with. And then we'll uh spend the fall shopping those bylaws around all the other boards, committees, commissions, and departments public forum. and then we'll bring them to next year's town meeting. So, that's really all I

7
00:01:49.200 --> 00:02:05.159
have for you. >> Okay. Excellent. Thank you. Um, all right. In that case, uh, we will move on to the first thing on our docket. Uh, we have an ANR for Zero Reservoir Road.

This the one we just signed. So, Brian Marcetti here, Marti Engineering, uh here on behalf of STP Realy Trust. I believe Justin presented this to you at the last meeting. Um, so this revised ANR plan reflects the four

9
00:02:40.720 --> 00:02:57.680
lots with uh the switch from when we were with a common drive now to individual access from their lots adding the uh proposed drainage easements to the three properties involved here. So as I said Justin presented at the last meeting he wanted to make sure everyone

10
00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:13.920
was on board before we printed out the myars. So the myar has been delivered to board. So, you have everything here uh for signature. >> Lee, you you said the uh the board members have endorsed it. >> Oh, they're all signed.

19
00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:46.639

29
00:08:33.599 --> 00:08:49.680
peerreview from Graves. Uh, we responded to that in kind. Uh, received his comment letter back a few days ago. No, all comments have been addressed. Um, in addition to that, it was also requested that a phasing plan or sequence, if you will, would be provided, which we did

30
00:08:49.680 --> 00:09:06.160
provide. Uh, effectively, um, it starts at 64 Cross Road, transitions over to 68 and then to 30 Pine Grove with the addition being the last. uh with the intent that effectively as trades finish at each building, they kind of just move down the road. So, uh we did put that

31
00:09:06.160 --> 00:09:23.839
into writing and was submitted online uh through the portal. Uh with that being said, if there's any other questions from the board, I'll be more than happy to answer them. Um and no, uh I didn't have any additional questions. Uh, and if Graves

38
00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:23.440

64
00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:30.720
960 Mass Avenue in Lunberg. Great. >> Thank you very much. Uh Ryan Proctor, Adullis and Roy representing the applicant. Uh before I give my presentation where it's been acknowledged we have a special permit and we do need a supermajority. Would the board prefer I don't want to be disrespectful of the abiding time, but

65
00:19:30.720 --> 00:19:46.240
would the board prefer if we defer this presentation to when you have a full board? >> It's entirely up to you. >> Okay. Um the chair can sign the Mullen rule certificate and participate after viewing. Um you're the applicant. It's

66
00:19:46.240 --> 00:20:02.080
all at your peril. >> Okay. I will give a brief presentation then. Um happy to take any questions and then as noted we will um I expect that this will be sent to peer review. Um and we'll request continuence at that time. Uh so we have filed uh four applications all associated with the uh parent

67
00:20:02.080 --> 00:20:18.320
project at 10 Parameter Road. I was here personally about two months ago I believe for the ANR for the creation of these lots and at that time we did have a discussion with the board on the phasing of the proposed project and the applications that we've submitted is in response to that discussion at that

68
00:20:18.320 --> 00:20:34.799
time. So the four applications are really in uh sort of two parts. So I'll just read them out real quickly. the uh special uh the stormwater permit PBSW-26-12 and the uh special permit for the common

69
00:20:34.799 --> 00:20:52.240
driveway PBSP uh-26-3 are for the construction of the plan I have on the top here on my board uh which is for five single family dwellings each with a private driveway and a common driveway that will serve four single family homes which are

70
00:20:52.240 --> 00:21:08.640
identified as lots uh 5 6 8 and N the common driveway itself I'll speak to you first. So we are not seeking any waiverss uh for since this is new development. So um the common driveway is designed entirely within the uh as

71
00:21:08.640 --> 00:21:24.080
defined in your bylaw and I do not believe we had any comments from the fire department or police department uh or I'm not mistaken any of the other uh departments in town on that application. The remainder of the lots will be accessed through the frontage on either

72
00:21:24.080 --> 00:21:41.440
Ruth Street or Parmentor Street on the westerly portion of the site. For the individual lots uh for storm water management, we are proposing BMPPS typically with a roof uh excuse me driveway stone recharge trenches along the driveways ultimately discharging to

73
00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:57.679
rain gardens each equipped with a sediment for bay uh at the bottom of the hill which is along the property frontage. For the common driveway itself, we have a little bit more of a conventional drainage system again with stone recharge trenches along the driveway. We do have an infiltration basin that I'll just point to along Ruth

74
00:21:57.679 --> 00:22:13.679
Street and a rain garden uh along the upper portion of lot 8, I believe. We have uh erosion control barriers proposed along the property frontage and throughout the limit of work associated with the development. Each of the

75
00:22:13.679 --> 00:22:29.760
proposed lots will be served by private septic and we have received an approval from the conservation commission and the Lunberg water district to extend water to this development. So we will have municipal water serving uh serving each of these lots. Uh with the exception of the water main extension, we are not

76
00:22:29.760 --> 00:22:46.880
proposing any work within conservation jurisdictional areas for those two permits uh on Ruth and Parmentor that I just spoke of. uh with the exception of the three lots on the other common driveway which I have not spoken about because those are to the other two permits. So at that point I'd like to stop there

77
00:22:46.880 --> 00:23:02.159
and see if there's any questions first on those uh six excuse me five single family lots and the common driveway serving the four lots and then I can go on to the the other two permit applications. >> How are you handling drainage

78
00:23:02.159 --> 00:23:19.360
maintenance on the common driveway? So I believe there's an operation and maintenance agreement and manual that we've submitted. I assume that that would get um recorded along with any >> oper is there an association or some other way to financially guarantee that

79
00:23:19.360 --> 00:23:35.120
that work is done by those four lots served by the driveway? >> I believe there will be an HOA created for those four lots only. >> Uh we'd like to see that before we approve everything. Okay. >> Yeah, we'll want to run that by town council. >> Okay. Um, do you have turning movements

80
00:23:35.120 --> 00:23:52.200
of the firetruck on that common driveway? >> Yes, I believe it's on the detail page, which I can try to flip to. >> I can emergency turn around. >> Yeah, I didn't get all the way down there. >> Okay. >> Um,

81
00:23:52.559 --> 00:24:12.880
>> okay. Was there any consideration for some sort of grass pave on the throat of that lot to make it an easier through than that multiple movement? >> Uh I'm sorry at the entrance of the driveway

82
00:24:12.880 --> 00:24:29.039
>> uh where the fire department turnaround is. Yep. Was there any thought of like uh using some of some sort of grass pave system to make it like a U that isn't a permanent driveway, doesn't necessarily impact your storm water calculations, but provides for a movement where the

83
00:24:29.039 --> 00:24:56.720
fire department isn't trying to do a three or five point turn at the end of a driveway. >> Yeah, I'm happy to look into that. I think that's a that's a good idea. And um we've talked about over time, I I think you were one of the proponents of this, either doing individual permits

84
00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:12.880
for everything or phasing it. Uh so we'd look for you to submit a phasing plan that hits construction milestones. Uh I'm sure if you ask Steve, he would send you the one that was submitted for Crossroad. >> Okay. >> Or cross street. I always get them confused. Uh but it just gives us

85
00:25:12.880 --> 00:25:28.880
something that we can attach to the decision. Gives us an easily identifiable recordable document so that going forward if this project is sold or in 10 years if they're still building these because interest rates in the market, we have

86
00:25:28.880 --> 00:25:45.279
something that that's tied to it. >> Definitely. Yeah. And our intention was based on our previous conversations that each of the single individual lots here would be one phase, >> if you will, where they could be released at the end of construction. The common driveway itself with those four lots would be a separate phase.

87
00:25:45.279 --> 00:26:00.960
>> Correct. But I think what what I'm looking for is to not have what is there? Nine lots here. >> Yes. >> To not have nine lots open at the same time. >> Understood. Okay. >> To have two lots open and as one closes out the next one opens. Now, that's a

88
00:26:00.960 --> 00:26:27.919
little more challenging with the common driveway, but I think that can be worked into a phasing plan where maybe the two front ones are or the the front one is done and then you ease into the back ones as you move along. >> Understood. Okay. All right. Um,

89
00:26:27.919 --> 00:26:44.240
if that's all we have, then uh we can move on to public comment. Um, do we have anybody in the room or on Zoom that would like to address any of this? I will just note I do still have the

90
00:26:44.240 --> 00:27:00.640
before. I'm sorry. >> Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, if I skipped ahead, please. >> No, that's okay. There isn't one more common driveway that was lumped in together. I just I didn't want to go through everything and something get lost in translation. So, there is one more common driveway. you can take public comment first. Okay. >> Uh thank you. Uh so the second two

91
00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:19.279
applications were uh PBSW-26 uh-13 and PB uh SP-26-4. I'll just pull this board up. So the remaining two applications were a common driveway only at the uh at the

92
00:27:19.279 --> 00:27:34.720
turning point of Ruth Street. This project we did just open in front of the conservation commission at their meeting last week. I believe it was continued at that time. There were a few outstanding comments and questions that they had. Uh but again, this this common driveway is serving only three lots. The stormwater

93
00:27:34.720 --> 00:27:50.159
management system is uh nearly identical to the single family lots and the other common driveways where we have stone recharge trenches along the proposed driveway ultimately discharging to one of two uh rain gardens or infiltration basins at the bottom of Ruth Street or

94
00:27:50.159 --> 00:28:06.880
at the lower portion of the uh of the property. The entire property drains from the top of the hill uh down towards the road. So that's where ultimately all more of our storm water best management practices end up. Um, again, we are not seeking any waiverss for the common driveway application here. It is

95
00:28:06.880 --> 00:28:21.840
designed in compliance with your regulations, and I do not believe that there are any department comments for this application either. That is all I have to say about that one. >> Uh, I didn't see a turning movement on that when I just looked at the plans. >> Okay. >> For the truck.

96
00:28:21.840 --> 00:28:37.760
>> Um, I again assume if the fire department didn't comment, it's not a big deal, but it's something I'd like to have us to have on the record. >> Absolutely. There's one on the top. >> Oh, there's a turnaround. I don't see the turning movement.

97
00:28:37.760 --> 00:28:54.240
>> I'm sorry. I'm sorry. >> Um, all of my comments for the last application stand for this one. >> Sure. >> Um, with the addition of it appears that your uh overflow for the detention basin is discharging into the road, which I

98
00:28:54.240 --> 00:29:11.120
understand is the wetland, which I understand is the low point. My concern would be that if the town in the future decides, oh wow, we messed up. We needed to create that culde-sac, they now are receiving the overflow from

99
00:29:11.120 --> 00:29:27.919
that detention basin onto their property and anything that comes out of it becomes their responsibility under the MS4. And um if there's a way to have that not be the case, that would be preferable. >> Okay. All right. We will look at that.

100
00:29:27.919 --> 00:29:43.039
I have a comment. This might be a Lunberg comment and not a Dillisen Roy comment, but >> I'm not a fan that we don't have feedback from the fire department for this plan. >> I was just going to mention that. I will

101
00:29:43.039 --> 00:29:58.000
double check with the chief tomorrow and make sure that he's reviewed the plan for adequate access. >> Okay, perfect. Thank you. only cuz there was so many comments about the fire road 15 that it's off of and the quality of that road and just I want to make sure that they

102
00:29:58.000 --> 00:30:14.480
>> Well, we're up here on this one and 15 is down here. >> Yeah, but >> so but this is this is sort of a dead end and then this is driveway to homes along the lake. Um but I agree it would be it would be nice to ensure that the fire department is confident that the

103
00:30:14.480 --> 00:30:39.279
the turning movements are okay with them. >> I Yeah, thank you for that comment. I agree. A brief we're okay with it is definitely better than looking at a green checkbox. So Yep. Thank you. Right. Um does anybody on the board have anything more they'd like to address?

104
00:30:39.279 --> 00:30:56.679
Right. Uh if that's the case, uh then we will take public comment. Um yes, please. Um, if you could come up to the podium, uh, give your name and address and, uh, continue on with, >> okay, >> what you'd like to say.

105
00:30:57.679 --> 00:31:12.480
>> Uh, my name is Judy Viviano and I live on 13 Ruth Street. Um, my I live on an access road where I have the right of way. So, I sit downwood before the lake. I'm right on the lake. This is above the

106
00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:30.000
property is above me. I I would be very interested in looking at a plot plan because my concern in the future and I've had experience where we've had a lot of rain of flooding and if they clear cut the hill and build homes, it's

107
00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:47.200
going to create there's nothing to absorb. Right now it's loaded with trees and everything. And if they cut all those trees, it's going to the rain isn't going to have any place to go. And my concern is that they have appropriate drainage along that area so that the

108
00:31:47.200 --> 00:32:04.240
water doesn't flow down because I'm going to be the recipient of all the water because I sit very low and then it's going to go from me right into the lake. >> Okay. So plans like this we send to our consulting engineer to review.

109
00:32:04.240 --> 00:32:19.440
Um we've done that and we're waiting to hear back with their comments. they will undoubtedly have some comments that they will want the applicant to address. So, if you keep an eye out for the

110
00:32:19.440 --> 00:32:35.840
Graves comments on opengv.com or what is it? >> What's the address? >> OpenGV.com using the PV >> or just contact the planning department and we'll make sure you get a copy of the engineering review. There's probably

111
00:32:35.840 --> 00:32:51.519
going to be a couple done with with this project. >> Yep. >> And I'll make sure to pass on your concerns to the engineer. Yeah, that's my biggest concern because I don't want to get flooded and and we did and I think it was last year when they had the

112
00:32:51.519 --> 00:33:08.799
ice and the buildup >> because my neighbor clearcut a little piece of property and as a result I got an awful lot of water in my yard to the point where I was considering whether or not I had to do something about it and this is really going to be a concern.

113
00:33:08.799 --> 00:33:23.440
>> Um >> so thank you. Yeah. Uh just to give you an additional piece of information, um the storm water um permits that we look to approve, part of what their >> um goal or idea is is they should be

114
00:33:23.440 --> 00:33:39.200
setting up the property in such a way that any water that that is on the property doesn't leave the property. It infiltrates before. Um so I ideally the permits they have to go through should protect your property. >> Okay. For every storm water permit,

115
00:33:39.200 --> 00:34:03.679
there are 40 standard conditions from soup to notch beginning to end. Okay. To >> make sure that they do it right. >> Okay. Thank you. >> Thanks very much. >> Uh would anybody else like to speak? Uh and I don't see anybody on Zoom. Um

116
00:34:03.679 --> 00:34:19.200
Oh, yes. >> A quick question. If you could sorry just as formality if you could come up to the podium please. >> I just have a quick question. So when you do the continuence for this um there will be an opportunity to speak at the next meeting. >> Absolutely.

117
00:34:19.200 --> 00:34:34.960
>> Okay. That's >> okay. >> Um all right. If we've taken public comment uh we need to continue this. Um so I will accept a motion for that. Uh, unless did you have anything else you

118
00:34:34.960 --> 00:34:50.560
wanted to address? >> Question. >> Yes. >> Um, I frankly I'm not the design engineer on this project, but has this been sent to peer review already? >> Yes, it has. >> Okay, then we'd be happy to request a continuence to your next meeting, please. >> All right, sounds good. >> Thank you.

119
00:34:50.560 --> 00:35:12.800
Uh motion to continue 10 Parameter Road storm water permits PBSW-26-12 and PBSW26-13 and special permits PBSP-26-3 and PBSP-26-4 to the planning board's next meeting on

120
00:35:12.800 --> 00:35:29.280
June 8th, 2026 at 6:05 p.m. >> Second. >> Moved and seconded. All in favor? I >> I >> I >> thank you. >> Excellent. And 860 New West Townsen contacted us for a continuence, so we're

121
00:35:29.280 --> 00:35:45.760
not dealing with that tonight. >> I move we continue 860 New West Towns and Road PBSA26-1, PBSP26-1, and PBSW26-1 to 8 June at 605.

122
00:35:45.760 --> 00:36:00.320
>> Second. >> Moved and seconded. All in favor? I >> I >> Great. Oh, look at that. We did make through all of it. Make it through all of it. >> Um, okay. Then we can move on to

123
00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:18.240
decisions and business. Um, I assume Matt probably >> I haven't seen the master plan, so >> I'm not ready to discuss and approve it. >> All right. >> Okay. We'll make that a June item as well. >> Yeah. And then uh 250 and 356 Hollis

124
00:36:18.240 --> 00:36:35.440
Hill Road uh tax title. Um let me get to that >> again. I think that this is the ones that we discussed briefly at our last meeting. The old Lake Lodge and the uh land in the rear. Um I think that there

125
00:36:35.440 --> 00:36:50.400
are a multitude of things we could do with the lake lodge. uh I don't think financially that the claiming of it makes much sense or that we would find the funding to do so. Um

126
00:36:50.400 --> 00:37:06.880
so yes, I think there are ways and things we could do with it. Uh and if the select board had a magic money tree or a secret sack of cash like in the cartoons with the money sign on it, I'd be all for it. But I think at this point

127
00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:23.760
we need to worry more about um some longevity and economic development and put our energies into commercial reasonzoning and uh encouragement of of business. >> Agreed.

128
00:37:23.760 --> 00:37:44.320
>> Yeah. Uh, I move we recommend the select board uh place these properties for auction uh unless another department or board has uh a pressing need for them and the money to pay for them. >> I will second.

129
00:37:44.320 --> 00:38:02.400
>> All right. Uh moved and seconded. All in favor? I >> I >> Great. Um, does anybody have anything additional they'd like to discuss or outside of these? >> Nope.

130
00:38:02.400 --> 00:38:17.200
>> Excellent. All right, then we will go on to committee reports. Um, I there wasn't uh haven't had a master plan steering committee since the last meeting. Um,

131
00:38:17.200 --> 00:38:33.599
open space committee meeting is this Wednesday. Um, >> so you've invited me to that meeting. >> Um, I'm going to discuss with the open space committee the possibility

132
00:38:33.599 --> 00:38:51.040
of setting up a conservation fund where they go to every annual town meeting and ask for a small amount of money that they can set aside for land conservation purposes.

133
00:38:51.040 --> 00:39:07.839
2500, $5,000. Um, if you do that for three or four years, you're going to have enough money to pay for an appraisal of a property should one come up for sale through the

134
00:39:07.839 --> 00:39:23.440
tax title uh through a a chapter withdrawal submission. Um, if you find a property that you think the town should buy and you want to interest a regional land

135
00:39:23.440 --> 00:39:40.079
trust to help you with getting a grant for that purchase, they usually like to see that the town has some skin in the game. And that skin in the game usually takes the form of the town paying for the property appraisal. So, if you set

136
00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:55.920
aside some money every year in a conservation fund, at some point you will have enough money to pay for a a property appraisal should a property come up through the chapter land withdrawal process. So,

137
00:39:55.920 --> 00:40:11.839
that's what I'm going to pitch to you guys tomorrow night. >> Excellent. Excellent. Um, and I just double check the agenda is posted. It has the Zoom link, so you can just follow that. >> Okay. So, I may be in my jammies, but we'll for sure.

138
00:40:11.839 --> 00:40:27.680
>> All right. Excellent. Um, is Matt Municipal Capital and Economic? >> Okay, great. Skip those three. >> Uh, stormwater task force meeting is on Thursday. I've got a three meeting week. >> Um, Montichus

139
00:40:27.680 --> 00:40:44.240
uh regional planning commission. >> Uh, that meeting was last week. I had a conflict so I could not attend. >> Okay. And then the uh joint transportation committee >> is this week on Wednesday. >> Okay. Okay. On

140
00:40:44.240 --> 00:41:00.000
these two items, uh MRPC representative from the planning board. >> Mhm. >> And transportation committee representative from the planning board. They've asked us who on the board they want

141
00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:16.960
uh who who on the board wants to take that position for the upcoming year. So, I've placed that on the agenda for next month. >> Yeah. >> If you want to do it again, >> everybody hates it, so that's why I do it. >> Okay. Just know that I'll be asking one

142
00:41:16.960 --> 00:41:33.200
of you to uh or to take over uh these positions for for another year. >> I'll be like Melly. >> That's it. >> That's it. Thanks. >> Um did everybody get an opportunity to go over the minutes from the last meeting?

143
00:41:33.200 --> 00:41:47.680
>> All right. Great. Okay, I'll accept a motion then. >> Um motion to approve the planning board's minutes from our April 27th, 2026 meeting. >> Second. Moved and seconded. All in favor? >> I I

144
00:41:47.680 --> 00:42:03.040
>> wonderful. Uh meeting schedule 6:00 as always. Um we have meetings June 28th, June 22nd, July 13th, and July 27th. All right. >> And the next one on the June uh 8th.

145
00:42:03.040 --> 00:42:23.079
>> Yeah. Yes. Okay. Um All right. Um and if that's where everybody is, then I'll accept a motion to adjourn the meeting. >> So moved. >> Second. >> Moved and seconded. All in favor? >> I >> I Wow, look at that. All right.
