Planning Board -2- May 21, 1979
Bertram Holder minor subdivision. Reg Hudson appeared.
Island View Lane is a private road which Mr. Holder has a right to
use. Mr. Hudson was requested to write the Board and tell them
what his client wants to do regarding the road. There is a
question as to whether the road should be built to specifications
of the town for roads or covenanted that it will be built to
specifications when the other portion of property comes in as a
major subdivision. The maps will need items listed on sheet for
procedures in presenting a sketch map of a minor subdivision.
Macari subdivision. Howard Young appeared. There was discussion
regarding the reserved area by the entrance. One of the suggestions
was that it be made part of the roadway along with a portion of Lot
i on the other side of the entrance. There are two drainage areas
shown. Mr. Young explained that these drainage areas have growth
on them and he finds natural areas recharge water better than the
basic recharge basin that gets silted over. He computed the volume
of water based on the elevation of the ground water and figured out
the contour line the 6 inch waterfall would go to and left that as
a drainage area. The water elevation was 6.9 to l0 feet. It could
fill with water to nine feet before it hit neighbor's private
property. There is no fence shown in the design. Mr. Raynor said
if this is done it would have to be done in conjunction with the
approvals of the Highway Committee, Highway Superintendent and the
Highway Inspector. Mr. Young is to send his explanation to these
people for their decision. Mr. Raynor thought Lot #41 might have
water on it and Mr. Young asked if there would be any problem with
filling. Mr. Raynor said it would probably be classified as
buildable but he would like the Board to make a physical inspection
of the property at this particular area. Macari owns the fee to all
the rights-of-way shown on the m~. Lot 16 turned out to be not a
good area for drainage but a good building site. There is going to
be a problem in constructing roads so as not to disturb the rights-
of-way. They will require a waiver from the requirements for lot 16
as it is a flaglot. There was a question about whether there was
enough park and playground area and it was determined that there
was. A right-of-way runs through one of the park and playground
areas. There was some discussion about the park and playground area
by Laurel Lake~ The developer wants to give the lot owners access
to the beach. There was some question about 49 lot owners going to
140 feet of beach. This matter will be open for discussion. The
rotary at lots 12, 13 and 14 will also require a waiver. The exit
and entrance will be reviewed again at a field inspection. Mr.
Olsen, attorney for Mr. Macari, will be contacted to see if the
developer would be interested in having a cluster subdivision.
On motion made by Mr. Coyle, seconded by Mr. Gordon, it was
RESOLVED that the concept of swale construction of the roads
and drainage in the subdivision to be known as "Sebastian's Cove,
Section I be denied; the clearing of the intersection with Mill
Road be done to the west preserving large trees and the slope be
cut back to the east forth feet; the spur to the east from the

A letter from Rudolph Bruer regarding the release of Lot 2

was reviewed. There are many problems with this and Mr. Raynor
will write a letter to Mr. Bruer explaining them.
Fairway Farms. The filling in of the swales in this subdivision
in violation of the covenants and restrictions on the property was
discussed. A letter from Mr. Babcock, President of the Corporation,
was read and placed on file. A study will have to be made as to
the construction of the swales as several residents claim they
never had swales in the first place. Mr. Tasker, Town Attorney,
will also be consulted on this matter.
