SUBDIVISION OF LAND 41. Hamptons, off Concord Avenue, Boyd -Smith; Definitive Plan: Mr. Bowyer explained there had been some minor changes from the plan presented at the public hearing. The grading on Lots 6 and 7 was changed to satisfy the Conservation Commission and an Order of Conditions has now been issued. The sidewalk was changed from the west to the east side of Hampton Road. The Conservation Commission did not obtain a specific commitment from Boyd -Smith to provide a footpath -easement from Hampton Road back to the property of the Lexington Lodge of Elks which would connect eventually to the Town conservation land abutting the Elks property. The Conservation Commission has urged that the Planning Board require that the walking easement be provided. The Planning Board has the authority to do so under its Rules and Regulations. ' On the motion of Mr. Sorensen, seconded by Mrs. Uhrig, it was voted unanimously to approve the definitive plan entitled "The Hamptons," comprising five sheets, with the latest date December 3, 1984, with the modification that an easement - pedestrian path centered on the property line dividing Lots 4 and 5, be deline- ated on the plans. If the easement -pedestrian path is not delineated on the plans and granted to the Town, the definitive plan shall be considered to be disapproved. The Board reviewed a draft of the Certificate of Action. Several corrections were made. On the motion of Mrs. Flemings, seconded by Mr. Sorensen, it was voted unanimously to approve the Certificate of Action, as amended. Action on the special permit was deferred until the next meeting. 42.

Ridge Estates III, off East Emerson Road, Theodore Freeman: Mr. Bowyer reported that on February 6, Mr. Freeman had filed both a preliminary plan and a definitive plan for land abutting the Ridge Estates II subdivision.

It was agreed the Board would act on the definitive plan as the preliminary plan is superfluous at this point.
