The Chairman suggested they move the access road closer to the Stevens property line, in the event something does go into that property they will have highway access.
The Chairman pointed out that the applicant has the construction staging area abutting the Stevens property line, and asked Mr. Russo if that could be moved. Mr. Russo agreed to move it.
Scott Chatfield suggested that the Town might talk to the Stevens family and inform them that the property will be unmarketable if it remains the same.
