11 1 4-7-58 -3- The matter of sidewalks in the subdivision SIDEWALKS was also reviewed, it being noted that the Board had not required the construction of sidewalks in the first section of the Loring Hill development. It was noted also that the estimated cost of the re- quired work to be done in the second section of said development had not included the construction of sidewalks. It was decided torrequire the construc- tion of sidewalks on one side of the streets in the second section but that the Board would not ask the Superintendent of Public Works to revise the estimate to include cost of said walks for the reason that the subdivider had filed with the Board a bond based on the cost of said estimate. The Board discussed further the location and construction of sidewalks in all subdivisions as set forth under Sec. V.B.9 of the Subdivision Rules and Regulations. In order to facilitate the admin- istration of this particular paragraph of said regu- lations) Mr. Snow was requested to discuss with the Superintendent of Public Works the development of a procedure wherein the location of sidewalks would be shown on definitive subdivision plans and the cost of said walks included in the acceptance of estimates of the cost of performing the various items of re- quired work in the subdivisions. Mr. Snow reported that during the previous week a definitive plan for the subdivision of the Sandy Brook Corp. land northeasterly of Lowell Street and southeasterly of East Street had been filed with an application for approval of said plan. He stated that he had not signed the application as deemed to have been submitted after noting that the plan appeared to be incomplete. It was decided that the way located between lots 47 and 48 shown on the plan was to be constructed to the south- easterly property line of the corporation's land, that such utilities as the Superintendent of Public Works wished to recommend be provided in said way, and that said Superintendent be notified of the Board's decision. The Board next reviewed Mr. Snow's preliminary studies for the Massachusetts Avenue crossing of Emerson Road, particularly with regard to obtain- ing an option for acquisition of part of the Millyan land for the location of said Emerson Road. It was decided that Messrs. Grindle and Snow should discuss with the Selectmen the proposed road location since the Millyan residence was within the proposed right - OAR HILL ESTATES SE3. 1 MILLYAN OPTION
