Board seeks fire-department signoff on access plan for Eckleson parcels
Summary
At a planning-board meeting, members reviewed a parcel map for Mr. Eckleson's family-owned lots and directed the applicant to secure fire-department approval and update road-widths on revised plans.
The Lumberland Planning Board reviewed a descending parcel map of Mr. Eckleson's properties and asked the applicant to provide updated plans showing wider road sections and a turnaround that meets emergency-access standards. Board members emphasized that the driveway in question is established but must be verified for legal access and emergency-vehicle operation.
John Will, who identified himself as representing the subdivision applicant, said the parcels are family-owned and that one piece is being conveyed to provide right-of-way access. “We have access,” Will said, adding that he could supply more detailed 2-foot contours at a later date. A board member said the fire department will need to inspect the site to confirm that trucks can make the required right-hand turn and use the turnaround shown on the map.
