Board accepts $5,000 applicant escrow and hires LaBerge for complex site-plan review
Summary
The planning board will retain engineer LaBerge to review a complicated site plan at the applicant's expense; the applicant deposited $5,000 to be placed in escrow to cover review costs and the board increased planning fee and contractual lines by $5,000 accordingly.
Chair announced that a planning-board site-plan review was unusually complex and that the village would retain LaBerge to perform the review at the applicant's expense. The applicant provided a $5,000 check that the board will deposit into escrow and use to pay LaBerge's review work; Chair moved to increase budget line A2115 (planning board fees) and A8020.4 (planning board contractual) by $5,000 each to reflect receipt and use of the escrow funds.
Board members confirmed that any unused portion of the escrow will be returned to the applicant. The motion to accept the deposit and adjust budget line items carried by voice vote; Chair noted the village will draw from the escrow to pay invoices from LaBerge as work is completed.
