At 6:00 pm, Linda Moore opens the work session and appointed Angela Cleveland for Kevin Roy.
Michelle Moren-Gray joined by Zoom to review the Master Plan update proposal she submitted on behalf of North Country Council.
The proposal was based on the current Master Plan and included the survey process, community outreach events, and updating all the data.
Conversations ensued regarding the RFP process, the survey and community events, and the Town’s procurement policy. The Planning Board will discuss this further at its next meeting.
The board reviewed the minutes from 8/28/2024. Alecia Loveless motioned to approve the minutes as written. Jerry seconded the motion; a unanimous vote followed.
The Board discussed the Jackson/Holmes LLA from the previous meeting. It was determined an error had been made and the application should have gone before the ZBA for a variance for the minimum lot size before coming to the Planning Board. Legal advice from NHMA stated that Planning Board decision could stand as long as no one came forward to appeal the decision within 30 days. The clerk will hold off on submitting the plans to Grafton County Registry of Deeds until after 9/27.
Sean Gawlik motioned to adjourn, Alecia seconded, all in favor.
Respectfully submitted by,
Dawn Ferringo,
Planning and Zoning Clerk
