Planning board approves minor modification to Golfers Way subdivision with waiver condition
Summary
The board conditionally approved a modification to move the roadway in the Golfers Way subdivision (44 Clear Pond Road), requiring the applicant to resubmit a cover sheet listing the requested waiver before the board will sign final plans.
The Planning Board voted Aug. 14 to approve a requested modification to the previously approved Golfers Way definitive subdivision (44 Clear Pond Road) subject to a condition that the applicant provide an updated cover sheet listing the waiver request.
Applicant representatives presented revised sheets showing the relocated roadway and a reduced cul‑de‑sac radius. Peer review determined the proposed change to the cul‑de‑sac width was acceptable for fire apparatus provided the waiver is documented on the plan cover. The board and peer reviewer confirmed the revised inside radius and a 20‑foot roadway width on the submitted sheets matched the intended change; town counsel asked for an explicitly updated cover/title sheet listing the waiver to ensure public record clarity.
A resident who received abutter notice attended and asked clarifying questions about access, existing speed bumps on Golfers Way and whether the road would remain private or be built to town standards. Board members confirmed the plan will be built to town roadway standards, the existing speed bumps will be removed and that there is no new takings of private property associated with the modification.
The board approved the modification with the condition that the applicant resubmit the cover sheet showing the waiver language before the board signs and stamps the final plans. The motion passed unanimously.
