PLANNING BOARD MINUTES MEETING OF MAY 7, 2014 A regular meeting of the Lexington Planning Board, held in the Selectmen’s Meeting Room, was called to order at 7:00 p.m. by Chairman Charles Hornig, with members Nancy Corcoran- Ronchetti, Richard Canale, Greg Zurlo, and Timothy Dunn and planning staff Maryann McCall- Taylor, Aaron Henry, and Lori Kaufman present. **********************DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION*********************** Edna Street extension, definitive subdivision plan: Mr. Hornig called the continued public hearing to order at 7:03 p.m. There were 5 people in the audience. Mr. David Burns of Debco Properties, the applicant, was present and explained that in response to some concerns expressed at the last meeting, an option of not having a through street from Homestead Street to Emerald Street was being considered. Mr. Burns had met with the Fire, Engineering and Planning staff and discussed a plan for a dead end street with a turnaround for fire trucks. There was concern that the existing street was not in the center of the right of way (ROW) and the applicant would try to correct it. Other issues regarding a fire hydrant and a looped water main through the project was discussed and an arrangement would be made with the Town. There was positive feedback from the Board about the street not going through; this plan was going in the right direction. Mr. Burns said he could have the revised plans ready in two weeks for the meeting May 28. On a motion duly made and seconded, it was voted, 5-0, to continue the public hearing to May 28 at 7:00 p.m. in the Selectmen’s Meeting Room. 138 Laconia Street, ANR: The applicant had requested a 14-day continuance and extension of the action deadline. This would push the matter to the meeting on May 21, 2014, and the action dead line to May 23, 2014. On a motion duly made and seconded, it was voted, 5-0, to accept the applicants request to extend the action deadline to May 23, 2014, to allow attorneys additional time to review the ANR.
