Planning board accepts Compass Point boundary survey as sufficient and grants 90‑day extension for outstanding work
Shannon, planning staff, presented plan revisions for Compass Point Subdivision, saying the submitted plans adjust a deck on Unit F S2 to meet the 30‑foot building separation requirement and that an illegal parking space that had been removed previously had reappeared near Unit 14. She said staff recommended the remediation of dangerous handicap spaces and use of any available performance guarantee funds to complete remaining corrections, including a finished pavement course and retaining‑wall review.

Board and applicant representatives discussed options to prevent the parking space from returning after removal; staff suggested showing a preventative barrier (post and rail fence or boulders) on the revised plan. After discussion the board made a formal motion to determine that the 2012 boundary survey remains sufficient for the property and voted unanimously to accept that determination. The board then moved and voted unanimously to grant a 90‑day extension so the applicant can complete the listed corrections and demonstrate compliance before further permits are issued.

Shannon and board members stressed that building permits for the project could be held or conditioned until the corrective work is complete; the town could use performance‑guarantee funds to perform necessary fixes if required.
