OLD BUSINESS:

 

PB-04-17 – Wyman – 3125 Kittering Road – Three-lot realty subdivision & residential site plans – Preliminary & final – Don Lewis of AEY Engineering addressed the Board.  He explained that currently there were no drainage ditches along Furman Road, but piping would be installed under the driveways for the proposed lots.  Drainage goes to the west along Furman Road and then south under the road.  Further discussion regarding this was postponed until the next meeting to allow time for the Town Engineer and Highway Superintendent to visit the site.  Other aspects of the plans such as perc tests, septic design, sight distances, etc., were acceptable.
