Mrs. Maher expressed concern for the safety of the pond and recommended a playground instead. Mr. Milot said the interior roads would be 24 ft., private roads. They would prefer no curbs or sidewalks. Ms. Peacock said she was not sure she liked private roads for so many units. Mr. Craig also felt the number of units was a concern. Mr. Milot said they would consider looping the road and would not allow parking on the road. Mr. Craig felt that looping was a must. Mr. Weith agreed and didn't feel a private road was a concern. Ms. Pugh agreed with Ms. Peacock. Mrs. Maher would go for a private road if it were looped. Mr. Weith noted the possibility of a connector from Laurel Hill to the potential Southern Connector. David White of Pomerleau felt there should be right of way on the property line between the Milot and Pomerleau properties. Mr. Milot suggested putting it in the buffer parallel to the private road and that the buffer be deeded to the City. Mr. Jacob then asked about density. Mr. Weith said the regulations are not clear on density with mixed residential and commercial uses. The regs say 7 per acre for the residential, but the commercial is calculated by lot cov- erage. Mr. Milot asked if it would be OK to take the total site and apply the R-7 coverage and commercial coverage and don't exceed that. Mr. Craig noted that would be using the open space to calculate lot coverage for the commercial. Mrs. Maher asked Mr. Weith to find out how density on the Deslauriers Dorset St. property was calculated. Mr. Weith noted that he will also need to know exactly which property is involved. Mr. Milot will provide this information. Ms. Pugh asked that Natural Resources look at this plan as well. 3.

He also wanted to see the area remain single family or duplex housing, not multi -units. Mr. Earley noted they have paid taxes for 20 years based on the old property line, and if the new marker is right, they have been overtaxed. Mr. Jacob noted the road is incorrectly marked as 22 ft. Mr. D'Elia said it should be 24 ft. and will be so changed. Mr. Szymanski has asked for a temporary construction easement on lot #17. Mr. D'Elia said this will be provided. A poll of memr--s showed that a majority wanted the Patchen Rd. sidewalk fee to d-nolude Lot 18, even though the de- veloper is not retaining this lot.
