LAUREL AVENUE Mr. Carducci appeared before the Board with a map showing a 20' paved road. The Board discussed the Resolution that had been passed by the Town Board which approved "the construction of street improve- ments on a right-of-way paved to a width of 25 feet between the present dead end portion of Laurel Ave- nue" and felt that even though they did not approve of a 25 foot road they would have to go along with the Town Board but requested Mr. Carducci to pave the street the full 25 feet. The applicant said he was willing to go along with whatever the Plan- ning Board wanted. It may be necessary for Mr. Carducci to give an ease- ment to the utility company for the installation of the poles. The applicant is to install a dry well catchbasin and will raise the grade as indicated on the plan. Mr. Bloom had written a letter to Mr. Meighan, Mr. Carducci's Attorney and he requested Mr. Carducci to have Mr. Meighan call him. After further discussion the Board decided that Mr. Carducci bring his final plans into the Town Office in time to arrange for a Public Hearing at the next meeting.
