Final Review of 2010 Proposed Zoning Ordinance-Ballot Order/Language
Mrs. Sears explained that the ballot, with full text would come out to be about 15 pages. She contacted Local Government Center and was told that a summary can be placed on the ballot with full text being made available in several locations. She provided the Board with the summaries. She also noted that the ballot language was due to the Town Clerk the next day. It was noted that the wording on one of the petition warrant articles for the change to the special exception was not proper wording and was not completely clear. The Board was not comfortable changing it and confirmed it was how the article was submitted.
MOTION by Mr. Gylfphe to accept the summary of articles to be submitted to the Town Clerk and printed on the ballot.
SECOND by Mr. Stockus
Ms. Bonser was concerned about having the summary for the petition warrant article not written by the petitioners. Discussion was briefly on the process for petition warrant articles and how they are handled. Mr. Stockus noted that it was fairly common practice to use summaries on the ballot.
Ms. Mooney informed the Board on the news articles regarding the Planning Board’s proposed Zoning Ordinances that she has written and submitted to various people, the Town Newsletter and The Forum.
The Board only changed a few minor typos in the ordinances. Mrs. Sears noted that the summary for petition warrant article on wetlands district was taken right from the Purpose section of their proposed ordinance.
VOTE 6-Aye. 0- Opposed 0- Abstained MOTION PASSED
Mr. Gylphe noted that he was not running for reelection for his seat on this Board. He noted that he would like to become an alternate. He noted this way he could still remain involved when his schedule allows. The Board acknowledged Mr. Gylfphe’s long term commitment to the Board and to the Town. This leaves two open seats on this Board.
Gerrior Drive-Letter of Credit-Status
Mrs. Sears gave the Board an update on the letter of credit that expires on February 14, 2010. She noted the Board doesn’t meet again, in time, for her to begin the process of calling in that letter, if they do not renew it in time. Mr. Gylfphe noted that the Board has had to call in a letter of credit before from this same applicant, on a different project. The applicant and bank were notified that the Board would be discussing this tonight. No one representing either party was present.
MOTION by Mr. Gylfphe to have Mrs. Sears begin the process of calling in the letter of credit for Gerrior Drive project that expires on February 14, 2010, if the Board has not had a renewal from them by January 28, 2010.
SECOND by Mr. Stockus
VOTE 6-Aye. 0- Opposed 0- Abstained MOTION PASSED
Budget-Scheduling of Workshops
Discussion was on the need for a meeting night change. It was determined that a decision on that can’t be set until they know the Budget and have the new Board members. It may be that the day of the week will remain the same but the week of the month may change; ie the second and fourth Weds. nights instead of the first and third, if so, the Bylaws will need to be changed as well.
The Board decided not to have any immediate workshops. Ms. Mooney suggested an open house style workshop on February 24th with Jack Mettee on the two Zoning Ordinances proposed by this Board. There also will be a meeting/workshop for new members after the elections. The Board will also invite the general public and other boards to the open house to learn about the workforce housing proposals.
