PRELIMINARY DISCUSSION:
Mrs. Janet Ward appeared before the Board with a rough preliminary plan of a
subdivision of her property on Essex Street, near Great Pond Road. The discussion
of the subdivision of her property was quite lengthy. She would like to co~mect the
roadway to Woodcrest Drive of an adjo4~-g subdivision. There is quite a slope to
the roadway which would also have to be worked out. She should try to get access as
to the Simpson land in order to join the roadways and also more complete information
and more definitive plans sand return to discuss it with a /~,ll board.
BEN OSGOOD: Raleigh Tavern Estates Subdivision.
Ben Osgood appeared before the Board to discuss the requirements of Raleigh
Tavern Lane. Letters were received from the Highway Dept and Board of Public Works.
The Board of Public Works gave an estimated cost for the extension of the water main
~on Carlton Lane off Raleigh Tavern Lane as had been requested by Mr. Osgood.
The letter from the Highway Surveyor reported on inspections he had made on Raleigh
Tavern Estates and noted several conditions that should be corrected by Mr. Osgood.
Mr. Osgood said he is tryin__g to comply with the requirements of the Playtime Board
but he doesn't like being yelled at by the Highway Surveyor. He said he had not
received a copy of the Highway Surveyor's letter and upon reading the letter he
expl~1~ed the conditions and he says that everything is being done ~11 right. The
Board felt they would like to make a personal inspection with Mr. Nicetta and Mr.
Osgood at a time that would be convenient for all.
Mr. Osgood wants to reduce the $20,000 now being held to $10,000. He has 1n_~talled
700 feet of l 1-e and 7 catch basins. They have laid 900 feet of road and want to
place a new amount for 300 feet of what the Highway Surveyor says has to be done on
carlton Way. He says that within the next month he will have the entire roadway done.
The Board felt that Mr. Nicetta should probably have stated an amount of how much
would be required to make corrections.
