Mr. Bud O'Malley from the Abreen Company and David Grant of Norwood Engineering Company appeared before the :Board to discuss the site plan for the Sheraton Motor Inn to be constructed in the CC&F Park. Mr. O'Malley explained the parking is 43 ft. from the street with a treed buffer. The plan showed the drainage pipe and how it ties into an existing ditch; the water and sewer ties into Hampshire Street; a trash compactor is shown installed in a walled in court. Mr. O'Malley noted the building will be three stories in sections and there is a court yard. Landscaping plans were shown.They will leave as many existing trees as possible. The signs will be in keeping with the signs in the park. Mr. Grant noted there are 490 parking spaces shown on the plan and the By-law only requires 465.

Motion: To endorse the Approval Not Required plan for 2 lots on Basin Street.

The signed covenant with dates on it was also presented to the Board. Mr. Chavaree showed the Board a 10 ft. right of way across Lot #7 for the Town to maintain the cemetery. Mr. Chavaree stated he had talked with his attorney concerning the easement and had told him that he didn't think it pertained to the subdivision as there is a right to pass and repass on the 20 ft. strip and he doesn't think it is proper to give an easement over someone's land until the Town resolves the question of ownership of the cemetery. Mr. Chavaree said he would be willing to give a right -of way for the Town to maintain it. Chairman Parsons returned to the meeting at this time. Motion: It is the consensus of the Board with regard to the easement shown across Lot #7 that if at some time in the future it is found that it is not necessary for the Town to use the ten foot strip to maintain the Leonard cemetery the land shall revert back to the owner of the property at that time.
