Mr. Bage brought in two more copies of the site plan for an addition to Lisa's Beauty Parlor. The plan shows drainage and exterior lighting. It will be asphalted by the North Road. It will be a one-story addition. Mr. Raynor requested a copy of the plans for the Board. Mr. Howard Terry, Building Inspector, will have to go over the plan and make his recommendations. Charles Rand property in Orient. William Smith in. Mr. Raynor had talked to the Town Attorney and it is his opinion that lots 4A, 5A and 6A are separate entities and lots there cannot be included in the other numbered lots for square footage requirements. Mr. Smith answered that the property to the north is all over 40,000 square feet. Drainage will be required for a major subdivision. The area designated as 'private beach' should be labelled 'park and playground'. Mr. Raynor said the Board takes a dim view of 15' right-of-ways. Mr. Smith asked if it was 50' would it have to be paved. They would have to use the right-of-way for access to the State road. It will be necessary to have covenants and restrictions on lots I and 2 not to be further subdivided. There was discussion regarding the State not accepting four driveways onto the State road. There was discussion as to what type of right-of-way would be required to a burial ground. Planning Board - -2- February 28, 1977 Greenbriar Acres. Mr. Cron brought in four copies of the amended preliminary map showing the road to Tut's Acres lining up with the map of Greenbriar Acres. Centernaial Manor. Richard Cron, Esq., appeared. It was agreed by the members that Independence Drive and Constitution Drive come into Concord at right angles. The intersection with Stillwater should be left as is. It is necessary to have a fire hydrant or firewell for every twenty lots and one should be placed in Section I. One of the county's recommendations about a catch basin being higher than the manhole was pointed out and will be dealt with. The recharge basin will have to be squared off. Soundwood Farm. Richard Cron, Esq. appeared. The distance between the roads is too great. Lot 23 should not have access to Oregon Road. This will require a fire hydrant or firewell as it is over 20 lots. There was discussion about widening the entrance to the park and playground by ten feet. Mr. Cron was told to correct the defects and the Planning Board will take another look at it. William Pollert - Lighthouse Farm. Mr. Pollert appeared. Mr. Pollert had presented a five-lot major subdivision and wanted advice from the Planning Board as to how he should proceed. There was discussion about making it a four-lot minor subdivision. Mr. Pollert will make up his mind what he wants to do and come back. Fischer Estate. Lew Edson and Rene Gendron appeared. With the permission of Mr. Gendron, Mr. Raynor changed the map in the file to read 'sketch' rather than 'preliminary'. Mr. Edson requested sketch plan approval and a date for a public hearing. Sound Road Estates. Steve Tspntakis appeared. Larry Tuthill, Town Engineer, asked for 200 foot tangents on the reverse curves because of difficulty in maneuvering a car. They are presently about 50 feet. The Board would like to take the comments of Mr. Young and Mr. Tsontakis and send them, along with the comments of Mr. Tuthill, to the Soil Conservation District for its recommendations. An affidavit of ownership has not been received in this office. Mr. Tsontakis requested that a date be set for the final hearing for the map. A fire hydrant or firewell Planning Board ~ -3- F~ruary 28, 1977 will be required for every 20 lots. Send a copy of the regulations to Mr. Tsontakis. Mr. Tuthill talked about a concrete wall under the recharge basin because there could be a washout and children could get underneath. Mr. Tsontakis said he had talked to Mr. Dean and he indicated he would rather see a berm. Mr. Tsontakis was told to meet with Mr. Dean and Mr. Tuthill to work the problem out. Mr. Tuthill had suggested that access should be on Sunset Drive and this would eliminate the turnaround by lots 17 and 18. Richmond Creek Farms (Skwara farm). Mr. John McNulty and Mr. Neschie appeared. This is owned by Queens Structure Corporation, the same owners as listed on the map, individually. It will be required that they have 5% for park and playground. FOr recreation purposes, any meadowland must be~cluded. Line of meadowland should be shown and indicated as such on the map. The intersect with the Main Road is not at right angles and the County will bounce it back. This map will come under County Planning Department jurisdiction. The County usually objects to a grid pattern. It backs against another sizeable piece of property. When asked if the Skwara's have any interest in the property, the answer was in the negative. Mr. Coyle asked if the property goes to the middle of the Creek or just to the highwater mark. There is no provision made for a recharge basin. Contours and road profiles will be required. The men questioned the necessity of a recharge basin and Mr. Ray-nor explained that the Superintendent of Highways has run into many problems with drainage and requires recharge basins in all subdivisions. Mr. McNulty requested a copy of Subdivision of Land regulations and Highway Specifications. Olmsted minor subdivision. Mr. & Mrs. John Haas appeared. The Board of Appeals has approved the underwidth lots subject to Planning Board approval of the minor subdivision into three lots. Bank run has to be put in the right-of-way. Lots must be numbered. Covenants and restrictions will be required to be filed that the oversized lots will never be resubdivided. This will have to go to the County Planning Commission because it is on Mattituck Creek. We need six copies of the map as corrected. Old Town Park. James Bitses appeared. Mr. Bitses plaus on putting on all kinds of restrictive covenants, one of which is forbidding the cutting of some of the trees on the property. He wants to leave the beachfront area vacant. Mr. Bitses says all houses will face south or southwest and he will restrict for architectural approval by him. This should be limited to a 12 lot development. Either increase the size of the lots or the vacant land. The building inspector always uses right angles for measuring so some thought should be given to that. The road Planning Board ~ -4- Fe~uary 28, 1977 will be required to be paved 36 feet, according to Town Specifications. He was told to come in with a plan that complies with the Code. He was asked about provision for drainage and he said it will draiU on the natural course and disappear as it does now. He is planning a footpath for access to the rear of the lots facing on Bayview Road. Mr. Coyle questioned the fact that if certain trees are to be preserved, there would be the possibility of having to go to the Board of Appeals for variances on sideyards and setbacks. Mr. Bitses agreed that would be possible. On motion made by Mr. Coyle, seconded by Mr. Gordon, it was RESOLVED to give final approval to the map of the minor subdivision of Ethel Andersen, located in Orient, and authorize the vice-chairman to sign the map.
