Planning board grants one-year extension for Borrego subdivision; approves fee schedule and routine items

The Planning Board granted a one‑year extension of the final subdivision vesting period for the Borrego subdivision after the applicant reported most site infrastructure—roads, electrical, communications and sewer force mains—has been installed and the remaining work (retention basins and paving) is scheduled for completion in spring. Staff located the previous approval date of 10/25/2024 and confirmed a one‑year extension would set the new vesting date to 10/25/2026. The board moved and approved the extension by voice vote.

Staff and members noted outstanding inspection documentation and agreed staff will reconfirm site inspections and bring a new engineer up to date on the project record before final sign‑off. A third‑party inspection condition related to storm‑line testing was also noted as part of the plan requirements.

The board also handled routine business. The members opened and closed a public hearing on proposed amendments to the land development and subdivision regulations after no public speakers attended that item. The board adopted a consent agenda and approved amendments to the subdivision and land development fee schedule as presented; motions and seconds were recorded and voice votes carried. The board accepted prior meeting minutes and received brief reports from the town solicitor and town planner before adjourning.
