Indian Farm Estates
The Board is in receipt of an email from Ms. Thompson stating that she does not have a solid construction plan in place to present to the Board this evening. She went on to explain that due to the approaching winter, they will utilize these months for planning. Ms. Thompson noted that she hopes to have all plans ready by the spring. The Board took no action.
Extension Request – Brigham Hill III
Present was: Niel Fossile
The Board is in receipt of a fax dated November 9, 2010 from Linda Fossile requesting a one year extension to complete the Brigham Hill III subdivision. Ms. Fossile also included a progress report and construction schedule for the Board’s review.
Mr. Fossile explained to the Board that he has had some difficulty in working with the Light and Power Department as work has been held up while waiting for electric work to be done. He noted his frustrations and stated that once the electrical is complete he will finish paving up to the water tank in order to give the DPW access to the tank.
He has a paving schedule and will do this in three phases. The first would be to pave from Forbes to the intersection, then Exeter down to the end and finishing with the cul-de-sac. Mr. Fossile will be requesting lot releases for all the lots at the same time.
The Board noted that Mr. Fossile has been working all along and making a good faith effort to complete the subdivision. For these reasons the Board agreed to grant an extension until November 30, 2011.
Tom Collins, seconded by Dirk Underwood, made a motion to grant an extension to complete the Brigham Hill III subdivision until November 30, 2011.
Vote: 4-0-0, Unanimous
