I 2. Form A (ANR) Plans
Gilbert Street Electrical Substation
Mr. Burke explained the plan shows the relocation of access easements and changes the
lot lines of Lots 1 and 2. The lots do not have sufficient frontage and are not buildable.
The plan breaks the land into parcels to be retained by New England Power and to be
bought by the town for the substation, equipment and easements. The easements are
being relocated to provide better access. The lot lines are changing because a portion of
the substation was built on New England Power's land. Mr. Burke recommended the
board endorse the plan.
Motion: To endorse the Form A (Jodice-Cleary) All in favor. PASSES
