Paula Murphy asked when someone comes to the Board with a subdivision for 2-3 house lots, is it a driveway, a road, or a private driveway?
Brian Mycko said if it was 3 houses it would have to be a road. You can only have 2 houses off of a driveway. Even with 3 houses it would need to start as a private road and then the Town would need to vote on accepting it as a public road. It would need to be up to the Town standards also.
