Scott A. Frank; Thomas P. McShane; and Kenneth H. Torman. Alscj prest nt wasl Sth� n
P. Burke, Director of Planning and Development.
Mr. Dolan called the meeting to order at 7:45 p.m., explaining that the sole purpose of the
meeting was a workshop session devoted to amendments to Subdivision Regulations and
the Zoning By -law.
Subdivision fees were reviewed, with Mr. Frank asking if a sliding fee scale could be
created, with the fee increase based on the number of lots in a subdivision. Mr. Burke
noted the fee is based on administrative time and inspections, with the number of lots not
being a factor. Size of the subdivision is accommodated for in the charge per foot of
roadway, so larger developers pay more. Mr. Burke also noted he would like to be able to
show the increase in fees based on overhead to help sell the fee hike, but the information is
not available. In general, overhead is figured on 110% of salaries.
The consensus of those present was to include the fee increases in the advertisement for
the public hearing, to be scheduled for March 18, 1998.
The board spent the remainder of the meeting reviewing the Subdivision Regulatons and
making amendments to the Subdivision Regulations and the Zoning By -law as detailed on
Attachment A.
Adjournment: Motion to adjourn at 11:05 p.m.
