Developer outlines Begley Road plan for owner’s house, lodge and up to 10–15 small tourist cabins
Summary
Presenters representing buyer Michael Hulskotter described plans for a primary owner house, lodge, bathhouse and 10–15 small cabins/yurts at a Begley Road lake property; they raised an issue about an irregular/abandoned road that may be town-owned and said the buyer would build and maintain that section if necessary.
At the Oct. 8 meeting the Planning Board heard a presentation from Chuck Pafundi and engineer Jason Dell on behalf of purchaser Michael Hulskotter, who is seeking to buy property on Begley Road and develop it as a tandem recreation/agritourism site tied to 'World's End.' The presenters described a plan that would include a separate owner house, a lodge with a large kitchen, a separate bathhouse and 10–15 small cabins or yurts, each approximately 150–200 square feet.
The presentation included siting details: cabins would be about 50–100 feet from a central bathhouse with a 200-foot maximum mentioned, and the presenters discussed lot requirements under the subdivision code as part of the review. They also raised an irregular or abandoned road on the site boundary and said that if that road is town property, the purchaser would build and maintain that section and the town would not maintain it going forward. The presenters said the initial buildable home lot would be owned by Hulskotter personally, with future consolidated development likely held by an LLC.
No formal application, permit approvals or vote were recorded during this meeting. The board received the presentation as an informational item; the transcript does not record board direction to staff or a vote on the proposal.
