SDI: No new information. No paper work has been received from Mr. Howard regarding a bond or a check to be placed in escrow, so no CUP has been issued.
KORPI SUBDIVISION: John Perry, representing Mr. Steve Korpi, presented final plans for the Swan Pond subdivision. He offered to call Mr. Korpi with questions that Board members might have. Board members asked him to call to clarify the number of housing units. When reached by phone, Mr. Korpi indicated that he plans to put duplexes on Lots 5, 6,and 7. It was determined that Lot 6 is not large enough for a duplex. Mr. Perry was told to advise Mr. Korpi that the property line for Lot 6 will need to be moved and the final plan will need to be re-drawn. The Board is still awaiting a soil survey map. Mr. Korpi is tentatively on the agenda for January 16, 2006.
