Planning Board -2- July 2, 1979 Long Pond Estates. Richard Cron, Esq. appeared. Mr. Cron has had a discussion with Town Attorney Tasker with regard to the layout of this subdivision with 50 foot roads and five foot easements for swale drainage with the condition that covenants and restrictions are drafted in such a manner that the town would have full protection whether the roads are dedicated or remain private. Provision would be made that the easements would be dedicated as well as the roads. The homeowners can be billed if they fill the swales and it can be made a lien against the property. Mr. Raynor has conferred with Mr. Tasker on this and he would like Mr. Tasker to review the covenants and restrictions before any further action is taken. Because the town does not have specifications for swales, the Board would go along with the 50 foot roads. It was the consensus of the board that bonding include cablevision lines. ~unset Bluffs Estates. (Nina Stevens) Richard Cron, Esq., appeared. Mr. Cron was thinking of making four lots on the Sound as a minor subdivision, leaving the rest as a section two and selling as one piece. He has to get back to Ms. Stevens for her to make a decision. She does not want to go to the expense of putting in the road. Mr. Cron will get back to the Board. 0'Conne~ and Lizza.
