Minutes for January 23, 1989 2 1 The Board expressed its continuing concern about attempts to legalize, after the fact, construction done without a building permit. They agreed it was their perception that this addition set a bad precedent, and if allowed, others may want to add to their apartments also. On the motion of Mrs. Klauminzer, seconded by Mrs. Wood, it was voted 4-1-0 (Mr. Williams voted in the negative) to recommend that the Board of Appeals determine this is not a minor revision, and that a public hearing should be held. The Board also agreed to make no comment on the following application: 22 Fair Oaks Drive, Bill & Lisa Lahey, SP, to add a second floor over a portion of a nonconforming dwelling with no change in site coverage. SUBDIVISION OF LAND 15. Ledgemont Subdivision, The Beal Company, Hayden Avenue: The Board reviewed a draft of a document entitled: "ATTACHMENT I CERTIFICATE OF ACTION", dated January 21, 1989. Ms. Nordby reported Town Counsel has approved the language, which is required by the Certificate of Action, as approved by the Board. On the motion of Mr. Sorensen, seconded by Mrs. Wood, it was voted 5-0-0 to amend the Certificate of Action with "ATTACHMENT I CERTIFICATE OF ACTION" dated January 21, 1989. Ms. Nordby also reported that all information required prior to endorsement of the definitive subdivision plans has been received. On the motion of Mr. Sorensen, seconded by Mrs. Wood, it was voted 5-0-0 to endorse the plans. 16. Ridge Estates III, Theodore Freeman, Jonas Stone Circle: Ms. Nordby reported that surety in the amount of $40,000 has been determined by the engineering department to be sufficient through January 23, 1990, for the completion of community facilities and the subdivision; so that surety, in the amount of $70,000 currently held by the Town, can be reduced to $40,000. If the work has not been completed by January 23, 1990, the amount of surety necessary to complete the work will have to be reevaluated. She added the engineering department has requested that the Board waive the requirement for 6 inch bounds and allow the 5 inch bounds that have been installed to remain. On the motion of Mr. Sorensen, seconded by Mrs. Klauminzer it was voted 5-0: a. to waive the requirement for 6" bounds, allowing the installed 5" bounds to remain. b. to reduce the amount of surety held by the Town to $40,000, until January 23, 1990, when the amount of surety necessary to complete any remaining work will be reevaluated. c. to release Lot 4 off Jonas Stone Circle since sufficient surety has been furnished to the Town.
