PLANNING BOARD MINUTES MEETING OF FEBRUARY 2, 1987 The meeting of the Lexington Planning Board held in Room G-15, Town Office Build- ing, was called to order at 7:32 p.m. by the Chairman, Mrs. Uhrig, with members Cripps, Klauminzer, Sorensen, Wood, Planning Director Bowyer, and Assistant Planner Rawski present. ********************* ADMINISTRATION OF LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS ************* PLANS NOT REQUIRING APPROVAL UNDER THE SUBDIVISION CONTROL LAW 36. Land at 12-18 Hartwell Avenue: Mr. Bowyer explained that MICO Realty had submitted a plan which showed no change in lot lines. Apparently they are attempt- ing to secure the three year freeze from a change in use if a Form A is approved prior to a zoning amendment. He suggested that the Board not endorse the plan that has the same language as an "Approval Not Required Plan" under Chapter 41, Section 81P but indicate it would sign the plan under the provisions of Section 81-X which deals with the confirmation of existing lot lines. Mr. Sorensen pointed out Sec- tion 81-P says that endorsement cannot be withheld. It was agreed to seek the advice of Town Counsel. 37. Form A/86-16, Lowell Street: Mr. Bowyer pointed out that in the previous meeting, a brief motion to rescind its earlier endorsement of this plan was voted. ' In this case, a more detailed motion explaining more fully the action of the Board appeared advisable. On the motion of Mrs. Wood, seconded by Mrs. Klauminzer, it was voted 3-2, with Mr. Cripps and Mr. Sorensen in the negative: That the action of the Planning Board taken on Ausust 4, 1986 to endorse the plan entitled "Birchknoll Terrace" dated 7/24/86 prepared by Bethel, Duncan & Associates, Inc, Burlington, Mass., certified by David A. Duncan, professional engineer, is hereby rescinded because the plan that was filed in the Middlesex South Registry of Deeds is not the same plan that the Planning Board endorsed because changes were made in'that plan after it left the custody of the Board and without the Board's knowledge or consent. SUBDIVISION OF LAND 38. Busa Farms, Preliminary Plan: The Board reviewed a draft of a favorable decision on the application for a preliminary plan. Ms. Rawski suggested a change to show that the plan submitted met the requirements of the Mass. Subdivision Control Law only and did not comply with the Development Regulations. Mr. Sorensen suggested that the Planning Board require that the right-of-way be extended to the property line so that it can be extended later. Mrs. Klauminzer suggested that the Board require that the definitive plan be submitted in compliance with the Develop- ment Regulations. On the motion of Mr. Sorensen, seconded by Mrs. Klauminzer, it was voted unanimously to approve the preliminary plan for the Busa Farms subdivison with the amendments to the decision and with the addition of a fourth condition requiring compliance with the submission requirements of the Development Regulations.
