Work Force Housing Guidance Document-Review with Jack Mettee, Mette Planning Consultants
Mr. Mettee reviewed what the Workforce Housing (WFH) Subcommittee had decided last fall and the 2 proposed articles for workforce housing that passed in March. He noted that the Workforce Guidance document was planned to provide the developer and the Planning Board assistance for any proposed WFH projects. He noted that the second document the Board will need to review, at a later workshop, is a sample WFH covenant.
The Board and Mr. Mettee proceeded to review the wording and content of the Guidance document in detail.
Workforce Housing sample Covenant
Mr. Mettee explained that this was another sample document to go with the Guidance Document. He noted it was lengthy and the Board would need to review on their own and review together at a workshop possibly scheduled for June 16th or July 14th.
If the Board can’t meet until July, Mr. Mettee suggested they work on the Open Space Development Subdivision Regulations at the same time. The Board agreed. Mr. Mette thanked the Board.

Jack Mettee, Mettee Planning Consultants- Master Plan Contract
Chair Stockus noted that Mrs. Sears had been contacted by Mr. Brown about whether the Board had authority or not to sign this contract. Chair Stockus stated that the Board does have the authority to hire per the RSAs. Chair Stockus noted it seems to have been the practice on the last contract and recent history.
