Mr. Zurlo joined <br />the meeting after just a few minutes. <br /> <br />**************************TOWN MEETING***************************** <br />Article 45- The discussion focused on the principles that were being added to the bylaw. <br />Mr. Canale said that the Transportation Mitigation Group had discussed the article. They <br />weren’t concerned with the particular wording as much as wanting to see the principles <br />outlined. The Board felt comfortable with the three general principles, but didn’t feel they <br />were ready to endorse the sub-principles from Mr. Canale’s document. Mr. Zurlo felt the <br />sub-principles required further explanation. <br /> <br />Article 44 – Mr. Canale mentioned a discussion of site plan approval versus site plan <br />review that had been on the planners’ listserve recently. He said he would review the <br />bylaw with that in mind. The Board wanted to add a condition that the site plan approval <br />be submitted with the plans for the building permit.
