Mr. Lauber said that the sensitivity for the area has been considered – especially the Campbell Pond area. Trying to carve off smaller lots and hopefully have larger lots for his children. The Lauber family has thought about Campbell Pond carefully. At this point, they are only considering the proposed lots.

Monadnock Conservancy – are they considered abutters and do they have a comment.

There is an easement access to Campbell Pond but it is not on the proposed lots.
