Approval of the September 5, 2013 Meeting Minutes

Motion to Approve by Mr. Wrisley

Second by Mr. Muller III

All Approved

New Business:

Application by W. Amadon for a Boundary Line Adjustment on tax map parcels #39.4-1-32 (410 Leaning Rd) and #39.4-1-33 (408 Leaning Rd).  He is owner of both of these parcels.

Lauren reviewed information she had researched on non-conforming lots (which both these lots are) that is contradictory.

Mr. Muller suggested that Mr. Amadon be safe and take this request to the ZBA to avoid later questions on the deeds for these parcels.  It is Mr. Amadon’s intent to sell the second lot in the future.

All agreed this was the best way to handle and Ms. Murphy has informed Mr. Bateman, Chair of the ZBA, and will provide him the background information.

Move to adjourn by Mr. Muller, seconded by Mr. Wrisley.  All in favor.  Meeting adjourned at 6:05.

Respectively Submitted

About Olive Alexander

Although I grew up in Essex on my grandparents’ farm and developed strong ties to farming, I wanted to see more of the world and experience the differences in cultures and people. I spent nearly fifty years in England, New Hampshire, Texas and New Jersey with trips to almost all of the fifty states and Singapore, an incomparable learning experience. I now live on property that has been in our family for three generations and still love the fields, the farms and the animals.
