Resident developer Dana Mills invited to informally present possible gravel-pit plan in Rock Village area
Summary
Dana Mills contacted the board about a possible gravel pit or small development on a 30-acre parcel near Rock Village; the board invited him to present informally so members can review constraints and options.
Planning board members said developer Dana Mills contacted them about possible development on a roughly 30-acre parcel near Rock Village and that they invited him to an informational planning-board meeting to discuss options.
A board member described the property location—near the former farmhouse and a former driving-range site—and said the land has deep slopes and development constraints. The member said Mills “still owns it” and is considering a small-scale plan of “3 or 4 houses” rather than a large subdivision. The member also said Mills paid a substantial mitigation amount in the past when earlier larger development was proposed; the transcript reports a mitigation payment of "$3,060,000" related to prior work on roads.
Board members said Mills would be asked to come to a planning-board informational session “before you make any plans” so members can identify issues and constraints. No formal application, vote, or staff report on the property was presented at the meeting.
