Mr. Sorensen arrived during item 172. Mrs. Wood was absent. 170.

CUS 1986/1, 25 Bird Hill Road: Frank Compagnone has applied for a build- ing permit for the construction of a dwelling on lot 25, Bird Hill Road, which is an unaccepted street for approximately 748 feet between Swan Lane and Davis Road. Mr. Bowyer reported that about five years ago the Town constructed a new sewer in the Bird Hill Road / Davis Road area, and the street was resurfaced (not reconstructed) to replace the asphalt that was torn up for the sewer construc- tion. The street provides for the needs of vehicular traffic in relation to the proposed use of the land. It is paved to full width, approximately 24 feet. All required municipal services, water and sanitary sewer service currently exist in Bird Hill Road. On the motion of Mr. Cripps, seconded by Mrs. Klauminzer, it was voted unanimously: That Bird Hill Road, an unaccepted way, is of sufficient width, suitable grades and adequate construction to provide for the needs of yehicu:,ar traffic in relation to the proposed use, the construction of a single family home on lot 525. This opinion is limited to the construction of the street only and should not be interpreted as implying that lot #25 meets other tests of the Zoning By -Law to qualify it as a buildable lot. SUBDIVISION OF LAND 172. Mason's Hollow, Mass. Ave: Ms. Rawski reported that she and Mr. Bowyer had met with Ron Wood, landscape architect, on the site and discussed what was needed for a planting plan. They observed the site was thickly covered with decidious growth, but additional conifer planting may be required. A planting plan will be required before any building permits are issued. They also discussed house locations and sewer connection procedures. 173.
