Dear Mr. Wilcenski:
As per a request from your office, I have reviewed the Preliminary Plat that has a revision
date of 1/21/15 for the development of a Clustered Subdivision on the property noted above. This
preliminary plat has been prepared by the office of John C. Ehlers, LS. Please consider the
following:
1. As shown on the preliminary plat, this clustered subdivision appears to meet the basic
requirements of Town Code with the exception of the following
2. Street trees have been shown along Orchard Street at 75'on center- Highway specifications
require street trees at 40' on center. Will new street trees also be required for the frontage
of the existing residential lot?
3. Lots two and three have a common access driveway. Will there be C &R's to definitively
indicate which lot owner is responsible for what. This new section of driveway should be
installed in the middle of the easement even if only one house is constructed. Does the
Planning Board feel that the developer should construct this section of driveway? What
happens when one lot is built on first? Is the second builder responsible for half the cost of
the common driveway?
4. Lot number one has a driveway flag of 16' in width. To meet highway specifications this
ROW width should be a minimum of 25' forthe installation of utilities. The minimum 12' wide
Stone Blend driveway can be constructed to one side of a 25' ROW to allow for the same
look as what has been proposed with the 16 'ROW. Underground utility access, without the
need to dig up the driveway surface again and again should be considered.
5. All work on any portion of new driveway access to the lots proposed within the Orchard
Street ROW must be constructed to meet the Town Highway Specifications for asphalt
roads.
If you have any questions regarding this reviev� lease contact my office.
