  1. Gerry Rosenberg came in to discuss the revised construction materials section of the master plan.  Rosenberg stated that the amount of acreage is probably exaggerated and does not take into account land use.  Rosenberg suggested that a paragraph be added stating that use has already been determined.  The Board discussed soil types and the total number of land acres in the town.  Kullgren stated he would call Eric Twarog at  SWRPC to discuss how the total number of acres may be determined.

 

  1. The Board reviewed the revised housing and population section of the master plan.  Connie Kieley expressed concern about the graphs and charts being omitted from the revised version.  The Board explained that table #11 – Population Projection was not removed, it has been moved to phase 2 the comprehensive plan.  The Board also explained that the removal of some items was due to inaccuracy.  Kieley asked if it might be possible to add a graph to track the effect of valuation on the town and school tax rates.  There was discussion on this proposal, no action taken.

 

  1. Move by Fiske to adjourn, second by Pickman, meeting adjourned at 10:10 p.m.
