8-24 REFERRAL
- Improve East Hartford Program
After a review of Council Chairmen Kehoe’s 7-12-12 letter and some discussion, and upon a motion by Tom Fitzgerald, seconded by John Ryan, the Commission Voted (5-0) to submit the following report to the Town Council:
The Planning and Zoning Commission has reviewed the Improve East Hartford Program resolution referred by the Town Council on June 19, 2012 and submits the following report.
The Commission finds that the Resolution meets the requirement that it be in compliance with the Plan of Conservation and Development, the Sub-division Regulations and the Zoning and Inland/Wetlands regulations as demonstrated by Section 3(h) of the resolution.
As contained in our previous correspondence, the Commission recommends that the Town council use a Zone based criteria for establishing eligibility rather than the street based one that it has proposed. We feel this would be less cumbersome and easier to administer.
The Commission feels that it has no responsibility or authority for any other aspects of the program and therefore will not comment further.
Adopted July 19, 2012
