Live reporting - Legislature for action

• Resolution 08-53 – Order of Layout, Acceptance and Taking Newell Drive, Dover Circle, Cohasset Way, Sherborn Lane and Related Easements

These have been here before, and are coming back from the Planning Board as a recommendation

The street laws date from the 1800's. The subdivision control law in the mid-1900's. A different set of points, more access than travel. The legislature has not updated the process to deal with subdivision road acceptance.

Doak - why are these coming where others may have not and may have been waiting longer

Cerel - Toll Brothers have working this diligently and cooperatively with the Town to get this done.

Doak - if the developer doesn't plan this properly, then it puts the burden on the town?

Ceral - if the developers haven't planned properly, the home owners technically own to the middle of the road, contacting them these days is tedious is possible
