back equipment out. It was likewise noted that the drain through the land was not covered at any point. ' It was decided that in the approval of any subdivision of the land under discussion the Board would require Mr. Silva to cover the ditch and extend Sunny Knoll Terrace all the way to Garfield Street. Mr. Silva came to the meeting at 9:30 p.m. at which time the Chairman explained to him the decision of the Board, suggested that he make some arrangement with Mr. Watson in regard to the cost of the road adjoining the latterts property and that he have his engineer work out a solution for the location and covering of the drain. Mr. Silva stated that he had already con- structed 305 feet of road for other people, did not wish to construct any more for the benefit of others, did not believe he could make any satisfactory arrange- ment with Mr. Watson, had dug the ditch in question himself and could fill it up again. He also objected to constructing Sunny Knoll Terrace through to Gar- field Street. It was suggested to Mr.Silva that he might ex- tend the terrace a very little way, construct a per- manent turn -around, and in so doing create only three ' lots instead of four, combining the fourth proposed lot into the other three. When Mr. Silva said he did not wish to do this, he was informed that the choice of the two solutions the Board would approve was up to him.
