MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING OF THE VIENNA

PLANNING BOARD HELD DECEMBER 28, 2022

The meeting convened at the Town House at 7:00 PM; regular members present were Waine Whittier, Ed Lawless, Creston Gaither, and Tim Bickford. LoryZamboni was also present. Minutes of the November 23 meeting were read and accepted.

The Board reviewed attorney Paul Mills’ email of December 2 regarding the dividing of the Kohtala Trust land and arguing that the proposal would not be exempt from municipal subdivision review because the parcels would be “exchanges” rather than gifts, even though no money will change hands, and because the grantors have not held the land for at least 5 years as required by Title 30-A § 4401. The Board then determined that review will be required.

Creston will email Lory a copy of the Town Subdivision Ordinance.

The Board reviewed the Subdivision Ordinance Section 4D and agreed to waive the requirement for a location map.

Lory says no new sewers or culverts or roads are planned.

The Board also waived the requirement for contour lines and that for cross-sections, which is evidently not applicable. Page 4 was reviewed and Lory was advised that a written application will be required.

The meeting adjourned at 7:45 PM.

Creston Gaither, secretary
