Mr. Collins stated that-he had spoken with people from <br /> the State, Mr. Freeland and his engineer, and Mr. Rosen from the Town of <br /> Hillsborough, and they have come up with Plans for the existing water lines and <br /> these have been submitted to the State for approval. <br /> Commissioner Marshall stated her intention to vote against the motion as <br /> she had just received the Planning Board minutes and was not clear about the <br /> context of Planning Board objections. <br /> Commissioner Lloyd moved, seconded by Commissioner -Talker to accept the <br /> plan amendment.
