regard to said plan. The Board also discussed the <br />problem of acquiring for the Town for recreational <br />purposes the so-called Daley tract which Mr. Busa <br />had acquired recently. It was noted that Mr. Busa <br />planned to develop said tract into 15 lots and <br />that the Board wished to recommend the acquisition <br />of land involving 9 lots or 3/5th of the area. <br />Understanding that Mr. Busa paid about $3,000 for <br />the land, did not wish to ask a price for the land <br />and wanted the Board to make him an offer, it was <br />decided that approximately $1,800 would be a fair <br />price for the portion recommended for acquisition <br />by the Town. <br />PRELIMINARY <br />SUBDIVISION <br />PLAN - BUSA <br />Mr. Busa and Mr. Joseph Moore who prepared <br />Mr. Busals an met with the Board at 8:10 p.m. and <br />were shown recommendations drawn on a print of the <br />preliminary plan, said recommendations including <br />the abandoning of existing A Street, leaving some <br />of A Street as a water and sewer easement and ex- <br />tending Albemarle Avenue. Mr. Busa said that if <br />this was to be done, he thought the Town should pay <br />part of the cost of constructing Albemarle Avenue <br />from Rawson Avenue to the intersection shown on the <br />plan. In reply it was stated that Mr. Busa and his <br />son-in-law, Mr. Antonelli, owned to the center of A <br />Street, an unaccepted way; that in order for this <br />street to be accepted it had to be constructed <br />properly, Messrs. Busa and Antonelli being assessed <br />for such betterments; that in constructing Mr. Busa's <br />proposed subdivision, drains and sewer would have to <br />be laid in A Street to connect said subdivision with <br />existing utility systems; and that it would not cost <br />any more for him to construct the recommended exten- <br />sion of Albemarle Avenue. <br />The Board suggested that questions raised about <br />size of utilities and connections with existing <br />systems be referred to the Town Engineer. In answer <br />to questions about street names and addresses, it was <br />stated that Mr. Antonelli's future address would be <br />Albemarle Avenue and that Mr. Busa might suggest <br />other street names subject to the approval by the <br />Board. <br />Mr. Busa then asked if the Board had made any <br />decision about his land the Board wanted the Town to <br />have for recreation. He said he thought it was the <br />Board's place to make him an offer. He added that he <br />did not think the site was a good one to play upon <br />and that there was left in Town very little good land <br />to build upon and which at the same time had a view <br />like this site. He said he had been interested in the <br />1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />
