Planning commission requests Lot 2 road profile in preliminary review for 4478 Howe Hill Rd.
Summary
At a continued Development Review Board session, the Sharon Planning Commission said a road profile for Lot 2 is required to show slopes meet the town Subdivision Regulations; the applicant was told to supply the profile and staff will schedule a site visit.
The Sharon Planning Commission’s Development Review Board continued preliminary plan review for the property at 4478 Howe Hill Rd. and told the applicant that a road profile for Lot 2 must be submitted before the next review. Chair John Roe opened the DRB session at 7:09 PM; the parcel’s steep terrain prompted commissioners to require the profile to demonstrate compliance with the town’s Subdivision Regulations.
The application was presented by representative Joe Honkala using materials produced by surveyor Rob Townsend that showed proposed house sites, septic locations and a connecting road/drive. Board members noted that materials included a road profile for Lot 1 (reviewed at the March 17 meeting) but lacked a Lot 2 profile; without it, the DRB could not verify whether the slope is within the regulation’s standards. Joe Honkala acknowledged the requirement and discussed options and timing for the next preliminary review and a site visit. Planning Administrator Alexandra Babicki was tasked with following up with Rob Townsend and the applicant on the outstanding materials.
