Mr. Randall reviewed the notes on the plans as they relate to the rights of way.
Mr. Randall advised that Mr. Barry and he had discussed the sharing of one right of way and decided that this was not the best option for them. He said that it would be troublesome for things like maintenance.
Mr. Randall said that he has not actually performed test pits on these lots, but he has located a spot on each lot that will be acceptable for septic systems sites. Mr. Randall said he would prefer not to do test pits at this point because there are other sites that people may want to build on. He noted that there is plenty of acreage to locate a septic on all the lots.
Mr. Hansen suggested that provisions be made for utilities to the back lots. Mr. Randall said he could add a note to the subdivision plans with regard to the utilities.
Mr. Randall submitted a letter to the Board stating that an acceptable site exists for septic systems on each of the lots.

Mr. Huss said he would like to look back at the subdivision approval on Coxboro Road as it appears that the Planning Board may have created a lot that doesn’t have access.
Mr. Hansen said he would look back at the subdivision and what was done.
Mr. Hansen said that the lot in question was suppose to become part of someone else’s lot. Mr. Huss said that it never did. Mr. Huss asked what the town now needs to do. Mr. Hansen said that it should be Mr. Connover’s issue as he was suppose to attach it to his property. Mr. Huss pointed out that he never did and now this lot doesn’t have access. Mr. Huss said that the assessor is recommending the abatement.
Mr. Hansen said he would review the subdivision.
