Motion: WHEREAS, the applicant, having failed to comply with the rules
and regulations of the Mansfield Planning Board, and
WHEREAS, the applicant, also having failed to comply with the
rules of the Mansfield Board of Health, and
WHEREAS, the applicant, having failed to furnish the Mansfield
Planning Board with sufficient information concerning the proposed
use of the land that would enable the Planning Board to render
a proper decision in accordance with the purposes and provisions
of Chapter 41 Section 81M of the Massachusetts General Laws,
Let it therefore be know that the Mansfield Planning Board, at

4. Town Planner Maurer advised the Board of a letter to the Planning Board
concerning the Magna Vista work that was done on the paving by Simione
last Spring. They have been trying to receive compensation for that
work and Mr. D'Annolfo won't pay them until two minor points are taken
care of. This is not work that was done under the bond but on the road
when it was in covenant. Simione would like the Board to send a letter
to D'Annolfo acknowledging this so that he can get his money. It was
suggested that Simione Make out a check to the Town to cover the work
that has to be done.
Motion: That the Board approve the above method subject to approval of
Town Counsel. (Mendes -Latham, all in favor)

Committee members from Mansfield be sent to that Committee.
Motion: That we send a letter to the Selectmen requesting an up -dated
list. (Latham -Mendes, all in favor)
6. Planner Mendes advised the Board that the Region had started a project to
have the entire district flown with infra -red camera. For some reason
the whole district was not completed but Mansfield was among those that
were. He suggested that it would be worthwhile to buy a set of prints
and will notify the Region that we wish to do so.
