A memo will be sent to Sally Hayden, Town Clerk, requesting she give the board a detail of all planning board accounts as they are trying to reconcile their accounts and it is not possible without the information being requested. It was suggested that ConCon, FinCom and other boards be cc’d on this letter.
- Attorney Cranston conversation pertaining to Blair invoices owed to Cullinan:
Chairman stated that he received a call from Attorney Cranston stating that he had
Spoken with Attorney Kiritsy in general but with no specifics. Chairman filled him in on the details and what Mr. Blair plans to offer Cullinan. Chairman also received a call from
Bill Richard of Cullinan Engineering stating that he has heard nothing from Mr. Blair.
Discussed ensued. The Board would like to see this addressed before the next town meeting. Chairman reminded the Board that they are holding the check for Central Tree Estates. Chairman and the Board do not see any reason for the delay with Mr. Blair.
Chairman received a request from Mr. James Soucy for street acceptance. Letter from Mr. Soucy was read. A letter will be sent to Mr. Soucy advising him that it is time to petition this request with the Selectmen.
The Board also received two emails from Quinn Engineering stating that the plans are in compliance and are suitable for acceptance in one yet another email stated something about some outlet from DCB-5 not being labeled for size, material, length or slope. The Board would like to see more in depth narrative reports from Quinn Engineering moving forward. Quinn Engineering is legally responsible for the roadway at Fieldstone because they are responsible for everything from the beginning to completion and acceptance.
A lot more information will be required on future subdivisions: Quinn will be asked to provide compaction reports with certification of bounds, etc., drainage system, backfill and grading. Did they walk the site? What was the date? What was the report? Reports should be put on Quinn stationery. The Board will also request a final letter on Fieldstone be put on their stationery.
Quinn will be asked to attend a Planning Board meeting or meet with Chairman and Steve to discuss this further. Discussion ensued.
