Meeting began at 1:00 p.m.
Members continued developing drafts of Residential Summary & BOH Flow Charts (according to the current Zoning Bylaws, town bylaws, MGL, etc…). Minor revisions were made.
Members revisited the discussion from the previous Planning Board meeting, as concerned the proposals from J. Malkin & D. Greenbaum. Ms. Malkin proposed the committee set her proposal aside for now and focus the discussion on Mr. Greenbaum’s proposal. Committee members agreed to do so.
Mr. Greenbaum disseminated a document titled, “Discussion Issues”, to assist in the discussion of his original draft proposal titled, “Temporary Large House Regulations.”
Ms. Malkin read a list of additional yes/no questions that she proposed to be considered at some point in the discussion of the “Temporary Large House Regulations” draft.
Mr. Greenbaum emphasized the need to draft a simpler document with more chance of passage at town meeting.
The members discussed the specific areas of Mr. Greenbaum’s draft regulations with focus on G. & H. particularly. Members voted unanimously to change G. to read: “Does the project conform to ‘stretch code?’ in lieu of the existing sentence, “Does the project include any special energy conservation measures.” The members also voted unanimously to remove H.
Members discussed the benefits of requiring a three-dimensional model during the permitting process for projects over a certain size.
Members discussed the pros and cons of using FAR as a unit of measurement or some other tool.
Ms. Malkin suggested the temporary regulations extend to three years. There was discussion regarding whether a bylaw may have an expiration date and how that is different from a moratorium.
