Planning Board Subcommittee Meeting

Subcommittee weighs stormwater utility and septic inspections

The Planning Board Subcommittee discussed creating a stormwater utility to shift costs to properties with more impervious surfaces, and a wastewater management district to inspect septic systems near the bay. No decisions were made; members agreed to research costs and revisit after the election. The meeting was largely exploratory.

Stormwater utility would bill based on impervious surface area, affecting commercial and residential lots
Utility administration would require adding a staff member
Septic inspections needed to prevent closure of Third Beach
Hiring an inspector could cost $100k annually
Research on revenue and average bills to be completed before presenting to Town Council

Special Meeting

Town Council considers West Main Road zoning change for hotel development

The Town Council is holding a special meeting to consider three related ordinances that would rezone parcels on West Main Road (Lots 4-7 on TAP 102) from Public/Institutional to Limited Business and create a West Main-Coddington Overlay District. The changes would allow a hotel development on the site of the former Navy Lodge. The public hearing, which drew significant opposition from residents citing traffic and loss of green space, has been closed and the Council is now set to vote.

Second reading of ordinance to amend Comprehensive Community Plan Map L-4 to change future land use from Institutional to Limited & Office Business for Lots 4-7 on West Main Road
Second reading of ordinance to rezone Lots 4-7 on TAP 102 from Public to LBA (Limited Business, traffic sensitive)
Second reading of ordinance to create new Article 31 West Main-Coddington Overlay District with use and dimensional regulations for Lots 3-7 on TAP 102
Public hearing featured extensive testimony from residents opposed to the project, citing traffic concerns and a petition with 2,000 signatures
Attorney Girard Galvin representing MCTC, LLC presented the proposal, noting only the former Navy Lodge lot would be leased
