Uxbridge Planning Board continues two public hearings, accepts minutes and adjourns; road acceptance issues flagged
Summary
The Town of Uxbridge Planning Board continued multiple public hearings to the board’s May 14 meeting, accepted April 9 minutes and adjourned. Members also raised outstanding street-acceptance and paving concerns related to recent subdivisions and asked staff to follow up with applicants and the board of selectmen.
The Town of Uxbridge Planning Board handled a series of procedural items at its April meeting, moving several matters to the board’s next session on May 14 and flagging outstanding infrastructure issues for follow-up.
Early in the meeting the board granted an applicant’s request to continue the public hearing for 24 Trask to the May 14 meeting at 6 p.m.; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The board later entered a similar continuation to May 14 for the 374 Hazel Street special-permit hearing (covered in a separate article).
Jeff Stefanik, a surveyor for a proposed A&R plan tied to Crown Shield Avenue and related parcels, presented plans but the board found inconsistencies between the application and the plan sheet numbering (application references Lot 37 while the map and parcel labels showed Lots 35, 36 and a non-buildable parcel 3B). Stefanik and board members agreed to continue the A&R discussion to the May 14 meeting and to provide a clearer set of plans and application materials (the board asked for a red/blue overlay showing existing parcel lines and proposed subdivision lines, plus any relevant as-built drawings).
During the minutes-review portion, the board accepted the minutes of the April 9 meeting as presented. The board then discussed street-acceptance and infrastructure items raised by recent subdivision work. Members noted that Tea Party (street) still lacks a certificate of compliance for road work and that a separate patch on Tabor Road had not been infrared‑reworked as the developer had reportedly told the selectmen. The board asked staff to obtain up‑to‑date documentation from the developer and to request photos and invoices showing work performed. The board chair said he will attend the upcoming selectmen’s meeting to raise the matter.
At the close of the meeting the Planning Board voted to adjourn. The board’s next regular meeting is scheduled for May 14 at 6 p.m.
