Chair Stephen Robichaud confirms can be approved for minor change with Town Manager? Jim Kupfer, two options for the Board, either a minor amendment or if substantial change would be major and would go through the public hearing process. Minor does not alter the use intensity or mitigation of the regulatory agreement. Intensity of agreement, if feel changed then would have to go through the full process. If minor can move to the Town Manager for signing/approval. Chair Stephen Robichaud confirms seems minor, just one more bedroom. Not considered major. Ray Sexton – asks for clarification of the term intensity. Jim Kupfer, no regulation in ordinance. When discussing simply an increase, impact or use or stipulations that would make it greater than was originally proposed/approve for. 3 Attorney Nickerson, this was entered into in 2022 and the zoning has changed since then.
