Other Business (public comment)
Stables Relocation (2nd plan)
Art Colvin, of Horizons Engineering and Agent for CLP Bretton Woods LLC addressed the Board. He said they are coming back with a new location and plan for the stables relocation. He said the square footage has been decreased to 4300 square feet. It is on a different site from the last plan which the Board approved. A different plan for sewage and water will be presented. Mr. Colvin said that Natural Retreats is doing an update of the sewer system for their project and

the stables sewer plan will tie into that. He said they are requesting the Bretton Arms sewage plans from the State since that system was bigger than needed.

Mr. Colvin said the stables will now be located further up the Access Road. The storage building is planned to be 18’ X 48’. There will be a 400 amp service run from the present administration building.

Mr. Bergum noted that the plan is back to 15’ X 30’ for manure storage. Mr. Colvin said there will be a reduced number of horses but they will scale the size to what the Board desires. He will also verify the number of horse during different seasons.

Mr. Colvin said they are aware of the condition of the dry hydrant. With this location of the stables, it will be closer to the hydrant. He said the Fire Department was concerned that there was only one hydrant not two. He said they have a 16” water line and it would be easy to put in a second hydrant.

Chairman Foster asked the Secretary to send a notice of the public hearing to the Fire and Water Departments.

Mr. Bergum asked about the temporary structure for the summer horse near Forest Cottage. He said he needs the total picture. He noted there was no surface for washing the horses, on the plans. Mr. Colvin said that was correct. They would just allow the water to flow into the ground.

Mr. Bergum noted that Fairway Village is an abutter and asked about screening with shrubs. It was offered that there is a good buffer of trees there.

This project will be heard at the Public Hearing on August 1, 2013.

Carl Brooks of Mt. Deception had asked to address the Board in a phone call to the Secretary but was not in attendance. Chairman Foster asked the Secretary to send him a note that the meeting had taken place and if he would like to address the Board to contact the Secretary 15 days in advance of the August 1, 2013 meeting (July 17th).
