AFC hears brief update on subdivision road acceptance; select board extended developer deadline
Summary
DPW told the Advisory Finance Committee that the select board has extended the developer's deadline to complete subdivision work; outstanding items include streetlight installations that must meet National Grid standards before the town will accept the roads.
Committee members briefly reviewed Article (road acceptance) and heard from DPW staff that the select board agreed to extend the developer additional time to finish required work on subdivision roads. Staff said the outstanding items are largely non‑substantive to the paved roadway but include streetlights not meeting National Grid standards; the developer is working with National Grid to bring lights into compliance before the town assumes ownership and ongoing tariff responsibilities.
Committee members agreed to receive a written update on whether the developer has met requirements (staff expected to provide an update by the Friday before town meeting) and indicated they would likely reserve final action for the floor of town meeting unless the select board reports completion in advance.
