PRE/POST-HEARING AGENDA: Minutes: Approve October 13, 2016 Minutes Mr. O'Neill moved to approve the October 13, 2016 minutes. Vote unanimous 4-0 UPDATE: Town Meeting articles - Conservation CommissionlZBA The Agent noted the Town meeting article passed without issue to incorporate language into the bylaw about the 100 foot setback notification to abutters. The other was from the Zoning Board of Appeals who wanted to limit some language about cross jurisdiction. This article didn't pass. The Agent noted the issue is we believe this places an unnecessary burden on the applicants to go to two different boards for the same thing. The Agent stated he is planning to meet with the Zoning Board of Appeals to explain it and hopefully the article will be in the May town meeting. Re uest for Administrative Approval: Joan M.
