` Meeting of the Board of Survey opened at 8:00 P.M. in
Room 16, Municipal Building.
Present were Chairman Florence, Secretary Leonard,
Board Members Hodson, Watt and Brown and Superintendent Welch.
Read note from the Superintendent suggesting the en-
dorsement of the Board of Survey Plan on Blueberry (Private )
Lane which runs from Franklin Street in a Southeasterly and
Northeasterly direction to Franklin Street.
Mr. Watt moved that the Board endorse the Board of
Survey Plan on Blueberry (Private) Lane, Mr. Brown seconded and
it was voted.
Public Hearing was held regarding the acceptance of
lines and grades of Larch Lane which runs from Franklin Street
near Grove Street in a Southeasterly direction, a distance of
504.03 feet more or less to Larch (Private ) Lane.
Five persons attended the meeting. Mr. and Mrs.
Pelosi, 566 Franklin Street, questioned the finished grade of
Larch Lane. Mr. Welch advised Mr. Pelosi that the grade would
be checked.
Mr. McSheehy requested that the streets be of gravel
and oil with Bituminous Concrete sidewalks. Mr. Watt moved that
action on Larch Lane be tabled for one week, Mr. Hodson seconded
and it was voted.
Mr. Carl Amon conferred with the Board and discussed the
problems of financing for the so-called Pallotta Development. He
6 explained that deeds of land cannot be recorded until after en-
r
• dorsad Board of Survey Plan is filed. Unless deeds are recorded,
Pallotta cannot obtain mortgage from bank and hence cannot pro-
ceed to do the work required by the Board of Survey.
Mr. Amon suggested that the plan be endorsed and re-
corded with a covenant that no part of the land could be sold
until released by the Board of Survey. An extended, detailed
discussion followed.
It was suggested that any covenant, if approved, would
be only for Sunnyside Avenue and abutting lots plus the sewer
easement from Sunnyside Avenue to Park Avenue.
No particular agreement was made but Mr. Amon agreed to dis-
cuss the matter with Mr. Nigro and urge him
to submit a separate plan covering the area described in the
immediately preceding paragraph. The Board will then consider
• endorsing such a plan with a covenant that the land involved
cannot be sold either in part or in whole except after specific
release by the Board of Survey.
Meeting adjourned at 10: 10 P M.
Respectfully submitted,
Secretary
