In a recent government meeting, the planning board addressed two significant matters concerning local property developments. The first discussion revolved around the approval of an amendment to the condominium declaration for the Colonial Arms Condominium, specifically regarding Unit 9 and 10. The unit's owner, represented by Randy Walker, sought to rectify an oversight from 2015 when an expansion of the unit by 60 square feet was completed without an updated as-built plan. The board unanimously supported the amendment, which included a release of the town from any maintenance responsibilities, allowing the unit owners to manage upkeep independently.
The board's vote concluded with six members in favor and one abstention, as one member indicated they would be involved in future discussions regarding the matter. The approval was characterized as a necessary housekeeping measure to align the condominium's documentation with the current state of the property.
The second item on the agenda involved a site plan review for Unit 1 of the Kingswood Townhome Condominium. Attorney Sabrina Evans presented a revised plan that addressed previous concerns raised by the board. The proposed changes would allow Unit 1 to expand its footprint into existing storage areas, increasing its total square footage while ensuring that all unit owners were in agreement with the modifications. The board expressed satisfaction with the clarity of the revised plans and the thoroughness of the amendments.
Both discussions highlighted the board's commitment to ensuring compliance with local regulations while facilitating property improvements that reflect the interests of the community. The meeting concluded with a sense of progress as the board moved forward with the approvals, emphasizing the importance of maintaining accurate records and fostering cooperative relationships among property owners.
