K3 -The Concept Plan was approved by the Planning Board (by a 7 to 4 vote to approve) December 3, 1997, with three conditions: 1. Access to all lots shall be limited to the new subdivision road; 2. On the Preliminary Plan, include a 40 -foot buffer along Moorefields Road as part of the open space protected by restrictive covenants or a conservation easement. Provide additional landscaping for screening on lot 27 between the building site and roads; and 3. With the Preliminary Plan, submit draft forms of the homeowners association documents and restrictive covenants or conservation easement which contain use and maintenance provisions for the common open space and buffers. The restrictive covenants or conservation shall designate a back -up grantee, in the event the homeowners association is eliminated. In addition, the Planning Board requested that a second Neighborhood Information Meeting be conducted once the plan was approved by the Health Department. Such a meeting was held on September 28, 1998. A summary of that meeting is included as an attachment to this document. Discussion included street lights, enforcement of private covenants versus enforcement of zoning and subdivision regulations, and issues regarding entrance from Moorefields Road versus entrance from- Dimmocks Mill Road.
