CIP Hearing

The hearing was noticed in the Ledger and Transcript as well as the Post Office and Town Office. John Halper gave the presentation and explained the Executive Summary which has been inserted at the beginning the report. He also made a bar graph showing the proposed cost for each of the next ten years. It was decided that the graph should be added to the bottom of the page listing the projects recommended by the CIP committee of the Planning Board. There was a suggestion that this report be put on a CD for historical purposes. A questions arose about our regulations and impact fees. John explained that we have authority to study impact fees as long as we
have a Master Plan and a Capital Improvements Plan in place. This regulation was voted on in 2000. With no public input, the public portion of the hearing was closed at 8:15 p.m.
After Bob read the rules for deliberation. It was moved to adopt the CIP presented at the hearing with the changes decided on tonight. All members listed above voted to accept the CIP. Dario then moved that the Planning Board express their gratitude and appreciation to John Halper for all his hard work on this project. This was a unanimous vote. Bob mentioned that now impact fees can be studied and a formula could be calculated.
